About this property

Cottage in Bancroft countryside for the perfect relaxing getaway.

  • Escape to this tiny cottage in Bancroft. Guests enjoy a comfy space (picture cozy studio) with one bathroom, designed for a relaxing getaway. The cottage stays comfortable during summer months thanks to air conditioning but has heat for those rainy days. Hair dryer, curling iron, shampoo, bath wash and linens provided. Explore the area or wander our 6 acre property surrounded by farmland. Sit on the porch in the rocking chairs and read a good book by day and take in the night sky or simply sit by a firepit (at the cottage or in the "park" area) at night. A small but complete kitchen is provided, but you can also utilize a Blackstone grill on the porch. Breakfast fixings will be waiting for you in the refrigerator or cereal in the cupboard (enough for each morning of your visit) as well as a coffee, tea and hot chocolate bar.
    The space is suitable for 3 people with a very comfortable full size bed downstairs and a twin bed in the loft. Not suitable for children under 12 because of the steep loft area. We're in a country setting with a tiny village nearby that has a bar (with great pizza) and a restaurant with great food. The cottage is about a mile away from a popular barn style wedding venue (Stone House); also within 7 miles of the village of Durand; 9 miles from Owosso/Corunna; near the Shiawassee River for great kayaking (you can borrow ours); and not far from several lakes and parks. You may choose to just slow down and enjoy the park-like area on this little "farm". There's a gazebo where you can picnic or a bench, table, & hammock in the park area (across the creek bridge)as well. The owner's live on the property for quick contact, but will respect your privacy unless you need us. We spend a lot of time outside, so you may see us and/or our grandkids around the property during your stay.

    PLEASE NOTE: No WIFI or TV- We do receive a clear cell signal.

I stayed at this beautiful cottage for a quite time away and it was absolutely perfect! The host replied back quickly, the cottage/property was very clean, and the small special touches made the cottage feel like home away from home. I am picky about beds and I slept like a baby! Everything was so cozy and peaceful. I will definitely be going back!

As frequent MI weekend travelers we have seen it all (usually B & B or VRBO rentals) and often I don't bother to write a review in the time allowed to do so- not today. This was a last minute anniversary trip, we wanted to explore the area and thought we would stay a night. I found this GEM scrolling through all the hotels in the area. I was simply amazed how intricately they packed all you could possibly need into this tiny space. Pristine and such attention to detail (loved the labels). Decor was beautiful, (trying to find the linen curtain online for our own home:)). Coffee in the porch rockers with rain coming down, like it was out of a Nicholas Sparks novel! Fresh bread was amazing and several goodies were stocked for breakfast; unique and appreciated. Host was a lovely human and quick to respond, nothing weird about them being on the same property (sometimes it is) and kudos for stating so up front. For dinner we made a reservation at Wrought Iron Grill in Owosso, 100% worth the 20 minute drive. Honestly, this was one of my favorite stays- ever. Until next time, cheers!
