Beautiful house with multiple seating areas, and stocked with all your needs. Very modern kitchen and lower bath. Has large deck with large adjacent patio with plenty of seating. Used one of the several kayaks and board. Had 2 fires in the pit by the lake. Wonderful all around stay. One thing to note; the yard slopes down to the water so if you have walking issues you might stay on the deck/patio. I’m 78 and had no problems walking the incline multiple times a day. Would definitely stay again.

A Slice of Heaven
We are so happy we found this home. Normally we book a year out for our summer vacation trip but we dropped the ball and didn’t book one until March of this year. Most of the nice huge homes were booked and then we found this gem. It’s large, (so many spaces to find our own nook to read, or just enjoy the view). We didn’t feel like we were on top of each other and the lake was so warm and clean. We would recommend this property, especially if you’re looking to stay with friends and family. The large dining room table and multiple living rooms and outdoor space was perfect.

Beautiful property and views
We had a group of women stay for a 50th birthday retreat weekend. This was exactly what we needed. Beach area by lake was a nice touch. Kitchen is fully stocked with most items you’d need to cook/grill. We felt right at home, and communication with homeowners is top notch. Fireworks in Sturgis was fantastic to watch on the deck. Would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful and peaceful!!
Our family had a wonderful time at the lakehouse! It is a quad level home and the layout of the house flows nicely. All the bedrooms had comfortable queen beds and closets for hanging up clothes. The 3 bedrooms upstairs shared a nice sized bathroom (no tub). The single bedroom on the lower level offered a little more privacy and had a jet tub! The kitchen was well stocked with seasonings, sauces, paper supplies...all the basics! The microwave was really cool, and there is an ice maker (just make sure you turn it on when you arrive). The frosty mugs were very nice to have as there is lots of sunshine! My husband and our kids enjoyed walking to the dock to fish and also taking the kayaks out. The garage offers lots and lots of water supplies- kayaks, paddles, tubes, life jackets, water toys...the only thing we didn't find was goggles. The water was very clear and had tons of lily pads! The hot tub was most enjoyable, and we spent a good amount of time just hanging out on the deck, soaking up the sun. The sunroom was probably my favorite place to have coffee and relax and my son's favorite place to nap! Absolutely beautiful home, and our favorite vacation place by far! A great place to relax and hang out. Our family truly enjoyed our time together at the lakehouse, and we would love to go back next summer!

Nice stay on the lake
Property is as advertised. Home is very nice, clean, and spacious. The kitchen and the lower bathroom have been recently remodeled and the rest of the house is well maintained. Home has 4 bedrooms and they are good size. Beds are comfortable. House is fully stocked with everything. Sunroom is a nice bonus and great extra room. View of the lake is very nice from the main level of the house and sunroom. Hot tub adds to the house for sure and is a nice option. The house is a quad level, so its convenient to get from the main level to either the lower level (where sunroom, 1 bedroom, and 2nd living room are) and upper level (3 bedrooms).
The only cons to the property are:
1) the lack of swimming area- there is a beach on the shore, but the water in front of that and by the dock is complete muck, as in you sink down a foot into the muck. There is a public boat launch 2 houses down and around the corner that has a better swimming area and we made that work, but it's not "private" or ideal. This tends to attract some questionable locals in the swimming area
2) The backyard has a very steep decline/hill going down to the water (not shown in pics). It wasn't bad for us (I'm in my 40's and we had younger kids) but when my dad came for a few days (in his 70's) it was a little rough for him getting up the hill. Just something to consider if you have handicap/elderly that want to go down by the water, kayak, etc
Overall a great property though
