Quiet getaway
We enjoyed our stay, the home was very clean and had everything we needed. It’s a bit off the beaten path but we enjoyed the quiet setting. Especially loved seeing the family of deer and swans. We had hoped to do some kayaking but the lake was quite shallow and had lots of vegetation along with a pretty steep hill to pull kayaks back to garage. Close to lots of wineries and orchards

Beautiful house on receding lake
Loved the house and host was communicative, however the lake is disappointing. The shoreline is swampy and lake appears to be receding. Swimming isn't possible, and all the growth and lily pads surrounding the pier made fishing impossible too. We did enjoy the surrounding woods and hiking nearby.

Great house
Our family loved this cottage. It was the perfect size for the 5 of us. The updates throughout were great. The lake wasn't one we would swim in, as it was filled with lilypads and just not super clean, but the views were gorgeous. Definitely recommend!

Great stay for Notre Dame football weekend
This house was great for an “up north” feel less than 40 minutes from Notre Dame. Easy drive down: The hosts communicated really well. Great stay!

Clean, cute & relaxing
This Vrbo is super clean, nicely rehabbed, well stocked with a pretty view to boot. This house has a great layout to enjoy some quality time with the family with the main floor being a large, open kitchen & dining to a walkout deck, bedrooms up and out of the way and tv / game room downstairs for the kids. You are surrounded by nature with just a few neighbors and a dirt road to get to the house. The lake is great for pretty views, kayaking and frog catching. We enjoyed our stay!

If you are looking for nature, rest, relaxation, peace and quiet…this is the place. Beautiful setting, beautiful, convenient location to town and Lake Michigan. Great fishing. Really loved our stay.

Wonderful stay!
Our VRBO house was very clean, and you could tell that extra attention was given to cleanliness. The beds and bedroom space were very accommodating. The use of the kitchen and appliances was very efficient. Although the upstairs bedrooms were a little warm, we were able to adjust the temperature and the ceiling fans helped. The bathrooms were clean and accommodating. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would consider going back there for a future family reunion in the area.
