Childhood Friends Who Are Now 30+

We take an annual trip as a group of friends to a lakehouse, and this location was absolutely superb. We will be returning in future years. The paddle boat and lily pad were big hits. The beds and seating were all comfortable. Great distance to local activities.

What a Wonderful Home!

We enjoyed the cozyness of the house, the access to the beautiful lake right in the back yard, the kind neighbors, the short drive to Lake Michigan. Communication with the owner was fantastic! The house had kayaks, a canoe, water toys for the kids to play with in the lake, the peddle boat and private dock. We cooked in the kitchen often and it had everything we needed. We grilled out several times and again, had everything we needed. There were plenty of towels and blankets, and I appreciated the access to the laundry room where we did several loads during our stay. The family had fun playing ping pong in the garage and cornhole in the back yard. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and it was fun for us to explore the area. We would certainly come back to this house again. What a wonderful experience!

Great place for family gathering

We reserved this property last year for my husband’s birthday. We enjoyed it so much that we went back again this year and plan to next year as well. The guys enjoyed fishing and got enough for a fish fry. The kids loved the sandy beach and we all enjoyed the toys they left for us to use. Karen rocked - she made sure we had everything we needed and was a perfect host.
