Was a beautiful house.

Beds were hard. Ran out of toilet paper in some bathrooms and no extra anywhere. No shampoo or body wash in bathrooms . Downstairs pillows were not clean. Grounds were spectacular. View was so beautiful. Screen porch was a great place to sit and enjoy the view.

Wonderful Stay on Lake Palmer!

Beautiful lake house in Colon, MI! We had a wonderful stay on this property. The house itself is clean, comfortable and quiet; my 10 year old especially loved the ping pong table in the basement! We loved the lakeshore and grounds; there are two docks and lots of seating as well as a fire pit. It rained one morning and being able to sit in the large screened in porch to watch the lake while it rained was just perfect. There was a kayak, fishing pole, floats in the garage that were available for use. There’s also a great playground that is walking distance which was a big hit. We would absolutely come back; thank you Denise for the rental and quick communications when we needed it!

Very clean. As advertised. Great back porch, yard, and fire pit area. Nice to have a kayak on property. Only suggestions to improve the experience: A Keurig coffee maker, and a king size bed in one of the bedrooms.

Great stay

Needed somewhere for our family visiting family in the area. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The property is very well maintained and owners were easy to communicate with! With our group it was the right amount of space and being right on the lake was added bonus. Highly recommend

About the host

Hosted by Denise Smith

We bought this lake property with the intention of remodeling and flipping it but...it was so beautiful and in the neighborhood where my husband grew up so we decided to keep it. As a family we like to spend time there when it is not rented. If you book this property it is possible that you will see us on occasion coming to the lake to take the pontoon out for a boat ride.
