This house was even better in person! Plenty of sleeping spaces, the kitchen has everything you'd need to cook a meal, lots of DVDs to choose from, and everything was clean. The hosts are helpful and kind. We had a great time using the kayaks and boat on the beautiful lake! We have no complaints and would highly recommend this rental.

We took our 4 sons. The space was great! There’s a lake to fish within a 5 minute walk. The views are great for deer, goats and cranes! Plenty of room for kids to run! Great outdoor deck for relaxing and watching nature. The firepit is awesome! Would totally recommend! The owners live near by and were really helpful. Would stay here again when exploring the UP!
