Everything about staying at The Swedish Fish either met or exceeded our expectations. So many details contributed to the sense of comfort and welcome. Sarah provided warm and responsive communication. We definitely hope to be back!

Couldn’t ask for anything more
The house was beautifully accommodated for all 8 of us. What was really special was we could spread out and have private conversations. We are seven siblings who haven’t been together in a long time and we’re so grateful for The Swedish Fish House and the Andersons.

Incredible place
Our extended family of 12 had such a wonderful time! The kitchen was stocked well enough to cook a complete Thanksgiving meal from scratch! Sara was a wonderful host answering any questions we had quickly! The view is beautiful! Didn’t get to enjoy the kayaks and water because of the time of year, but we all agree we want to come back when it’s warmer to fully enjoy the house and lake!! Oh and beds were comfy too!!

Family connection time
House was perfect for our needs — great space and lovely environment. Would have liked more sunshine, but the girls got in the water anyway and had a great time, coming out blue lips and all. Kitchen was well-supplied and the beds were comfortable—essentials for a good stay. We enjoyed ourselves and appreciated the hosts communications.

Girls Getaway
This was the perfect location for our annual Girls getaway, so much so that we decided to make it a bi annual event and use this location again. There were 8 of us, which meant everyone got their own bed, the dining table was set for 8 and having a family room to watch tv and work a puzzle, plus a living room where the couch and recliners were used to curl up with a book was fantastic. We also had walkers and kayakers in the group who got to meet the neighbors who were very friendly, one neighbor actually went out of their way to flag us down and tell us what a great group we were and shared a bottle of wine for us to enjoy! The house was also fully stocked with more than everything we needed!

Lake St Clair lakefront
The house had a wonderful lake view. There was plenty of space with nice sized rooms. The beds were all very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with nothing left out. The owners were very responsive to any questions. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a lakefront getaway.
