Great location and nice set up. Would be perfect for a family with young children. Only rated it 4 stars due to lack of communication on the checkout process and the bed was not the most comfortable.
Kitchen is newly updated with all the gadgets you need! Plenty of space inside to unwind after fishing, kayaking and having a bonfire or two. This is a very clean home with a gorgeous view both morning and evening!
Everything was perfectly clean, organized and exactly how pictures described. We were so happy with our stay. We had a wedding in town, this location was 5 min away. It was a quick 2 night stay but perfect for what we needed. We def would stay again. Thank you!!
The only complaint that we had was the lack of knowledge about the steep stairs to the entrance of the home. Everything else was great and exactly as advertised.
Overall it was a great rental. The back room with the bunkbeds for the kids allowed the adults to put them to bed and still continue to enjoy the evening. The kitchen was spacious and great to cook for the group.
The house was very nice, the boys enjoyed the family room, bunk beds and fishing off the dock. The fire pit was great too. Overall, a great place to stay.
We had a wonderful three-day getaway at this cozy lake house. The place was relaxing, with beautiful views that made our stay even more enjoyable. It was the perfect spot to unwind with our family and dogs. We truly had a great time and would love to come back!
Great place for a visit to SW Michigan! The lake is beautiful and the house was really comfortable. Perfect place for myself, my son, and our dog. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful family getaway at this beautiful lakefront home. The setting is peaceful and relaxing, with a quiet lake perfect for unwinding. The house itself was spotless, comfortable, and had thoughtful updates that made our stay even more enjoyable. Everything felt well cared for and inviting. A perfect spot to slow down, spend quality time together, and create great memories.
We loved our stay at the “lake house”! It was a perfect location and offered us the ability to enjoy the quiet lake but also close enough to get into town and Lake Michigan. The kitchen was beautifully updated and had a gorgeous view of the lake from the big windows. My kids loved fishing off the dock and finding little turtles. We will definitely be back again!
We loved the house and the view. I didn’t really know what to expect, but I thought it said that it was 8 minutes from the beach. We still had a great time. The dishwasher would not work, but the kitchen was beautiful. I loved that you left us laundry pods and wood for a fire.
