Fall Colors
Very nice and very cozy. Functional, quite, and clean. The kitchen is well equipped, not everything but enough to make due. No need to make calls during the week because something was not working or had broke. Fall colors where peak, playing golf on the Royal was superb, and kayaking on Lake of the Clouds magical. Would stay again.

Perfect
We had a Halloween sleepover for three friends and our six kiddos. The five twin beds in one room was perfect! The place was very clean, kitchen well stocked with appliances and utensils, and in a gorgeous area. Absolutely loved the front deck with string lights. I forgot my kindle when we checked out and the lovely owners shipped it to me. Five stars all around.

Peaceful, relaxing weekend
This house was a comfortable and peaceful place for 5 older adults and a dog to stay. A beautiful location and nice place to take walks. The light outside the door did not work when we were there but I let the owner know and I"m sure it's been rectified by now.

Quiet and relaxing
Very comfortable and spacious. Amenities were great and clean. Just as it was explained online. Excellent fire pit. Location was wonderful, quiet, secluded, lots of trees and places to walk. Canadian lakes offer so much to do. One thing is someone needs to tighten some of the bolts on the chairs on the front deck.

Cozy in a quiet natural setting
The property was exactly as described. Very cozy inside, beds were very comfortable, and we had everything we needed. During our stay there was an ice/snow storm and we were stuck inside. There were games to play, word search, books to read, Roku and coloring books for our stay-cation. It was exactly what we needed for our short getaway with family & fur babies. Thank you for sharing your property!

Great place for a quiet getaway
We rented this place because we wanted to enjoy a weekend “up north” with our 4 month old, our dog, and a set of grandparents. We had zero plans other than lounging around for a quiet weekend. The place was just as expected. Communication was great with the owners. We had everything we needed to cook a meal, enjoy Morning coffee and get some little walks in. It was close to a grocery store and a restaurant. We would definitely stay again! If I were to offer a tip to someone going in the winter, the house takes a little bit to heat up, so bring a hoodie and some slippers for the first evening there. You will definitely enjoy the place and make some good memories! Thanks to the owners for a great weekend away.

Beautiful lake home
My husband and I traveled from Dunwoody, Ga to Big Rapids, MI to pick up some family heirlooms after my dad and aunt passed away a few months ago. We booked this gorgeous home on the Canadian Lakes to relax and unwind. The home is fully renovated, cozy and warm. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to cook. The furniture was so comfortable and the decor was fabulous. The bedrooms and bathrooms were immaculate. King size bed was so comfortable!! We enjoyed going for long walks up to the castle and golf course after each emotional day packing up my dads things. The neighbors we met were so nice. The leaves were in full color too. Faye was an amazing host and answered questions promptly when I had them. This place is a beautiful slice of happiness and I highly recommend staying here. It’s amazing!!!

Peaceful & comfortable
This property was nothing short of amazing! Faye was very communicable and personable for our stay. My sisters and I get together annually in remembrance of our mother and have a "Puzzle & Wine" weekend. Faye was aware of our event and left us a bottle of wine upon arrival, which was incredibly sweet of her! The cabin itself was beautiful! Very beautifully updated yet still had a very cabin-feel to it. Everything we could possible need was there at our disposal! There was plenty of space for all 5 of us adults and 6 children. The surrounding area was so nice and peaceful--exactly what we always hope for when doing this weekend get together each year. The scenery was soothing. We didn't leave the house for anything and cooked all of our meals there. Kitchen was fully stocked of cookware and tableware. Faye provided a couple of passes to have access to nearby amenities but we didn't need for them at all, so I can't speak on that aspect... All of the beds were very clean, very comfortable-and NEW, stacked with plush pillows and comforters that made us feel like we were sleeping in the best hotel bed ever! Having 2 full bathrooms was a huge plus with the amount of guests we had...hot water ran out couple times on us as 2 showered and we were cleaning the kitchen at once--so I advise against trying to wash dishes/run dishwasher and have multiple people showering at once but that wasn't a big problem at all. Overall, this stay was perfect! I speak for my sisters and I when I say we were very, very satisfied with the house! And the whole time we kept saying we would definitely stay again! You will NOT be disappointed booking here!
