The house was even more amazing than the pictures! We enjoyed spending mornings and evenings out on the porch -the lake was even more beautiful because the trees were starting to change colors! Everything about this stay was better than we had hoped. We would highly recommend this for your get-away.

Was a great property with amazing views! Well stocked with your cooking needs and was very clean. Pictures represented the house well. Good proximity to either Traverse City or shores of Lake Michigan. Secluded and private. Amazing game room if you had children and they needed activities. We retirees enjoyed it!

Beautiful fall setting. Bonfire pit and pavilion area. Fifteen minute drive from everywhere we went. Lake Ann is adorable. Lake Ann Brewing, Stone Oven, grocery store and park. Home is spacious and well laid out. Only thing that I didn’t realize was there was not a dishwasher and could use a few more basics like baggies and tin foil. Great weekend and lovely place to stay in the fall

Clean, cozy, wonderfully private family space. Plenty of space for whole family. Kitchen was well stocked to be able to cook/grill at home. Private but still within close driving distance of all major attractions in the erea. Beautiful area! Would definitely recommend and/or book again!

Our family of six had a great experience at Hemlock. The house is unique (loved the back porch/seating), spacious and clean. The location is in a beautiful, well situated, wooded area, just 5 minutes from the quaint downtown of Lake Ann, and just 15 mins from Trav City shopping (Grand Traverse Mall). The large property offers full privacy and includes a nice fire pit area and tremendous, large, covered pavilion. Use Google Maps to find it (Apple Maps took us to the wrong driveway). Amenities/ appliances were as listed but would’ve loved a dishwasher. We’d definitely plan another family trip here.

This home is amazing! The quiet setting and beautiful lake, plenty of space and room for large groups. The decor and landscape is beautiful, comfy beds, 3 bathrooms , the pavilion and back porch, fire pit, it was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about this place and how gracious our hosts were in dropping off an xtra table for our party held indoors.It was the perfect place for my daughter’s special event.Thank you Teresa and Craig, we will be back and are certainly passing the word around about this gem of a place.Katrina
