Wonderful

We had a wonderful stay. The house was clean, well stocked, and had all the amenities one would want and/or need. The lake is beautiful and the mooring worked terrific for our boat. The bedrooms are well positioned and accommodated our group of 16 very well. We had a great time and I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a Northern Michigan adventure.

Great trip!

Hosts were very accommodating. House was exactly as shown online with great dock, swim area and water toys. We loved so much, we tried to book again but the house was already full over a year in advance. Our loss. Someone else’s gain.

Family vacation

Such a wonderful spot. So relaxing! The lake is amazing ! We felt very safe just letting our grandkids play in the beautiful blue water with a sandy bottom. They love the kayaks and paddle board. We rented a boat and a jet ski. Everything is convenient! Cute little town with an awesome farmers market. Would definitely recommend.There were 12 of us. 5 kids 13 and younger.

The house was immaculate upon arrival. Easy access with a code for electronic door locks. Grocery store less than a mile away has everything you need and then some. Town center is cute, pubs, ice cream etc.The shallow water out back with its sandy bottom was a HUGE hit with the little ones. Small boat dock allowed for temporary passenger loading for day on the lake. Overall, outstanding.
