Right away there were complaints about noise. Had the radio on not loud and was playing corn hole and got a complaint about being loud. Boys were skipping ricks from the ground in the lake and weren’t aloud to do that either. Felt like we were being watched the whole time by the ring camaras. When I booked the reservation it clearly states must be 18 to reserve and the day we were on the way there they needed someone to be 21 to stay. There was an ant problem. If the the age to book was 21 then that should have been brought up the day I booked the reservation not weeks later on the day of our arrival
Great property, plenty of room to spread out and all the tv’s were a hit with my kids. Would definitely stay again.
A nice place on a lovely inland lake.
This property was as described and clean! We all had a great time and spent lots of time on the kayaks included! If you have a large party, bring coolers because the refrigerator is a standard half fridge/half freezer. The owner had prompt response to questions and was pleasant.
We were getting married nearby and needed a place for the wedding party to stay. It worked out amazing. A beautiful clean home! Wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you!
Lovely views of a quiet lake from the deck and dining room make this location a nice spot for friends and family to have a getaway. Easily sleeps 10. We didn't use the sauna and hot tub, but would have liked to if we had time.
Was Bueatiful great view. Had really good time… check in should be earlier
The inside was very clean. The beds were comfortable. The dining room with the view of the lake was very nice except for the bugs and cobwebs on the outside of the windows. The deck was also great except for the spiders and bugs on the side of the house. It was all as described but I would suggest that the cleaning people also take a look at the deck area. Overall, we had a great stay!
We had a great stay! Everything was clean and spacious. Quiet area which we really enjoyed. Only complaint was that the chlorine smelled really strong, throughout the house. I would check to be sure the amount you were using is correct. Also, a paddle boat would be an awesome addition!
We were up for a funeral and we needed a place for the whole family to be able to stay together, turned out to be a great location, great neighborhood area highly recommend.
Kids had fun in hot tub while I relaxed and enjoyed the games on the big screens… can’t wait to go back and enjoy the lake in the summer!
Had a nice trip. Good location and house had lots of room.
This property was amazing! Very clean and spacious. Plenty of room and sleeping accomdations for nine people to be comfortable. Kitchen had evertything we needed! The management company was extremely prompt and attentive to our questions during our stay. The sauna and hot tub were an extra bonus for the skiers when they got off the slopes. Albeit we stayed over the Christmas holiday to ski in the area, I would highly recommend this property for a winter or summer stay. Beautiful home and lake setting.
Nice place, had everything we needed. Indoor hot tub and sauna were a huge plus after a cold day in Cadillac
It was so nice have a hot tub and sauna to come back to and warm up from a day in the woods hunting in cold temps and snow storm. We did play a few games during our stay and would have been nice to have more games and some puzzles to work on during our stay. We might have to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake. We highly recommend this place.
Our first day was very nice; the property is spacious and beautifully located. The second day there were some very serious plumbing issues - VRBO eventually made it right and refunded the second day of our stay.
Clean, modern place with many amenities. Had everything you want or need.
We drove hours to get there only to find that the property cancelled on us because of a back up in the sewage system. They had contacted me 4 hours before check in and I was so busy preparing for the stay that I missed the 1 phone call and 1 email that was given to me. We were stranded hours away from home and the only thing vrbo and this property offered me was a refund. I understand things can be out of their control but this was handled inadequately.
My husband, 10 year old daughter and my dog enjoyed our five nights at this property. We really liked being right on the lake, my dog especially. He had a lot of fun swimming around in the shallow water. We enjoyed the fire pit by the water and the beautiful sunsets. We used the sauna and hot tub and cooked a few meals in the kitchen. It had everything you needed along with a nice grill. The beds were comfortable and everything was decorated nicely. We noticed some areas that could use a deeper cleaning: like the vents, the ceiling lights and along the walls and baseboards, but overall it was clean. I did let the property manager know so these should be addressed. Getting these things taken care of will make this rental even better. I'd definitely go back and am sad to go home and back to work next week.
