Exactly what we wanted and we plan to visit again!

This was perfect for 8 middle-aged women who don’t want to share a bed and love the lake and outdoors and cooking and keeping cozy in the fall!

Beautiful Lake Front-but property needs TLC!

The location and view of the lake were fantastic. However, the interior and exterior need updating. The exterior grounds have been neglected and need some attention. The fire pit area has several stumps that pose a trip hazard. The interior needs some serious updating. Additional, the cleanliness of the home could have been significantly better.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND

I arrived at this facility with 3 of my 6 guests. Condition of the home was absolutely horrible. We could not stay in this home as patio door frames and window cranks were broken. Unbelievable flies (alive and deceased) The list is long with supporting pictures

Perfect Stay!

We rented the house for a bachelorette weekend for my daughter and her bridal party. And it was absolutely perfect. The house was tidy and offered everything we needed and more. We had plenty of space for our group and enjoyed playing on the beach every day. We especially loved spot for the campfire, it was incredibly scenic and a nice spot to chill even when we weren't having a fire. We had a fantastic weekend and everything went great. Many thanks to the owner of this property, we couldn't have asked for a better stay!

great trip

Josh Orton, the owner, was very helpful. His beautiful home was well maintained, had great views, was large enough to provide a lot space and privacy for a good-sized group (we had grandparents, parents and grandkids for a total of 14 people). The location was also excellent since it was located close to a lot of activities and yet was on a quiet road. A quality rental with a helpful owner.

Family Vacay!

Extended family getaway in over a year, celebrated a mom/gma’s special birthday and time spent with a special dad/papa. The time spent relaxing, laughing, eating, watching football, playing games, rock finding and town shopping was just what we needed. We all admired the lake view and enjoyed the cozy fireplace. Super clean, fully stocked, plenty of room for all of us, great communication, and looking forward to our next visit! Thank you so much!

Great time

We had a really great time. The view is incredible. Plenty of beds and everything was nice and clean. We were really excited to find out the stairs down to the lake we’re finished. Spent most our time hanging out on the back deck and at the private beach. This place really is the perfect lake house. Thanks Rich and Stacy!

Fantastic Lake Michigan house

This property is perfect for a large group. Plenty of space to spread out, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen. The deck with Lake Michigan view can’t be beat. This was our group’s second summer at this property and we will return in 2024. We really appreciated the new grille this year. Property manager responded promptly to any questions. This location and home are awesome!

Great waterfront spot

We had a blast, ample amounts of space for sleeping accommodations , new stairs down to the water, only downside was AC was only in one location on main floor but other than that it was a blast. No cell phone service at the house but the WiFi was great! Thanks for hosting!!

Comfortable stay

Our multi family group enjoyed our stay a lot! A few favorites: -location -porch -beach -bonfire pit -space and bedrooms -easy parking -nice big kitchen and plenty of room to eat as a group As a decorator, I would Love to get my hands on this property and enhance it with some updates but it met our needs. We did need to buy ant killer to put in the upstairs bathroom. But that’s life up north!
