Oak Cove Kids

                              
People ask both Bob and me all the time, "What is it like to run a small summer        
 resort, and how do you manage all of the work it requires?"   I can tell you that
 after decades of doing this, with all of the wonderful people we've met from all
over the United States and the world, watching families and friends come back
year after year - their children growing up before us - we wouldn't have it any
other way.  This continues to be a labor of love, one that allows us to serve
others and be a part of people's lives during what is truly a very precious and
special time in the American experience - the family summer vacation.  Here
are only a sample of the comments we frequently receive from our guests that
 help keep us loving this place as much as they do!

                              - Susan Wojcik, Owner and Hostess of Oak Cove Resort

"This is the BEST place EVER!" (Zachary S., age 5)

Hi Susan and Bob - I had the best summer visiting Oak Cove. I had a great time
 riding bikes, swimming, going on boat rides, and I faced my fear because I jumped
 off the raft into deep water!.  I had a great time and hope to come back next year
. Love, your friend, Cassidy V. age 8 1/2

"...Just a note to say again what a wonderful time we had during our first visit to
Oak Cove, and to thank you both one more time for your hospitality and generosity
 of deed and spirit.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and have made numerous
recommendations to others to give Oak Cove a try." (Debra G.)

"We had a wonderful time at your resort.  We have stayed at other family owned
resorts in Michigan, but yours was by far the best.  The Food was wonderful and
 the house was beautiful.  It was perfect for our large family.  Thanks again for a
relaxing week, we hope to see you next year!" 
                        Fondly ~ Juanita, Dan, Tammy, Dave, Shawn & Blaine

"...Susan, your entrees were always fresh and delightful, and Bob, I always remember
 your words, "Do you have enough food?  Would you like some more?"..."  (David B.)

"I am glad to be back to Oak Cove Resort.  Last summer we went to DisneyWorld,
 and I wished I was here instead!  I missed fishing, playing with the new kids, and the
 roast beef and mashed potatoes."  (Luke M., age 10)

"I had more fun at Oak Cove than at Disney World" (Bobby K.)

"...And the food is better, and the price is too!" (Bobby's Father)

"Bob and Susan - your card came in the mail yesterday, and as we looked at the front,
 it brought a smile to our faces - the day I fell out of the boat and into the lake!  What a
 beautiful picture of your place - so inviting, so relaxing, so serene - I can almost smell
those wonderful aromas coming from the kitchen!  (Jerrianne I.)

We want to say THANKS for your great hospitality.  We were there in August and just
 before we got married.  We've enjoyed both times and will return soon.  You two take
care & continue giving us folks your best. (Jerry & Barb K.)

Thanks, Susan and Bob, for all you did to help make our anniversary so memorable! 
Your idea of the 50's in Baggies was  fantastic.  Thanks, too, for your Treasure Trove
(I'm reading it with interest!) and the delicious cake.  Your staffers were great!  Here's
 wishing you all the best in the seasons to come. (Verna and Roy B.)

Just a short note filled with thanks for a wonderful time.  The food was wonderful and
the service was second to none.  Thanks you so very much for making our week so
memorable.  The kids couldn't wait to get home and tell all their stories.  It was such
a relaxing time and thank you for being the wonderful people that you are.  I do think
 that if you are going to offer such wonderful rich food there should be a treadmill
                                            somewhere on site!!!!!!! (Mary & Jim G.)

I didn't have a chance to come say goodbye and thank you before we left yesterday!
 In spite of everything, we had a great time at Oak Cove and will have lots of wonderful
 memories to treasure in years to come.  I don't know if you heard about it, but the kids
 even made up and "Oak Cove Cheer", which named some of their favorite features of
 the Oak Cove, including the pool frogs and horse flies!  Thanks, especially, for your
concern about Mom and for your flexibility with us at mealtimes.  We all agreed that if
something like Mom's event had to occur, we couldn't have been in a much better place
or with nicer people.  Thanks so much.  Hope the rest of your summer goes well and that
 the heat doesn't last too long! (Jenni and Kirk D.)

I just wanted to write so I could thank you for such a wonderful time.  The kids, Bob and
 I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.  It was so nice not to have to cook, but we all ate way
too much.  The pool and the beach were beautiful and my kids are in love with the
shuffleboard. They are already asking me when we can go back. (Joan R.)

Enjoyed your web page as you know there are many resorts I could have chosen. 
You and your staff looked so friendly, and the grounds so nice we just had to choose
your resort!  Look forward to my visit. (Dave M.)

"I wasn't sure what to expect, but because it was different than what we usually do,
 I thought I might be bored. I was wrong!  There was loads to do, and we all had
 a great time."(Ian C., age 11 - from england)

“I’ve traveled all over the world, and I can truly say that Oak Cove Resort offers
 one of the most welcoming and relaxing atmospheres that I’ve found.  The food is
consistently good, and best of all, there are no dishes to do afterwards!  My wife
and I love to just enjoy the lake and quiet natural settings by sitting on a swing
and reading.  I can also let my kids run without worry, knowing they are busy
 exploring the beach and trails and enjoying the property.  They keep busy all
 day long swimming, looking for frogs and turtles, or playing games or pool
 and listening to the juke box in the Fun House.  Oak Cove provides for a
 really refreshing time for my family - We can all actually relax for a week,
instead of feeling like we need another vacation when we return home...”

"Bob & Susan, thank you so much for helping make our 3rd family reunion
 a success.  Everyone was pleased with Oak Cove Resort and had a great
 time. You were very gracious hosts, met all of our needs, fed us
outstanding food, and really impressed us with your ability to remember
everyone's names!  I won't hesitate to recommend Oak Cove to anyone
 looking for a beautiful and relaxing get-away."  (Jeani B.)

"We created some beautiful memories at your summer resort....Bob and
 Susan, thank you for your hospitality and genuine concern for our well being
.  We felt very special."  (Joan O.)

"Susan and Bob are like family after 17 years of vacationing at Oak Cove.
 They suggest places to see, unique shops, and activities for children if the
 weather is cool or rainy. Our grown children now come with spouses and
 friends. The food continues to be a big draw, with a variety of fresh fruits
 and vegetables. Susan packs a lunch if needed. Every year we return to
find improvements have been made." (Joan B.) 

"The Lake House was a perfect fit for our family, with plenty of room,
 great views of the lake, and air-conditioning. Ample paddleboats,
canoes, rowboats, and more for our use.  The kids enjoy going back
and forth between the pool and lake, and a selection of bikes are available
for riding." (Deborah J.)

"...An old-fashioned family resort, perched by the beach of beautiful Lake
Cora, with all possible equipment provided to enjoy both land and lake."
                                                                                               (Janet R.)

"Susan and Bob are always ready to answer questions, recommend local
 points of interest, and lend a hand. Our lodge room was kept cool with
 fans; the shared baths are kept clean, and plumbing and other minor
problems quickly repaired. Children can enjoy the"Fun House" without
 disturbing adults." (Janet F)

"The lodge rooms are decorated with antiques; the air is fresh; and meals
 are served on a glassed/screened-in porch overlooking the lake."  (Betsy R.)

"Bob & Susan....Thanks for the setting to a GREAT FAMILY REUNION!"
