Awesome family reunion/wedding weekend!
The home was exactly as advertised, spacious enough for 8 adults and 2 children, plenty to do for fun outside too! The boats & 3.5 baths were a huge influence on our selection decision. We loved it!!

A Perfect Place to Relax with Family and Friends
We had a fun and relaxing week kayaking, swimming, and sitting by the campfire. We had 6 kids (7-12 years old) who enjoyed every bit of this property inside and out. The lake is beautiful and peaceful and the house is close enough to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City to make day trips doable. We highly recommend!

Lake vacation
We had a great time. The house had plenty of room for all of us. It had plenty of supplies that we forgot. It was close to a grocery and pharmacy. The kids enjoyed the kayaks and swimming in the lake. It was a good time for everyone.

Great vacation!
Our family of nine just loved this home. It is just as pictured….even better! Owners are terrific. There was a problem with the washing machine and they were there to replace the day after we arrived. Property Manger was also great to work with. Answered all my questions promptly in the weeks leading up to our stay. If you rent this house make sure you plan a day at Sleeping Bear Dunes. Beautiful!!!! Since we spent most of our time at the house we ate all of our meals there. The one suggestion I do have is to get another garbage can if it is allowed by the town. Pick up is mid week so the one can gets full fast.

Paradise up north
Well maintained cozy place on the water. My entire family enjoyed this trip up north. We could kayak, canoe, jet ski & fish right off the dock. We took our atv’s as well & the trails were literally across the street. We’ll be back!

Great place for a family
This place was great for a family. It had a lot of room and things to do. The only thing we didn’t like was the parking. It was hard to park there in the winter, as there isn’t much space when the hill is icy and snow covered. But, it wouldn’t deter us from staying there again. Other than that, it was wonderful.
