Our stay at the Lakehouse was wonderful! Everything was as described and more. Very clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed the numerous outdoor gathering areas, I think we used every one of them at some point. The weather didn't really cooperate the first couple days, but we enjoyed our time inside all the same, playing games and relaxing. We've already talked about returning sometime. Thank you for having us.

Check in was easy. The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The whole house was very clean! All the beds were comfortable and clean. The bedrooms were all a nice size. Plenty of pillows and blankets. More seating in the family room (fireplace) would be nice. We seemed to be in that room and the kitchen the most. It was nice having two decks so people could spread out. The firepit was nice too!!The chip basket and wine were a nice welcoming touch!!Free coffee was another bonus!!We have rented different houses for 6 years. This was the nicest!! Not having the boat at the house was the only drawback. I understand why. I was glad we found the marina across the bay for only 20 per night.Thank you for renting to us!! We made many happy memories!!

Great place to stay

The house is clean and in a very quiet neighborhood. The lake views are beautiful and there is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy it. The kitchen is well stocked, the house manager communicates quickly, and check in/check out is very easy.

Amazing Experience

The moment we pulled into the driveway, we felt the "vacation at the lake" had started. The beautiful home and accommodations were exactly what we were looking for! We had great communication with the property managers from the time we booked. They had recommendations for attractions around the area, restaurants, etc. This is what we were waiting to experience with a VRBO property. It will definitely be an annual stay for our family!

Golf Getaway

Had a wonderful experience. Great communication throughout the process, and the accommodations were top-notch. Plenty of space and great views of the lake (it faces West, so the sunset was pretty spectacular). We were playing golf at Sand Valley, so we chose this location since it is so close. Will definitely be staying here again next year!
