Vakantiewoningen met vuurplaats in Hillsdale County

Thistle House is bigger inside than it looks. The layout is inefficient: long walk from bedroom to bathroom-- 2 total in the house, but strangely right next to each other--and wasted space downstairs (esp. main bathroom). All of that, including the narrow, enclosed, back-hallway-like staircase and creaky floors lend to its old-time charm, though. There are modern appliances (e.g., refrigerator, stove/oven, washer/dryer, large TV) but no dishwasher. The heat is also inefficient. Downstairs seemed fine, but Jennifer had (correctly) warned us that upstairs where the bedrooms are would be chilly. Heating fans were available in each, but we opted just to pile on blankets, which she also had several of around the house. The only bed we tried (queen in the front room) was comfortable. That walk-in closet had lots of hangers we could use. We were pleased to be a short drive from campus in a safe neighborhood and in a house obviously well loved and cared for. We would stay here again.

Ryan’s house was perfect for us right on the lake made nights a lot easier to relax, I would definitely stay with him again

The house was very clean, spacious, and had everything- and then some!- that we needed. There was even a helpful business card for a local dispensary. The location was amazing, very peaceful and beautiful. We saw an eagle, two heron, and two geese families as soon as we turned onto the road before we even got to the house! Definitely bring your own kayak- that's the only regret I have.

We love the cottage and all it has to offer. We had everything we needed. There was plenty of space… beautiful views, and we really enjoyed our time there with the family. We love Long Lake and plan to return as soon as we are able.

Second stay, and will likely stay again. All the house you need and then some right on the lake!

Affordable and clean. I did back to back stays and it was a positive experience.

nice place. this was our 2nd time staying here. The place was clean and user friendly.

Everything was great. Absolutely loved the carriage house! Thank you so much for the attention you give to it for your guests. Hopefully, we will have opportunity to come back in summer. Brought back lots of memories because my grandparents had a cabin 5 min away for decades during my childhood. Thanks again!

This place was everything we needed!!! The location was perfect because it was so close to the Waterloo Hunt Club for our horse show. The inside is recently updated and has everything it listed, even a keurig! This home is on the water and give you assess to the dock for fishing, has a fire pit, beautiful patio and a great grill-eating area including a large picnic table. The 1.5 bathrooms was nice when we were all getting ready in the morning. It’s a quiet area so easy ins and outs. Just overall excellent and so comfortable! Will come back for sure when we have our next horse show!

I had no issues upon arrival entering the space. Easy, clear cut directions. Space is clean, tidy and perfect for a weekend getaway. Hot tub was nice with a great view of the lake. I felt comfortable staying here. I would visit again.

John & I were so thankful for the living space Kathleen offered. We were in Marshall for 6 weeks to work with the Brain Treatment Center. We loved our health retreat as we worked with Dr. Wallace and her staff. Sunset Hills living was perfect with everything we needed, also to allow me to work remotely while in Marshall. Kathleen and Shawn were amazing and so so responsive to any of our request. Love and Energy! Diana

such a detailed, friendly space! stayed for a wedding weekend and it had anything you could need from an iron to all the extra toiletries. Plus was so relaxing and cozy. our host personalized recommendations too, would definitely recommend if you're looking for an adventure or for a place to crash in the beautiful Irish hills.

We stayed during the off season but I have to imagine this place is amazing during the summer. We had a great time. Beautiful view of the lake.

We absolutely loved our stay! House was clean and perfect for us, had everything we needed. The water was clear and we loved the sandy beach, We will be back again!

This place was so cute and cozy. It was perfect for us to visit family living across the lake!

Great place to stay and relax, the view is amazing and Brittain is a excellent host

Kaylee was a great host. When the first cabin I went to book was already booked, she quickly recommended this one to us which was very helpful because this cabin hadn't shown up on my initial search in the app.

What a beautiful space—right out of a magnolia home magazine :-) provided us a private and peaceful open concept gathering area. Had everything we needed! Would definitely stay again!!

Great place for my crew to relax after long work days.

Our second year staying here for a family retreat. It is difficult to find an Airbnb that sleeps 8, but also has room for 8 at the kitchen table and on the sofa, and we are appreciative that this property does. Well stocked and comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy lake house! The home is nestled in a beautiful forested area, surrounded by tall trees and the sound of birds in every direction — it felt like our own peaceful retreat in nature. The lake view was stunning, and we loved spending mornings sipping coffee on the porch while soaking it all in. The house itself was clean, comfortable, and very family-friendly, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. Whether we were gathered around the firepit, cooking meals together, or just relaxing with a good book, it was the perfect place to unwind and reconnect. Our host was fantastic — incredibly responsive, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. Overall, a truly special spot for nature lovers and families looking for fun, relaxation, and beautiful scenery. We can’t wait to come back!
