The water is only a 1-2 feet deep at the entrance, making it perfect for your little ones.

We had a great time on Gun Lake. The house has every amenity you could need and communication is prompt if anything arises. The lake is beautiful and was not overly busy, even on a holiday weekend. This is a perfect pick for a family getaway. We are looking forward to coming back next year.
Location was amazing. Home was a bit dated. Amenities were great. Communication with owner was very timely and helpful. Price was also very reasonable.
The house was a perfect spot for our family vacation. Dated, but clean and perfect for a lake vacation. Nice open spaces in the dining room and sun porch. Quick communication and lots of lake toys and chairs to use.
Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, a well stocked kitchen and roomy enough spaces for a group. We enjoyed the water, the kayaks, the paddle boards and the floatation devices. So happy with the air conditioning as it was hot a humid when we stayed. Our family enjoyed the swing with our grandson.
We visited the area for a wedding of a friend. The booking, the checking in and the entire stay was enjoyable! The views of the lake from house is so nice! The house is clean but as stated in other reviews it is a bit of a rustic cottage and could use a few updates but that did not take away the comfortability of feeling right at home!Absolutely beautiful sunrise! I wish we could have been there for a summer stay because the lake looks like it would make for so much fun and it's just steps away from fun in the sun!Thank you Mark and Liz for opening your home!
We enjoyed our weekend at the cottage. Our granddaughter loved paddling around in the kayak. Appreciated the many updates the owners have made. The beds were comfy and the air conditioner worked great. Thanks Mark.
We had a great 3 nights at the cottage. Kitchen was well stocked, water toys and pontoon rental was appreciated and Mark was a great communicator. The reason we did not give 5 stars is because the cottage is dated and the sun porch is musty.
This cottage is in a great location, close to everything with a great view. It leaves a little to be desired when it comes to the house itself. It is very dated and has uneven floors. Luxurious it is not. However, it suited our needs well and we had a great time.
Mark is a good host and a good neighbor to his neighbors on the lakeshore.
This Gun Lake cottage was the perfect place for our family of 4 and pup. Two separate bedrooms with bunk beds for the kids, plenty of room to spread out and relax in either the family room, enclosed porch, or backyard over looking the lake. The kitchen and dining areas offered ample space to entertain, and the cottage was well stocked with all of the utensils and paper supplies we needed for the week. Our family enjoyed using the included kayaks & paddleboards, and renting the available pontoon boat and jet skis for a couple days were a nice bonus to our memerable vacation. Mark was a great host and communicated details promptly and efficiently. We hope to be able to return again in the future!
We had a great time at the property. Was bigger and better than expected from the online photos and description. Served are larger group very well. Would highly recommend this property!
We had a great time during our stay. The home offers direct access to Gun Lake in its backyard, with abundance of fun lake-related activities: private pier, jets and a boat (for additional fee), tow tube, etc. We were able to bring our dogs along on our vacation which is a definite plus. I will absolutely consider this as a destination for our future getaways.
Great place, loved the large rooms kitchen and porch. A little cramped sleeping with adults, teens and toddlers but we managed. Mark was great.

The house is well kept and right on Gun Lake. It was perfect for what we wanted. There was plenty of space, beautiful views, nice yard and dock.
Our host Mark was very nice and always available. Very easy to work with. It was difficult to leave such a nice place.
This property has a beautiful view and we had a wonderful time. The neighborhood is very peaceful and that is exactly what we needed. The pontoon and the house were very clean and nice. The house has everything in it that you could possibly need. That made packing so much easier. We can't wait to rent it again!
We enjoyed our stay at this lakefront home very much. The living spaces are very roomy, with lovely views of the lake. The home was clean. The kitchen provided everything we needed and more. The outside deck and tree swing are perfect--my grandkids (all under 4) really enjoyed the swing. The local grocery store is only 5 minutes away, which was convenient. The home is on a very quiet street just off the main road. All in all this is a fine property to stay in for a Gun Lake vacation!
WONDERFUL!!!!This was our first time staying anywhere but a hotel. I was hesitant due to horror stories I've heard. But we really wanted to take our Labradors on a lake vacation, so we had no choice. So happy about that! This was all around wonderful! Mark was so responsive and so fast! Like shockingly fast. He entertained my many questions and made me feel comfortable about taking our dogs here. I am admittedly a vacation snob. Kinda picky. The home is dated, which i was prepared for based on other reviews, but it felt clean and charming. Bedrooms were standard. The living area and kitchen were spacious, Plenty of room to entertain for when our adult children visited. I felt very comfortable the whole time.The lake was everything! We spent every day soaking up the sun! Morning coffee outside to swimming and playing on the water toys provided. Ending with a fire by the water. Truly my idea of paradise. The water is what you are paying for.The properties on gun lake are packed in tight. So i was worried about neighbors. We did meet a couple and they were very nice. Its a quiet area and everyone seems to keep to themselves. Which was great for us. We were not there to party. We just wanted to swim with our dogsWe definitely look forward to coming back
We had a fantastic wedding weekend at Bay pointe. This house was a perfect addition to our rooms at the Inn and Boathouse.
Beautiful property on Gun lake. Great host made this so seamless.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The place was thoughtfully stocked with lake gear like paddle boards, lawn chairs, and beach towels. Great location to sit around the campfire and enjoy the lake view. The living room is huge and comfortable. We hope to come back again.
Thank you Mark for the cool place.
