Family summer vacation
We had a great 5 night stay as a family with 8 adults and 2 young children. The house was clean and stocked with toiletries, kitchen supplies, toys for the kids, games, and kayaks/peddle boat. The pool table and games were great for the one rainy day we had and late night fun. The bonfire pit was nice at night. The views were amazing from all 3 levels. We enjoyed sunsets from the deck and the large family room couch. We had tons of fun fishing off the dock and caught lots of blue gill, perch and bass. The beds were comfortable and the house was spacious. The location was convenient to stores and the Lakeland recreation for putt putt, go carts and batting cages. Communication was prompt and helpful. We recommend this vacation rental and would love to stay again!

Ladies trip!
The home is clean and beautiful! There was plenty of space and comfy beds. The bathrooms were very clean. We got great use of the kayaks and peddle boat! The location was great, with several restaurants/bars close-by. We like to cook and the kitchen had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the upper deck overlooking the lake, it was really nice! The neighbors were friendly. Great communication with the Hosts! We don’t have a bad thing to say about the experience. The gnats were in full force though, which eventually became humorous to watch a friend walk into a swarm :) so, bring your bug spray. Another great girls trip!

Annual family lake trip!
Every summer my family and by siblings’ families meet at a different lake in Michigan to spend a week together! This place fit all of our needs and then some!! The teens enjoyed the games and kayaks and nightly fire pit! The dock was perfect to dock our boat, and the lake provided plenty of fishing opportunities for the guys! The property was extremely clean and well appointed. There was plenty of room to sleep comfortably and spread out for all 12 of us! The hosts were super friendly and accommodated all of our needs and questions quickly and efficiently! We all agree there is no other place to visit! We will just come back to this place and enjoy it all over again!

Great Getaway
Our family of 5 and my brothers family of 4 stayed for three nights at the Anchors Away Getaway and we all had a great time!! It was a smooth experience from booking to checkout, I really appreciate Rob and Chelsea’s open communication to ensure we understand everything and all our questions answered fast. It was a beautiful house on the water with all the fun stuff needed to keep us entertained for our time there. It was also very clean and well stocked of the necessities like towels bedding and kitchen stuff. We give it 5 out of 5 stars and look forward to stay again!!
