My husband and I stayed here in January for two days! It was cold and snowy and this cottage was perfect for the cozy evenings inside! Plus it was the perfect size for just the two of us! Very clean and had all the amenities we needed! Awesome view of the lake and a close drive to downtown Traverse City! We would definitely stay here again! The host had great communication and was friendly!

Cozy, clean and comfy cottage. We had a great stay. Right on the lake. The views are breathtaking. We did a lot of kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing.Wish the cottage had a water softener though. Also, would be nice to have sharper knives or a knife sharpener, and a grill cleaning brush. Other than that, the place is fully stocked.

Stayed for a few days, in from Texas.

Check in was a breeze. Property was as billed from ads. We arrived around Thanksgiving, it began to snow and the views were made even more spectacular. Would rent again and recommend to those looking for something cozy on the water or anything Traverse City

Family Vacation

We had a great time at Silver lake. The dock and beach access were wonderful! Our family loved it. The house had everything we needed for a lovely home away from home. We have two little kids, so we didn't need a lot of space. It might be a tight squeeze with more then 2 adults. It was clean and well maintained.

Comfortable. Clean. Trundle in second bedroom not really comfortable for adult. Wonder if regular size bed would fit in there- but, it was OK.
