Reviewer Comments: First time since 2017 that all 3 of our children, their spouses and the grandbabies were all under one roof. The cabin/home was clean and gave us plenty of space, the barn was a great addition for our daughter with 3 children. The lake was beautiful - the area on the left side of the pier was sandy and shallow (about 3ft) so the kids could jump off the pier, wade, look for sea shells etc.... weather cooperated. The cabin felt warm and comfortable. Neighbors were very nice and gave us some background info on the original owners. Being approximately 2 1/2 miles to the Michigan border we were able to visit the Casino in Watersmeet - with which we were impressed. When our youngest grandson asked what you call where we were staying - We simply replied God's Country - because it is a bit of a rural area- not a lot of traffic or noise. The level frontage to the lake was great for the kids to play catch, football, etc.... also good for fires and smores. Our vacation turned out awesome .There were a few glitches with the internet/WIFI but personnel at Hiller were able to quickly help us correct the situation. The Sand Pub off of State Hwy 17 and Grosser Lane has excellent food - service was quick and courteous. Eagle River is about 16 miles away with a Pick-n-Save (Kroger) grocery store. We have rented from Hillers before and we have never been disappointed. We will definitely be a return.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall it was good, the place was nice and clean and what I expected. The only complaint I had was the water heater wasn't working in the main cabin so I called to inform Hiller's about it and it was never fixed. Didn't end up being a huge deal because the water heater worked in the other building so I didn't bother calling again.
Very nice place to stay for a quiet getaway. Clear water and nice sandy swim area by the dock. The dock was a bit shaky and had a few questionable boards

But the rest of everything was very enjoyable.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The lake is beautiful, the deck is beautiful and the cabin is rustic and charming. However, this is our first time renting in over 23 years renting from a rental company vs VRBO or directly from the owners and I can say we will not do that again. The company was slow to answer any questions regarding the cabin prior to the trip (in fact still waiting an answer from an email for a few questions I had prior to the trip...and I am home now) from the company. The cabin had a leak, we contacted the company, little to no concern or care was expressed as this issue. Also, please note this cabin does not have AC. I only hope the owners of the cabin know how poor the representation of their property is. We even spoke with a neighbor and they confirmed the poor management. Our group made the best of the trip but would not recommend working with these property managers.
Great place to stay parking leaves a bit to desire.
The cabin was perfect for our group. I loved the atmosphere and the location! I would definitely stay here again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was clean and very spacious for our family of 11. The only 2 problems were that the fuse blew for the water pump and we had to go into the basement to reset the first day we were there. A few days later we plugged the vacuum into an outlet in the Livingroom entrance way and it blew the fuse, which had the water pump on as well, and had to be reset again. The house had mice, with visible nesting and droppings in the stairway closet. We actually saw the mice on several different occasions.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: overall we had very good time, we were isolated so we had no worries about the pandemic. There were some problems, the screen door going into upstairs barn had nails sticking out, luckily none of the children had to go in there, I myself scratched my arm. The front door off the deck and the screen were very hard to open and was tearing up the floor. We were told there would be a gas grill but we found a charcoal weber grill, could have brought charcoal from home. we were told that towels were included had to go and buy enough for ten people. There was a musty smell in the living room and some of us had a reaction to it. Also, (this is petty) but there is NO sandy shore line, only grass, more rocks than anticipated. With the price of rental why were we instructed to wash and sanitize all the utensils in the kitchen?
