Overall great stay
The property was very nice, vintage little home. Lots to like and appreciate. Things of note: the home was closer to a busy road than I had assumed. It was still quiet inside. The only lake access nearby is a fire lane across the street. It's rocky and shallow there, so not great for fishing. The house had window air units that had trouble keeping up on our hottest days. The sunroom bedroom got pretty warm. Overall, we had a really great stay. The communication with Nick was great and always swift.

Good location for a long weekend
Enjoyed being close to lakes. We kayak at little paw paw lake twice. Nice clean home close to stores and restaurants. Had an issue with leak from a storm and Nick sent someone over right away to inspect. It was very important to us that we can bring our dog and Nick is very accommodating thank you Nick.

Historic Coloma Cottage
Nick's warm welcome and recommendations were helpful and made us feel at home. We were also just comfortable beyond expectation at the cottage, which was desperately needed after all the dune hiking. The beds and seating arrangements were perfect, everything was clean, the yard was open and beautifully kept, and included an easy fire pit. We used it to roast hot dogs and marshmallows our first night there. We were also able to enjoy a long sit on the porch with our dog, thanks to a friendly-looking doggie safety gate. Nick provided access to inflatable kayaks, paddles, and life preservers, which we used on Paw Paw Lake. We would love to come and stay again.
