We truly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property! The house was spacious and comfortable for our family, very clean and well supplied with everything we needed! The garage is an added bonus, with an extra refrigerator and games - it was a fun space to hang out in on a rainy, chilly afternoon. The lake view from the property is stunning as you are able to see both sunrise and sunset! Our hosts were very responsive, and we are looking forward to staying here again!

2 families that have vacationed together for years. This house had perfect space inside and out for all of us and we had the best time ever. Laying on the deck watching a meteor shower was amazing. We swam, rented a boat for fishing, went out to Tally Ho, the Helmer restaurant, Oswald’s near ranch, played ping pong, cornhole, and perhaps our favorite thing was just gathering on the back deck watching the lake. What an amazing place!!!!

What you see on the website is exactly what you get, an incredible view with a clean and cozy cabin. The host was very easy to deal with and the checking process was very simple. If you're staying in the UP I highly recommend this location!
