Beautiful and Peaceful Family Getaway

Thank you so much Carol for sharing your wonderful place with us. Beautiful and spacious home with a wonderful view throughout the house of the lake. My boys loved fishing off the dock and caught many fish! All the beds were very comfortable. Quiet and pleasant neighborhood. The house was clean and welcoming, with many little things that we haven't had with many of our VRBO rentals. Usually you have to buy all the little things like toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, etc. Carol had them all. Yard is well kept, very inviting for our dogs and kids to play. Enjoyed nightly fires while looking at the lake. Beautiful lakes to cruise on and swim in. If you are looking for a wonderful, peaceful place on the lake with their own dock, look no further. Whenever we visit here again, we will definitely rent from Carol. Thank you again!

Peaceful and Lovely Home

I loved this place from the moment I walked in the door. Then as soon as my daughter (and son) saw the rooms and available "amenities," my daughter specifically told "me to make sure to leave the best review!" Thank you Carol for sharing your home with my family!

Million Dollar View

We enjoyed our stay on Belleville lake very much. The views from the yard, first and second floor windows were great. It was a bit chilly, but with the sun shinning we sat by the large windows and almost felt we were outside. We enjoyed watching the bald eagles, loons, and other waterfowl on the lake. We also enjoyed watching the crew team each day that launches across the lake. The home is lovely and suited our needs perfectly for our five day stay the beds are extremely comfortable and kitchen is fully equipped with great appliances, including the five burner gas oven. The neighborhood is lovely and very quiet. The 1.6 acre lot would be fun in the summer for games and picnics. We will be back!

Excellent except cleanliness

Cleanliness of the property was disappointing to say the least. I recommend the owners fire their housekeeping staffs. Just to mention egregious cleanliness issue- somebody elses dirty socks were under the bed, unwashed dishes in the kitchen, dog pop laying around in the yard, linen not washed. Furniture was old enough that I had to tell my 200lb husband to not sit on some of those chairs/ recliner with the fear of breaking and paying damage fees. Everything else was perfect.

Clean & great location

My initial concern was from past reviews about the cleanliness but when I contacted the owner she explained she has a new cleaning lady. I can attest that the new cleaning lady is doing a GREAT job as the entire property was VERY clean. Great location on the lake and owner was very responsive. I highly recommend!

Peaceful Setting

Beautiful, peaceful setting with view of the lake on a quiet street. Older home, but functional with ample bedrooms. Kitchen is spacious with updated appliances, but bottom cupboards have slight older home odor. Loved how the home was fully stocked with plenty of towels and linens and all the supplies you need such as dishwasher soap and trash bags and cleaning supplies.

Beautiful view of the lake

Rustic look and feel. Beautiful view of the lake from the kitchen dining area. Too bad it was cold - i imagine it would be great to sit at the dock in summer. Prompt and easy communication with the host.

Lakehouse

The home is in a very quiet neighborhood and is as described. It is an older home with a newer kitchen. Great view of lake and even saw a Bald Eagle. This is not a modern home but if your good with that you will be satisfied. Great communication with owner.

August Rental

We had trusted the host’s promised refurbishment of our 2022 ‘s rental of this residence would kept; it was disappointing to arrive inside & find it in worse condition. If we hadn’t business & leisure plans, our pet & monthly available rentals in the area, we would have left. Our family gathering was held elsewhere due to home condition. Lack of: interior & exterior deep cleaning of home including windows & blinds, carpentry & plumbing repairs, furniture repair and/or removal, basement odor & clutter, lack of & sub par amenities for a prearranged monthly rental. A 4 day power outage resulted in lost $ in food & freezer items, owner late response of accommodation of her newly furnished rental nearby @ end of power outage (1 nite). Didn’t feel host cared esp. given 2nd opportunity.

Perfect for what we needed

The house was exactly what we needed - a rustic lake cottage located in the middle of family we came to visit. Host graciously accommodated my dogs. House wasn’t the cleanest, but that’s part of the Michigan lake vibes. Perfect for a couple friends to come by and sit in the yard by the campfire looking at the lake view. Stairs to lake were steep as pictured. Not really a swimming lake but good for boats, paddle boards etc. Would recommend.

Great quiet location

Very dog friendly - our occasionally standoffish dog made a friend with another dog while walking. He loved to watch the ducks and the fishermen. There is a great ‘reading room’ upstairs with a view of the lake. We really enjoyed our relaxing stay. The kitchen is well stocked with new appliances. It felt like every room had a chair with the option to put your feet up.

Older home

The kitchen with the view of the lake is the best thing about the property. We brought in the outside patio table to have enough room for everyone to sit, as kitchen table was very small. The living room is small and dark. Enough seating for six. The bathroom upstairs is extremely old and could use updating. Roomy bedrooms upstairs, all with in window air. This lets little flying gnats in. The downstairs bathroom was constantly filled with gnats. If you are ok with an old house, the view is very nice.

We enjoyed our stay very much. It was in close proximity to the ball fields. The boys enjoyed fishing from the docks. The house was certainly roomy enough and had everything we needed. Would definitely book again if returning to the area.

Two story house & Two stories to the lake

This home was nice to have for 7 adults, it required some sleeping arrangements as some bunked together but 3 bedrooms upstairs & 1 Downstairs plus an office and the kitchen/dining room area overlooking the lake. Full unimproved basement with concrete floor & washer / dryer . Home has a nice large kitchen & side by side full size refrigerator with large freezer drawer.. Lots of cabinets/ countertops. Living room furniture is adequate but not great, recliner/sofa is a bear to get the foot back down & locked. Office just off living room has a huge wood desk & an office chair which we used in the living room since there was really only 4 seating spots. Wi-Fi was flawless and working from there was no issue. Only two TV’s one in living room- smart tv & one upstairs in master bedroom also a smart tv. Upstairs bathroom has a stand up shower & good hot water but faucet is backward so cold is hot & hot is cold. It does take a few minutes to get hot water upstairs but it’s good. Upstairs toilet good for adults. Downstairs has a full bathtub/shower and what we refer to as a “hobbit” toilet as it’s low and has a tiny round bowl, not great for adults today. Great location, quiet lakefront property. Be advised the owner has a fairly new stairwell going down to the lake but it’s literally like 2-3 stories down to the dock from the top. Overall great experience.
