Trolling Wolf Lake

The house was as advertised. Clean, roomy, great views, nice deck, and nice gazebo. Owner had a canoe and kayaks on site, as well as a rentable pontoon. All of this made our family vacation much better than anticipated. Adults and kids enjoyed themselves immensely. Would definitely do it again.

Lake house at Wolf lake

Had a wonderful time. Lake bottom was great for swimming. Lake was not super busy. House lacked a few amenities but did not hinder our visit.

This beautiful lake house includes lots of great amenities that you will only discover if you make the effort to ask host Ted! Don’t hesitate to engage in a conversation about how to maximize your enjoyment while in Grass Lake! Inside the detached garage are 3 kayaks and lots of floaties that we never would have found if we hadn’t talked to Ted. And our favorite attraction in the area was most definitely the Arboretum, hiking trails and incredible Sky Walk at Hidden Lake Gardens.

Beautiful house on the lake

We brought a group of old friends together for a long weekend on the lake. We were able to spread out and relax, take walks on nearby trails, cook large meals together, and sit around the fire in the evening. Great place to get away:

Perfect for our group event!

The house was perfect for our NYE family/friends celebration! The open floor plan and lake views were great! And the owner was very hospitable. The accommodations and number of bathrooms were just right! Aside from a few summer cobwebs :) and finding the driveway, this place was great!

The house was very nice and comfortable. The only downside was the water pressure was extremely poor so had to stager dishwashing and showers throughout the day. Did not do any laundry so don’t know how that would work. Parking was a bit tight but we made it work. Could use some instructions as to how the TV worked. Never got it working (not even the grandkids) but really didn’t need it. The outside property was very accommodating and the lake was great for boating and fishing. Could have used a few chairs on the balcony but the gazebo worked out great. I feel that the owner would have been very accommodating if we had the need to contact him. The Klimas Family

Thumbs up!!!

Wonderful 4 days with family! Celebrated my FIL's 90th birthday with my husbands 2 brothers and wives. Plenty of room for all 8 of us. And having a 1st floor bedroom/bathroom was perfect for inlaws. Home was very clean and comfortable. So close to the water and beautiful view anytime of day. Loved sitting in the gazebo and watching the stunning sunsets. Rented a pontoon from Butterfields and enjoyed having itvdocked right at our back door. Already talking about coming back next year!

Beautiful home on quaint lake

The home is beautifully decorated on a quiet lake in Michigan. It easily accommodated two families with 5 young kids. Easy access to Ann Arbor and other surrounding small towns. The owner was friendly and great to work with. Responded to our requests quickly and came out to the house promptly when the water pump stopped working. When we booked the house it was not clear that the house had no air conditioning and we weren't informed of this until a day before our arrival. Would recommend including this in the description and including tower fans on the first floor. May not be the best location for small kids if walking and a play ground are a necessity. Overall we had a nice stay.

Great long weekend getaway with friends

This house was really lovely and much larger inside than the photos give credit for and made for an awesome long weekend away from the city. A couple of notes (not necessarily complaints) on the property: - the lawn is very small and sloped, so it's not really a great space for lawn games, etc. as the water is very close - there were only 1-2 very old and mostly busted lawn chairs aside from the small old wooden ones shown. recommend bringing your own stadium chairs, etc. - the master bedroom never really cools down. we had the a/c blasting, fans, blinds closed, everything, and it just couldn't keep up with the sun. the rest of the house did cool down nicely, though - definitely keep the curtains in the living room closed all day. - the gas grill and charcoal grill are very small. It was fine for our group of 5, but a large group would take a while or need to use both - bring your own condiments; we usually expect there to be some leftover from other guests but the kitchen was empty aside from a few spices - pots/pans/etc. are scarce and a bit dated as some others mentioned - there is a neighbor directly to your left so the property isn't entirely private - the sand bar in the lake is awesome and hopping. we stopped every day and anchored off and hung out. It ranges from 2-4 feet deep in places and is mostly a very pleasant sandy bottom - firewood is not provided - there are extra towels in the cupboard in the master, however they're all white and old and not formal beach towels just to be aware - renting from Butterfield's Landing is not an awesome process. they take cash only, don't document things properly (or at all - you won't get any confirmation and they don't do anything online), and change up when they're available at their own discretion. we were told we could drop off first thing Sunday and not be charged, only for him to tell me that he wouldn't be there until 1 on Sunday, so I had to pay for a half-day. Not what I was told when I rented but not a humongous deal. Just be sure you put things in explicit, clear writing with them.
