We were in town for our daughter’s wedding at the venue nearby, and this was a perfect place to stay. The home was easy to find and very clean; great communication with the owners and just a spectacular view of the lake.
The host was great and the lake house was perfect for our Thanksgiving holiday. Our teens loved the game room in the basement. We all appreciated the house having a t.v. in every room! And the phone chargers in the bedrooms. The lake views are amazing! We'd definitely stay here again!
House was very clean and had plenty of space for our 11 family members. the kitchen was fully stocked with cooking supplies. The outdoor space was great and had lots of seating. We really enjoyed the views of the lake and the thoughtfulness of the host.
Our family of four had a great time staying here. Plenty of room for friends and family to visit for the day or for some to stay overnight. The kitchen was nicely stocked and the lake front house also had plenty of beach towels to go around. The sandbar across from the property was entertaining, especially over the 4th of July. The fireworks over the lake and the boat parade were a nice surprise to watch. The game room downstairs was fun for all ages as well.
Easy communication T/O the stay. Everything we needed was available. Fun and busy week on the water with the holiday but always felt safe and relaxed. Clean and well thought out surroundings. Would definitely stay again!!
Our family had an incredible stay at this beautiful lakefront property! The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped with absolutely everything we needed. Waking up each morning to the peaceful view of the lake was truly special and the highlight of our trip was seeing a swan family with their three adorable babies gliding by every day. It felt like something out of a storybook! The setting was quiet and relaxing, yet still conveniently located. The host was kind, responsive, and made everything super easy. Our family would absolutely love to come back and make more memories!! I would highly recommend this slice of lakeside paradise!
The house was great, plenty of room and very clean. My grandchildren loved the bunk room with the huge TV. But most of all loved fishing off the dock during the day and hanging out in the game room at night! It was a mini vacation just being at the house. There were 12 of us-adults & kids and it never felt cramped or uncomfortable.
The deck was amazing-sat out every morning with our coffee watching the boats go by.
Great communication and hospitality! I highly recommend it!
This house and location is as advertised. Very clean house with plenty of room. The outdoor deck has great views and is a spacious area to hang out. The host are very generous and have two kayaks along with a bunch of water toys. The basement arcade with Pac-Man and an air hockey table was a good spot to end the day. Bonus is the house is pet friendly.The location on Pontiac Lake was perfect. Volleyball island is directly across from the house where we got to hangout with some of the friendly locals. There is a small marina down the street where we rent a pontoon and docked at the house for a couple of days.We would highly recommend this rental and hope to return in the future.

During the summer the state park with a large sandy beach, volleyball island which is a sandbar directly in front of the property, great fishing, island day camp for kids, hiking and biking trails, golf courses and go-carts. During the winter months there is a nearby ski resort. There are also a variety of restaurants and stores nearby for whatever you may need.
