Great visit!

We had a fantastic time with our extended family staying at your house! We each had plenty of space and found the house incredibly clean and updated. We rented a boat regularly to enjoy the lake, and the kids loved hanging out in the bottom floor with all of the games! We highly recommend this home to large or small groups.

Great Family Vacation House

This was our first experience with VRBO, and it turned out great. There was plenty of room for the 9 of us. The location is very convenient to lots of attractions such as hiking, kayaking, beaches, Sleeping Bear, and Traverse City. The game room was a big hit when we weren't out and about. Check-in was smooth and efficient. Communication with the hosts was clear and timely. Overall, a great place for a family vacation.

Family get together

We really liked the open concept of kitchen, dining area and living room area. It was nice to have the indoor entertaining activities like pool table, ping pong downstairs so you could still talk and visit upstairs. We took advantage of the fire pit and made s’mores, while enjoying the outdoors. We did walk down to beach several times and took advantage of the ice cream shop on way back.

Family reunion.

The house was exactly as shown in the photos, large, well stocked, clean and updated. The managers were available for questions. We loved the house. Is is a 5 minute walk from Settlers Park which is the beach access accross from a main road so that is the only drawback but we knew that prior to renting the house.
