Fantastic getaway with friends
This is a wonderful house nestled in the woods right on Lake Michigan. It was very clean, comfortable and the owners were very prompt and responsive when we needed to get in touch with them. We will definitely be looking to stay here again soon!

Girl's Weekend
Five women including me stayed in the rental for the weekend for a girl's weekend. The accommodations were perfect for our group. The view of the lake was amazing. I would love to stay here in the summer and enjoy the water/beach.

A Beautiful Spot
This is a cozy house with beautiful beach access on a lovely stretch of sand. House is well-appointed and somewhat remodeled, somewhat rustic, and dog friendly which was very important to us. It was perfect for our friends' weekend. Our host was always available for questions and checked in to make sure we were happy.

On the bay
We had a wonderful weekend unwinding with the great view of the bay. The house was very charming and plenty of room for separate family spaces:)

Fall weekend getaway!
Absolutely beautiful and very rustic. Nice location. beds are a bit firm so I would recommend that you bring an egg crate to put on mattress if you need a softer bed. When we first entered home we noticed it was musty, but no different that a cabin that has been closed up for a while. We got a couple of plug i. Air fresheners and that took care of the problem. No gas grill which was great because we haven't used o charcoal grill for a very long time. Our Pork loin turn out amazing. Best we've had in a very long time. Sitting out on the deck was probably my favorite. Very comfy Adirondack chairs. Enjoyed our lake view while sipping on my coffee. And the views from the main floor bedrooms were AMAZING!

Beach, Lake Views, Mid Century Decor - Wonderful
A wonderful place for our family get together. Location was secluded, but only a short distance from Traverse City. We enjoyed the beach (chairs provided) and the nice view of the lake out the window always present. The working upstairs fireplace was nice to sit around in the evening. We wanted to sit on the beach some nights, but the wind and rain prevented that, so the fireplace was a nice backup plan. Would recommend this location.

Beautiful Views, Relaxing Stay
We always have a great experience at this home. The unique design provides beautiful views of the East Bay. We can relax at the beach or on the expansive porch, or head to TC for dinner and shopping. Carole is always friendly and accommodating. We'll be back!
