The second, Hill Top House, (940 sq. ft.) has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The third home, the Lake Front House (940 sq. ft.) contains 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, all with excellent views of the water. All three homes are equipped with full kitchens, dishwashers, washers and dryers. Enjoy your own private house while vacationing with extended family or friends.

Additionally, we have included a pool table, foosball table, darts, and plenty of board games or card games. The outdoor space in the center of the property is perfect for campfires, games, relaxing, playing on the swing set, or just enjoying the stunning view of the lake. The property is fenced and contains a steel sea wall. The home provides a 60 ft. dock capable of handling multiple boats. Enjoy the included canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards. The owners continue to seek out and add amenities, check back often for additional features. Many outdoor and indoor games provided.

About the host

Hosted by Holly A Schienke

Host profile image
I am a Registered Nurse, and my husband Tim is a Mechanical Engineer. We have four beautiful children ages 2,11, 13, and 15. We bought this home to make memories that will last a lifetime with our children. My mother and several uncles also have homes on this lake making it a great family getaway. It has been a dream come true.

Why they chose this property

This property is a second vacation rental for us. We have another property in Bellaire Michigan that we rent out which has been very successful for us. We have family on Van Etten Lake. We bought this home to watch our 4 children grow up and make memories for them to enjoy for a lifetime, while spending more time with their grandparents and other family on the Lake. We hope you will share those same memories with your friends and family.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefit of this home is the large private fenced in location with multiple homes. The spacious yard with 200 feet of lake frontage allows plenty of room and privacy for you and your family/friends. Traveling with extended family or friends can be challenging when staying in one house. This allows the opportunity spread out and enjoy a vacation while having your own space to get away to. It is truly a unique experience.
The home offers expansive views of the lake and overlooks Loud island. The property is well shaded and has ample room for activities and games outside without disturbing the neighbors. You can often see eagles flying on this end of the lake, as well as geese, ducks, and swans.
This property is located close to amazing beaches on Lake Huron as well as close proximity to the Ausable River. It is also extremely close to Wurtsmith Airforce base, if you are lucky you may be able to
