Fun times

Nice little property just outside of town. Easy to get to the boat launch. We enjoyed our stay. The house was very quaint. Definitely worth the stay. NOTE! Everything closes by eight so plan ahead for food and drinks.

Wonder stay in Central Lake

Excellent communication with the host. The house was clean and well maintained. Great supplies in the house. Nice showers and bathrooms. We had a fire outside in the fire pit with the wood provided. I highly recommend this property if you are visiting Torch Lake or Bellaire. Great stay!!

Anniversary

We stayed here for our anniversary weekend. We had a good time. It’s a great place if you want to unplug as the area does not have the greatest reception. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area along with Central Lake itself. Some places are like 20-30 min but it’s like 40-50 min from bigger cities like Charlevoix and Petoskey. I’d keep that in mind. All in all the stay was great. The house is older so a little stuffy, but they do have ac units and plenty of fans. I WOULD RETURN.

Great Little Getaway

Bob was quick to respond. We were just down the street from the lake which was nice. Bonfire pit out back was a great end to the day. King bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend the pizza place in town.

Cool place

We had a great time staying at the home in Central Lake. The place was very clean and the home owners were super nice and accomodating. The home was within walking distance to town where there were a few stores , restaurants and cafes. They even offered a golf cart taxi service if you didn't feel like walking. We would go back for sure

Cute clean house perfect for a weekend away!

place was perfect for my co workers and me as a weekend get away before we head back to work. Located in a small town about 40 mins drive to traverse city. The house was actually much bigger than I thought it would be based on pictures. Also there were many self care items available, which was great since I lost my toothbrush! Thanks again!

Quiet little house

The house is just outside of a small little town which was nice. It was close enough to bigger towns where we went to do some site seeing. The only thing we wished was that the TV in the master worked and that there was a way to watch at least local channels before bed in the living area.

Enjoyable stay!

The house was clean, well maintained and stocked with all the necessities. The owners went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and included small toiletries and even put candies on the pillows. We would definitely stay again! If you stay here make sure you go to Fudgy’s for ice cream. 😀
