Fun family time

This home is beautiful and has lots of extras to help make the stay easier (spices, baggies, toiletries, throw blankets, games, etc). The view of the lake and swan family is fantastic - especially with a cup of coffee from the screened in porch. Beds were very comfortable and space was as described. Would recommend!

Overall, everything was good. The fan over the bed in the master bedroom makes a lot of noise at higher setting. The fan in the master toilet is really loud and should be replaced. Otherwise, communication was excellent with the homeowner.

Family Time on the Lake

Clam Haven is a beautiful home inside and out to gather as a family to spend time together, enjoy nature and find a spot to slip away and spend time alone. The layout of the house was perfect for 8 adults and one baby. We will choose it again when coming to this slice of beauty in Michigan. Host is very responsive and hospitable. Thank you!

Great Friend Réunion Location

Met here with a group of adult friends and everyone loved the house and location. Private and scenic Clam Lake was a great hideaway from the business of Torch Lake, but it is a short boat ride to get to Torch or Bellaire. The use of the dock was wonderful and allowed a lot of flexibility throughout the day for different schedules and changing weather. We are highly likely to book again. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Best view on Clam Lake

We had the best time on our annual family summer vacation. The accommodations were perfect for our family with 4 teenagers. We did bring our pontoon and were able to enjoy both Lake Bellaire (35 min river ride) and the Torch Lake Sandbar (50 min ride). Cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Thank you!

Wonderful home & property

Family & friends stayed together here to celebrate 2 birthdays. We enjoyed boating on Torch, Clam, & Lake Bellaire. Loved the convenience of having our boat right here on the dock. Got to go out at night to see the Northern Lights! Lots of room in the house & plenty of ame items we enjoyed. Cooked most meals at the home & enjoyed the nice big kitchen & deck. We noticed that the home has been updated more since the listing photos. Comfortable beds & furniture. We loved it!

Amazing 3 day boat trip the Antrim chain of Lakes

It was myself and my wife, our 6 year old son and 1 year old daughter, my mother and another couple. It was both of the couple’s anniversary, and one of our birthdays. So plenty to celebrate! The house was top notch. It had everything we needed and plenty of room! The first day was rainy so we didn’t get on the boat until the evening, but it’s one of those houses you perfectly content hanging out at. Everything was very clean. Great location. Great dock to tie our 25’ pontoon up to. Shelly was great to communicate with. Great memories were made. We look foward to renting this place again !

Exceeded Expectations!

It all starts with excellent communication with the host before, during and after our stay. This rental has it all, from modern amenities to unique location. Extra large lot and the siting of the home produce privacy that is uncommon for a lakefront rental in that area. The weather was perfect so we didn't need to take advantage of the games or pool table. We didn't even turn the TV on the entire week. With golf, winery, brewery, a secluded beach, and boat rental all very close, the days filled up fast. Grilling and campfires at night equaled a perfect ending. Thanks Shelly and Chris for sharing. See you next year!

Great time!

We had a great time on Clam Lake. I only wish we had more time. The house was perfect. Very clean and everything we needed. We went to Bellaire one night for dinner and had a great time and even decided to go back the next day. We spent one day at Sleeping Bear Dunes too and that was awesome. We always wanted to spend some time in Northern MI and it didn't disappoint so we'll be back. The house was exactly what we were looking for.
