Why the Owner Chose Gaylord

Gaylord fit our needs, as we wanted to enjoy the quiet and beauty of the outdoors, while still having the conveniences of a nearby city. Gaylord is home to many golf courses, lakes and beaches for summertime enjoyment, and it is also located in the middle of the Michigan Snow Belt, allowing us to ski, snowmobile and sled. Michaywe Owners Association also fit our needs as it has it's own indoor pool, beach and playground, perfect for our growing family.

The Unique Benefits at this House

Over the years, our family has had bonfires with s'mores, songwriting and games of "telephone", walks in the woods, bike rides, long days at the beach, snowmobile rides, quiet time with our own families as well as large family reunions, boating excursions, movie and game nights, fire-side chats and stargazing. As our children have grown, and we are lured by other vacation destinations, we have used our vacation home less and less. We are now offering it to others to enjoy as we have. Joining VRBO (only a month ago) has been a joy, as I have learned that mushroom hunting is a spring-time sport in Gaylord and also how to make a "dough boy" by an open fire.

Opal Lake Beach

This beach is used only by Michaywe members and guests. It is a quiet sandy beach with a clubhouse, bathrooms, volleyball net and a playground.

Michaywe Clubhouse and Pines Golf Course

Owner's Map of Gaylord

In 2000, our family set out to buy the perfect Up North vacation home. Our clan consisted of my husband and myself, (pregnant with our first child), my sister, her husband and their daughter Brittany, and my mom. After a few weekends looking around the northern part of the Lower Peninsula, two-thirds of us came upon the Pine House. That two-thirds convinced the other one-third (my husband and I) to buy the home sight-unseen, as they were so anxious to make it our own. We made the leap, and nine years later (and a total of six more children later) we are still enjoying our Up North vacation retreat.

    • What a beautiful home! There were 6 adults and 3 boys under age 6. We had plenty of room! The front yard was large, the street was quiet with little to no traffic. The back yard was spacious with an inviting hammock, a huge sandbox, and a large fire pit for roasting marshmallows. The boys enjoyed playing on the huge back deck. The covered front porch was great for our bikes and other toys! The Michawaye beach and pool are great! The kitchen was very well furnished with dishes and cooking utensils. It was very comfortable; we felt at home right away. Thanks, Beth! You were terrific to work with and you have a beautiful place!

    • We enjoyed the Pine House very much and couldn't ask for more really! It was very spacious, clean , and comfortable. There are many things to do nearby and we also got to see some deer in the forest which was very nice and provided a relaxing experience. We will definitely consider the Pine House next time were in Gaylord! -Thank You :)

    • The "Pine house" was a great little getaway in itself aside from all the activities in the area to partake of. It was clean, and had all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Our group was of 6 adults and 3 screaming toddlers, and since the house was not cramped the children were not bothersome one bit. They had a blast, especially watching the abundant amount of videos supplied by the owner. Also the owner was pleasant to work with and responded to any questions our group had. If we go back to this area for another getaway I will definately keep this house in mind! The only drawback, if you would call it that, was this house had no blender,(bummer!) so Maragarita night conveniently was changed to wine and beer. But we still had fun and made the most of it when the children finally went to bed! Thanks Again Beth...

      Homeowner Response:
      Thank you! I will for sure remedy the "only drawback." Your next stay will include a blender. I promise!
