Great location and we’ll stocked!

We stayed with our older teenage kids and a couple family friends. We all thought the property and location were wonderful. The upper deck overlooking the lake is the perfect place to relax and enjoy morning coffee! We enjoyed use of the kayaks and the large sandy area with the volleyball net and cam jam! The house was nicely stocked with most essentials including lots of kitchen necessities. And having a full size washer and dryer was an added bonus. We all had a great time and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again or to recommend this property to family and friends.

Waterfront lake house

We had a wonderful time. The cabin was nice and clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the beach, fishing off the pier and fires in the fire pit. We took trips to Ludington and Pentwater. We would definitely go back.

Convenient setting, comfortable

Property as portrayed. Home was well maintained and amenities for all ages to enjoy. Dune, Lake Michigan access while possible was not abundant; all with a fee.

Absolutely Amazing Waterfront Property!

I would give this home 10 stars if I could! My family of 8 adults and our pups stayed here for the week. It was absolutely wonderful! The location on Upper Silver Lake is perfect! The pups loved swimming; we enjoyed laying out on our lake floats; the dock was great - hooked up our boats and enjoyed fishing on the lake. Stacy is a wonderful host. She absolutely thought of everything - from comfortable beds for everyone, to kayaks and paddleboats, plenty of dishes and cookware, grill, volleyball net and fire pit, beach chairs - you name it and it was there for us to use and enjoy. Oh - and we were so thankful that air conditioning was recently added to the home. Sometimes you don't need it in Michigan, but we were so thankful to have it this week! Weather was PERFECT and sunny all week, and all 8 of us and the four-legged family members had the time of our lives. We will absolutely be back again! Thank you, Stacy for everything!!

About the host

Hosted by Stacy Thomas

My name is Stacy. I grew up on Upper Silver Lake. Ive spent every summer of my child hood here, and every year of my adult life trying to get back here! I joined the Air Force as a Nurse out of collage which has brought me all over the world. I have returned to Upper Silver Lake and plan to spend many summers to come with family and friends at the greatest lake on earth (Upper Silver Lake).

Why they chose this property

How I came to buy this place is actually a great story. I was paddleboarding with my mom (on this lake of course) and we passed right in front of this cottage... like I have probably done thousands of times in my life. We were looking to see a different property that I was thinking of buying. However, as we passed this cottage, the owners were outside with clip boards and what looked to be a real-estate agent. I randomly asked them if they were thinking about selling... and just a few weeks later I signed the closing documents! Some people would call it fate. This place was meant to be!

What makes this property unique

This property has one of the best views on the lake. A covered deck and walk out basement patio face the west for some of the most amazing Michigan sunsets.
