There was lots of sleeping space for us (3 families) and a large kitchen and room for the kids to run outside and inside. The only downside for me was the walkway and steps from the driveway to the house. My wife is handicapped and that made it a little difficult getting her in and out with a wheelchair otherwise the house woirked perfectly for us.

This trip was for 10 women ages 55 to 83. The first thing everyone noticed was how clean this house was. The kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, extremely clean. We loved that there were no bunk beds annd everyone had their own bed. Wi-Fi worked great. We never did figure out where the remote for the basement tv was. But, that’s ok. The house had plenty of room for everyone to spread out.

Great Lake House

Our family stayed here for a weekend wedding in Traverse City and the location and house were amazing! Plenty of room for the 17 of us and an amazing view! We will likely be staying here again in the future!

Lovely trip beautiful sunsets

The pictures don't do it justice. The house was perfect for our extended family. The house was well stocked, and you get to watch the most beautiful sunsets every evening. Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise with us.

Wedding party house

BEAUTIFUL, if we ever have a big group staying in the traverse city area again, we will definitely see if this property is available. Gorgeous house and scenery, great location and just a few short (steep) steps, to the lake.

Beautiful sunsets!

Very nice house, plenty of space for our group, a few issues with appliances(coffee maker, washer). We rented the pontoon for one day and had a really good time. Downstairs bedrooms were very cold. Overall , we really enjoyed our stay.

We had a great stay! The house was perfect for our group of 13 girls celebrating a bachelorette party—plenty of room for everyone and very comfortable. The location was great, and the lake access was definitely a plus. The listing pictures definitely don’t do it justice—we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The only downside was that the host did not respond to any of our messages, which made communication difficult. Overall, the house itself was wonderful and worked out really well for our trip.

Great Family Retreat

Very nice property overlooking beautiful lake. Well stocked kitchen. Very clean, enough to feel comfortable with babies crawling on the floors. Ceiling fans need cleaning, but other than that the property was excellent.
