Amazing house and amenities!!
My family stayed at this house Aug 2024 for an entire week. So much room and though a little windy for our liking this week, there was still a lot we could do without having to go anywhere. The beach was great for small children and adults alike. Nice shallow swimming area and lake is amazing. House was well stocked, and the giant bowl of snacks, though unnecessary, got used by everyone and added a very nice touch to our stay. Beds were very comfortable and everyone expressed how well they slept. We used a lot of wood during the week to stay warm on the very chilly evenings, but Nick had no issue bringing more over to us. Overall, a great week and definitely would be our first choice to stay there again if we come back to this area.

We have stayed in many VRBO lake homes. This is the most fabulous home. We never had one we felt like returning to, but this one is that place. Very well decorated, well appointed home. Beds were wonderful, plenty of extra bedding, pillows, kitchen lacked nothing, bathrooms were well stocked. We loved the guest baskets in bathrooms, the kitchen snack basket was great. Best swimming lake ever, shallow, clear, you will need water shoes, Michigan lakes are rocky. Wood for the fire, indoor toys and games, a tv for everyone, loved that it had three full baths and a half bath! All in all we loved it. The only things we felt it needed: A boat of some kind, like kayaks or small row boat to get into the deep water for fishing, a book letting us know how to operate the porch awning and attic fan along with check out instructions (so we dont have to bother the host) and kleenex...a request of our 6-year old! :) Be sure to eat at the 211 Bar and Grill, it is fantastic! We had a wonderful time!

Great place to gather with toys
Great place with lots of room, with all the necessary supplies for 12 people. Plenty of TP, garbage bags, towels, and even snacks. We used the paddle boards and and paddle boat and even fished and caught a few perch. We enjoyed each room had their own AC unit to customize the sleeping temps. Host was very responsive and one neighbor was very friendly. To top it off, dog friendly!!! The sun sets were amazing too

Fishing trip gone well!
I think Nick thought of everything when preparing a home for guests. He's included all from docking to parking, a very well equipped kitchen, to comfortable bedding, plenty of seating for gathering indoors and out, firepits and covered patios. Our fishing group really enjoyed the stay.

Paradise vacation
The host answered every question within 20 minutes. His house was fully furnished & equipped with more than I thought which made it so much easier for us. The amount of snacks that were provided by the host added inches to my waistline. Lol. The view & beach area were spectacular. We would definitely want to go there again. Next time it will be in the summer, so we can take advantage of going in the lake. Thanks Nick!

Trip to black lake
Our experience was nothing short of exceptional, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to have stayed in such a fantastic location. The beauty of the surroundings was great, and being so close to Ocqueoc Falls added an extra layer of magic to our vacation. We will certainly cherish the time we spent at your property and hope to return in the future.

If you had 10 stars for this stay , we would rate it an 11!
We have been renting through VRBO for a long time. Never once have I walked into a cleaner, more accommodating location than this cabin. The owner leaves you with everything you could possibly need or want. If it's not there just drop him a quick line and it's taken care of immediately. Basically all you need to do is pack your clothes. We really appreciated the welcome baskets as well as all the toys you left for the kids to play with on your beach. This was a wonderful, relaxing vacation for our family which was very much needed. The beach is perfect for little kids as the water is very shallow, and the sunset every night was spectacular. Thank you very much for sharing your cabin with us!

Family Memories
We stay for one week. All the pictures that we listed were just as they were. We had your two sons and their wives and 4 grandkids and had plenty of room for everyone. We loved how stocked everything was. We especially loved the lake out back and how shallow it was for our little ones who loved being in the water. The snack basket was a hit for us all! Nick was a great host who answered all our questions very quickly. We would highly recommend this place for a family getaway!

Great Family Reunion
We rented this house for a long overdue family reunion with my wife's siblings and significant others. We had plenty of room and loved the location on Black Lake. Some had not ever been to Michigan, the location is great for an hour or less travel to Northern Michigan sites. We were greeted with a welcome basket with goodies from the owner Nick. He was very responsive to questions and checked in via emails with us during the stay to ensure we had all we needed. Definitely a top recommendation for those looking for a secluded spot in the beautiful Up North!

Amazing Stay!
Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! Nick sent us everything we needed for an easy check in. Walked in to a clean house stocked with everything! The snack basket was a HUGE hit with 4 kids. The house was much larger than we expected. Everyone had their own space and no one ever felt like they were on top of each other. 10/10 recommend staying here! Thank you Nick for everything!!

Top Notch
I can’t say enough good things about the property and the experience. Just a great place in a great location. A few yards away from the shoreline with enough rooms and space inside to be all together in one spot or to spread out when you need to. Great amenities (super towels!) and a couple of immense bowls of treats that we probably enjoyed way too much! Will definitely stay here again. Thanks, Nick for the hospitality and making the process an easy one.

A must stay!
This property was such a great rate that I thought we were going to get scammed! What a relief it was that Nick was responsive from the start up until we left. This place was awesome! The layout upstairs is super cool and outer adult children and their friends loved it. It was super easy to get in~ Nick sent a code. I was not expecting the house to be as perfect as it was... a bowl of goodies (which I meant to replace-sorry!) The table decorated for the holiday, the heater stove in the living room, the bathrooms all had soap and shampoo and extra items if you forgot something. We relaxed and relaxed. Took advantage of the grill for some steaks and the firepit. The elderly couple next door is super sweet and talked to my husband for a bit. Stay here... just once.. you will leave relaxed and happy. Thank you Nick!
