Peaceful Lake House - Perfect for the Whole Family!

Incredibly well equipped kitchen, great for cooking for a large group. Very clean, loved that there were plentiful towels and extra sheets, pillows and blankets. Very comfy beds and extra cots plenty of couches and sitting areas. Did have a few hiccups with Internet service and a few weather related ice storm problems but host was very kind and responsive. Would love to stay again.

This was the best stocked house we ever rented.It was fantastic There was 17 of us .we had more than enough space.,everyone enjoyed it. You only need your clothes and food, Toys and games are plenty.

Great place to stay for a summer family vacation. There were 10 of us - 6 adults and four children. Our children and teenage grandchildren used the kayaks and paddle boards every day. They discovered the sand bar around the corner from the cottage and took inner tubes with them and swam there. We used the sandy area for corn hole and catch, had tournaments in the downstairs game room and used the very large table area on the main floor porch for family games and puzzles. After a day on the water everyone enjoyed going in the hot tub just to relax. We are a family who likes to cook so we really enjoyed the size of the kitchen and all it had to offer as well as the grill and all the tables on the porch. We did have a problem getting the tv to work but were able to watch movies via the fire stick. All in all we had a wonderful vacation. The sad part is it’s already booked for next summer until mid August.

What can I say, this place was darn near perfect! The location makes this place feel so secluded. Even though there's another house close, the trees screen it so well. The neighbors were very quiet too. The lake itself was so peaceful. We were able to kayak all around the lake without worrying about boat traffic. Plenty of wildlife all around. We saw bald eagles, loons, cranes, herons, woodpeckers, turtles, frogs, deer, etc. so nice to be able to see so much wildlife! The house can sleep an army! We had 10, but there were beds for at least 6 more, and pullout couches for more still! There was plenty of seating. The kitchen was VERY well stocked with dishes and utensils. The host provided just about everything we needed, we definitely overpacked! Things provided off the top of my head: dish soap, laundry soap, dryer sheets, hand soap, tissues, paper towels, bug spray, fire wood, fire starters... Other things at the house that weren't expected: kids toys galore! Sand toys, board games, pool table, foosball table, air hockey table, shuffle board table, Cornhole/bags set, big Connect 4 set. Of course there are all the kayaks and paddle boards, paddles, and life jackets of every size. Truly we could have had an incredible week here if all we brought were clothes!!!I loved this house so much, I will definitely be looking to stay again! The only downfall is that the lake is a mud bottom, and the lake itself is down by a few feet of water. Out of anyone's control.

The house was amazing! The most well-equipped VRBO we've ever rented! Highly recommend!

Our family of 19 had a wonderful stay. The fully stocked kitchen and large dining area made feeding time very easy.Everyone enjoyed the multiple kayaks, and numerous amounts of children toys allowed for continuous fun for the young ones. The large amount of space provided plenty of room for all. The game room was a big hit for the kids, with pool and air hockey providing the most competitive fun.Plenty of deck space with tables and chairs made chilling outside very relaxing.It was a great week. Thank you.

Our family had a wonderful time. This place had enough room for all 22 of us! It was VERY well supplied with everything you could think of. There was plenty for the kids to do in the game room and was large enough that we weren't under each other's feet. The yard was big and there were lots of outside things for eveyone to do or you could relax on the large deck.

We had 18 family members with us,from a newborn to seniors! The home was perfect! We had so much fun together, from eating family meals with everything we needed for preparations, family games together in all the spacious areas, plenty of sleeping places for all of us, kyacking,sitting around the fire pit,the hot tub,the game room, the full array of kids toys and games. We didn’t lack for nothing. We took day trips to Manistee,Traverse City and Cadillac. Wish we could’ve stayed longer. We highly recommend this home!

Another great stay in Lake City. House was perfect again. Has everything you need. Owner is very easy to deal with. Thanks again for hosting our trip again.

We had a great experience!!! Cannot say enough good things about this house and the host. It’s close to caddliac and made it a great place to stay even in the winter. It was very accommodating do our multi family group. We were very comfortable. The game room is a huge plus. We will stay here again!

I cannot say ENOUGH about this property and host! While the photos and description were what made me pick this listing, they really don’t do it justice! I was amazed at how many gathering spaces there are to choose from. Not only do you have a gigantic dining table that comfortably fit all 14 of us, but there were so many other spaces that allowed us all to gather and hang out together. The living room couches, the patio had enough seating for at least 16, the campfire had enough chairs, and there were even enough kayaks for a huge group of us to go together. The house was also insanely well stocked. We didn’t have kids with us, but as a mom I noted how many baby/toddler supplies and toys there were. Had I come with my family, I wouldn’t have had to worry about all the accoutrements that go along with having young kids, because Julia has clearly thought of it all! You could tell this wasn’t just an investment property and that many family vacations had taken place here. There were so many amenities that other places I’ve stayed didn’t even think about. All in all, we will absolutely be returning! It was an incredibly beautiful and rejuvenating stay! 12/10 stars.

We truly enjoyed our stay. Our family of 15 had lots of fun kayaking, swimming, playing corn hole, shuffleboard, pool, fooze ball, and sitting around the fire pit making s’mores. Lots of room for everyone!!

We brought a small family reunion of Grandma and Grandpa plus five young families. This property had everything we wanted or needed, and we felt silly packing some of the things that were just here for us. Great location, perfect for young kids, very peaceful during our late August stay. Can't think of enough great things to say, highly recommend.

Exceptional amenities. Plenty of activities inside and outside. Spacious. Only drawback was the water out front but the community beach was great. Would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely stay. Everything was clean, as described, and the kitchen included everything we could ever need. Kids, teens, and adults enjed the game room, pickleball, kayaking, and the short walk to the swim area.

We had a great time and had plenty of space for everyone. The kids loved all the games and space in the basement too. The lake was a nice, quiet lake too.

Great property for large family gathering. Clean and well stocked kitchen!

Clearness, very well equipped house, cordiality, and lots of fun!!!!
