There is nothing negative to say about this property. We have a large family and it was perfect for us! The house was clean and spacious. The kitchen was well equipped for a large family cooking experience. The host was very responsive to questions. The property was beautiful, with a large yard for the kids to run around in and a nice fire pit for gathering around after a busy day of activities nearby. Very private and ample parking for several vehicles. I highly recommend this property for your group!

Our group consisted of six adults and five small kids. The house easily accommodated us and is very well equipped throughout. Everyone loved it. The wooded surroundings are quite nice, the large grassy backyard offered plenty of room for games, and a couple of great Lake Michigan beached are only a short drive away. If you are bringing toddlers, be sure to bring a baby gate for the back hall stairway. We all highly recommended this VRBO property!

My daughters and their spouses and children plus Gramma all enjoyed our stay. The house is spacious so smaller groups could be in separate locations or we could all be together for dinner and games. The backyard is beautiful with a great fire pit and is surrounded with tall trees and bushes. The location was within easy driving to all our activities. Would certainly recommend to my friends.

What a delightful home in a dramatically beautiful area! We have been familiar with the area for many years, and the property is close enough to easily get to all our favorite locations, like the dune climb, Pierce-Stocking Scenic Drive, Glen Haven, the Crystal River, etc. Our 3 children and their spouses, along with our 12 grandchildren (2 of whom are still crib sleepers), joined us for a week at Timber Lodge. The home is spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean! We appreciated the separate gathering areas so kids could play while adults chatted. The smaller living room with a door contained the noise of early-waking little ones as they played. The picnic tables on the deck provided space for family meals. The kids loved playing kickball in the large back yard, and the bunk room was a great place for a lot of them to sleep. The hosts had thought of most anything we could possibly need during our stay. The supply of bathroom towels was impressive! The kitchen is completely supplied with quality pans, any needed cooking utensils and appliances, including slow cookers, rice cooker, air fryer, etc. There are indoor and outdoor games available, and the Legos were a hit for some of our grandkids. The host was quickly responsive to any communication, and we are totally grateful for finding this house. We would definitely recommend this property to others who are planning a family gathering.

Our family stayed at the Timber Lodge for a long weekend and had a great time. The house was EXTREMELY clean and had everything we needed and more. Every detail has been thought out by the owners of this very nice home. It is very comfortable and has multiple areas where you can enjoy your stay. The flat top grill was great to feed the family. There was a lot of family games for indoor and outdoor to enjoy. I would highly recommend.

My family had a great stay at Timber Lodge! This beautiful property is in a fantastic location, and we were so happy to have found this rental. Our favorite parts were the decor, the welcoming vibe, and the outdoor games for the kiddos... so thoughtful! Unfortunately, the weather did not allow us to enjoy the spacious outdoor decks and excellent lawn fully, but we had plenty of room inside for the kids to play and the parents to relax. My one "opportunity for improvement" suggestion would be a different coffee maker. The provided ten-cup BUN was a bit small for my family, and it brews very slowly, but we managed. I highly recommend this property and look forward to booking another stay soon!
