Cozy, clean, nicely decorated cottage! Beds are comfy. Itâs just right for the 3 of us and our pup (that weâve never allowed on furniture). Will definitely return!
Quaint, comfortable cottage perfect for the 3 of us
This place was clean, comfortable, and decorated nicely! We loved that we could have our dog for a small extra fee. She doesnât get on the furniture. We will definitely be renting again!
Perfect place for a birthday/spa weekend. Cottage was clean. Well appointed. Close to Gladwin and Riverwalk Place. Highly recommend the Peppermill restaurant for breakfast and the Riverwalk Grill for dinner. The Oasis spa was wonderful.
Water smells awful. Bathroom way too small, if youâre over 5â8â 160 lbs forget it. No extra blankets/pillows. Lack of cleaning supplies. Poor lighting except the very small bathroom. Beautiful view of the lake, although no access, so forget using the kayaks. Nice supply of dry firewood. Lack of basic amenities.
Check in process was extremely professional with constant communication leading up to my stay. Place was virtually like a fully remodeled modern house with old cabin like touches. Nice quiet backyard with nice view of the lake.
The cabin is beautiful, in a great location, and very well maintained. The access to water is a little more convoluted than the listing or pictures suggest, especially since the little outlet of lake is stagnant (not the owners fault at all). Unfortunately, the shower handle for hot water broke during our stay, leaving us with no way to bathe which was unfortunate. The management company and host did respond promptly, but it was frustrating to not be able to shower.
Home is NOT on Pratt Lake. Lake picture is NOT accurate! First time I have ever felt scammed by VRBO listing. No access other than pubic launch. Neighbor has dammed inlet and it is now nothing more than a muck, leaf filled tiny pond.
Interior upgrades of home are very nice. Interior listing and pictures are accurate.
BRING LOTS OF DRINKING WATER ⊠water is not drinkable and smells very, very strong of sulfur (rotten eggs)! Gladwin area is nice highly recommend Merry Hearted Cidery.
Very well stocked with everything needed to cook and grill. Nice place. Nice fire pit. Quiet neighborhood. Pretty lake. We loved kayaking the lake. Very clean and serene. Owner of the management company was very professional and nice.
The cottage was sparkling clean upon our arrival with beautiful furnishings and new appliances! We were pleasantly surprised that we did not find one bug in the cottage throughout our entire stay During our stay, the canal was dried up which made it difficult to use the kayaks, but that's on Mother Nature. There were plenty of extra blankets and a cute electric fireplace - the TV's firestick made it easy to log in to our streaming services too. The Wi-Fi was strong and we never had an issue with cellular service when connected. The cottage is near an amazing ice cream parlor which was a family favorite. It's safe to say we will be staying here again!
Property was beautiful and clean. Kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. Was sent a nice text beforehand summarizing everything you might need or can expect before checking in which was helpful. Really enjoyed our stay.
I needed a last minute getaway with my family and this was the perfect retreat. The kids loved playing in the sand at the property and swimming at the little beach around the corner. It is a cozy little cottage but served our needs perfectly. Was perfect for a few days to getaway from lifeâs hustle and bustle and reconnect as a family.
The view is beautiful! We went for a relaxing time away - and this we got, for sure.
We also learned what some of the buzz words meant and to really look at the pictures, in addition to reading reviews. The floor was sandy, as a review stated. The throw blankets smelled like dog. Most importantly - understand it is SMALL. To get two people in the one bed, one must climb over as there is no room to walk around the bed (we are in our late 60's and it was not ideal). The bathroom is nice, but really small...REALLY SMALL. Nice kitchen. Living room is too full of furniture.
We won't hesitate to use the management agency again - they were a joy to deal with. And we truly enjoyed our time away to celebrate 31 years of marriage - but we will not return to Pratt Lake in this cabin.
