Family Trip
The house was amazing!! Absolutely stunning and had everything you could imagine. EVERYTHING is labeled the linen closet, the kitchen draws- an OCD dream come true. They have every pot/pan/spices you could imagine. And don't worry, they have plenty of blenders for margaritas! Although we had some unfortunate events happen (none of which were the owner's fault) It was a great time. We didn't go out to much on the boat we rented, but the fishing was great off the dock. in a few hours we caught Smallmouth bass, Bluegill, and some pretty decent sized White bass. Great time.

Amazing Time - We Had A Blast!!!
Our family group ranges from age 4 to 72. We all had a fantastic time at this amazing house. It is fully stocked with anything you need. Everything is clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kids LOVED the lily pad that's available for use. The outdoor spaces are well arranged and cared for; they even provided firewood for our campfire. You will NOT be disappointed with this lovely rental.

Winter Getaway
We had a family weekend planned for a bit of outdoor winter fun. Mother nature decided to give us a blizzard and below zero temps. Our outdoor winter fun quickly turned into indoor winter fun. And we had a great time! We had nine adults and one child. We were all very comfortable in our own rooms. The kitchen was large and well equipped. The Living room, dining area was spacious. Had toys for our 2 year old and The fireplace was beautiful. As a family this area Of the house was more than comfortable for the nine of us. The large sectional held us all, as did the dining room table. The beds were comfortable. The linens were comfortable. The pillows were comfortable. While we were there, the management company I believe, checked on his frequently to make sure that everything was good since there was a winter storm going on. We were able to sit in the Jacuzzi and enjoy the warmth while looking at the beautiful snow covered lake. Gorgeous views! It was the perfect house for an indoor weekend and I know it will be the perfect house for an outdoor weekend. We will be booking this again for our family getaway in 2025. !

Nice view but overall needs maintenance
Enjoyed our stay despite the issues. We appreciated the veterans discount and accommodations for our change of dates. For those reasons, and the lovely view, I gave this property a better rating than I would have. Checkin email was sent late and we had the check in time confused. We arrived early, greeted by the property manager who lives in the apartment next door. She said it was ok and we could stay (did not mention additional charge that we were asked to pay after check out) Stained carpet throughout stairs, basement. Old ping pong table was broken when we arrived (we were accused of breaking) living room chair. My sister sat in, collapsed, mold in master shower, mold in basement shower. No parking space in garage, as described, as they had a bunch of furniture stacked.(Not the best neighborhood) Garage entrance door dirty. There are cameras outside of the property. The property is also surveyed by the property manager who lives next-door. At one point she was taking a video of our teen boys with her cell phone who were enjoying the hot tub. No privacy. Highly recommend purchasing insurance here. (we always do JIC)You will be held accountable for anything broken. During checkout, we met the cleaning ladies in the alley, who told us to take our time (they were still cleaning next door. ) as we had elderly parents with us. But were asked to pay fees the next day because of it. Owners messages were extremely rude. Too bad, this home could have been amazing.

Lots of DIY; Needs updating and up keep> Not a luxury property
This property is not a luxury property and is priced higher than the finish-out warrants. We did enjoy the view, but there is a 6+ apartment unit not shown in the listing that you look at to your left which is not nice at all. Property was not clean> I sent pics to the owner…. Safety: the driveway/entrance has big cracks and several inches of height difference towards the walkway to the side door. I personally tripped on this…good thing I am agile! Examples of issues; flooring was not installed correctly, there are gaps and loose boards in the main family from and many in the bottom floor. Carpets definitely are in need of replacement, they just look very old. Kitchen is a nice space, but under equipped with basics for cooking, and most pots and pans we would never they are rusty/or flaking off the coating. Many need to be replaced. Also, the cane it’s installation and stove hood installation look bad and we’re not professionally installed…crooked, and gaps…. Most of the fixtures in the home are mis-matched, and many are in need of replacement… again if you want to charge luxury prices of $600+/night. internet was very good, but the TVs just need to all use the same system> the previous renters had the remotes mixed up and I waisted time debugging with one of the owners. We had 8 people, and there really were not enough towels. We ran out of towels requiring more laundry cycles than desired. we have rented many properties> the property needs tons

Location, Space, Comfort!!
This spacious 5 bedroom home was perfect for our family! 8 adults, 3 kids and loads of good food and fun. We spent the majority of our time on the brand new “Lilly Pad” floating and swimming in the lake. It’s a bit murky, but the water is warm with a nice dock. The clean outdoor shower made it simple to shower off after a dip! Location is very near grocery, Walmart and Meijer…and the kids rented water bikes at the nearby marina. The lakeside fire pit was so relaxing and we made hot dogs and S’mores in the evenings. Owners were in contact with us over some minor home repair issues and we appreciated the communication! Thanks again!!

The property was beautiful and the hosts were amazing. While it was during the time when the whether felt like 30 below 0 and the basement was really cold, the hosts went out of their way to make sure we could heat it propertly. They even agreed to let us purchase space heaters and quicky reimbursed us. We thouroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay there again or any other property owned by the host.

We had a great experience on our vacation. The home was very clean, cozy, and great for big families. It was too cold for us to enjoy the deck or the lake because of the snow, but the living spaces in the home were extremely comfortable and the owners even provided abundant firewood for us to enjoy the fireplace. We would definitely come back again!

great home and fantastic hosts
I had a large group of family in from all over the country for my daughters wedding and this house was the perfect place for us to gather the night before the wedding as well as after the wedding. There was plenty of room for everybody and the home / location were perfect. Also, when I requested a late checkout Sunday given a wide variety of departure times for family, the host generously gave us a 4:00PM late check out, which was above and beyond what we could have asked for and made the day after so much more relaxed and enjoyable. We all had such a great time we decided to come back next summer and stay just for fun.

Family lake vacation
Our family of 12 enjoyed our stay at the lake house! The interior of the house was very spacious and well appointed; beds were very comfortable. Outdoor space was also very nice: exterior deck with table/seating and a convenient grill deck just off the kitchen, nice outdoor firepit, and a nice yard (although the pictures in the listing showed a swingset that is no longer there...granted this opened up the yard, which was nice for our group). A lakeside shelter was nice for seating and shade during the day, and the dock and swim platform were great for swimming. The lake bottom is a little rocky near the shallow water, so water shoes are a must. The property also has a lot of stairs to/from the lake, although that is not uncommon for lakehouses in the area. Overall, a great stay, and we would highly recommend for other large groups/families!
