This cottage was super cute and the location was great. It was almost right between the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Frankfort. There is a canoe rental place just down the road. The cottage was super clean and comfortable. Jerry was very friendly, responsive and helpful with suggestions and tips for the area. We would definitely stay here again.

The cabin was so beautiful and in such an awesome location. We loved Peterson Beach which is right down the street. The cabin was very clean and updated. It had everything we were looking for. We really enjoyed our stay and the host was very responsive and even let us come in earlier than expected so it worked out perfectly! Thank you so much!

This place is the perfect up north stay thats located close to a lot of amazing sights and fun cities. We felt secluded but not far from anything at the same time. Everything was clean, seemed very recently undated, and the owner was quick to communicate. 10/10 would definitely stay here again

What a lovely cabin for our visit to Sleeping Bear! Everything we had read online about the cabin is correct-- clean, updated and perfectly located. This may well be one of the most well appointed units we have ever rented. The host is friendly, helpful and quick to respond to questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My favorite part of Cozy Cottage is all of the windows. Even inside, you are surrounded by woods. We hope to return!

Great stay

We enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage. The location was convenient to Sleeping Bear Dunes and local towns. We hiked, went beachcombing and shopping In Frankfort, Empire and Glen Arbor. The cottage had one of the best supplied kitchens of all the VRBOs we've stayed inand was very clean on our arrival. Very responsive host. Highly recommended.
