Great place!!
We had a great stay! The property is equipped with just about anything you could possibly imagine needing!! I was a little nervous renting the boat after reading some reviews, however we quickly learned that if you have any experience with boats, you will not have an issue!

Perfect for R&R, very quiet and peaceful
Great place to stay if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway! Everything you can possibly think of is already at the house, you can even rent the owners pontoon boat. The owners are very helpful and responsive. We will be back again!

Labor Day weekend family getaway
What an awesome place! A perfect lakefront house. On a real nice lake, with nice frontage. The house is very nicely kept and the perfect size for 6 of us in our family. The weather was perfect and we got to enjoy the optionally rented pontoon.

Nice lake property for family
Good size house & availability of pontoon paddleboat kayak great. Big deck & sandy beach area perfect for small kids. Kitchen well equipped but disappointed w oven & dishwasher. Would suggest grab bars in masterbath as tub is difficult to get into for adults & children. Step outside door to deck def needs repair.

Cloverdale Lakefront Review
Ned and Gorica were the best hosts and we had a great time at the lakefront cottage on Long Lake. Gorica even called me to wish me a happy birthday. One of Ned and Gorica's friends (Ray) brought us a Blueberry Pie for my Birthday, it was delicious. The fireworks on July 3rd were the best and we didn't have to leave the property to see them. Everything was perfect, we would highly recommend staying here, we'll be back. Thank you Ned and Gorica for a wonderful vacation. Jeff

Away from it all
We stayed at this cottage in June 2021. We found the house clean and orderly but hot. I really liked the lay out as we were able to be on one side of the house and the rest of the family on the other end at night. The pontoon was a bonus, the battery was dead when we arrived but Ray came and took care of it for us. Ray was very accommodating to any requests that we had. We had a fun week away from it all and would stay again. We had a few concerns but the owners handled everything very graciously.

Great lake house with everything needed for a great vacation.
Booking and setup was very easy and streamlined. Instructions on access and everything about the lake house were simple and easy. The host was always very attentive before and during our stay. They really wanted us to enjoy ourselves. The house was plenty big enough for a family of four with a dog. House was stocked with all supplies needed for our stay and had all the amenities as described and then some. We rented the boat and enjoyed fishing and just cruising beautiful Long lake. The kids swam every day and played in the nice little beach steps from the back door. Nearest town is Hastings and has everything you need for groceries, supplies and dining out. Long lake is a great little community and we will be back again.

Long lake cabin
Older property on beautiful lake with great fishing. Clean cabin, but low water pressure in kitchen sink so it was difficult to wash dishes, and I don’t think guests should have to wash and fold their own linens at the end of their stay! This is the second Michigan rental we have been asked to do this, even though we paid 600 dollars to stay there?!?!?

Perfect for a family!
We had an excellent stay and made lots of memories! The beach area is perfect for young kids. My 2 and a half year old had a blast, and I felt very comfortable with him on the deck and in the yard and on the beach. Grandparents all had a great time also. It was nice that the house had lots of space and was all one level. The camp across the lake was so fun to watch and listen to! We found it to be really entertaining and not at all disruptive as the campers are on a very set and predictable schedule. My toddler napped inside from 1-3 each day and could not hear any of the hootin and hollerin of the campers swimming, so don’t let that give you cause for concern. Neighbors were extremely quiet and/or not home. Lake itself not crazy busy and felt very safe for kayaking, fishing, boating, swimming, etc. We plan to be back again!

Beautiful lake!
My family and I had a wonderful time fishing and boating around the crystal clear Long Lake. The house we rented was large enough for everyone to have their own space when needed and room for together time as well. Our only negative point was the pontoon boat we rented had either a faulty starter or a weak battery. Getting it started was always an issue. We even managed to get out onto the lake to fish and attempted to head back only to discover a dead battery. Fortunately, we were offered a tow from another boater and one other resident offered us the use of his extra boat battery. We opted to use the extra battery and once connected, our rental boat started on the first try and we were able to get back to our rental house safely. Great people live and stay on Long Lake!

Loved the lake front ranch home!
Our daughters and their spouses joined us for one week on Long Lake. It was a great vacation. We enjoyed being on the lake with a beach and dock with the rental pontoon boat. The water in Long Lake was so clear and clean - really lovely! Also the yard, deck and fire pit were great for enjoying the outdoors and the lake, the sunset and the stars, swimming and kayaking (We also rented two additional two-person kayaks from the Gun Lake Marina about 20 minutes away transporting them on our car roof racks, because we love to kayak.), and fishing up and down the lake. The house had good hang out space indoors and for dining and food prep. Bottled water always chilled made things easy. Sleeping rooms were as represented and comfortable. Also it was great looking out on the ripening fruit trees in the front lawn. The pears were nearly all gone but various types of apples were abundant and a few peaches were still on the tree. The neighborhood was friendly. We walked the dog up and down the road which provided a decent distance for a people walk or a dog walk. Owners were accessible and responsive. We had a very enjoyable stay!

Not a lot of privacy
House was very clean, larger than the photos showed, and just as described. We were very comfortable. The only small issue worth noting was the amount of times someone "checked on us" or sent someone over. Instead of coming over, texting is best as it preserves our privacy and desire to relax. Both of the toilets malfunctioned during our stay. One person came over to check it, then they called a plumber. He got the 1st toilet working right away. The 2nd toilet stopped working the day we were checking out. We were told about 2 weeks before our stay that the pontoon was no longer available for rent even though I had asked for it as an option. If you do choose to rent, you'll be fine if the plumbing issues have been fixed and you get it in writing that you have secured the pontoon. This is a really nice property and right on the lake. We had a very good food delivery in the area (burgers, pizza). Fishing was very good right off the dock. Property manager was very warm, gracious and helpful.

A Nice Summer Vacation
The home is older but it was very clean and well-stocked with basically everything you could want. The décor of the house is a bit dated but it was very comfortable. A few minor things – the master bath only has 1 towel rack, limited closet space in the master suite (one closet with rod was full of stuff), the dishwasher is not secured to the counter. The house is arranged with a master suite w/queen bed at one end and 2 rooms w/2 double beds each at the other end. In between are the dining area, kitchen, laundry, and family room. The large deck has 2 tables and includes a gas grill. The igniter on the grill didn’t work. Our group included twin 4-year-olds and 4 adults and we all enjoyed the large yard, deck, sand beach, and dock. Long Lake itself was nice, about 2 miles long and ¼-½ mile wide. There was a lot of boat traffic during the weekend but it was much quieter during the week. Camp Michawana is across the lake and at times during the day there was a fair amount of noise coming from there. The house also has a pontoon boat you can rent (we did for part of the week) but I’m not sure it was worth it. Cruising the lake takes about 20 minutes and you can only do that so many times. The owner provided us with a video on starting the boat after we had an issue with that; it would be nice to have this video ahead of time. A binder with local info on grocery stores, firewood, fishing licenses, local attractions, restaurants, etc would have been useful. Would rent again.

Lakeside visit
We’ve stayed at other VRBO rentals and this one was the most disappointing. The location right on the lake is great. The small sand area on shore, dock for fishing, kayak & paddle boat were very nice to have as we had grandkids with us. Unfortunately the house needs a little TLC in my opinion. Upon arrival the lock box was broke & the house was unlocked. It turned out the owner had sent us an email but with no WiFi we received it much later. After unpacking we realized there was no water, the pump had burned up. Night one was spent with buckets of water to flush toilets until the plumber came the next day. Once a pump was installed the water continued to be quite rusty. Glass on the oven door was shattered & there were a few pieces that were on the floor, not good with bare Feet! Had it not been for the property managers efforts to give us options, a short outdoor walk down the street to her guest house for a shower & working bathroom AND her effort in getting a plumber on a Saturday of a holiday weekend we would of cancelled our stay. THANK YOU HOLLY! I can see that the house was once nice, but the owners need to invest some time & probably money to update it. I wouldn’t stay there again until this was done. It was also unfortunate they didn’t communicate anything to us during or after our stay. As Holly was scrambling to find a plumber or alternative solution she verbally told us the owners mentioned we could use the pontoon for free. Quite honestly given the condition of the other items I would of been afraid of taking the older pontoon out with little kids on board for fear of possibly getting stranded, plus none of us were boaters. We didn’t hear from the owners directly about this disastrous start during or after our stay.

Beautiful views of lake and quiet especially during the week. Sand bottom to end of pier. House needs updating and some TLC but was satisfactory. Loads of kitchen accessories. Didn't rent pontoon boat but it needs a really good wash down.

Just as good the 2nd Time
We also stayed at this house in July 2023 and after looking at some other places for Summer 2024 we decided to come back here. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths it is just the right size for my wife and I along with our daughter and her husband and their 5-year old twins. The nice size yard and the gently sloping sand beach are perfect for the grandkids. While the house is a bit dated it has good size bedrooms, a decent kitchen, dining area, and large family room all on one floor. And the washer and dryer come in very handy. The only glitch we had on this trip is that when we arrived the owners were still there working to address an issue that had happened during a prior renters stay. Check-in was at 4:00 and it was closer to 5:30 before we got in but everything was fine then. The kayak that was supposed to be at the house was also missing (blew away during a storm?). Anyway it was nice to meet the owners and they graciously provided us with use of the pontoon boat for the week at no additional charge (other than the cost of gas). One other thing to be aware of; there is a youth camp directly across the lake from this house and they can get a bit loud, especially during the afternoon. Overall though, I recommend this place if you're looking for a reasonably priced house right on the lake. A couple of suggestions for the owner - 1) install more towel bars in the master bath, 2) provide some Tupperware or something similar for storing leftovers during the week.
