Fabulous Family Getaway

With 3 adult children and their +1, we had plenty of room and access to great activities. Of course Walloon Lake is gorgeous, but the house itself is beautifully landscaped, equipped with more than expected, and oh so comfortable. We didn’t even have enough time to get into tennis or pickle ball, but appreciated the bikes and paddle boards and hammock and grille and so many great things that made our trip easy and fun. Great proximity to town, and easy travel to Charlevoix, Petoskey and more. Definitely will try to stay here again!

Great family home - Spectacular views!

If you are looking for the perfect family home (plenty of space) and some of the best views of Walloon Lake...this is the place to pick. I didn't expect it, but the kids had the most fun on the tennis/basketball court. Was a great addition to the vacation. Would highly recommend this as a rental to anyone wanting to stay near Petoskey/Boyne City. The moment you enter the driveway and into the front door, you'll be in heaven!

Very nice stay!

We really enjoyed staying at Bear Lodge. Great location and a nice sized house for a family ski trip. Do note that there is not a TV in the main open space which most of us minus the college aged kiddos cared about; fortunately there is a TV room with a bar to make up for it... :-) Only other consideration is there is no freezer in the kitchen, but fortunately there is a decent sized one in the garage. Many bedrooms with Jack and Jill style bathrooms upstairs and a very sizeable master on the main level. Megan was extremely responsive and helpful; especially when a few folks left things behind.

$2 Million Dollar Fixer Upper

This is an amazing property on a beautiful lake it is a shame that the owner has decided to not perform routine maintenance. They should not be able to demand premium rent with zero up-keep inside the house. If they spend half as much time on the inside as they do the beautiful gardens, this place would be a gem! There is duct tape everywhere: 1. Holding the dryer door closed 2. Holding the floor molding in place 3. Holding the umbrella from full collapse (safety issue #1) 4. Holding the room thresholds in place. There are also several safety issues: 1. The umbrella noted above 2. Several broken ceramic tiles in the entry way 3. The glass shower door in the master bath is not seated correctly and chipping into the shower. Other neglected maintenance issues: 1. Torn carpeting in several places 2. Missing handles on a kitchen drawer 3. Torn seat on a bar stool 4. Non-functioning fridge in the back room 5. ANTS EVERYWHERE in the kitchen 6. Empty beer cans under the couch found We raised these issues with the management company and were told that the owner is not willing to make the necessary changes. I am happy to pay top dollar for a quality property. This was an embarrassment.

Bear Lodge Ski Weekend

Four couples stayed at Bear Lodge for a long ski weekend. Pros: The house is large, in a beautiful location, and not far from our ski, spa, and shopping adventures. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of firewood available. Cons: House is in need of heating repairs, having to strip the beds and start laundry when a substantial cleaning fee is collected, and lack of communication/response during and post our stay. When we arrived, we noticed that the laundry room temperature (entry way) was very cold, which made the kitchen very cold, as well. I emailed Kidd and Leavy about it but did not hear back. The second evening, we noticed the master bed and bathroom were also cold and remained that way all weekend. I emailed Kidd an Leavy again (on Saturday) about the master bed and bath and called the maintenance number I was given. No response. We did not hear back from anyone the rest of the weekend. The master bedroom, master bath, kitchen, and laundry room remained very cold and uncomfortable. I received a response from Megan the day after we arrived home, to which she stated that she does not check her voicemail on the weekends, which is why she left her business card with a cell phone number. To be honest, we thought the cards were left as an advertisement and did not give them a thought. There was no note telling us to call a cell number if we had issues. I used the information in the communication I received during my booking and prior to arrival. I responded to her email about this and questioned when I would see the credit for the security deposit. No response. Four days later I forwarded that email again to Megan asking if she received it. No response. I called a week later and left a message for Wally and have yet to hear back from him. Due to selective communication, we will hesitate to rent a house/villa if Kidd and Leavy is the rental company.
