About this property

Large house on quiet canal of all-sport Eight Point Lake

With six bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, a living room and family room, you’ll find the right space to have the comforts of home while enjoying the relaxing atmosphere of a lake get-away. It is the perfect blend of family time located on a quiet canal with a DNR boat launch nearby. A neighborhood beach for swimming in the big lake is just down the road.

Our property has a sandy area for the kids to play but not an area for swimming. In the summer of 2025, the water in our canal dried up completely due to drought conditions. We are hoping for a snowy winter and rainy spring to bring back the water in front of our house. We provide kayaks that can be taken to the boat launch to drop in or for a river ride down the Muskegon River. There's a grill on the deck and nice play area for the kids. There's plenty of room for yard games like corn hole and ladder ball.

The house is just 3.8 miles away from the Pere Marquette Rail Trail which is great for walking, biking and snowmobiling. Six golf courses are within 30 miles and Soaring Eagle Casino is about 30 minutes away. Additional fun can be had tubing or kayaking down the Muskegon River which is only about 15 minutes away. Tubes, rafts & additional kayaks are available through J&J's River Run in Evart.

Nice vacation.

Plenty of room to spread out even with a large group. The house was as pictured and worked well for our family group coming together from around the U S. Lots of bathroom and kitchen space as well as lots of hot water even when most of us took showers.

Great up north property for large group

We loved looking out over the snow covered lake and the kids really enjoyed shoe skating on the ice. We visited several local Amish stores and enjoyed their homemade products. The owners were very great with communicating and helped with anything we needed during our stay.

Very nice vacation rental for large families. We had 18 family members from 3 years old to 71 year old. Everyone had a great time. Plenty of together space and separate places. younger kids loved playing on the playground area. Blackstone grill worked really nice. Just a nice fun place for family summer vacation

Plenty of space. Unfortunately the air wasn’t working on Sunday so we had to turn it off and wait for the compressor to thaw. It did work better for the next 11 hours. And one of the bedrooms, that had a portable unit did not work. Which ended up ok, because we ended up not using it. The water in the canal is pretty non existent, but the neighborhood beach was great!! Would we rent it again-definitely!

Great place for multiple family gathering!

Lots of sleeping options. So many amenities for young families - playground, sandy area, toys (outdoor & indoor). Nearby public beach was within easy walking distance and very nice access to the lake. Kitchen fully equipped. They provided everything you need but the food. Very accommodating with parking. The canal to the house is shallow but public boat landing is not too far, easy to use and very nice.

Relaxation.

The house was very clean. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. The back yard was fantastic. Big property to play yard games and have a bon fire. Plenty of beds for all. Owner was fantastic to work with. She answered questions right away and made contact simple. The place was very clean and had everything we couple possibly need. The area is quiet and relaxing.

We had a lot of fun

The home is very large, It took some time to find all the bedrooms. It has two kitchens. This was awesome for the number of family we had staying. We were here for wedding so unfortunately we didn't had a lot of time to enjoy the property. The address on the is really hard to find.

Our group of about 15 family and friends had a good time at the house. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. Nice deck, fire pit and grill. However the canal the house is on was all dried up. The owner told me the water levels were too low for boating but i didn't expect there to be zero water in the canal. There was a beach a few houses down we could have carried the kayaks to but the weather was too chilly to be in or on the water. It would have a bit of a hike to carry the kayaks and gear that far anyway, especially with a couple of little kids. We all had a good together despite the chilly weather and lack of a water view

Lots to do

Extremely fun property. I was a little disappointed we couldn't swim in the backyard Beach. The water was really mucky but there is a cleaner Beach just down the road in walking distance. The home wasn't the cleanest, some cob webs and such, but by no means disgusting as some of the other reviews say. It's a lake house, not a 5 star resort. I would take my family there again.

Nice stay

The home is definitely stocked for a big crowd. Lots of silverware and plates and cups. Plenty of supplies, but I had brought most everything not knowing for sure if there would be enough. I did bring 2 large frying pans because most places don't have those. The only thing was they had run out of gas for the grill, but we made do..There was a nice firepit with lots of wood. The beds were comfortable.

Family vacation

Every year we take our entire family, 19 of us, on vacation as a gift. This is hands down the best house we’ve ever rented. It’s huge, clean, well stocked with anything imaginable you could possibly need. The location is perfect! The kids had so much fun playing in the lake. And the adults got to relax on the deck without having to worry about the kids needing to be entertained. The kitchen was very well stocked with all types of cookware, utensils, plates, silverware, etc. Except for food, we didn’t have to bring anything with us or buy anything while we were there. There was even an ice maker that made large batches of ice.

Annual family vacay

Four generations, lots of outdoorsy activities available. The kayaks were of great use, great the firepit and blackstone, lots of extra seating outside. The checkin process provided all access to the home (not the garage),wifi access, etc, so that worked great. The play area for the kids was awesome! We were pleased with our stay!!! Many fish were caught in 8pointlake (walleye, pike, bass...) lots of fun. Some things that were different from other VRBO stays - many VRBOs have *new* towels, *new* matching linens, blah blah blah...this place didn't and we were FINE with that...It was a lived in feel - and there were plenty of towels, plenty of beds, linens, fans, AC was cool enough, etc. Great extra kitchen and play room for kids. Great for families:)

About the host

Hosted by Julie Cunningham

Host profile image
We are a blended family with five children and eight grand children. We love to spend time with our family on the lake!

Why they chose this property

We bought this house for our children and grand children to enjoy! We had been renting a house each summer for our family vacation and decided to buy this house. With six bedrooms and three bathrooms, it's perfect! Each adult child has their own room for their family. When we aren't using it, we wanted to provide the opportunity for other families to enjoy it!

What makes this property unique

There are two kitchens so plenty of space for cooking and storing food and drinks. Three bathrooms so no one is waiting. The family room is set up for the kids to enjoy. There's a table for coloring or playing games, toys and a tv so the kids can stream their favorites on a rainy day.
