Fall Vacation

We had a fabulous stay. The property was beautiful and our grandchildren had a great time on the beach. Everything in the house was great and we enjoyed our time together as a family. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay! 10min walk from downtown. The outdoor patio was a great space to enjoy while there. Edwin was super friendly and gave us some great tips on where to go and even a little history on the area. One of the first things you should know is that this is a carved out space of the boat house, it is not a house on its own. If you like to get rest during the day(like we tried), there was a lot of noise from a neighbor doing construction and on another night while in the bedroom around 8pm you can hear a full conversation being had from the room upstairs which kept me from getting rest. There are no TVs on the property and it did feel very small, trying to get 4 luggages packed before leaving was a Challenge as you barely had enough floor or tablebspace to lay things out. This is not a place for people who don't like tight quarters. Another thing that seemed like a miss was that we were only provided 2 rolls of TP for a group of 4 for 2 nights which is just annoying that you have to go out and find TP somewhere because host didn't provide enough. They did provide shampoo and one set of towels we had to reuse throughout the stay. Overall I'd say this is ok but I'm not sure it's made entirely clear by the property description that you are not in a house on its own, you are sharing a house boat with its own entrance and closed off living space and kitchen.

A great base for adventure.

We loved the location of the cottage because Moomers is one of our favorite spots up north! We also took a day trips to Sleeping Bear Dune, a winery, Mission Point lighthouse, and golfed at a couple of golf courses. The proximity to Traverse City was a plus - we had to do a quick trip into town! Our only negative was the condition of the kayaks and paddle boards: one kayak had sand fleas, so we didn’t use it. And the fin on one of the paddle board was damaged.

As wonderful as advertised!

Our family of nine had just a fabulous time this past week. My wife and I invited our two sons, and their families for a week. Their 6 year old kids loved everything from the bunk beds and swimming beach. It's conveniently located to Traverse City, Interlochen, and the Sleeping Bear Dunes!

A little slice of heaven

This property worked out fabulously for our family vacation. Very spacious, beautiful view off the back deck and nice beach for water access and firepit in the evening. The Kitchen & Laundry Room were well stocked. The host was very responsive to an issue that came up during our stay and took care of it immediately. The only disappointing thing was that we had to leave! I would highly recommend this property!

Beautiful property/view!

Came with all adult family to visit wineries/distilleries. Unfortunately it rained every day so hiking and pontooning was cancelled. We did get in a round of golf tho it rained on the last 3 holes and was a bit beyond chilly! Would definitely stay in their house again. Comfortable beds, more than enough room! Kayaks - which one of our party did use! Loved our stay!

Lovely week on Silver Lake

The property was even nicer than the pictures on VRBO. The kitchen had all the pots,pans, dishes, etc. that you need . The beds were comfortable & the bathrooms were spotless. Our grandkids enjoyed their bunk room with the large tv. Everyone loved sitting around the fire pit in the evening. We had a great week enjoying the many adventures offered when visiting ‘Up North’.

One of the best

The house was fantastic. I’ve never stayed at a place with so many items to use. From cookware to beach toys to stuff to do in the yard. Normally you never have enough of anything. We packed and took a lot of things to stay busy And use and never unpacked any of it. The little beach at the house was perfect for the little kids. The lake was very nice and not overly busy. I’d recommend this house to anyone. The owner personally text us a few times before the stay and was very responsive to inquiries.

It just doesn't get any better.

Perfect location on the perfect lake. The swimming never stopped, the sand castles were built, the fishing competition was hot and heavy, and the kayak and paddle board were huge hits. Being close to Traverse City was really convenient, and offered many places for meals and desserts. I was so impressed by the owner's quick responses to my questions. He was so helpful. The house was stocked with much more than we usually find -- we had to buy much less than usual. It all added up to the perfect vacation for us, our children and our grandchildren.

Large family friendly house

The entire family (2 grandparents, 4 adult children, 4 grandchildren) loved the house and the location. We were very close to all of the things that we like to do when we visit the Traverse City area: beach on small lake for the little ones, close to Lake Michigan for all, great sight seeing and unique shopping. We've stayed at many different places in the TC area over the years and this is one of the most convenient locations we've ever stayed. The home was clean, well maintained and extremely family friendly. The young kids loved having new toys to play with, the dvd collection was quite impressive and the fishermen in our group never went more than 10 minutes without a nibble on their line. The description and pictures of the house and property were accurate. We would love to come back again!

Best rental with it all!

This rental had SO much room for our family including 2 one year olds! Super baby friendly! It was also the most well stocked rental home we've seen! Even had a crockpot and soap to use! We had an amazing time making memories while fishing or hanging out around the camp fire in the provided Adirondack chairs! Was also in the perfect location around the corner from the grocery store and minutes to downtown Traverse City. We're already talking about next year. * this rental does have well water so make sure to purchase your own water for coffee. It also does not have whole home A/C but the upstairs bedrooms all had their own window units and there was one in the great room as well. This ended up working out great for us!

Perfect for our needs!

House was perfect for our extended family's trip from 6/18/16-6/25/16! Trip consisted of: My wife and I and our 3 children (ages 8, 5 & 2). Kids room was PERFECT for them. Only advice potentially bring a baby gate if you have a toddler. Her father/step mom, aunt/uncle, and grandmother. The 3 rooms upstairs accommodated them easily and the king bedroom downstairs was convenient for my wife and I to be near the kids yet have our own room. Sandy beach front area was perfect for us to sit, enjoy the weather, have the kids play, etc...etc... Location on the lake was somewhat secluded but overall the lake was not very busy at all last week. The upstairs deck right off the living room was great as well. Spent plenty of time hanging out listening to music, playing cards, etc..etc... Silver Lake is very convenient to downtown Traverse City. My wife's family has been coming to this lake for a very long time and our kids make 5 generations now of Silver Lake swimmers in her family. For a while, they had rented the same cottage but due to us now having kids of our own, we needed to upgrade. This is the second house we've rented since we've had 3 kids with her extended family and will definitely reach back out to Troy. Already looking forward to the next trip likely in 2018. Only downside (and very minor downside and will not deter us from renting this house again) was the lack of a bathroom downstairs. Other than that, this was perfect for us. Thanks Dave, Alison & Family

Family vacation in TC area.

We loved this property. We are an “outdoorsy” family so being right on the water and able to swim and play in the sand with our grandchildren was the best. We also enjoyed downtown traverse city and driving into the Leelanau peninsula.

A wonderful family trip!

Highly recommend renting this house. My extended family with 6 adults and 2 children stayed here. The house was *extremely* well appointed and had an incredible view. The owner was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. The house is about 15 minutes from Traverse City. We went on a day trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes, which was only 40 minutes away. We were also able to rent a pontoon from the local boat launch (Boats Up North) and drive around the lake for an entire day. Grocery stores and anything you would need is within a 3-10 minute drive. Our family made many memories, and the house was a big part of that!

We recently stayed at Ag Lago for a week and it was fantastic. House was clean and wonderfully appointed with everything you might need.

What a lovely week!

We had such a wonderful week on Silver Lake. The home was fully stocked with everything we needed and beautifully clean. We spent most of our time down at the beach or splashing in the water! We especially loved how shallow the water near the beach was because we have 4 boys who swim at different levels. I wish we could go back today! It was truly a delightful week.

About the host

Hosted by Troy

We are in love with the area and have been vacationing here for years. This is where we will retire and we are eager to share our love of the area with you.

Why they chose this property

This property had everything on our wish list. Nice sandy beach, good boating, tons of room for our entire extended family were the things that hooked us. Plus it's 10 minutes from some of the best dining in the state of Michigan.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to Interlochen truly intrigues us, we plan on taking a concert or two there, I would try it if you can. You can see the fireworks from the house for home games from the beach bums and Traverse City is right there!
