Great property. Overall a great stay with our family (4 parents, 4 kids ages 3-7, 2 grand parents) with plenty of space (both bedrooms, common areas indoors and outdoor space for our sized group. Access to small community beach was perfect for the kids. There were toys, a water mat, and plenty of beach chairs for non-resident use which made our daily beach trips down the hill even more convenient. House was reasonably equipped/had the necessities. Communication with the owner was excellent and made the rental process seamless. We were able to rent a pontoon and had dock access that allowed for a very nice couple days of boating, tubing and wake boarding through the public boat launch at the north end of the lake (10-15 min boat ride back down to the accessible dock). Walk down the hill to the beach is not overly cumbersome and is not far from the home but would be potentially strenuous for anyone with limitations/elderly. Only 10-12 mins from an Oleson’s for full grocery, a well stocked local store only a couple miles away and 15 mins from Traverse. All this allowed for us to spend some days disconnected and others with plenty of options of things to do for the family. The fire pit and grill area was used almost daily/nightly and was perfect for our sized group. Would recommend for similar groups and would consider again in the future. Thanks for the stay!

Fun stay here with 6 adults and 4 kids for a family vacation! We loved the beach - the lake was much warmer than nearby Lake Michigan, and we really enjoyed the canoe and kayaks! The swim platform was a huge hit with the kids! Todd, the property manager, was very responsive and helpful when we had an issue with the oven our first night. The listing is a little deceptive; the beach is a walk down a steep hill, and some of our group with mobility challenges had trouble with the path. The house was lovely inside - clearly recently updated, with a great kitchen and new appliances. However, the kitchen was missing a few simple but important tools: pot holders, measuring cups/spoons, can opener, etc., which made cooking difficult. The living area was very large, but didn't have enough seating for a house that sleeps 12. The two couches (which were not very comfortable) only fit 6; more couches/chairs would be great. The bedrooms were comfortable, but the carpets had an odd musty smell, and they were also missing some simple items: e.g., trash cans & mirrors. There were 4 exterior doors, none of which had mats... with a beach, wood-chip path from the beach, and sand/gravel driveway, you can imagine how much yuck was tracked in by 10 pairs of feet, even though we were taking our shoes off at the door. Entry mats seem like a simple easy addition! On the whole, the house was beautiful, and a few simple additions would make it really exceptional.

This home was more beautiful inside than the pictures suggest. It was well appointed, and had a ton of space for our large crew of six kids and two adults both to gather and to take a break from things. Both the playground and the beach were big hits with all of our kids and both were very close to the property. The host was very responsive to all of our questions and was very accommodating. We would absolutely stay here again!

We had a great stay. The house was nicely renovated with big bedrooms & comfortable beds. The description /pictures are accurate. An outdoor deck with patio furniture allows enjoyment of the lake view. The fire pit with comfortable chairs was nicely done for evening enjoyment. Will recommend this property to family & friends for up-north vacation.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful Michigan lake home! It was a central location for all of our Traverse City area adventures. The kitchen was perfect and big enough to make dinner for our group of 10! We were a little nervous about there only being 2 bathrooms because we were a group of mostly adults, but we had no issues. Beds were comfortable! Laundry room was fantastic and the outdoor eating space was also perfect! Our families have always gone to Florida or the Carolinas for vacation, but the weather and beauty of Michigan in July is unmatched! Thank you for opening your beautiful home to us!
