Cozied up to the lake, sitting quaintly on its jutting peninsula, is our fully furnished ‘Cedar Retreat’.

Beautiful House and Property
In a nicely secluded neighborhood on the Lake. Very Clean, big deck on the house, updated interior. The lake view is the best. Right on the lake with big windows to see everything. Wonderful to wake up to. Heat was perfect for our stay in November. Will definitely stay here again if we are ever in Gwinn.

All the Boxes Checked!
I was tasked with finding a place to stay for our family to celebrate our son's wedding weekend. I looked for a place that would sleep at least 8 (Cedar Retreat sleeps 10), had adequate space and bathrooms (open floor plan and 3 bathrooms), air conditioning, and a good size kitchen with nice appliances. Like I said it checked all the boxes and exceeded our expectations. The outdoor area is outstanding as well. Seating for 10 people and I know this because were ALL sitting outside star gazing one night. This is when my sister said, "we should make this an annual event!" I knew that Cedar Retreat had a hand in creating a new family tradition. Everyone was comfortable in all areas of the home. Thank you for a wonderful, checked all the boxes kind of stay!

Best Vacation We Have Had
We have been vacationing in the Upper Peninsula for a few years now. Without a doubt I can say that this property has been the best we have stayed at during our vacation. Kelly was great to work with and made it very easy. The house is gorgeous with plenty of room for our group (2 families of 4 and 1 small dog). The property is right in the heart of all of the great places to go see in western (U.P.) Michigan. We spent 8 nights at the property. 3 days we just decided to stay home and enjoy the view, and the lake that was available. We rented a small fishing boat from the local bait shop for the week and was able to dock it to the dock in front of the house. The kids loved catching the bluegill and crappie the lake had to offer as well as swim/kayak. The lake on the backside of the house is not very deep so they had no issue swimming out away from shore. Another perk we didnt know about until we got there was that you have access to both the dock across the street and the one out your back yard. The hot tub was amazing! Especially when it was raining outside. At night, after we all were out in the sun all day it was nice to come back to the house where the central AC made it great for sleeping. The upstairs shower is another nice touch. At night we were able to connect to netflix and watch a movie, while the kids played on their nintendo switch. Really I have no complaints at all. We are already talking about getting this property again next year. Thanks again!!

Amazing Lakefront Getaway
We absolutely loved our week at Cedar Retreat! This cottage was perfect for our family of six (including my senior parents and adult children). We especially enjoyed this gorgeous property's stunning lakefront views, modern furnishings, comfy beds, and roomy interior. During our stay, we had a great time kayaking on the lake, catching fish from this cabin's two docks, and unwinding in the included hot tub. All in all, this was one of the most beautiful, comfortable, and relaxing properties we've ever rented. We're looking forward to returning in the future!

Beautiful Stay
We had a great stay at this cottage on the lake! Caught several fish throughout the stay - pike, a few big bass and sunfish. View from living room was incredible. The hot tub was great. The lake was nice - not a great swimming lake but you can definitely wade in a ways - and our young boys didn’t mind swimming in it! Would definitely return.

Cedar Retreat was a wonderful place for our family of 10 to vacation together. The cabin was very clean and was situated right on the water. The Master Suite was magazine cover worthy! We enjoyed a gorgeous view every day. Our teens had loads of fun fishing and kayaking. We brought 2 kayaks and with the 3 the cabin provided, everyone was busy. Thanks for a great experience!

Perfect Summer Getaway
We loved our stay at the Cedar Retreat and our expectations were exceeded from the moment we pulled up. Picturesque views of the lake and beautifully decorated on the inside. The double-bunk room worked out perfectly for the 10-13yo kids. They spent hours in the kayaks and hot tub. The quiet setting was ideal for relaxing. Docks on both sides of the peninsula provided options for dropping in a fishing line. The upstairs bedroom suite was unbelievable! There's no doubt, we'll look into this property for our next UP vacation. I could stay there for an entire summer. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The rental was very clean tidy well organized and decorated. If you are looking for a place to get away and know that you are taking care of this is it. One word of caution make sure you look at your maps to get there. DO NOT FOLLOW GOOGLE MAPS.

Wonderful place to get away, relax and have fun.
I booked the cottage for a family get together. It was comfortable enough for my elderly in-laws who have mobility issues and enjoyed by our college age kids as well. From any window there is a view of the lake. The deck has lots of lounging space. The hot tub was a bonus. We brought a kayak and used 2 of the 3 that were at the cottage. Bass Lake is perfect for kayaking and birdwatching. We don’t fish, but saw many folks out there catching them. On the rainy day, we hung out inside and played games. There was plenty of room for 6 adults to spread out and relax. Lovely decor, a lot of thoughtful touches, and comfortable beds. It isn’t too far from Marquette for shopping and visiting breweries. I really couldn’t ask for more. I miss being at Cedar Retreat already. We all want to return. I have added this place to my favorites for sure.
