We had a great time staying here for the Barry Roubaix :) Not too far from Hastings. Best accommodation we had. It was a pleasure staying here, as it was catered to please the guest, and made you feel welcome and at home. It was well stocked and had extra goodies. The personal touches in each room with robes, slippers, and bottled water was very nice. The house was very clean and beautiful and everything was set up for the guest’s needs and comfort. Very spacious for guests of 10. Rob responds right away for any questions and concerns. Looking forward to come back here again. Rob, thank you for your awesome place.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The house and all the amenities were exactly as listed, and Rob made it so easy to just show up and have a good time. Despite the colder weather, we were able to make good use of the large patio, fire pit, and golf cart (which was so handy for my physically limited FIL who wanted to go fishing). The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The bathrooms and bedrooms were also very clean and there were plenty of linens for our family of 6. We also appreciated the useful little extras like travel-sized toiletries and the fun bonuses like the oversized Jenga set.

Everything we needed was in the house. We had no problem cooking for 8 people. We used the kayaks and life jackets. The 3 year old was beyond belief when he say the fire flys because he had only read about them in books. We had less than a 20 minute drive to visit the rest of the family who was camped out at Custer State Park. Definitely will visit again.

Perfect Family Get together

We get a place every year to get together with our adult kids. This place was fantastic. Easy check in process which we all appreciated since we arrived at different times. We cooked most of our meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. The lakes were perfect for boating and swimming. The host was easy to reach and very accommodating. We would highly recommend this property.

Fun filled family weekend

This was a wonderful home for the family to meetup at and spend a long weekend together.  The spacious backyard, fire pit, and large dining table for playing games provided more than enough room for family activities.  The best offering was the rentable pontoon boat where we could spend the day at will on Bristol Lake cruising, swimming, and tubing. The kids had a blast.  Rob was a great host, easy to communicate with, and made sure we had everything we needed as well as gave us a short tour of the lake to make sure we were familiar with everything.  The home was clean and comfortable, the area quiet and relaxing, and the lake was refreshing and serene.

Great stay

Great place, great host, laid back atmosphere, enough seating for all, even come welcome snacks (which was great because some of us forgot to eat lunch before arriving). We had a family wedding in the area and 10 adults stayed here for two night. It was perfect. It had everything we needed, no need to run out and enough seating we could all be together in the main area. We the weather was warmer so we could have enjoyed the huge gathering area on the deck and the lake. We would rent again.

National gymnastics competition in Battle Creek

The property was really ideal for our stay. We had 3 teen gymnasts and 4 parents total. Plenty of outdoor areas to explore, and a sweet bakery about a mile down the road. It was close enough to Battle Creek to be able to commute everyday for the competition. Rob is super helpful and quick to respond. The kitchen had plenty of amenities to be able to cook meals, there were plenty of bathroom supplies and cleaning supplies for anything we might need. This would be a perfect spot in warm weather for kayaking and fishing.
