We all had a good time on the property. We have zero complaints. Any minor hiccup we had was taken care of asap, the neighbors nearby were very friendly. We had such a wonderful experience we would consider visiting again.
Great place to stay—-kids especially had a lot of fun. Would go again.

Great hole for families or even groups
Loved the proximity to Crystal Mountain and Traverse City. We were there in the winter so no lake fun, but I’m sure that would be even better.
Highly recommend this place.
We had a great time at the lake. It was a small lake, but the fishing was decent, and there was very little traffic. Given the opportunity, I will definitely stay here again.
Great experience. We enjoyed the quiet serene surroundings. The cabin was roomy, with many separate areas to gather. The beach/lake was wonderful for the warm days that we experienced.
Perfect spot for our big family. Weather wasn’t great to enjoy the outdoors but the home provided lots to do inside. Many kudos to the ping pong table and indoor video games!
We enjoyed this place a lot. The kitchen was large and accommodated our family. The lower level bunk room worked well for singles and we had plenty of bathrooms. Great Lake view.
we had total 21 people (5 families) and enjoyed staying in this house. Good view and pretty enough space at kitchen. It was perfect choice to pick up this house for our vacation.
This is a hidden gem of a place that I would book again and again. The sunsets were amazing, the lake was perfect, and the home a great place to celebrate family with fun! We loved it and Andrew the owner is a great person to deal with.
Just got back from a 4 night stay and am blown away by this property. Spacious, extremely clean and has everything you need for a great beachfront vacation. Days were spent swimming, canoeing, paddling and fishing! Thank you for an AMAZING trip! Will definitely be booking again (and again)!
It fit our group of four families nicely. The only con would be the check out process. There's a lot to get done in a short amount of time the day you leave. Would definitely stay there again.
We had 24 family members staying here for a girls weekend. The bunk room was a major hit, the long benches with the dining room table was another bonus. The kids enjoyed the tree house, adults enjoyed sitting on the deck. Plenty of bathrooms and fridge space for this large group. Great stay over all and I would return!

Superior house on a clear lake with sandy beach
This house was well equipped in all areas. The kitchen and eating area easily accommodated our large family. We would use again! Close to many Michigan attractions. Nice people to rent from. Beautiful setting!
