About the host
Hosted by CHRIS KELLEHER
What do you want guests to know about you?
My wife, Susie, and I love hosting and take pride in creating memorable experiences for our guests. We own two vacation rentals in Harbor Country. Our first home, The Rambling Hideaway in Union Pier, has earned consistent 5-star reviews for both the property and the service we provide, and is in the top 10% of rental properties on Airbnb nationally. In 2021, we purchased and fully renovated this second home in Lakeside—adding a pool, new outdoor living spaces, and high-quality furnishings throughout. Since then, it too has received nearly all 5-star reviews.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this property in 2021 because of its location and potential. Tucked away on a large wooded lot with spacious front and back yards, it offers both privacy and convenience. The house sits on the lake side of Red Arrow Highway, just a short walk to the beach via the new pedestrian pathway. We designed the renovations with guests in mind—installing a heated pool with a landscaped patio, upgrading lighting and furnishings, and creating indoor and outdoor spaces that feel both stylish and welcoming.
What makes this property unique
*This home blends the best of both worlds: the peace of a secluded wooded setting and the fun of a beach-town getaway. Few rentals in the area offer:
New heated private pool with a full patio and lounge area
Large yard for games, gatherings, or simply relaxing under the trees
Modern renovation with quality finishes and thoughtful design throughout
*Walkability to the beach, restaurants, wineries, and shops via the safe new pathway
*Comfortable accommodations for up to 10 guests, making it ideal for families or groups
*Conveniences - two TVs with Direct TV, everything you will need in a house for cooking, everything is new and in good shape.
*Guests consistently tell us they love the combination of privacy, amenities, and convenience—making it a standout choice in Harbor Country.
