This is a 5 star place. Host was excellent, easy to contact and response, immediate. Quiet, picturesque location. Imagine bringing your own home comforts, especially your complete kitchen with you. 2 sets of laundry appliances, lower level kitchen, comfy beds. Wish we could have stayed longer. A truly memorable family time for all the right reasons.

Mercedes was a great host! Very responsive and the house had everything we needed for a long weekend stay. We cooked in a few nights and pans, utensils, Tupperware, etc was all there. The living room and kitchen area was great, we had plenty of room with a big group and never felt crowded. The lake is beautiful, and location was great. We would definitely book again!

We spent 6 nights here, and had a great time! We had 6 adults and 4 teenagers, and had more than enough room and activities for everyone. The space is perfect, the location can’t be beat, and the hosts have thought of everything. Wonderful communication before and during our stay as well. Zero complaints and would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

This beautiful lakefront home had everything we needed for our group of four couples. The home is well stocked with kitchen supplies, paper goods and linens. Even the outdoor grill is first-rate and the host has provided firewood for a campfire and kayaks to enjoy the beautiful lake. We loved the location and would come back again and again!

Wonderful home!

The house was exactly as pictured. Very comfortable for 2 families; would have fit the original 3 families we had planned for with plenty of rooms and bathrooms. The lakeside location is perfect and it was super easy to take the kayaks out and enjoy the lake. The hosts were really responsive and helpful - and I bugged them several times before we even showed up. Would definitely stay here in the future.

We had three couples staying and the bedroom set up and bathrooms worked quite well for us. Kitchen had everything we needed and on rainy days, we were all very comfortable in the great room to hang out and socialize. The dock and fire pit were good for the nice days. There is a concrete sidewalk leading to the dock that the slight downhill approach could be a little tricky. A handrail along the walkway would be a good addition.

The best spot in TC

We had an incredible stay on the lake and I can't say enough great things about our experience! Comfortably fit a group of 10 adults. The amenities (grill, fire pit, dock and lake access, outdoor tables, double kitchens/laundry rooms) were excellent, and all communications with the hostess were speedy and smooth. Great view of the Silver Lake July 4th fireworks from the dock!

We had a such a wonderful stay at this house. We had a family vacation and the house was perfect for the 10 of us. The house was very clean and well-stocked. It was great to have a kitchen, multiple bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, and a washer/dryer on both floors. The house had everything needed for a week at the lake, including kayaks, life vests, fishing poles, sand toys and plenty of beach chairs. The complimentary s’more ingredients were enjoyed by everyone. Overall a super vacation week with many great memories.

Memorial weekend for our cousin

Beautiful, spacious house with lovely lake view for our large group. Four full bathrooms, 2 full kitchens and 7 sleeping areas including pullout sofa bed on lower level gave us ample space to spread out. Convenient to Traverse City and many scenic sites and quaint towns. Hospitable hosts arranged welcoming, fun things in the home for our enjoyment (games, fire wood for fireplaces and fire pit, kayaks. coffee, special snack) and responded quickly to a few questions and help we needed. We very much enjoyed our stay and would return.

Family Lake Vacation

Overall the stay was great. The home is set up nicely for large groups with 2 full baths and a kitchen on each level. We were disappointed in the yard space on the lakeside of the house. It really slopes down to the lake so it wasn’t great for small children. I hope that at some point an investment would be made to add a deck/balcony off the lakeside of the home.
