Love the Log, Log Lake
I stayed at the Quinn cottage for 4 weeks, a quaint cottage on an awesome spring fed no wake lake. A great mixture of old cottage architecture and modern convenience. The cottage is fully stocked with almost everything I needed. (I bought a pie plate to make my son a peach blueberry birthday pie!) The bedding was exceptional, the beds very comfortable. As wonderful as the cottage is, I LOVE the lake! The kayaks provided are fantastic and the cool of the water always refreshing even on the hottest summer day. I swam and kayaked every day. When my son and his girlfriend visited, the 3 of us swam across the lake. One of the cleanest, clearest nicest bodies of water I've every swam in. I enjoyed the property so much that I went on only a couple of day trips, I didn't want to leave the lake. Highly recommended.

Charming, adorable and relaxing
The Quinn cabin was amazing!! We rented this cabin for a few days before the craziness of back to school happened. When we arrived the cabin was so clean and had so many extra touches it felt like home. The outside lake and dock were fantastic for my teenagers. They enjoyed the boat and kayaks most of all! I enjoyed sitting by the fire in the evening roasting marshmallows. From the extremely comfortable beds, to the record player with speaker and Taylor Swift. We took a day and explored Sleeping bear dunes, but were always grateful to come back to this adorable cabin at night. We felt very safe at this location and couldn’t of had a more enjoyable time. Thank you for allowing us to stay at this charming cabin!!

Lovely cabin and location!
We had a great time at Quinn Cabin. It was so clean and adorable. Tons of little touches that made you feel at home. The lake and neighborhood was so quiet and relaxing. Our 4 year old loved the lake. It was shallow and sandy - perfect for swimming. Loved that we didn’t have to lug our pack and play with us for our 4 month old, as there were 2 in the cabin for our use. Really was a cute little place with anything you might need. We’d definitely stay again and probably will! Thank you!

A relaxing long weekend
This cabin was the perfect place to rest, relax, and remember how great it is to let the rest of the world pass by, if only for a little while. Modern updates gives the comfort of home while still maintaining that rustic feel. The use of several watercraft and an ample supply of firewood helped make the stay even more enjoyable. Situated a long way down a private road, Quinn cabin is very peaceful, and the neighborhood was delightfully quiet during our stay. Still, there is a large grocery store about five minutes away, and a kitchen that is fully functional and well stocked with cooking gear, so guests need not pack the better part of their kitchen for this vacation. We would gladly stay here again, in fact we may just book that next trip soon.

Quinn cabin
It was a nice area to sit by the lake and unwind. My husband enjoyed all the close golf course. My friend who has a 1 year old enjoyed there was grocery stores near by just in case if we ran out of supplies. Love that there was water activities at the cottage for us to use. It was my definition of a cottage vacation.

We weren’t on vacation but it felt like we were. Peaceful morning kayaking and coffee by the lakeside; evening walks and wine. Remote work in between. Thankful to have escaped the Texas heat for a few days of bliss at this cozy and quiet lakeside setting.

Very Clean
The house is small and quaint. The decor is cute with a little Scandinavian flare. The bedrooms are large enough, but on the small side, especially the second one. The lake view is amazing, and the dock and chairs by the fire pit are perfect for relaxing in the evening. Our stay was for a family members funeral, so that alone quiet time was well needed. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the coffee bar was outstanding! Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us!
