About this cottage rental

Come enjoy our cottage nestled in the Manistee National Forest on the sunny north shore of upper Hamlin Lake. The cottage is only 13 years old with like new furnishings and is very neat, CLEAN, and disinfected after/before each guest. You will enjoy a panoramic view of the entire upper lake and awesome sunsets over the dunes right from shore. Fishing is great right off the 40 foot dock which is also available to tie up your boat. Boating, swimming, skiing, hiking, wine tasting, and other fun activities are waiting just for you! There is also a shared lakeside firepit for your use. Lake Michigan is minutes away for an afternoon picnic or swim. Golfing at some of the state's finest courses is close by. Or, for those who like more physical activity, bring your bikes for riding on the miles of trails in the National Forest. If you prefer peace and quiet, bring a good book to read while sipping on your favorite beverage in a provided lounge chair by the lake! If you are looking for 2 cottages in close proximity, this cottage sleeps 2-3 and The Shadows 2 on Hamlin Lake sleeps 2 comfortably! (See separate VRBO listing #367496) Great for friends and/or families who like to vacation together but sleep/stay in different quarters. It all awaits you at The Shadows on Hamlin Lake. We live on the property, adjacent to this cottage which is approximately 200 feet from the waters edge. The last 5 miles of your journey to our cottage will be on a gravel road where you will see only nature at it’s finest, no houses or street lights. Age requirement for staying at our cottages is 16 years and up.

Even without our pontoon boat it would've been a lovely stay. Squeaky clean 1/1 cottage on beautiful (BIG!) Hamlin Lake with wonderful hosts Deb and Mark. We're foodies and the kitchen was not lacking, plus the weber LP grill was brand new. Dock was perfect for our boat. Please do NOT trust your google maps or waze. Read Deb's easy to follow directions on reaching the place. We shall return!

A last minute trip and found this little jewel of a cabin. The setting is a glorious lake front property; pick your spot to relax in the shade or sun, or on one of the two docks. If the weather and water were warm this would be a wonderful place for swimming/floating in the lake. The cabin is great for two people (queen bed though, a king-sized bed would be perfect!). A larger deck at the entrance with four chairs/table and a smaller deck off the living room that overlooks the lake and also the owner's home (off to the left, did not see the owners much, we still felt we had privacy). There is a second cabin on the property right at the lake, but isn't visible from the deck. 3 fishermen stayed in that cabin and we didn't see/hear them much at all. Owners are so helpful, super nice. The area was expecting possible thunderstorms/tornadoes and they were very attentive, making sure they could alert us overnight to get us to the basement/garage. This is a somewhat remote location (which we wanted). The directions were exceptional - you are in a forested area, about 5 1/2 miles of graded gravel road to get to the property. Easy to drive in car/SUV/van. Location is so wonderfully quiet and peaceful. Water filtration system for the cabin is great - water tasted fine, great water pressure in shower. Super clean, no bugs. A red fox visits the cabin/deck; we don't feed wildlife, but it was looking for handouts. Photos are accurate. Exceptional hosts. Would stay again.

Great view of the lake. Weather was crummy or we would have used the lake access for kayak and fishing. Everything was perfectly clean. Great communication with the host. We cooked using the oven multiple times and we're generally lazy around the cottage. The ONLY downside for US might be a plus for OTHERS: the bed is quite firm. We slept very poorly. Everything else was wonderful. As long as you can handle a firm bed you will love this place!
