Beautiful lake house!
Such a great house in a beautiful setting! Access to the pontoon boat and other watercraft was such a bonus - we had hours of fun on the lake!What a nice touch to have gas for the boat and wood for the fire provided. The drive into traverse city for a day trip was easy, but had plenty of fun just hanging at the lake house!

Family Reunion Getaway
We enjoyed our stay so much! We did our family reunion here and the property and surrounding area entertained everyone (1- 80 years old)! If the property had it we used it. Everything was clean and in working order. The beds were comfortable and the rooms and bathrooms were spacious and fully stocked. Our recommendation for other groups staying here is to bring eye masks because there are no curtains anywhere and that morning sun is bright. But the view is beautiful and relaxing! The master bath has a door to the outside that also has no blinds so we used back garbage bags for privacy. All in all we loved everything and would definitely stay here again if we visit Traverse City in the future!

Spring Break Reboot
This was a beautiful property and great place to get away for spring break. It was still pretty cold mid-April so we didn't get to enjoy the boats and lake activities, but still enjoyed sitting by the fire and taking in the views. The hot tub was a great way to warm up too. The kids really enjoyed the game room and the house had everything we needed.
