We had a wonderful girl's trip. The owner is accommodating and friendly. The neighbors were very nice to us. The house is clean, spacious, right on the lake. It is also very close to Lake Huron. Highly recommend!

Comfortable Relaxing Stay!
We truly enjoyed our stay at The Van Etten Lake Chalet! It has everything you need for a comfortable relaxing stay! The kitchen is well equipped, the beds are comfortable, the bathrooms and living spaces are clean and spacious. Grab bars have been installed for safety and assistance if needed. The view of the channel is pretty. We chose this location for its proximity to some birding sites and to Lake Huron. The location is away from traffic but has easy access to main roads. Nice! The hosts are very responsive and they provided great instructions. We had a great experience here. Thank you!
