Weekend getaway
The location is quiet and private.There are 5 cottages and a main house so you have some privacy. The cottages are nice and have all your necessities. The view of the lake is beautiful! We all enjoyed our stay at Elemental on beautiful Shag Lake! Our host George was helpful and communication was perfect!

Such a fantastic location!
This is not a luxury experience. It's clean, it's beautiful outdoors, but there's nowhere comfortable to sit inside or out. Bring your best lawn chair or hammock, and you won't want to budge. Plenty to do all day nearby, and there is a comfortable bed and a shower and shared hot tub. Well water, but again,it's all about the location. a comfortable bed

On a beautiful lake...
The cabins are rustic - that part is fine. The problem is that they are dirty. Dust bunnies on floor, filthy stained shower and the shower liner was so disgusting we went and bought a new one along with some bleach

Quick response to questions
When we arrived there was no bed in the bedroom. They responded quickly with a new mattress and box springs. Picnic table only had one side for seating. Only two towels for 4 days. The general apperance of the cottage area was ok. All in all an ok visit.

Sweet little Cabin
We loved our stay at this lakeside cottage. We used it mostly for a home base but fishing off the dock/boats in the mornings & evenings was lovely. We had an issue with our fridge not being cool the first night, and George bought our ice for our coolers and offered us more coolers of his if needed. Super attentive and kind host! By the morning our fridge was fine and working great. As listed, there’s enough kitchenware for basic things but bc we went a little all out for a few meals we needed to measure things with our hearts and get creative as there wasn’t steak knives or measuring utensils, etc, but otherwise we really did have everything we’d need. Short drive to Marquette & not a bad drive to Munising. Our neighbors were nice. Didn’t use the hot tub but enjoyed the aluminum boats and grill. Would stay again.

Elemental Resort, Shag Lake
There are many things to appreciate about this property; the lovely lake, being able to bring the dogs, the lovely area. There were things that needed attention, small things that made for detailing the place with more charm and needed things. I brought them up to our host George. He was very willing and thoughtful to attend to them. All and all the property is comfortable. The host is a nice man.

Enjoyed our stay!
We had a great time. The cabin was clean and a/c worked wonderfully the one day we needed it. Only complaints were the cabin smelled a bit musty and the water smelled like sulfur. Bring your own drinking water and leave the a/c on “dry” and you will have a great place for the price.

Clean and comfortable, would stay again, though the service fee’s were high, just another way for the rental agency to get more money from us customers!!

Heaven on Earth.
You cannot pick a more beautiful spot to vacation in Upper Peninsula. The location is perfect, not too far from Marquette or Ishpeming. The cabins are clean and have had some modern upgrades. And just steps away from Shag Lake which you can just walk down the steps and jump right off the dock and into the clean. Pretty much, . Just Perfect.

Sled trip
We had some issues with the heat. The furnace never turned on and the electric heaters were not adequate. We did get in little late but by the time we realized the heat was insufficient it was too late. Had the furnace functioned I'm sure this could be a better place to stay. Please check on the furnace. Other than that the place met our needs.

The cabins are nicely Re modeled as they say and the property is right on a very nice lake for all sorts of fun. Cabins are somewhat close together yet it still felt private.
