Lake Louise getaway

We had a great vacation. The house was clean and was decorated very nice. This gave us time to relax and unwind, much needed. Loved the sound of the loon in the evenings.

Great Quiet Weekend

The place is extremely clean. Has some toys to help keep us occupied. The lake is pretty quiet, not a lot of motor traffic.

Great relaxing get-away

We absolutely loved the house and the location. We both needed to relax and unwind and The Resting Place was perfect for us. We felt very blessed to have the chance to be there for a few days. The house is excellent and well stocked. Sitting on a small quiet lake was so peaceful. We are were close enough to Gaylord or other places to get out when we wanted to but be "away" at the house when we wanted to.

I'm from Michigan and enjoy living in Northern Michigan and we wanted people to experience the rest and peace our lake house has brought to us.

Why they chose this property

The lake is peaceful and we feel so rested every chance we get to stay here when its not booked.

What makes this property unique

Great Lake view, 150' of shoreline not to close to other homes and the feeling like i'm camping but with the amenities of a nice remodeled cabin.
