Great experience
This little houseboat is adorable! It is tiny, but was perfect for my daughter and me. I love Fife Lake, so to stay on this charming little place, letting the waves rock me to sleep was perfect! I would stay there again...a little pricy, but still perfect.
This was an accidental hit when looking for an overnight stay between Traverse and Albion while traveling with my wife. Overall, it was a really sweet relaxing stay. Weather was flawless, lake was glass, party shop had plenty of wine… Maybe a little pricey for some for what you’re getting (it’s tiny vs motel), but if you’re adventurous it’s pretty neat.
