We loved our stay at The Lakehouse Retreat! Sherrie was a wonderful and responsive host and the home was spotless, spacious, and perfect for our group. The lake views, renting the pontoon boat, kayaking, and swimming made it extra special, and the location is ideal for relaxing. There is easy access to the lake. We enjoyed the shaded dining space on the deck and the firepit area near the water. The kitchen is well stocked. Truly fun for all ages—highly recommend!

The Lake House on Crooked Lake

Our stay at the Lake house was a good one. It accomadated the 7 of us quite well. We enjoyed the fishing off the dock. Caught several different species of fish. The dozen of swans were amazing to watch every day. The sunsets were very colorful. The area was very peaceful and quiet. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Although the weather wasn’t in our favor, we enjoyed our stay and time together. Kayaking and fishing were the main features the week.The house has plenty of room to spread out, including two bathrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing home-cooked meals 3x per day, including a pot big enough to make spaghetti for six and for boiling corn on the cob. The grill was clean and ready for us, all we needed to supply was the charcoal.The dining table was the hub for most of our meals and for board games (supplied by host!), except when the weather allowed for a lunch or two at the table on the deck under the awning.We enjoyed the water as much as the temperature allowed and built sand castles and watched sunsets the rest of the time.

Pleasant stay

This is a good size house on a very nice lake with beautiful sunsets and a nice pier to fish from. The main area is large and the kitchen well equipped.While there are 2 bathrooms one is accessible only through the primary bedroom on the 2nd floor. This means that others sleeping upstairs must go through that bedroom to use the bathroom at night or venture down the stairs to the first floor bathroom. The bathroom on the first floor is small and might be difficult for some to manuever in.

The Lake House was more than we'd hoped for!

We had the best week at Sherrie and Norman's Lake House! The house is cute and the decor puts you in the lake life mode right away. We flew into MI from out of state, so we were traveling light, but the house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - the kitchen had all of the tools and dishes that we needed, the appliances worked well, the house had lots of comfy furniture and space for everyone to enjoy being together, there was a whole shelf of games and cabinet of movies to enjoy, the location right on the water was just what we had hoped for, and Sherrie and Norman were great hosts. Thank you both for making our Michigan summer vacation dreams a reality.

Nice lake house...

The property is nice; cozy and inviting. The king suite could use a mattress update, and the showers are a bit cramped, but other than that the property is good. Great location, feet from the lake, great accommodations. Owner is very friendly, and worked with us on any requests.

Wonderful Fall Getaway

What a lovely and perfect place for a fall family trip! The kids had a blast fishing from the dock and kayaking in the lake. We took advantage of the boat available for rent and spent plenty of time cruising the lake in comfort! Sherrie was very sweet and helpful, and we appreciated her tips and tricks of the lake. We would definitely book with her again!

About the host

Hosted by Sherrie

Host profile image
About the owners: Sherrie and her family migrated from the inner city life of Chicago in the mid 70’s. This home is considered her childhood home where her parents hosted many gatherings and made special memories.

For over 40 years, the Weevers rented their lake front property next door and watched generations grow year after year as family/friends made Crooked Lake their vacation destination. We hope others enjoy! Sherrie and Norman
