    We had a wonderful stay! The place was very clean and had plenty of amenities to keep everyone entertained. The game room was especially fun and perfect for all ages. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to make breakfast, lunches, and dinners. Communication with the owner was excellent from start to finish, which made our stay even better. We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back!

    The house has so much space. The set up was perfect. Very well maintained, gorgeous outdoor space and walkable to downtown. Stayed here for our annual girls trip. It was the perfect house. Very clean, lots of space and for those who wanted to go to bed early still space from the entertainment area. 10 out of 10.

    The river house was so much fun! Perfect size for our large family of 13. We rented a pontoon boat for a two days and had a blast on Torch Lake! We would love to come here again some day

    Great place! Lots of room and activities within the house for larger groups. Walking distance to downtown Bellaire and a short drive to Shanty Creek Resort was perfect. Very responsive hosts!

    Grandparents (us) treated our kids and grandkids to week in Northern Michigan. We loved the house and the charming village of Bellaire. We even got a hearty welcome from the gentleman across the street. The house was comfortable for our group of 11 and had everything we needed. The grandkids loved the kayaks and all of us enjoyed strolling to downtown Bellaire. This is a great rental with everything accurately described and is highly recommended.

    Our extended family stayed here for a week and had a great time! Close to Shuss/Shanty Creek and Boyne and close to town. When we were in the house there was a lot to keep the kids busy. Great experience, highly recommended!

    Had a group of 8-10 guys for a bachelor party. We spent most of our days out on the water. However, this house was more than enough space for all of us. Plenty of places to sleep, great kitchen, nice deck. Only a 10 min walk to downtown Bellaire. Perfect location.
