About the host
Hosted by Bob Lett
A blended family who loves the outdoors. PA and MI natives who can't wait to share our lakefront home for you to make memories with your family and loved ones.
Why they chose this property
It has always been a dream to own a home on the lake. It is only fitting that this home's original owner is named George and so is my grandfather who this is a tribute to. Sitting on the deck listening to the wildlife and activities on the water allows you to unplug, relax, and enjoy all that Pure Michigan has to offer.
What makes this property unique
This home is located just minutes to the spider lake boat ramp and only 10 miles from downtown traverse city.
