Peaceful stay
This home was in a very remote and peaceful area with a lovely lake view. Communication with host couldn’t have been better- very quick and helpful when we needed it. Bed was comfortable and kitchen was pretty well stocked. Felt like the house could have been cleaner especially with the high cleaning fee. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful, comfortable cabin on a pristine lake!
Our family stayed here as a base camp to explore some of the wonders of the upper peninsula. The cabin is beautiful, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen had everything that we needed. We enjoyed using the kayaks to explore the lake and had a campfire to roast marshmallows on every night. We didn't get out of state fishing licenses because we wouldn't sure how much time we would spend fishing, but I did talk to several fishermen on the lake who said that the fishing was great. Lots of bluegills and bass, and I was told it is a great lake for walleye and northern fishing as well. I certainly saw plenty of fish on our kayaking trips! We were looking for somewhere close to Munising since that is where we planned to spend most of our time. This property was about 40 minutes from Munising which ended up not being a bad drive. It is also 20 minutes from Kitch-iti-kipi which my kids insisted on visiting twice during our five days there! Overall, we loved our experience at this property and would definitely return!

Nice little lake cabin, we did many day trips and also enjoyed kayaking and fires by the lake. Janet is very helpful and responsive to all needs. The only downside was we had no cell service and the wifi was not great- not a huge deal. We had a great week!

Beautiful family vacation
We have stayed twice now at this property and have had amazing stays both times. The cabin is modest and simple but has everything you need. The outside area is so beautiful though that you won't be spending much time inside. The lake is calm and was perfect for our kids (last visit they were 6 and 10). Due to erosion, the steps leading down to the lake were closed on our latest trip, but you could still get into the lake by the dock. We loved relaxing at the table over the lake, fishing off the dock, and having campfires during the day and night. The only reason we're not booking for a third year is that we're doing a bigger friends trip this summer. But we plan on returning here at some point. Also the property manager is very quick and helpful with her responses. I highly recommend staying here!

Happiness on Gooseneck Lake
We just got home from a week at this property. From the time I booked, Janet the owner with her husband Lee, was amazing. Answered questions in a very timely manner and did everything possible to make our stay stress free and totally enjoyable. We even had the opportunity to meet them and enjoy an evening around their fire pit next door. This property sits right on the lake, its quite and so beautiful. The cabin is exactly what it says in the description, no bells and whistles, but has everything you need for an enjoyable, and very comfortable stay. I would return in a heartbeat. A huge thank you to Janet and Lee for sharing this jewel of a cabin on a very special lake.

The cabin was not clean, had very bad odor. The bathroom shower walls had Mold and mildew on them.
Upon arrival the outside of the home look ok. Once we walked in the house had a very bad odor and was not very inviting. The home had fleas and spiders in it. The bathroom shower had mildew and mold. The pull out bed was very dirty with dirt. I would not recommend or stay here again. The outside sand area was infested with ants and termites.

Great and relaxing place to stay and get away from it all. Great fishing lake for my teenage boys. Only half hour to Lake Superior or Lake Michigan. We had a wonderful time getting away from every thing during these trying times of 2020. Host was easy to contact and gave many great suggestions. Definitely would like to visit again.

Slice of heaven in the UP!
We are so happy we came across this cozy cabin on Gooseneck Lake! Location is ideal for taking a day trip to explore various areas of the UP. Although we did venture out a few times, we were so content to stay at the cabin and relax. The lake is beautiful! Many quiet mornings enjoying coffee by lake, calm kayak treks around lake (we brought our kayak), cooling off in the clear, clean lake, and starry nights by the fire are just a few memories we will cherish.

We loved it here, the view is incredible! So beautiful and peaceful and a great place to get away from it all and unplug. Very clean, plenty of linens, comfortable beds, great location. We would definitely recommend and would stay again. We recommend Falling Rock Cafe in Munising for decent coffee drinks and a quick breakfast as well as Aubree's pizza in Marquette. If you're in the area and need a late night bite try Main Street pizza in Manistique.

Perfect quiet getaway
We enjoyed our weekend away at this quiet and cozy cabin! Our kids (8, 6, 6), loved the bunk beds, sandy beach, and shallow depth lake. The cabin was very cutely decorated and had all the necessary kitchen utensils. It rained one day, but the large covered porch and picnic table still gave us enough space to play games and read. The next day was sunny and beautiful and I went for a run around the lake (~3 miles). The owners were great with communication too!

Wonderful Stay!
I cannot say enough good things about our time here! From the beautiful clear lake to the neat fire pit set-up; our time here was perfect! We stayed with 2 kids (5 and 9), and they absolutely loved it. We spent lots of time in the lake, which was perfect for kids their age to swim in. We also took advantage of the dock and taught the kids to fish. They each caught fish! The deck overlooking the lake was probably my favorite part, I loved having my morning coffee there. The owners are so accommodating. Any time I had a question, Janet answered my back quickly with great suggestions. The kitchen was stocked with anything that we needed too, which made cooking easy. We mostly took advantage of the grill and ate at the outside picnic table. We cannot wait to come back, and are planning on booking again for next summer. Thanks again for the wonderful memories!
