Overall very satisfied. Only disappointing factors were the lack of a dishwasher (was listed as an amenity), and some of us found the beds too soft. Kitchen was well equipped and we really appreciated the Christmas tree. The men enjoyed the large tv for football, and the pool table (usually at the same time)!Would recommend!

Spotless and comfy property

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was very clean, with comfortable beds and sofa. The pool table (though a little wobbly) was a nice bonus, but the big draw for us was the hot tub. If you're staying there in the winter, make sure you enjoy it. We went hiking on the Sleeping Bear Dunes and on a couple of other trails - so many options! And for a local treat, The Common Good Bakery is outstanding - it's about a 15-minute drive but 100% worth it. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable!

Great stay!

We did a family trip with young children and a couple of senior citizens. This was a very accommodating place. A stones throw from a park with a sandy beach and very clean and child friendly Long Lake. It is about 15 minutes from downtown and about 25 minutes from Sleeping Bear Dunes. Plenty of room to sleep for the 7 of us and a massive backyard with a fire pit. It was well stocked with the essentials and even a bunch of firewood (nice perk). Hosts were super responsive. Great stay!

House was clean and well stocked with kitchen items. Hot tub was good, however when the snow dripped off the roof on the house it was dripping on people in the hot tub. Definitely needs gutters in the back. Pool table was not in the best shape and needed to be tighten.
