Came up for a family reunion. Price/size/location were perfect for our family and dog. Beautiful views. Was aware of lack of wifi but wish we would have known about minimal cell reception as well.

Small family place with great views
Awesome lake view with beautiful sunsets. Secluded property that forces you off electronic devices (no WiFi) and we had great time playing board games. Excellent host that cares about people and your experience. Definitely worth the price.

GREAT place
It is a very cozy homey cottage. The host and his wife are very nice and accommodating. The beds are super comfortable and the sunsets are amazing. Have done a fishing vacation, at many different locations, for many years but this is by far the best place ever! The fishing wasn't great, but so far this year fishing isn't great any where, but the place was so nice that didn't even matter! Will definitely be back next year!!

Cozy
Matt was very helpful was a little tricky parking and carrying everything down and up the stairs, but we were very grateful to get out of the hustle and relax. Great granddaughter caught lots of bluegills and we used the kayaks to go swimming very fun

Ice fishing weekend
The Cabin was great for our needs, we spent a weekend ice fishing on the lake. The cabin was a nice retreat to warm up with some soups for lunch and relax at night. It took us awhile to find the fish but ended up limiting out our second day. Thanks for the great weekend escape!

Tranquility
We were celebrating an anniversary. The weekend was very peaceful. The first night it rained and we put a puzzle together. Enjoyed a bonfire the second night. We loved watching the geese and the goslings. The king bed was fabulous and the cottage had my favorite pillow. Couldnt ask for a nicer place.

A nice option for visiting Duck Lake
For $1000/week I assumed it had WiFi, not the case. In addition, for the price it does not have a water softener system so the water coming out of any faucet smelled awful. Matt assured us the water was safe to drink however he was quick to bring us a Britta water filter. The deck furniture needed a lot of cleaning, we didn’t sit on any of it. My wife trimmed the bushes so we could park off the road a get out of our vehicle. The dock was covered in geese poop so we didn’t go on it. The location of the property was great for us as we were spending time and golfing with friends at Duck Lake. Matt was very accommodating for changing our checkin and checkout dates with no extra charges

1st time in Albion
Spoke with the owner a week before. He assured us he wanted us to have a great and relaxed time; to consider his cottage as a our second home and not hesitate to call him if we needed anything. Matt also told us the highlighted places to visit. He was correct on all accounts. My grandchildren 1-6 years loved the water, the games, firepit and the kayaks, awed by all the knick/knacks. Our family and friends impressed how well stocked with amneties and the cleanliness. Everyone thought the cottage layout, the lakefront and dock had an easy flow to move around, the landscape and lake was quite pleasing. We are anxious to come back and tentatively in our minds already planning for a fall trip. This is a gem of a place!!!
