Unfortunately rental was misrepresented as entire home but is actually just a guest house. The setting on lake mich is beautiful but we did not get to enjoy it much. The unit is in very close proximity to the main house, whose owner is very is often out in the shared yard, burning paper waste, entertaining guests, and overseeing his many workers. There was virtually no privacy or quiet for 10 of the 12 days we stayed, due to a large construction project that we were not told about. The work was being done literally on all sides of the guest house, and extending all the way down to the beach. There were 10-12 workers at any given time, the intense whining of chain sawing, bulldozing, shouting etc etc. When we told the owner we found the construction impossible to tolerate he said we were lucky the workers didn’t stay until 9PM. Our stay included labor day weekend and VRBO had no other homes available that met our needs so we were forced to stay indoors, with the doors closed and the curtains drawn most of the time, as we couldn’t eat or relax on the back porch. We gradually found a nearby park to enjoy the views but the whole point of paying this much was to be close to the water without having to leave. Also, firepit and barbeque are on owner's side and used by owner. We were blocked in the driveway on several occasions. The host, Jessie was unresponsive after we booked the property. Also, there were no handrails on steps or wheelchair accessible trail as advertised.
