Boater’s retreat

Place had everything we needed to relax after a long day on the lake. Very peaceful neighborhood with in walking distance to the town for food, supplies, etc. The side yard worked perfectly for our boat, us, and our dog. Owner was a great host.

This property was a nice home to stay in. Lots of thoughtful details and great communication with host. A few small things - like the barn doors in front of the laundry machines - made us scratch our heads for a few minutes. Overall, though - this was a very nice place with lots of value and amenities right in the heart of Central Lake - close to the village grocery, distillary, farm stands, Torch Lake, Bellaire, and more.

Great little place

Came to the area to enjoy northern Michigan. The house is in a great location to do so. Very close to Bellaire so if you enjoy Short’s Brewing you will love it:) We could be at several area lakes quickly and we really enjoyed that. Also great eating in the area as well. Our dog came with us and having the large fenced backyard was a bonus! Woulda stay here again!

Great home in Central Lake

Sherri’s home in Central Lake is a great place for families and small groups. We originally chose it when we only searched for a place that allowed a dog, but we didn’t end up having our pet and still thought it was great for anyone. There are lots of thoughtful touches that make it very comfortable, and it’s an easy base for exploring the area.

No snow... but still fun.

We loved the home, its modern with all the amenities we could have needed for our stay. Large kitchen table for all of us to share dinner, drinks, and games. Exactly, what we needed for a weekend ski trip to Shanty. Would stay again if visiting the area, quick drive to Shanty Creek and downtown Bellaire.

40th birthday local "staycation"

This home is perfect. Very beautiful inside, the large yard with privacy fence is wonderful. Communication with landlord was very pleasant! So close to everything central lake has to offer. All appliances are nice and newer. We felt very spoiled!!!! 5 out of 5 for everything!!!! We came from Petoskey for a little 40th bday get away for husband. Landlord allowed us to bring our dogs which is very important to us. And to top off a good stay, U of M won!
