This house was fantastic. It slept all 16 of us comfortably and we didn’t have to fight for beds. The game room was a game changer and allowed us to have fun without having to go outside in the winter. The house was so well stocked with absolutely everything you could possibly need. The house is close to Boyne mountain and Mancelona so we had plenty to do up north. Scott, our host, was amazing as well as he was very responsive to our needs and he was very polite when communicating with us. Excellent rental!!!
This was a cozy spot. Spacious for everyone. The game room was a hit. Very nicely stocked kitchen. Those beds were heavenly. The pool clubhouse was a sweet little extra for the kids.
I really wasn't sure what to expect but was very happy with everything! It was perfect for our family and everyone had a great time, from the youngest @ 1yo to my husband and I @ 58yo. There was something for everyone! The game room was used all day long and lots of basketball was played in the driveway! The firepit was the perfect way to end the day. The whole family sat around the bonfire, ate s'mores, talked, and laughed a lot. We will always remember this wonderful weekend! Scott was a great host!! He sent messages checking on everything and when there was a potential issue he called immediately. Thank goodness it was all okay but I knew by Scott's actions that we had nothing to worry about. I highly recommend staying at this house and with Scott as the host you can't go wrong!!
We stayed here for team bonding and a volleyball tri at Kalkaska. The house was perfect with the game room for the girls to enjoy. The double bunk beds allowed them all to sleep in the loft area to bond. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for our group. If we ever have a game this far north again we will certainly come back!!
Family trip with all kids and grandkids - 14 total. Very clean home with plenty of room for all of us. The game room was a big hit for the kids. We took advantage of Lake Harold for the two days. Kids loved the raft there. Home was stocked with everything we needed. Would highly recommend.
We had a great stay. Kids loved the game room. The host checked in a couple times to make sure everything was in order. The house was clean and well equipped. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
Plenty of room for the 3 families, and the kids loved competing with their parents and Grandma in the huge game room at The Eagle’s Nest. The kids even caught fish from the shore on Harold Lake. But the big splash was the clubhouse waterside, pool and whirlpool.
Plenty of room, Lots of on site activities. Would definitely book again!
Highly recommend! We had a party of eleven women. Plenty of space, beds, and gathering space for everyone. Host went above and beyond for us. We would/ will stay here again.
We had a great family gathering. Kids had fun doing winter sports and love the swimming pool. Kitchen great for making large family dining.
This was a perfect place for a family break. The game room was a game changer for the 5 kids and the pool was a perfect place to hang out with everyone. Not one complaint from our whole family. Can’t wait to do it again!!
Nice place. The game room was a hit!
We stayed here for our family Christmas over the new year and it was spectacular. The house was great and had everything we needed for a great long weekend!! 100% would stay again... We probably are going to try ? .... P. S. The pool club house is absolutely with it!!! Thanks again
There was a huge storm before our stay which was out of property owners control. Was in good communication with me regarding this. Game room heater did not work so be prepared if it is cold that you will be freezing. No cable, and Wi-Fi is limited so be prepared for that. We had to stream the TV and there is not much service in the location so we were not able to use our phones as everything was trying to hook up to the Wi-Fi. Regarding the clubhouse unfortunately we were not able to use this as well as the owner did not have us authorized. The kids were pretty bummed about that as well. This was not stated on welcome letter, as I checked. Just a few things we were a little upset by. But the house is very nice but I would recommend not staying during the winter as it is pretty tucked back in and unless you have four wheel drive it is very hard to reach the location.
We had 15 family members to celebrate our christmas! It was big enough for all. All the amenities we great! Even offered his personal pass to be able to swim indoor pool in December! Nice cabin!
The house was great. Love that it had so many bathrooms. I traveled with a toddler, small kids and teens. This house allowed them to have all the alone time they wanted and family bonding time. The game room was the best. Only negative was my GPS taking us through a short cut which ended up getting 1 car stuck in snow. Luckily some friendly neighbors came and pulled us right out. We were able to use the clubhouse pool for 2days of our stay. The staff there were so nice and helpful. We had the whole pool area to ourselves. This house has everything you need you just have to come with food. I will say come prepared to get dirty. Lol all in all very amazing house great bonding time with my family. Thanks so much for having us.
