Host profile image

We are sisters in Gaylord, Michigan, we have lived in this private community, Lake Arrowhead since we were babies and have loved every second of it. The moment you enter you just feel as if you are in a whole new world, with its love between neighbors and enjoyment on all the outdoor toys. We have a passion for traveling and meeting new people, which is our main reason as to why we became property managers. To allow people to enjoy the fun we endur each and everyday. We are known for our four seasons of fun and excited for our guests to be able to experience this. We are right down the road and always here if you need anything!

Gaylord, MI is the heart & soul of our life; growing up together in this community we have grown to live & breathe Lake Arrowhead. The moment you pull in & see the ‘Lake Arrowhead’ entrance sign you feel like you have entered into a Northern Michigan paradise. From enjoying your friendly neighborhood banter to riding all seasons toy(s) - you get to experience it all right where you vacation!

As we do our daily walks around the lake, we enjoy seeing new faces, which began our journey of property management. Bringing families & friends together through rental properties to experience where we live in this association has become our life line. Come enjoy our four seasons of fun + we are right down the road for any of your travel needs!
