About this house rental
I have been coming to Sister Lakes for many years.The wonderful experiences have always provided a sense of calm and tranquility. When I leave, I am left with the feeling that I can't wait to get back. I have friends that have vacationed with us for a weekend and stayed for weeks. We have countless memories of family and friends learning to swim, drive a boat, pontoon, or Jet Ski, or playing catch in the water diving for a ball off the raft. Cook on an outside gas grill, Weber charcoal kettle or open fire pit. Fish, float around tied to the raft with a cooler, sit in chairs while in the water and get too much sun! There is not a better place to get together, it just doesn't get any better than this!
The fall brings out natures unbelievable colors. The Lake quiets down compared to the summer and the water becomes a mirror of the colors on the trees. You can smell burning leaves as homeowners prepare for the next season of winter which usually turns into Winter Wonderland. Stoke a fire in the fireplace or fire pit, clear some snow and skate on the Lake. Shoot a puck on the virgin ice and if you miss it, skate across the Lake to retrieve. Ice fish, sled, or snowmobile. There are hundreds of miles of trails to enjoy. Then before you know it spring jumps out in vibrant green. The vegetables start growing and the roadside markets sell the freshest available anywhere.
Keywords: Our 'Mile 0' Beach house is the perfect place to 'hang loose' for a relaxing week or short but sweet weekend in beautiful Sister Lakes on Big Crooked. Located right at the point on the North side with 89' of frontage. The water is crystal clear with a sandy bottom. Depth at the raft is +/- 6'

We loved this property. The house is very clean and well-stocked with basics. The outside is also well-maintained and has plenty of outdoor furniture to relax on the patio, by the fire or on the pier. The kids were able to swim the entire stay with the lake being easily accessible, clean and shallow. The lake was busy during the day and calm and peaceful in the mornings and evenings. We were very happy with our stay and highly recommend!

Two days is not enough to enjoy all that this area and property offers! House is better than described. Immaculately maintained home, great location with sandy bottom lake where you can actually see your feet!
4.9
We’ve stayed at this house on 4 different occasions and it never disappoints. This property is just wonderful! The house is exactly as described and is in a fantastic location. My children (ages 8 and 10) just love coming back here. The owner keeps the house well stocked of everything from toiletries to kitchen supplies to a cabinet full of board games! The location on Big Crooked Lake is great because within minutes, you can be at the Strand, Lakeview Inn, Sister Lakes Brewing Company, or the Driftwood! We can’t wait to stay there again in the future!

We had a wonderful experience staying at Mile 0!! We were in the area for a wedding so didn’t have lots of time to enjoy the beautiful lake but appreciated the convenient location, nice neighbors, and comfortable home! Beds were super comfortable, gorgeous views, great communication , spotless condition!!

The home is lovely overlooking a lake with a private pier and surrounded by a garden. It brought back so many memories good memories of family vacations in Michigan.
4.9
Mile 0 is super clean, the lake is crystal clear, and every aspect of the place is perfect for the whole family. Our 2 and 5 year old loved the shallow area and spent hours chasing minnows with their nets. Everyone loved jumping off the dock and swimming out the the swim platform. The owner even helped me out when it came to renting a pontoon. He let us dock the rented boat at the property as well. We loved every single minute of our stay and would love to come back again.
4.9
The house is lovely, the location fantastic, and the property manager clear and helpful. They do ask that you try to ignore that neighbors dog, which we did. However, since his owner lets him run freely off leash there was not much to be done. He was super interested in all the children and hung out for stretches of time before his owner finally called him back. He also bit a hole in one of the kids floaties and took the soccer ball, which we later retrieved. It wasn’t a huge deal for us since we all are comfortable with dogs but something to be considered if you’re not. That aside we are excited to plan next years visit, the kids especially love it here and we love all the memories they are making.

Third time staying here, my kids want to do it every year we possibly can. Thank you Ken!

We were there for my daughters wedding weekend. With everything happening around the wedding this was an easy, clean, convenient, relaxing place to stay. The owner made the process very easy and the place was very nice!! Pictures make it seem a bit bigger but no complaints! We would definitely go back!

My two children and I had the pleasure of staying at this property for 5 days. It is easily one of the most well-stocked properties I've ever rented! Any time we needed something, it was there (we cooked inside and grilled outside). The property was immaculately maintained. The interior of the home was warm and inviting, beds were incredibly comfortable, and there was plenty of space. All appliances were in working order, and we did do several loads of laundry. One of my children has cerebral palsy, and I loved being able to walk down the steps on the dock, and enjoy the crystal clear water safely. Ken was a phenomenal host, answering questions quickly, and addressing an unfortunate incident when my child got sick, with kindness and efficiency. I had family stop out to visit and grill one evening, and they were also impressed with the property and serenity it provided. The neighbors we did see were friendly, and I didn't notice any excessive noise from anyone on the lake. We really enjoyed watching the boaters, in particular a family pulling their kids that waved each time they passed our dock. I wouldn't hesitate to revisit this property, and hope I have an opportunity to do so in the future. Thanks for everything, Ken!

This was such a perfect spot for a quick getaway before school starts. It’s very nostalgic of a cottage I visited at my grandparents growing up but the property has all the amenities you would want in a lake house. We enjoyed the paddle boards, floating raft, solo stove fire pit and enjoying the three seating areas lining the property. The landscaping is really nice. We really enjoyed our evening at The Strand and Sister Lakes Brewing Company which are 2-3 minutes away.
5 Stars!

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. There were so many extras that make this rental stand out from others we’ve gone to. The house was exceptionally clean, the beds were wonderful, it was nicely decorated too. Everything we could have needed was there in the house which allowed me (mom) to relax and enjoy vacation too. The lake was clear and had a nice sandy bottom which the kids appreciated. The neighborhood was great, a few local places to choose from for ice cream and food. It was a short drive to the bigger grocery stores and the beach and downtown area in StJoseph. Communication was superb as well, we really appreciated that. The house was exactly as listed, all the amenities they describe are accurate plus some extras. We had a wonderful time and would love to stay again.

I’ve been renting from Vrbo for the last 7 years or so. This is the most stocked and efficient place I’ve ever stayed. The restaurant Strand just a few blocks from the house was fun on Saturday night. So close to various towns to go and visit .Beds were comfortable it was just a wonderful experience.

This VRBO was one of our favorite. It is exactly as described with lots of great extras. You can tell the owners really care about their property. It is on a great spot on the lake and walking distance to many places. We enjoyed the paddle boards, fishing off the pier and sitting under the shade trees. Nights meant a fire and smores by the lake. Don't hesitate to rent this place!

The entire home and property were beautiful and made for a wonderful place to have a relaxing and yet fun filled week at the lake. Ken was very responsive to all questions and only enhanced the renting experience.

Great Family Getaway
We had a great relaxing week. We traveled with our two young kids as a last minute getaway before they started school. The house was perfect for our family of 4. House was very well furnished and had plenty of supplies such as paper towels, toilet paper, towels, kitchen supplies etc. You truly just need to bring clothes, food and beach towels. The kids loved jumping off the floating dock and checking out the tadpoles by the dock stairs. We loved sitting on the lounge chair on the dock watching the boats go by and the view of the lake from the bedrooms. Lake was very quiet during the week. The covered patio was amazing - we ate every meal outside and it was great to be able to still spend time outside even on the few occasions it rained or was very windy. My kids were asking on the second day when we could come back! The house was very clean and comfortable. Thanks Ken!

wonderful time at Sister Lakes
Property was better than described. Ken's attention to detail is phenomenal. He knew what we would need before we even knew we needed it. Ken also helped us out with returning several items that were left at the property.. Would love to rent again.

Sister Lakes Stay
The property was very clean, with updated furnishings, all the kitchen tools and amenities you could want, comfortable sheets and towels, and a nice assortment of outdoor equipment. The location was beautiful and had several outdoor seating areas, whether you want sun or shade. The only caution would be for families with small children -- because the house is located in the lake's narrows, the wake from boats can get quite choppy during high traffic times. This was not a concern as our kids were older, but could be an issue for small children. The owner was responsive and easy to work with. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to this lovely home and would not hesitate to return.
4.9
Awesome place
The house was so nice! I loved that it had a king bed since I knew my littles would end up sleeping with me. Everything was really clean and well stocked. The property was gorgeous and the lake was the perfect depth for my kids to swim in (age 6 and 4). Can’t wait to go back!
