Fall get away
This is the nicest cottage. Tucked away and very private and peaceful. Host was easy to contact and gave us great advice on what to bring. Would rent this for sure again!! Great hideaway and suggest it for Fall as well. The Island was great to see without the hussle and bussle of summer!!

a perfect family getaway
We enjoyed our stay at Cedar Cottage so much that we are already planning for next year. Our grown family of 6 enjoyed making s'mores at the fire pit and played ball in the spacious yard. This cottage is special because we could bring our puppy and take him to the beach nearby. We rented a golf cart to drive into town, but even without the cart the location of the cottage provides proximity to town, the state park and the glacial grooves. We had Brandy Alexander's at the Village Pump and dinner at the Island House. All of our other meals were spent at Cedar Cottage where the kitchen was well stocked with everything a cook needs. We also enjoyed watching fun summer movies and the cottage has a good video library to choose from as well as streaming options. We look forward to making this an annual trip at this functional and accessible property.

Kelley's Island Trip
The property is nice but definitely needs cleaning. The kitchen plates were not clean. We had to wash everything before using. Shower stall was dirty. The house interior needs cleaned and painted. The deck could use sweeping and power washing. Many weeds and could be so much nicer. We still enjoyed the stay.

Our stay
A group of friends stayed for a couple days. It was a nice place. A little surprised that we had to bring own linens (towels and bed sheets) but checking with other rentals was the same thing. I guess because it was an island. So understood. Most everything was there in regards to kitchen accessories, however no paper towels. Also, we had to take and PAY for the garbage at the refuge place. Thank goodness we had a car so we could get it there. This should have been done through the cleaning crew!!!

Location location
Off the beaten path, but close to the boat ramp and down town area. Good fire pit and space for our dog to roam. Cleaned up all the dog poop including our own (don’t be a slob clean up after your dog). We appreciate our host allowing us to bring our dog and honor him by keeping the yard clean. Parking was sufficient to allow space for two cars and a small sailboat. Our host provided a storage area near by but it was not needed. The bunk bed room is very small with no windows. It does have a vent fan In all an enjoyable stay! Thank you

Long weekend getaway
The cottage and location were perfect for us. Two grandparents and three grandkids ages 5 through 9. The cottage was clean and that is always my first concern when we are going to stay anywhere. We spent our time at the beach, fishing and riding around in a golf cart. We also were able to tour the island school. We had a good time.

Great home!
My husband and I stayed here with our son and grandson. The home was perfect for us. We were on the island to fish, and the house was a great place to hang out after a long day on the water. It is exactly as described. Very clean, and very fast wi-fi which was important to my grandson. We plan to stay again next year!
