Excellent family vacation spot

We just ended a wonderful week at this lovely big house. It was perfect for our extended family with enough bedrooms for all, lovely furnishings in great condition, fantastic views and lots of water toys, an abundance of paper products & supplies, and immaculately clean (thanks Delaney!). The house manager Autumn was so easy to interact with, very responsive and accommodating. This was a great house and a great vacation.

Spacious, beautiful house

Plenty of room, nicely landscaped. Easy communication with host, no hot pads, called and they were brought over. Railing off deck going down stairs outside though is loose, seemed wobbly. Only thing is bring your own soap for showers as no soap is provided for shower/tub area. Truly a beautiful nice location

Perfect!

Fabulous 70th birthday celebration with grown kids and grands. The house is clean, well-equipped, and offers lots of space. The kids had a blast playing in the lake and the beach front was shallow enough for our three year old. Autumn was sweet and accommodating. She’d even coordinated with our beach equipment company to have umbrella and beach toys delivered and waiting for us

Long Lake House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is gorgeous. The host was very helpful. The house is located very close to the Long Lake Inn which serves great food and watched the NFL Draft in Detroit on their huge tv on the main floor with a couch that was large enough for our group, the sweeping views made our stay enjoyable and the kitchen had every convenience. Then we scheduled a Wine Ride to the Mission Point Peninsula with Grand Traverse Tours and they also stopped at the Lighthouse. We visited 3 wineries and I wish we stopped at a pizza place on our return because all pizza is by pickup not delivery. The family wanted to stay longer and are looking at ways to come back in the future. The neighbors kept to themselves. It was a lovely quiet weekend for all concerned. Very relaxing.

Wonderful home! So spacious!

This was a perfect home for the week for 7 of us. We even had so much extra space. The new updates not pictured are very nice. Kitchen is very well stocked except there is no garbage disposal & need more dishtowels. Master bath shower was amazing. Great A/C in the entire house also! Location was good for what I know (1st time in that area). Loved the fire pit and dock. Outdoor chairs by fire pit definitely need replaced. Quite a few were cracked and one even broke on one of us while sitting in it. The boats were nice but missing a few accessories but still useable. Hot tub was just ok. The beach volleyball was just a few steps away! Well stocked with linens/towels, etc. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Overall, had a great visit. This was our second visit at this location, and 2 years since last stay under a another owner. The property manager, was outstanding. She communicated well and was responsive to any question. The Housekeeper was great as well and left the place in great shape when we checked in. My comments are as follows: 1.) Hot tub needs serviced and a regular routine. 2.) Door going from kitchen to deck wouldn't latch. 3.) Need to check light bulbs both inside and out. A lot were burnt out and need replacing. 4.) Finally, the final count on the paddle boards-4(four), and the kayaks-3(three) in the shed down by the water. 5.) House is great for family reunion. Your company is easy to deal with and are quite responsive.

Beach House on Long Lake

The Beach House on Long Lake is a fabulous home on the lake with beach frontage. The home is spacious and a great place to entertain a large number of people. We found the home to be comfortable and clean. The furniture is currently being updated so the descriptions of the bed sizes did not match perfectly with the description on VRBO, some are queen beds and not kings. But all of the beds were comfortable. The new sectional in the basement makes for a great viewing room while the new dining table seats 10 people. While we had a few maintenance issues, particularly related to the spa not working properly and lack of spa maintenance. I can say the management company worked diligently to correct the issues, draining, cleaning and refilling the spa (they are still trying to work out an issue with the jets when we departed. I would recommend the management company work out a process for disposing of the trash in the garage left by previous renters when the weather is extremely warm as the smell can permeate to some of the rooms. The management company was very response and we appreciated their quick responses. I would rent this home again.
