Enchanting, Romantic Lakefront Cottage, Close to Frankenmuth
Adorable cottage on coveted Murphy Lake. Why go north when you can be close to home, work & play from home, or any commute. 15-20 minutes from Frankenmuth. Great fishing, on all sports lake. Peaceful setting, open floor plan.

Beautiful Cottage on the Lake!
The house was very clean and inviting with fun furniture and a great view! Sherry and Mark left a lovely note of welcome and a delicious box of local chocolates. That was very sweet but, my favorite part was the dog accessories including dog bowls and sheets so our pups could sit with us on the furniture! a good time was had by all.

A Lovely Cottage on the Lake!
My husband and I stayed 2 nights at the cottage and would have loved to have stayed longer if time had permitted us on our travels through Michigan from Florida! The cottage was very clean and we felt welcomed by the personal note and chocolates left by the owners. Everything we could have needed and more was supplied in the cottage. The weather was chilly so we enjoyed using the fire pit on the patio area in the evening. Sitting outside and looking out over the lake in the cool, crisp mornings and listening to the sounds of nature was so beautiful and refreshing! We took a daytrip into nearby Frankenmuth for some shopping and a chicken dinner at Zehnder's which was also fun. Communication with the owners was very easy. They were very friendly available to answer any questions we had. We hope to make it back for a longer stay at this lovely cottage on the lake in the future!

Great little romantic getaway
Despite the not so great weather while we were there, we were still able to enjoy our stay there. Our little weekend away was cozy and relaxing and the little touches around the house were appreciated. The hosts were very responsive as well.

Awesome trip
Great trip. Very organized property. Great view of lake, and convenient location to Millington, Vassar, and Frankenmuth.
Lots of switches in cabin, no clue what they all went to.

Best Vacation Ever
The cottage was by far the best that we ever rented. We would definitely rent it again. The cottage was spotless and comfortable. Appliances appeared to be brand new. The cottage was well lit at night. Air conditioning worked perfect on hot days. Plenty of windows and doors to open during cool evenings.
Fishing using the row boat and trolling motor in Lake Murphy was so much fun. I caught Northern Pike, large mouth bass, sunfish and blue gill. We had a great breakfast at McPherson and a delicious lunch in Frankenmuth.

Lake Cabin
Great property. Very secluded with a couple close neighbors, but almost like having the lake to yourself. Wish we had a longer stay to enjoy it more. Very clean, and helpful owners.
