Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
This lake-front, 2-bedroom cottage sits directly on the water in Commerce Charter Township, offering a cozy, home-like retreat rather than a traditional hotel stay. It's set up as a private waterfront getaway with sleeping space for a group, combining a quiet lake setting with easy access to nearby dining and attractions.
Rooms & Sleeping Space
The cottage offers two bedrooms configured with a king bed, a queen bed, and a bunk bed, making it suitable for families or small groups traveling together. The layout is designed as a full home-away-from-home rather than individual hotel rooms.
Amenities
In-unit amenities include a full kitchen with oven, stove, and microwave for self-catering, plus air conditioning, heating, cable TV, free Wi-Fi, an ironing board, and a smoke-free interior. An outdoor grill and free parking round out the practical conveniences for a relaxed lakeside stay.
Recreation & Outdoor Activities
The property's standout feature is direct lake access, with kayaks, a peddle boat, and a private dock for fishing all available on site. Guests can also enjoy outdoor games, swimming, and, depending on season, hunting in the surrounding area, making this a strong choice for outdoor-focused stays.
Location & Dining
Commerce Charter Township places guests within a couple of miles of casual dining options like The Village Grill, Filling Station, Blue Cactus Cantina, and Blue Mango Thai, with additional restaurants such as CRAVEIT 365, Benstein Grille, and CJ's Brewing Company a short drive away. Local landmarks include the Franklin Cider Mill and Oakland Hills Country Club, and area attractions such as Kensington Mills Falls Mini Golf, Paradise Park, Putting Edge Novi, and Waterford Oaks Waterpark are all within reach.
Best for
This cottage is best suited to families or small groups seeking a relaxed, self-catered lake vacation, thanks to its two bedrooms, full kitchen, and on-site kayaks, peddle boat, and fishing dock. It also appeals to outdoor enthusiasts drawn to the waterfront setting and nearby attractions like mini golf and a waterpark.
Travel tips
Having a car is recommended, as most restaurants and attractions are a short drive of one to six miles away, and the nearest major airports (Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County and Bishop International) are both roughly 45 kilometers off. Bring your own fishing gear and swimwear to make full use of the dock, kayaks, and peddle boat, and consider timing visits to Waterford Oaks Waterpark or Kensington Mills Falls Mini Golf for warmer months.
