Your home is beautiful with a breathtaking view! Great for games on the beach & makes for a perfect place to layout...Overall your home made for a perfect vacation! Everyone of us enjoyed ourselves & look forward to returning next year already. Adrienne & Josh Katke, Birmingham, Mi - June 2008
We picked the perfect spot for our family vacation. The soft sand beach, with swimming, kayaking & sunning, was the main focus for our group. At night, the 5 kids piled into the bunk rooms, while the 6 adults soaked in the peaceful beauty of the bay from the deck. Thank you for a most memorable stay. - Chris Philips – Aug 2, 2008
Thank you for having plush towels, lots of spices and a superb location! Loved the quiet loop for morning bike rides and the quiet water for wading. Kayaking was terrific and the bay was "blissful"! Lots of room for lots of fun. - The Semenoro family - August, 2008
This is our second summer vacation at one of the Lutz's homes-beautiful views of the water and warm, soft sand-comfortable beds-overall a home away from home. - The Ocharzek Family - August 20, 2008
We loved our first trip to Lake Michigan...We're coming back next summer! We LOVED the accommodations. Thanks. - Tray and Lisa Vedock - July 25, 2008

Our goal was to create Bliss Bay as a 5 Star Key West Vacation Home, but in Michigan! Here you'll find the perfect blend of charming small town feel, great sunny beach, and an ideal location with great restaurants, charming wineries just a walk away, and all the sailing, water skiing, wakeboarding, fishing, shopping, golfing, hiking, biking...really... must I go on???? It's the perfect combination of lovely wooded back yard with outstanding beach in the front. Fun and upscale, without being fussy, this place has it all!

FIVE REASONS YOU'LL LOVE BLISSBAY
1. BlissBay is perfect for families to share. It's the perfect safe, private and lovely setting to let the kids do their thing all day, while the parents do theirs.
2. In a beautifully wooded setting, BlissBay is both woodsy and beachy, with a lovely winding entry to a fabulous designer beach home with its deep flat sugar sand beach. The beach is like the beach you'd see at a luxury hotel, except all of the 320 FEET is ALL YOURS!
3. An adorable designer-decorated "Key West Beach House"! Most of an entire year was spent transforming this into the most fun beach houses ever. This house represents the things we liked BEST about other places. It’s kind of a mix of the best houses we saw in Hawaii, California, the Bahamas, Australia, and Key West. It's upscale, but not so upscale that you'll feel uptight about taking full advantage of everything. So that's it, upscale without the uptight!
4. Magnificent sunrises, with shady beach sunsets, and star filled evenings with a bonfire on the beach!
5. Nice owners who are itchin' to make this your best rental EVER! We never want a week to go by without a delighted guest. We listen to EVERYTHING you say and want you to go tell all your friends that this was absolutely the best place you enjoyed on vacation, EVER!

"Your home is beautiful with a breathtaking view! The property has more beachfront than any other home within walking distance. Great for games on the beach & makes for a perfect place to layout. The bunkhouse was a perfect spot for kids & adults. Our group would split up & half of them would catch an international soccer game. Satellite was key! Overall your home made for a perfect vacation! Everyone of us enjoyed ourselves & look forward to returning next year already. The owners are also a pleasure to work with. They brought us over a bottle of local wine % a tee shirt for our unborn baby. Thanks for a memorable week. Adrienne & Josh Katke (& Family) - Birmingham, Mi - June 2008
