Mid-sized cabin feel with close proximity to local favorite spots. Our stay here was SO much better than with other properties, strongly due to the quality of the property management team.

Lovely place to stay

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The cleanliness, proximity to the lake and slopes and restaurants were fantastic. The house is well stocked too! We also appreciated that the owners were readily available if we had any issues (but we didn’t). We highly recommend staying here!

Great family ski week!

Our family of five had a great week stay at this beautiful home! Great location near the lake and short drive to several ski resorts. WiFi was good - our only wish would be for a little better set up for a "work from home" - could have used a desk in one of the bedrooms with privacy. Overall a great stay!

Vacation

My family of four stayed for three nights. This property was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped with things needed to cook simple meals. It was quite hot in the area during the few days we were there, so we were thankful that there were fans in every bedroom.

Nice stay

Was just a short walk to the beach. This is a nice property in which we used the provided propane BBQ almost everyday. It was nice sitting on the patio and enjoying our meals outside. I should have brought a insect candle or torch because those bugs were out. Overall nice stay, we have an infant so the washer/dryer came in handy. We will come back for sure!

Great House!

Great property one block in from the lake. AvantStay were very responsive and made the process of check-in easy. We had one maintenance need and they were very quick to send someone out to help out. They even brought some extra baby proofing supplies to help our stay with a 1 year old go smoother. Very thoughtful.

Best Location in North Shore

We absolutely loved the location—right across the street from a stunning swimming beach and just steps away from great local spots like an amazing coffee shop, Gar Woods Grill & Pier, mini golf, and several other restaurants. The house itself was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable for our group. We had two families (4 adults and 3 kids) staying together, and while the space was a bit on the tighter side, it worked well for us. One thing to note: one of the main bedrooms didn’t have a closet, which made unpacking a bit tricky and we would have loved more pillows and blankets. Still, the overall experience was wonderful and the convenience of the location can’t be beat!

Beautiful home

The property itself was perfect. It was just two of us. I wanted a larger space to be able to spread out and just be comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed - great appliances. Bathrooms are very nice. Bed is very comfortable. The ad for the property is mostly accurate. The house is not across the street from the lake or Gar-Woods. It is a block up off the main road and Gar-woods, though close, is down the main road a little bit. Plus, no one told us about the construction that was taking place right on the main road a block in front of the house. The trucks worked very late and could be heard very early in the morning. Had to wear earplugs to ensure a full night sleep.
