Weekend getaway

My brother and sister in law and myself were looking to getaway for a weekend. When i found this propert i instantly fell in love. When we got there, the pictures didnt do it justice. We had fun kayaking, hot tubing, and grilling outside. David and his wife were very accommodating, told them we would be late so Yvette turned the hot tub on for us so we could relax. Really loved this place and planing to revisit in the near future

Wonderful relaxing getaway

This property exceeds the pictures! Everything was better than expected. Plenty of room for the whole family. From the pond, water wheels, river, inter tubes, kayaks, and paddle boat. There’s plenty to do on the property, books, toys, inside and out for the kids, two beaches, the bridge to the island, and feeding the fish. It’s hard to pick one favorite thing! (Possibly the hot tub!) we had a great time with our family cooking meals, walking the property, and having fires at night. If you forget something they probably have it! We spent a day in travers city, but found ourselves excited to get back to the house! Amazing hosts to a truly magical home. We look forward to our next stay! Can’t say enough good things.

Pond house beyond expectations

This was an absolute beautiful property. Very well maintained had everything we needed. The property was huge with a spring fed pond. It was a great time feeding the fish in the pond, beautiful coy and quite unexpectedly enjoyable. The hot tub was very nice but it needed steps on the side where the step to ge in is. A wounderful serene stay with fire pit and family time.
