This was our second trip to this home, and it was just as nice as the first time. We love the yard and view. It has everything you need and enough space to relax. We look forward to returning next time we are in the area!
Lovely waterside cottage. The house was very well stocked with items like coffee, paper products and cleaning supplies. The hosts were timely with communications and flexible to our needs. I would recommend this VRBO!
Perfect blend of access to both lake and shopping. This was the most well appointed and equipped VRBO I've ever stayed at. It was like coming home to Mom's house where everything you needed was right where you expected it, and it was all planned for your comfortable stay. Super clean, and just a lovely place inside and out.
We wanted a laid back weekend and it was perfect! The house is very clean and spacious, the view of the lake was beautiful, I brought my 2 golden retrievers and they enjoyed it as much as I did, the fenced yard was great! Looking forward to renting it again next summer!
The house was just right for our family Christmas! Thankful that our host had decorated for the holidays, making it feel more like being at home. Very well appointed kitchen. Fun to sit by one of the many windows and watch kids skating on the frozen lake, and wonder if the people ice fishing were having any luck.Loved all the special vintage touches throught the house.
This property and the owners were so friendly and responsive...the house was so nice to stay in...it was perfect for our weekend getaway! It was also really cool and made it even more special that they shared their house with us, as the owners shared a special story of how the acquired the house...a very special family bond and story! We sooo appreciated staying there and had such a wonderful time!
My family enjoyed our stay on the lake. The home is adorably decorated and comfortable. The view of the lake is gorgeous. The hosts were very responsive. You will enjoy your stay!
Had a great weekend at the lake with the family. Everything about the house was great. The house is so very well stocked with everything you could need. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
Pretty property overlooking a smallish lake. Nice backyard. We very much appreciated the back yard and neighborhood for walking our dog. And although he is not a water dog, he enjoyed being out back and watching the "goings on" at the lake: the fishing, the ducks, etc. The property was very comfortable for our 4 day stay.
This house was the perfect place for a relaxing week at the lake for our family and dogs. Full kitchen made it easy to make meals. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch and watching the lake activities.
We were looking for a place to spend some time near our family in Michigan during the holidays. The cottage was a great fit and in a great location. It had everything we needed and more. Much more pleasant than staying in multiple rooms at a hotel

So happy you enjoyed your stay!! You and your family are welcome anytime.
We stayed here for my niece’s graduation. We had fun exploring Howell, Ann Arbor and Northville. The deck has a lovely view of the lake and it is a great place to kick back. The kitchen is well appointed but there are plenty of good restaurants nearby.
We had a great time Rob & Sandra are wonderful hosts and took care of all our needs. Yard was great for our pets. It was very peaceful and quiet as well with plenty of things to do nearby as well.
I only wish we had more time at this home. We loved everything about it as we have family close by to drop in during our week. Nicely furnished, cozy , outside amenities were outstanding. Hope we can return next year.
We fell in love with North Shore House! Everything about it felt welcoming and cozy and it was very well supplied. Sandra and Rob are gracious hosts, going above and beyond to accommodate us. Communication with them was outstanding! Fishing is best if you can get out onto the lake. Wilson Marine rents pontoon boats only, they are on lake Chemung. The Howell-Brighton area has all the familiar stores and restaurants as well as small, quaint businesses. I definitely recommend staying here. We didn’t want to leave!
We spent four nights ( 2 adult couples) and our dog for a lake/golf long weekend. House was perfect for our stay. Kitchen has spices, aluminum foil etc. Great access to the water with your own dock. Fenced in yard is perfect for a dog. Great golf courses within a 25 minute drive. We would definitely stay here again!
