Holiday rentals with a kayak in Clare County

My family and I had a great experience at Connie's lake house. It felt like we were at a resort. We did have some issue at first with the hot tub heating as mentioned by others (possibly user error), but after contacting Connie she responded right away and reset the thermostat. The back deck was beautiful and the layout of the house with numerous bay windows offered perfect views of the lake and sunset. The neighborhood is also great to walk around with very friendly people and there was even a very small petting zoo owned and maintained by one of the neighbors which was fun for the kids. Overall I would highly recommend!

What a peaceful stay on Lake 13! We enjoyed the beautiful sunset and sitting by the fire. Just what we needed to recharge!

Would definitely stay here again. It was beautifully decorated and very relaxing.

Perfect little spot, nice views. Would love to check it out in the summer

Our stay in this cute little cabin was very enjoyable. It is clean and cozy. the bed was very comfortable. It has everything required for some rest and relaxation. Even our dogs approved. 🐾

We loved our stay here! The house was very nice and clean. It was a great visit with fishing, bonfires, kayaking and cornhole! Coffee on the porch with a view of the lake was very enjoyable.

This was our first time using Air BNB and Carol’s home exceeded all of our expectations! She was super responsive to our questions. Check in and out was very easy. She had so many amenities that are often forgotten when staying the night away from home. Loved the location! Wish we had more time to spend here!

We had a great weekend spending it at the Captains Quarters! Host is very responsive and helpful to our call when needed. There isn't any AC so needing to keep the windows open at night was hard because we didn't want to be loud for the other cottages. Overall our experience was great and would come back to stay again.

This cottage is adorable! We brought our dog & he felt right at home immediately. There was a dog feeding station preset. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the firepit was perfect for making our hobo pies and sandwiches! Our dog loved exploring the back yard and walking up and down the street. We also took him swimming at the State Park beach. The welcome book gave us plenty of good information. We stopped off and enjoyed Scooter's Airport Bar & Tippy Canoe as well. And we ate from the Pizza Bar at Trails End. We highly recommend this cabin!! Thanks, Hector!!

Was a nice cabin feeling cottage. Inside was clean and comfortable. Outside deck and furniture could use a power wash but was usable. Fishing was excellant, kept grandson entertained. Loved the kayaks that were available. House stayed cool even though it was near 90° outside. Portable fans were adequate. Would stay again.

Cute little cabin! We had our first mini getaway with our four month old and we enjoyed hanging out on the patio and utilizing the full kitchen! Couch was great to lounge in as it felt brand new. We also used the propane grill which was a nice touch to utilize the outdoor amenities while we cooked lunch!

The Blue Gill Cottage was a beautiful place to spend Memorial Day weekend with our family! The location is so peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed the beautiful lakefront view, kayaking and fishing during the day and bonfires at night! Barbara was a wonderful host who was quick to respond with any questions we had. We highly recommend! We plan on many more visits in the future!

Our stay was shorter than we'd like since was business trip and only got to sleep there for the most part. But the time we spent was peaceful and refreshing would like to book again for a getaway.

The cabin was very clean and homely was very satisfied with the amities and the surrounding area was very quiet.Nichole was a great host.

We really enjoyed our stay, the place is for those looking for peace, tranquility and rest! The cabin is beautiful, perfect, just like the ones I saw in the movies when I was a child! The lake is beautiful, my husband had fun fishing and rowing the boat. I highly recommend it for spending some quality time.

The Airbnb was perfect for our mother, daughters weekend get away. It was clean and had everything we needed. The lake and outdoor spaces are very nice. Deanna was friendly and quick to respond. I highly recommend and would definitely book again.

My family and I very much enjoyed our Labor Day weekend at Debra's Cabin. The cabin is located in a quaint neighborhood on Long Lake. The privacy had us feeling as if we were "secluded up North". Debra welcomed me in person upon arrival and even offered to assist with my move in. I graciously declined as I was on a time constraint, but appreciated the offer. The Cabin was very clean with all described amenities in great working order; you could tell that she takes great care of this gem. The location was a perfect place to unwind and reconnect with family; we enjoyed morning coffee on the deck, reading a book in the sun on the dock and telling stories by the campfire. Furthermore, I was able to dock my fishing boat at the private dock and make use of the lake for fishing and recreational boat rides. This Cabin is a great value and well worth the stay. We will surely come back! Thank you Debra!

Great little cabin! Homey and inviting. Nice views and well priced. Everything you’ll need is there for a little getaway. Mardi was responsive and even let us check out later even when we didn’t ask for that! Pretty cool place. Very chill. Only thing we didn’t really care about was for was the moth ball smell as soon as we walked in. Great place overall! Would stay again.

I stayed at Mariann's lake house for a month while working remotely. It was gorgeous. The lake is beautiful and remote. Mariann is an excellent host and made sure I had everything I needed for my stay, which was already provided in the house. I'd recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back!

This was our second stay at Cathy's Cabin. As always the cabin was clean and welcoming, just put the cooler contents in the fridge and begin enjoying the stay. I enjoy this lake. It reminds me very much of my grandparents lake cottage. Late May is still cool weather in Michigan and Cathy's brother made a special effort to get the pontoon boat ready for us. We enjoyed being out on the water and trying our hands at fishing. I caught a northern pike at the north end of the lake, Khi caught some small walleye right off the dock. For guests in the warmer weather there is every kind of summertime toys imaginable in the shed, kayaks etc... We would definitely look forward to returning to Cathy's Cabin again.

Our family felt so relaxed staying at the cabin! Everything was clean and we loved the decor! Views were great, everything was perfect for a weekend getaway with the family!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Yellow Door Lodge! The place is beautifully designed — cozy, stylish, and thoughtfully put together in every corner. It felt like a perfect home away from home. Rex was incredibly responsive and went out of his way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. His warm hospitality truly made a difference and added to the overall experience. Our dog, Puntu, had a great time too — it’s such a pet-friendly spot! He enjoyed exploring and relaxing just as much as we did. The lakeside area was a highlight. We spent some peaceful time there soaking in the view, and it added to the whole relaxing vibe of the trip. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, well-designed getaway with great hosts!

Mike was a kind host and the view was incredible. The lower deck was so relaxing with lots of chairs, shade and kayaks for adventure.

My family stayed here for a weekend in October while we visited some relatives in the area. We came in from out of state and the property was so nice. Hector was very communicative and responded right away to any questions. There was plenty of room in the house and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you may need. The beach and lake were amazing, and they have everything you can imagine. Our kids really enjoyed it, and loved fishing off the dock too. The space was clean and it fit our family nicely. I will say that the beds are not the most comfortable, but they were fine for the most part. The views were breathtaking, and it was very serene and quiet. We will definitely be staying here again!
