My family and I have been vacationing on Lake Michigan for many years....and this stay was our favorite! The house was lovely and the views from every window were awesome...like staying in a treehouse with a beautiful view of the lake. The owner was extremely helpful and we would highly recommend this home. We would love to stay again next year!Owner response: I am delighted you had a good time. We worked with the architect to create a design which would accentuate the view. The interior is decorated in neutrals to keep your eye focused on the windows which serve as large works of art.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at your lovely home so much! The house was clean and very warm and welcoming, and my son and I really appreciated your book selection. The views from the house and the deck were beautiful and we enjoyed having the beach all to ourselves every day. The overall ambiance of the place was so peaceful and relaxing that we changed our plan for a day trip to Mackinaw Island because we wanted more time at the house! We would love to come back sometime. Julie S., Clarkston, MIOwner response: I am glad you had a good time. Our location is great for getting away from it all.

We greatly enjoyed our week in the Lello House. The home is incredibly comfortable and inviting. The kids loved swimming and riding their bikes into town for pop and candy bars! My husband and I enjoyed the walks on the beach and the gorgeous sunsets; as well as the orange bread at the Good Hart General store and the crepes!Did you find this review helpful?

We love the location as Cross Village is a quiet and peaceful place in the world. The house is warm and inviting. While we kind of struggled with the idea of having no television, we actually have not missed it at all. Instead we are laughing, talking, listening to music, playing games, and sharing quality family time. The beach is lovely.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Wrapped up the week wonderfully with a rafting trip down the Sturgeon River. We sure enjoyed sunsets, sleeping in, and meals together. This was a great way to bring our family together. We have traveled across Michigan and along the West coast together and found this house to be most enjoyable.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

This place is peaceful and amazing. A bad day here is ten times as great as a good day back home. Crystal waters just put at peace, whether calm or roughed up. Our family enjoyed everything about this house and location. The Tunnel of Trees was by far one of the most beautiful amazing things we have seen.Did you find this review helpful?
