The lake view is awesome. Our weather was unseasonably warm. Was able to swim in October. The place is great. Clean and updated. Bathroom even has a heated floor. Next time I would bring my boat. Property manager called to make sure everything is ok too.

Beautiful location

Beautiful quiet location. We can get here without traveling through the bustle of Traverse City. Property was clean and newly remodeled. We booked the property with the hopes of using the kayaks and doing some fishing on the lake however there was only one paddle remaining. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes and accessories.
