Private Beach!

My extended family had a wonderful, relaxing week at this spacious home. It was a great location for day trips to Pictured Rocks, Tahquamenon Falls/Whitefish Point, and Mackinac Island. The best part about the house though was the private beach right on Lake Michigan. We enjoyed the 2 kayaks that were provided, the clear water, and walking along the long stretch of shoreline. Michelle was a very responsive host and went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed.

Beautiful View

The place was great, plenty of room. The kitchen was awesome fully equipped. We had great fires at night. Sorry we could not make it down to the beach, since the access was damaged. Overall I’m hoping to come back with the rest of my family. Thank you.

Wonderful home and location!!!

We spent a week at this wonderfully appointed home with our adult children and grandchildren. It was absolutely amazing! Lots of fun things for the kids to do at the home because of the large fenced in side yard and access to Lake Michigan. There are quite a few steps to get to the lake but they are manageable and the lake is just breathtaking plus the home offers two nice kayaks and lots of sand to play in. The backyard has a fire pit, gorgeous views of the lake and has a very private feel. The floor plan of the home is great for large families and everyone was able to enjoy being together then retreat to their private bedroom and bathroom for privacy. The home has a convenient location and we took day trips to Mackinaw Island, Harbor Springs and Kitch-iti-kipi. The rules are posted on the refrigerator and the check out process was easy and straightforward. The owners were response to my questions prior to arriving and helpful with any questions during our stay. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer!

WONDERFUL view and great owners

We were a large group of 16, four families represented. This home fit us very well. Lots of space to spread out and each family had their own bedroom/bathroom. The side yard is completely fenced in and it is LARGE. We enjoyed yard games there and felt at ease that kids were safe as the hwy is nearby. The view in the back is stunning. Sitting by the bonfire and seeing the lake and sunset was simply amazing. Words can't do it justice! We loved staying here very much! There were a few things that we thought needed to be addressed for future tenants, especially with a larger crowd. We reached out to the homeowner after our stay and they were VERY receptive to those suggestions, stating they would get to them that next week. We really appreciated that and would recommend this place to anyone! Thanks for having us!

Family Fun!

Our family of 13 had a great time at this property right on Lake Michigan! The house is large enough for all of us to spread out and enjoy all of the amenities. We really enjoyed the game room in the lower level. Our dog really enjoyed the side yard, which is fully fenced! There isn't access to the lake, which we were told in advance, but there is great beach access just a few miles to the East. There is a wonderful hike just across the street at the Little Brevoort Lake boat launch area. Kitchen is well stocked and large enough for us to eat together as a family. There is a nice fire pit in the back, which we used a few times. After dark the mosquitos chased us inside, so we were sure to start the fire a little before dusk. Communication was always really fast and easy. The house was very clean. Location is great with easy access to Mackinac Island, St. Ignace, and some smaller towns to the West. We would definitely recommend this property to other large groups!

Nice place, but slightly overpriced

The property was nice with a great view and outdoor fire-pit. Our kids enjoyed the game room with the foosball table. However, it was a bit pricey for the location and amenities. Basic things were lacking in the kitchen, like sugar and a wine key. The sectional and living room recliners were so broken in places as to be unusable (one recliner was unusable and parts of the sectional were broken). There were no paper towels and we were limited to one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. Given the price of the property and large cleaning fee, we expected more amenities and less thrift with regard to toiletries and kitchen supplies. We have stayed at several other properties in this price range and found them more accommodating. Other small things, in the listing it looks like there are stairs down to the water. When we arrived there were large signs saying construction zone, do not enter. We went back and looked at the picture in the listing and the caption did mention the stairs where closed (the caption was not readily evident) but the picture made it look like the stairs were functional and the signs were conspicuously absent in the listing. Also there is an indoor fireplace listed, but it is not workable. We felt like things that don't work shouldn't be listed as amenities. Also, the property is very close to a loud, busy road that makes being outside less enjoyable. The road combined with the steep drop to the water makes the property a poor choice for those with small children.

Great getaway with unbeatable views!

We booked this property for a trip of two families totalling 10 people. We were looking for a place to stay while visiting Mackinac Island and Tahquamenon Falls. This place was perfect. Great location with easy access right onto highway 2 so we could get to everywhere. The house itself was very clean and well-maintained. We had plenty of room to spread out including a large basement with a secondary family room and walkout. The backyard is gorgeous with views of lake Michigan and a fire pit to enjoy. We had a hiccup with the entry keypad as well as the grill they had recently purchased, but the hosts were very responsive and happy to help however they could. Do yourself a favor and check out this rental for your next large group getaway.
