We had a wonderful stay at Lake Life Landing. The cabin is as advertised. Had everything we needed. Stacie was very east to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again!
Great property on a nice lake. We loved being on a lake and being so close it Lake Michigan. Communication with the owner was great. When we arrive the pier was unfortunately covered in bird poop, leaving it unusable. We notified the owner of this and she came the next day and clean it.
Had a wonderful stay!!! It was incredibly peaceful and quiet. I’ve honestly never experienced that much quiet at any VRBO I’ve stayed at. We arrived on Tuesday and didn’t see a single boat on the lake until late Thursday…and it was just the one pontoon boat out fishing.It is definitely a great value for the price. I don’t have any complaints as everything was as I expected, or better in some cases. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a nice peaceful getaway without breaking the bank. They’ll also throw in a bald eagle if you keep your eyes open. I even managed to snap a picture of him.Words of advice: write down your entry code before you get to the property. Cell service is a bit spotty and took some time to open the message with the code once we arrived. I was nervous thinking I’d have to drive away to get better service…LOL!
