Fantastic house for a winter getaway!

We have rented places on Mullett Lake for many years. This is by far the best house we have rented. The communication with the owner is prompt, accurate and engaging. This house is well thought out and inviting to stay. The house is very functional. In the winter it is in a quiet area and allows our group to be non-intrusive to other houses. We are there to icefish primarily and as a result drive machines in the ice at odd hours of the day so we don’t wake any neighbors. We would HIGHLY recommend staying at this beautiful place.

Amazing home and location

Although our stay was in the winter, it was still very beautiful. The home is beautiful and the detail to the decor is above and beyond. Truly a beautiful home. We truly enjoyed our stay over the new year holiday weekend! Definitely would consider staying here again with a large group or just the two of us again!

Great Place

Our extended family rented this place for a long weekend and had a great time. The house was very clean, plenty of different hang out spaces, lake views were phenomenal, as was the cook’s kitchen. There is a boat launch about 30 seconds down the road-very convenient. Nicole was great to work with. We enjoyed it enough to begin planning another stay next year!

Great Property!

This was a very enjoyable experience for a large group of friends. The check-in process and communication with the property host was great. Our group talked and travels all over the country and every question we had the host answered quickly and accurately. We would love to stay at this property again. The property was accurately described and presented in the pictures. We have stayed at many locations through the years and this was the perfect place for our group.

Really great time!!

This home was just beautiful and magical! Our family had such a wonderful week there, enjoying the home and the beautiful Mullett Lake. Everything was perfect. Thank you so much. (:Maybe provide some sort of pump/air compresser to blow up the water toys. That would be nice. Otherwise, best place we have rented for our family summer vacation ever!

Very comfortable stay!

Very comfortable, clean and spacious. Make sure you know when the "summer season" starts. We had rented a boat, but the temporary dock mentioned in the description was not yet in, so we had to cancel the boat and were charged a cancelation fee. The other thing is they have everything you need there, but could use more glasses. They have 5 wine glasses - so if you need more than that you should pack your own! Over all it was just great and we wouldn't hesitate to rent again.

Summer vacation stay

This property and house was excellent. The home is nicer then the pictures. The owners spared no expense. Everything worked well and property was well equipped. There was nothing we didn’t have. The owner was available if needed and responded promptly. The swimming area was large, but a little rocky. The house and view made up for it. Overall, I give this 5 stars! We would return.

Beautiful Rental

We stayed here for NYE, and the lake was beautiful. We all want to come back and stay in the summer, it will be gorgeous. There was ample room for our party of 13. Everyone had a bed and plenty of bathrooms. The kitchen is beautiful with a large dining table. We would definitely go back. Only downside for us was the proximity to skiing at Boyne Highland. It was at least a 45 minute drive. But this was minor concern and we knew this when we rented. There were hiccups with the cleaning, that is only reason I gave it a 4. (Again, nothing major) we would definitely rent again.

Amazing

We had a brief stay at this gorgeous home ( or as my son calls it, “the castle”) on Mullet Lake. The details of the interior decorating is phenomenal! The views are beautiful! Our family enjoyed a friendly game of pool too. Our only regret, we had to leave too soon! Thank you for sharing your castle with us. :-)

Excellent Family Gathering Place

This property is fabulous for a family gathering in mid-August. The house easily accommodated three adult couples and five kids (8-13 yrs). The property size, inside and out, accommodated all of our needs. Just about any amenity needed was on the property: fully stocked kitchen; comfortable and clean bedding, towels, and linens; deck and dock seating, water toys; whole house sound system and more. While we encountered several small maintenance items (ceiling fans, a shower light and faucet handle in need of repair) and a somewhat Byzantine system of light switches, they were not significant enough to merit anything less than a five star rating. While we didn’t bring any water craft, the public boat launch is about 1/8 mile down the road and appeared to offer easy access to the lake, without being overcrowded. The lake in front of the property was somewhat rocky, but great for swimming for all ages or hanging out in the dock. The floating diving dock was not too usable for humans however, as the water fowl regularly party there, leaving behind debris and a foul odor. Nicole was fantastic with communications and timely response to questions. I’d recommend the property for anyone planning a vacation at Mullet Lake.
