This lakehouse is a great serene getaway, with numerous amenities (kayaks, paddle boards for the beautiful lake, plenty of indoor game materials like a ping pong table, foosball and more). The kitchen is well-equipped and numerous beds (with several private bedrooms) make this location perfect for a group/family stay.

Great Family Retreat

This place is great for a big extended family to stay at. Plenty of rooms and beds to spread out in. The lake was just big enough and was very pleasant to boat and swim in. The family had a blast with the many paddle boards provided by the dock.

Great location for a small gathering

we celebrated my husband's birthday with friends and family here. The house is just as pictured. The hosts are responsive. The lake is great for water activities. We did have a small issue with one of the bathroom toilets overflowing but that could have just been a fluke. Overall I would recommend and stay here again!

This is an amazing property with plenty of space for a large family. We had 13 adults and 3 kids and never felt crowded once! The host was amazing and prompt at answering questions and solving very minor issues and went out of her way to get Christmas decorations set up for us before we arrived. She even allowed us to arrive early which was great and helpful for us to get everything set up for our family Christmas before all our kids arrived. The large game room in the basement was a family favorite! I would highly recommend this property to anyone with a large family. A

Great holiday family gathering

What a wonderful time we had at this fabulous home on the lake. It is immaculate, cozy, roomy and the lower level was a hit. Excellent communication between host. Gourmet kitchen was well stocked! We had a group of 15 and never ran out of plates, silver or cups the whole time. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the fireplace and outdoor fire pit.. I highly recommend this beautiful home for your next vacation

A wonderful location for our family

"What a really good place for us to stay for the weekend" was the unanimous comment from our group. Plenty of sleeping spaces, sufficient bathrooms, efficient kitchen and dining area, and enjoyable activities in the house and nearby. Our family of 14 persons, living in three countries, has never been together before. We needed a place that made this experience a valuable time together. This house was perfect for us.

Great place

The house is very large and the amenities were all you could ask for. The 48 steep, wooden stairs to go down to the water was a lot. Especially for me with a bad leg. And most parents had to carry their kids. But was great once you got down there.

Amazing Home

This home is amazing! Anything you could possibly want or need is provided. The kitchen has great appliances as well as anything else you may need for ease of cooking in. The large table allows for everyone to eat together!! We didn’t have any outdoor time between the snow and our schedule, but that didn’t matter because there are multiple TVs as well as a pool table, ping pong table, foosball table and many board games. The beds are comfy and the bathrooms are well stocked and really nice! If you have a lot of people or want a lot of space to spread out, this is the place for you!!!

Michigan-finally

This is a beautiful property sitting on Duck Lake which has an inlet into Lake Michigan. Numerous kayaks and paddle boards are provided, as well as life jackets to fit a wide range of children up to large adults. The dock and ladder are good for launching the watercraft and for fishing. It's also a great spot for watching the sun set. The house is spacious with a well-equipped kitchen. A feature we appreciated was table and seating for twelve in the kitchen/dining area, which is duplicated on the large deck. The lower level is well done with a great game room, a "theater/TV" room, and a bedroom with full bathroom. A second refrigerator located in the lower level is great for chilling drinks and storing extra food. In the evenings, we made use of the fire pit for roasting hot dogs and s'mores. Campfire games and stories were a big hit. My family enjoyed the water activities on Duck Lake, as well as the beach at Lake Michigan. Proximity to the Silver Lake area provided an adventurous day at the dunes. Considering the activities our family enjoyed, this property is a possible repeat. Thank you Rachel, Hannah, and Pete.

This was a quick mid winter getaway for us with our kids and grandkids. The house, location and amenities were so awesome. The touches of extra soap, paper products, fully stocked kitchen ware was superb! Game room downstairs amazing! We will be coming back for sure! Thank you for everything!

Perfect for family time

We had a great time enjoying family. The house was perfect for our group and the kids loved the game room. Other than a slight difficulty at check in (sounds like this was self resolved, I was not the first one there) and communication with property manager (again related to check in but all was well in the end)it was a great stay. Would definitely book it again. The perfect place for time with family.

Everything you need for a great vacation.

We had a wonderful week at this home. This house is set up perfectly for all ages We had 3 families staying here along with a year and a half year old a 3 year old and a 4 year old. Everyone had their own space so we all got good night sleep. Kitchen was very well stocked -plenty of dishes silverware glasses -we never ran out -and the best is the great large fridge and another one in the basement. Perfect for all the food we brought with us. Grocery stores are a little bit of a drive. Great deck overlooking the lake with plenty of chairs and gas grill was a real plus. Shed by the lake had all the life jackets we needed even for the little ones and 4 kayaks and 4 stand up paddle boards we used to paddle across the lake to the state park and to Lake Michigan. Wonderful week Hoping to be back next year.

LOVELY HOME ON THE LAKE!

We had 18 family members ranging from ages 6 months to 90! There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The kids loved the large room with 5 beds upstairs so they could all sleep in the same room. The house was nicely decorated. The basement was amazing with the pool table, ping pong table and foosball table. We loved it. The deck was nice to hang out on. The lake was beautiful. There were so many kayaks and stand up paddle boards, all of our family members could go on the lake together. The kitchen had everything you needed and plenty of room in the house to hang out with everyone at once. We had a great time!!
