Great Property and Host

Wonderful lakefront house nestled in Irish Hills area. Very secluded and host is extremely accommodating. Great for families as there is an orchard nearby with fun things to do with kids of all ages. The house is very modern and clean. Our family did a weekend trip to celebrate our oldest daughters birthday. We were here in peak fall color and thoroughly enjoyed the colors and serenity.

Family vacation

The property had a very pretty view and a lot of activities to do in the lake. The patio was screened in, which was very convenient for our dogs. The place was very clean and spacious. The house had appliances, board games and beach towels, which was appreciated. We would definitely return for another get away.

Beautiful lakefront. Lower unit only though. Which I thought was misleading on the profile. But that didnt affect the stay. Private with owner next door for anything you might need to ask about the property. Communication good. Caught various types of fish ...blue gill, perch,largemouth bass, rock bass. Nice shady area to sit. Sandy beach area. Nice covered porch with plenty of seating. Very peaceful tranquil setting. Kayaks and paddle board available were an added touch that the grand kids loved. Not as pricey as many others in the area for what you get to enjoy. Overall wonderful stay and recomend to anyone wanting to recharge and unwind by a beautiful lake.
We brought inflatable boat with a trolling motor. Perfect 👌

Magical and private beachfront home

I stayed here for 36 hours to check it out for my family trip in September. The place is on 6 acres and on a warm and quiet spring fed lake. I swam back and forth across the lake without a boat in site. The owner (a father with 4 adult children) was most accommodating. He let me have an early check in and late check out. He had bikes, kayaks and paddle boards. I had never been on a paddle board so he gave me a free lesson. This was the only time I saw him the entire weekend except when I also bugged him to help me build a fire in his pit. This truly is a magical place where you can unplug from the world. If you happen to be working the wifi is also amazing. I can’t wait to bring my wife and 3 young girls to this magical place this year and every year. Thanks Bill for letting me stay at your magical place. I'm hoping he gives my wife and daughters paddle board lesson too.

Hi John-Thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience! I am so glad to hear that you had such an incredible time on the lake, and that you enjoyed your stay. I cannot wait to have you back, you were a fantastic guest. I was happy to be available for you during your stay, and I am also so glad to hear that you had such a great time learning to paddle board. Please do not hesitate to reach out if anything else comes up, and I look forward to your next booking!- Best, Bill

Our group was in town for a wedding, the venue was a 6-minute drive, couldn't have gotten a better location! We truly enjoyed our stay here and were able to take full advantage of the large number of amenities this property provided. We loved the kayaks and paddle board (life jackets provided), used the firepit with ample firewood, and cooked dinner on the grill. We also played pickleball and hiked through the wooded area on the property. Our hikes were lots of fun, lots of mushrooms and nature to discover. We saw tons of wildlife including a supercool owl! The space was nicely laid out, giving everyone their own area to escape while also having great gathering areas. There is only one bathroom, but it was large and had plenty of space for everyone to keep their items. My bed was extremely comfortable and had lots of closet/ dresser space. This property is great for almost any group, just a heads up, there is a slight slope from the driveway to the entryway, without a walkway or railing. This was not an issue for us; however, it may be for others. We also enjoyed farm stands in the area, getting delicious, fresh homemade bread, honey, and eggs. These were the grab what you like and leave your payment type stands. We also got ice-cream with the largest scoops I've ever seen! Lots of close restaurants and stores to get anything you might need. There was clear communication from the owner, would recommend this property and love to stay again! Thank you for everything!

Weekend fun with the grandkids

I’ve never rented property before and this was a great experience. We had all the amenities we needed. The kids caught lots of fish and we had a fish fry. They loved the kayak and paddle board. Nice weather for sitting on the patio playing games. Grilled some burgers on the grill provided. We went to Michigan speedway and it was easy access. I would highly recommend this property.

Lake Getaway

Had a great long weekend here with my wife, kids, and parents. It was everything we were hoping for to relax and have fun, lake right off the backyard, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. Enjoyed a campfire every night watching the boats go by, quiet and peaceful. The owners were great and accommodating, would definitely visit again!
