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.

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.
We had an awesome trip. The snow made the view just like a winter wonderland!!

The home was in excellent shape and it served the needs of our party of 10. Beds, linens and towels were all excellent quality. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and serving ware. We would rent this home again.
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

This home was everything we could have wanted and more! It’s perfectly designed to comfortably hold a group of 10 with many different areas to enjoy. We picked this house to celebrate a special occasion over a long weekend and are now planning to make it an annual stay! We’ll most definitely be back!!!
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

The pictures and description of this home couldn't have been more on target. Clean, great layout out and well located to Fresh Coast Market and Moomer's ice cream shop!The dock was perfect for tying up our rental pontoon and the kayaks and paddle board were used by all with great enjoyment.And the management from Northern Michigan Escapes did a great job meeting us at the home and explaining all the amenities.
