Great getaway

Everything was lovely! We enjoyed the quietness of the lake and were very happy to “unplug” and be outside. Preparing meals for 9 adults was so easy with 2 well stocked kitchens. Owners really thought of everything to make our stay so enjoyable!

Excellent home and experience

The host was very informative and helpful. The home was fabulous - beautiful, offered high quality materials and with many amenities, and was very clean. Lake is beautiful - very clear water with bass fishing available, had loons and a bald eagle. Setting is very quiet and peaceful. Is in a fairly remote area but only 30 mins from Manistee and Ludington. We will definitely consider going again.

Absolutely Warming

When we arrived the outside of the house was very beautiful and when we opened the door the house was very stunning and clean and well equipped with anything you needed. Back of the house had 2 levels for outside sitting along with 2 fire pits and a sitting area down by the water.. Roll boat and canoe if you decide to go out on the clean lake. Jodi the hostess was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!

Gun Lake Stay

Our family was welcomed at the Gun Lake home this past August. We had a beautiful stay. The home was well stocked with everything you need. From the kitchen/bathroom supplies to the fun activities outside. Our Gun Lake stay was truly a home away from home for the week. The home is very clean. The lake is mucky and recommended water shoes for the property/water. Our kids loved fishing right off the dock. They caught lots of fish! We did spend days on Lake MI because it is roughly 25-30 minutes away and enjoyed Jodi's local suggestions for food/shopping.
