Lovely home ready for adventures

Came for our annual boys retreat. My son and my nephews for a weekend of fishing, kayaking, games and campfires. We were not disappointed. More games than you could play in a week, including a custom escape room tailored to the house’s history. Fishing was fair, and the lake was awesome for kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding with beautiful views of course! It was too cold to swim, but the lake is healthy, so I have little doubt it’s great when it warms up. The kitchen is fully stocked with just about any pan or utensil you could possibly need, including a filtered water, coffee machine and kerig. Everyone enjoy the stay and we’d rent again!

Lovely lake house!

Sue was communicative and kind, we really appreciated that the kitchen was spacious and well stocked. The bedrooms were comfortable and the two basement bedrooms can sleep 4 people each (with bunkbeds and trundle). The property has everything that you would need for lake fun--paddle boards, kayaks, life vests, hammocks, etc. Our only thing was that it's very cold in the basement when you run the AC, and, being close to the lake, there were spots of goose poop and lots of cobwebs that we had to clean. Our group was pretty mobile, but if anyone has mobility issues, the walkway down to the lake is not level and you could not navigate with a walker or a stroller very easily. Overall, location is picturesque!!! You cannot convince me that there is a better lake, but be aware that the noise from the racetrack IS loud (the weekend we were there was a BMW event). Overall, lovely rental.

Beautiful Property

We have a rather large family, and there was something to do for everyone. The kids spent all day fishing, the adults enjoyed the all the kayaking and SUPS. We especially loved the fact that the lake is small and we could let the kids go out on the kayaks and not have to worry. This really is the perfect place. We loved it here.

My husband and I were in town for a wedding and decided to add a little r&r to the trip. How perfect was this house to stay with every amenity being thought of. On top of that the owner Sue was beyond helpful and a pleasure to interact with planning for the stay. Thank you for opening your home to us! It was wonderful!

Wonderful Lake Home & Property

We had an amazing time. We can’t thank you enough for making your wonderful place available for our vacation. We really enjoyed the great fishing. We caught lots of fish and several large mouth bass and a pike. Our family loved using all the boats and swimming. Of course we had a campfire and s’mores. The house was perfect for our family and stocked with everything you could think of. We would not hesitate to come back and make some more great memories.

Great location

Our family had a wonderful time. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed to prepare and serve meals. Our grandkids loved the kayaks, fishing and the aqua lily. The fishing was amazing. The lake is very clean, we were swimming every day. The negatives and that’s why the 4 rating and not 5, is the trundle bed in the downstairs bedroom didn’t raise up. And both the beds in the downstairs bedroom(full/queen), and the bedroom in the 2nd floor have dips in the middle of the mattresses so those were uncomfortable for the family members sleeping on those rooms. Also the temperature in the upstairs bedroom was very warm compared to the rest of the house. The negatives are just for information and not meant to deter anyone from staying here. Overall our family had a wonderful time and have booked our stay for next year.

Idyllic stay

The home was spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, and immaculate. The owner was quick to respond to all queries and very accommodating. There were lots of nice little details: fresh flowers on the kitchen island, clean beach towels and throws, tons of water toys and board games. Both indoors and outdoors, there are large comfortable spaces to come together and enjoy family time, as well as comfy little spots to have a one-on-one conversation or curl up alone with a book. The kitchen was large enough to accommodate multiple cooks and had everything we needed to prepare meals. We made ample use of the water toys, especially the kayaks, paddle boards, inner tubes, and noodles. Life vests were provided. The lake water was very clear and there was minimal motor boat traffic on it. The location at the tip of a peninsula makes the back yard, which slopes to the lake, very secluded. The yard and large back decks face the undeveloped side of the lake, which adds to the sense that nature surrounds you. It was very serene. There is lots of outdoor seating: a fire pit, numerous seating groups on the decks and patio, a screened porch, and a picnic table by the water. We really spent almost all of our time out-of-doors, but did enjoy the pool table and board games during the one day when there were late afternoon and evening thunderstorms. Let me add that since our stay was during the pandemic, I particularly appreciated how clean the house was as well as the fact that blankets, coverlets, and throws, as well as sheets and towels, were freshly laundered. The mattresses were very comfortable and the towels nice and fluffy. Over the past 25 years, we have stayed in innumerable vacation rentals all over the U.S. and in parts of Europe; this was one of the cleanest and best-equipped homes in which we have stayed.

What a wonderful home base for our trip to celebrate a wedding! The home had plenty of space for our family of eight and was a hit for the little kids, the teens, and the adults due to the many games and water craft available. This home was the most well stocked Vrbo in which I’ve stayed, with all the household essentials and kitchen amenities a family could need. It was impeccably clean and well arranged. We could hear the track at road America at times (of course) but even the revving engines couldn’t spoil the tranquility of the home and surroundings. The kids are asking when we can return and we are still on the road home!

Beautiful Lake House

I cannot express how amazing this property is. The owners have thought of everything to make this place so homey and comfortable. I wish we were staying longer. From the comfy blankets next to the couch, to the stashes of beach towels, the bathroom accessories and fully stocked kitchen. The lakeside has all the water toys you could want. The raft in the lake was not accessible as the ladder rungs were installed upside down so unable to step on them, but they can easily fix. The outdoor chess set was a huge hit and the outdoor lights at night added a touch of magic. Loved lounging in the hammocks and using the outdoor grill and patio! Only suggestion to improve is to sharpen or replace the knives in the kitchen. If I could give this place 10 out of 5 stars I would. Brilliant escape!

We were in town with family from several parts of the country to watch the motorcycles at Road America. This home was a perfect option. Very close to the track. Easy for family dinners and dinners together. We got to enjoy fishing, fire pit and water toys when not at the races. And the sunset was gorg!

We have rented out many of our properties over the years and decided to use VRBO for this new property to streamline registrations for our customers. My husband and I want to do the best we can to make you feel comfortable and relaxed on your vacation. When we go on vacation, we love comfortable beds and linens, lots of comfy and clean seating arrangements, activities for the kids and grandkids and a general sense of cleanliness and well taken care of property. We hope to help you build some great memories here at Birch Point.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property for the area and the beautiful, clean lake. So excited that my grandkids and I can paddle out to the little island and back. The point is nice to swim on and you can see an abundance of fish through the clear water. Nice and quiet yet we can walk to Road America for some noisy fun. Elkhart Lake is 3 miles away and has a beach, Tiki Bar, shops and restaurants and an adorable ambiance. There are 18 golf courses in the area, a deer petting zoo, winery and tons of places to reasonably rent hydrocyles, pontoon boats and more.

What makes this property unique

Private lake point with swimming raft, pier, lots of watercraft and privacy. Up north feel but easy to get to. Right off a main highway. Coming from the south is almost all interstate driving. Garage parking. Asphalt circle for the kids to play on scooters or bikes. Lots of water toys. Nice upscale kitchen and appliances. Very clean and comfy.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
