We had a wonderful time. Grass could have been cut and the cleaning fee was way overpriced. We had to clean a bathroom shower before we used it.I was happy though with the communications with the owners.

Challenging for Seniors
BBQ out of propane!!Long grass around bond fireAnt hills everywhere on concrete outsideWe assumed it was handicap friendly, due to handicap bar by one toilet.Wished the description stated which floor the bedrooms were on. The pics a bit misleading.Was our family first VRBO experience. Own our expectations may have been too high.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 June 2025
Guests are encouraged to read entire description and ask questions prior to booking.
Guest was unable to operate the propane grill, even though previous guest had zero issues.
The grass was at an acceptable height, per pictures submitted by lawn care professional.
The listing does not state handicap accessible.
Bedrooms are listed by floor.
About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Ewald
Four years renting via Vrbo, but I have been renting properties for the last 10 years. I enjoy creating beautiful houses for my guests to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
I feel in love with the area and close access to Lake George. The house offers tons of space for guests to hang and cook. It's a beautiful quiet get away.
What makes this property unique
Lake George is only 10 mins off Highway 127. 30 mins North takes you to Houghton Lake and 30 minutes South takes you to Mount Pleasant. We are between Clare and Harrison if you don't feel like cooking and want to grab a meal out. There are 3 Grocery stores in Harrison (Family Fare, Save A Lot and Steve's meat market)
