Fife Lake Cabin

luv2vacation (Holt, Michigan, USA)
Review submitted: July 19, 2011   Date of arrival: July 12, 2011

Loved the cabin! Description and pictures were very accurate. Very clean. Owners were wonderful in providing all the information about the area and where we could find activities such kayaking,canoeing,tubing...plus more. Traverse City only a short 20 min drive. Rented a ski boat at a boat rental at the Holiday Inn in Traverse City to go tubing. Great rates compared to others in area.Great place to get away from the city life. Quiet and peaceful. Cabin on hill with dock nearby for swimming and sunbathing. Neat train track following lake edge which you can walk to the small downtown. Great for all ages, depending on what you want to do! Would go back again!!!

Total relaxation!

Absolutely fantastic! The cottage was exceptional in every way, total comfort and seclusion. Everyone we met in Fife Lake were so kind and welcoming, it was hard to leave. Doing business over the internet with the owners was done with zero hassle or red tape. One e-mail exchange and the deal was set. Sooo simple! I truly can't say enough at how pleased we were. Felt guilty for not taking the kids, but it was our getaway weekend and we had such a good time, we plan to make it a ritual.
