About this house rental
Quaint lake cottage located on a channel connecting to Magician Lake in Sister Lakes, Michigan. The property is located at the mouth of Polk Channel, a mile-long waterway excavated in the 1950's, running from Magician Lake through Viewpoint Beach...surrounded by pines and hardwoods that have been growing for a century or more. The cottage is perfect for a family vacation, or couples trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. If in the area, please contact for a tour. Fish off the dock, swim and boat on the lake. Wi-Fi available. Air Conditioned.
The property is perfect for an autumn get-a-way. Enjoy a campfire on a cool fall evening, kayak the mile-long Polk channel, walk through the woods to view the colorful fall leaves, participate in the many wine-tasting activities sponsored by local wineries, shop in quaint, but bustling, Dowagiac, attend a University of Notre Dame football game in South Bend, IN, carve a jack-lantern from a pumpkin provided by Viewpoint Beach Resort management! The cottage is heated; you will be warm and cozy on a cold night after a busy, fun fall day in the country.
We have three cottages next to each other... Frog Hollow, Turtle Cove and Herons Nest...perfect for a group retreat, a reunion or a get-a-way with a group of friends!
Sleeps 8. Three-night minimum. ** NO High School Graduation parties!**
Experience a real American summer and autumn in the country!

We had a wonderful stay at Turtle Cove and on Magician lake! The house was perfect for our two families. Hilda was lovely and accommodating as always! The property is beautiful and we have so much fun hanging out in the yard and on the lake. We always enjoy our stay here! We will be back next year!

Good location on the channel with boat dock. I liked having the pontoon delivered there for us. Hostess knew we were getting in late and turned the lights on for us which was very welcoming. I woukd stay here again!

Always enjoy spending time on Magician Lake. It's beautiful and never over crowded. We always rent the pontoon boat to go on sandbar or fishing. Love to sit by the bonfire at night.
4.8
Great location on the channel which the kids enjoyed playing in. Docks were a bit in need of repair. A/C units worked great to cool the house- but very loud at night. Owner very responsive and friendly. Overall a great weekend getaway for the price.

The property is well equipped and on a quiet street. Check in was easy as well as checkout. Plenty of seating and comfy beds. Perfect for families with big kids or small.

The manager was so easy to communicate with, and came out several times when we had questions. Went above and beyond. Loved fishing out on the back deck and the lake was clean and great for swimming.

House was perfect for our family 4th holiday. The channel was fun to explore with our kayaks. The backyard and deck were wonderful for relaxing. And having access to the lake was a nice bonus. Wonderful and relaxing views.
Owners were very responsive. Everything we hoped for and more!

Nice to watch the lake "wake up" in the morning.

Repeat customer of Hilda given how well these properties are run. She is the best -- very responsive and always on top of any issues we may have had. I highly recommend the two properties we stayed in.

Great location and cozy backyard
We had a lot of fun visiting Magician lake at Turtle Cove house. The house and property were good overall. Being on the channel protected us from the wind and the backyard felt cozy and relaxing. Camp fire pit was nice and there was a good amount of adirondack chairs to sit on. We kept a boat and a jetski in the channel, but it looked pretty shallow in spots. The house was fairly clean, but there were some active spider webs in the kitchen and one of the air conditioners had a funny smell coming out of it. The owner was very responsive and answered questions quickly.

Return to Turtle Cove at Magician Lake
We had a wonderful time on our return trip!!
Our boys had a great time fishing, swimming. and boating on the pontoon on Lake Magician!
The cabin felt like our home away from home!
Thank you Cynthia and Franz!

Peaceful Location
The property is in a nice location. It’s away from the business of the lake and sits in a nice quiet part of the channel. Our only complaint was the musty smell in the cabin. We diffused oils and used candles to cover it up!

We had a fantastic stay at turtle cove! It was a beautiful cottage and very clean!
Thank you so much!!

The property was as portrayed in photos. Owner informed us the day before we were to arrive that the cabin would not be cleaned and ready for us until 3 hours after our reservation check in time. This was quite an inconvenience. The cabin was also very musty smelling. We had to wash everything when we arrived back to our own home. A part of the floor was so soft due to moisture that we feared it might collapse.

Good experience overall. Much noise due to recent tornado clean up. Wish the screen doors were easier to use.

Visit with grandchildren
We stayed at the cabin while we visited family. Due to a recent storm many trees had fallen, and we had a few technical issues with the property. The management immediately responded to our concerns.

Sister Lake is only 2 hours from Chicago, so it made for a nice, easy long weekend get away. The property was nice and clean. The back yard butted up against an offshoot of the lake, which provided gorgeous views for my morning coffee and reading. The swimming dock was just across the street from the house, making it easy to run back and forth when we wanted food/drinks/bathroom. Really the only complaint my group had was having to bring our own sheets, towels, and paper goods (like toilet paper and paper towels). This may be a holdover from covid, but if not, I’d change this policy. I’ve never been to a house rental that required that and it took so much extra room in the car having to pack those extra items.
