Amazing! The absolutely perfect house for a family reunion, or for 2 or 3 families to share. The house is even bigger than the pictures show - our group of 11 could have been comfortable on the main floor & upstairs - without the 3 bedrooms & 2 pull-out coaches in the walk-out basement! The 5 bedrooms doesn't include a huge loft, where 6 or 8 can sleep comfortably!
Besides being so large, the house if so well furnished - it feels like an upscale hotel experience. The beds are huge, the linens first class, the furniture solid and comfortable. So many little touches - like hairdryers in every bathroom, and a great waffle-maker in the kitchen.
2 other great features - the huge, 15-20 person dining room table...we could all eat together, with room for cards at one end of the table! Also, the pool table, foozeball, board games, and TV/couches in the basement walkout - perfect for the occasional rainy afternoon.
The lake is great, and having 6 kayaks & a row boat meant that all 11 of us could go out together, either to the nice beach 100 yards away, or across the lake to a rope swing & slide...great memories. Lake City is only 10-12 minutes away (great pizza place delivered when we arrived late the first night), and Cadillac's only 20 minutes...we also drove an hour to Traverse City for a day...
I've already told Julia that we want a week next summer - because when folks start hearing about this house, it'll be booked every week, every summer! You won't be disappointed!
