Loon cottage is the perfect location for a large group wanting a lake getaway. The large beautiful yard is perfect for games and bonfires. It's located on a great area of the lake that is also very convenient to Elk Rapids and Traverse City. The inside of the cottage is setup to be very comfortable and has a game room on the lower level. The host was incredibly responsive. Our group had a perfect vacation here and we highly recommend it. ##### Sue M.

The yard, lake access, and deck were perfect! We didn't spend much time indoors but the beds were comfy and we were able to make nice meals and watch some Olympics. We also rented a pontoon boat and a lily pad which made spending time on Elk Lake even better. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jocelyn B. 13 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Elk Lake - 2023 I wanted to leave a negative review so fewer people would come stay here, (then we could have the place to ourselves) but we had such an amazing time, I can’t do it. Trevor responded quickly to all my questions and the place was very clean, well stocked and better than other VRBO places we have stayed. Already booked for next year!! ##### Jocelyn B.

We were thrilled with the indoor and outdoor spaces with this property. As reviews stated there is some road noise being near a busier road, but the amenities and the view make it barely noticeable. We enjoyed sipping wine on the outdoor deck, overlooking the lake, as well as roasting s’mores around the large and tidy fire pit. We had one full day of rain but had plenty to entertain both the adults and kiddos. Excellent host communication. Will stay here again! ##### Meghan H.

Swimming off the property was a bit challenging for our older family members. The cottage offered plenty of sleeping capacity. Much of the cottage interior was rather "tired"...could use some sprucing up. Otherwise it was functional for our purposes. ##### kent d.

Stayed here for a weekend trip with 11 of my close girl friends. The house had more than enough seating and beds for all of us. The house was clean, private, in a great location (reasonably close to Traverse City) and overall well furnished for a large group. We were a big fan of the view of the lake from the deck along with the abundance of comfortable seating outside. The house was ready a few hours prior to our scheduled check-in time and the host communicated effectively. The house instructions were clear and the host didn't ask much of us prior to check-out. Overall, would definitely recommend this property to groups of 13 or less. ##### Nick P.

The rooms were clean and comfortable and our host was very easy to communicate with. There were lots of games and things to do and included paddle boards and kayaks. It was a great in-between point to stay and be able to visit both Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island. The only real downside was the very loud and busy road that goes right by the house. It took away from the peacefulness of the backyard and we were lucky to be able to sleep in past 6:00am. We couldn't believe how loud it was. If you're from the Midwest that's probably a non-issue but being from the West coast it was really annoying with the 3 hour time difference. ##### Megan F.

Very easy to communicate with the owners and they left us some great recommendations for some local hotspots and a very delicious bottle of wine from a local winery. Definitely a 10 out of 10! ##### Karen T.

They have beautiful view, well maintained deck and yard. Lots of toys and games. Multiple kayaks and a SUP. Life jackets provided as well. ##### Lexi C.
