Beautiful property but inaccuracy from listing
We had a great time and property was beautiful. When booking I had accidently put 1 person staying for a house that slept 12 people. Day before check in liability waiver was send&signed. Our guest arrived to property and the owner asked for the amount of people staying for housekeeping purposes. After telling him 12 there was a text stating there was an additional $50.00 per person per night but the rate that was already paid in full was for 8 people. After much discussion about us not being aware of this and talking with VRBO it was not stated ANYWHERE on the VRBO listing. Owner said that if I would have put anything but 1 person some message would have prompted a part stating anything after 8 was an additional charge. The house slept 12 but only really listed for 8 ppl. Several conversations were back and forth owner said that the extra fee was for housekeeping bc they charge $50.00/bed to clean but if we wanted to clean the sheets and make bed then it wouldn't be as much. We declined as we had a 10:00am check out and would not have had time to do that. Owner reduced the per person per night over charge to $25.00 instead of $50. Looking back at the liability wavier signed the day before it mentioned max occupancy was 12 and additional $25.00 would be added per person per night. And parties over 8 would be assessed. So he was overcharging from even waiver. We had 12 ppl staying and was not aware that we had to let owner know prior that we had 12 not 8.

Bugs in bed and an owner in denial
I really didn't want to do this, to send this or any negative reviews about my experience, but I feel compelled to inform people about what we discovered. The first time I stayed here, last year, it was great except we were contending with a leaky fridge and a fly problem. Upon leaving I notified Dale the owner about it and he acted surprised and said he'd take care of it. We returned this past October to a fridge that still leaked into a plastic bin in the basement ceiling and a fly epidemic. There were no less than a dozen dead flies in every room of the house that we cleaned ourselves. Upon reaching out to the owner, Dale quickly defended the house saying it was fly season and he was just there and didn't see any flies, which is absurd. I really wish I could post pictures here to show you what we documented. AND IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH, our family friends woke up with bites on their backs and arms and photographed a bunch of bugs in their bed. The owner contested this as well and asked me to bag a "Sample" for him. After we left he texted me and claimed to have not found anything. I quickly sent him one photo of one of the bugs in the bed and provided the location and date info of when the picture was taken: On his property the day we discovered them. (Again this would be real helpful if I could post the pics) He offered to give us a 1/2 refund if we didn't review him, I asked VRBO for a full refund but they unfortunately side with Dale. Makes me think twice now using VRBO

Secluded Escape
This was our family's 2nd stay at Overlook, a perfect escape from the city and busy work-life. Kitchen is stocked with just about everything you might need to prepare meals.The fireplace was a cozy touch for chilly fall days/nights and the supplied wood was super convenient. The hot tub was a fan favorite too! We stayed on the property for our entire stay with the exception of a day trip to Boyne to walk the Skybridge-a great experience with spectacular fall views! We all look forward to another stay at this property.

The place was everything the pictures show. Great view of the land from hot tube, nice front porch to listen to rain, and home was spaced out perfectly. Definitely recommend

About the host

Host profile image
I Grew up in Rochester Michigan moved up north to Antrim county in 1982 , I totally fell in love with this whole area , Torch Lake, Lake Michigan, Golf Boating, Flying all of the four great seasons we have up here, and love to share with others that can enjoy the same great feelings that northern Michigan bring to the sole.

Why they chose this property

I have always had a passion for real log homes, It is a dream home for many, I have had a few log homes but this one is the best, high on a hill very private paved dead end rd. Just outside of the town of Bellaire and very close to all the Lakes in the Area like Torch and Clam lake. The hunting and hiking on this rolling wooded land is the best.

What makes this property unique

This Home has a very warm Cozy feeling, kinda like a Norman Rockwell painting, Fully hand crafted 12 to 15 inch Red Pine Logs , A large Real Stone Fire Place, A view of the valley with no other homes in site. Peaceful in every way.
