"Had a great stay. Thanks! Your place worked out well for us this year, but think we’ll need a 4 or 5 bedroom place next year."

"What a perfect spot for a family to land. Out away from the crazy of the city, very quiet and comfortable. A very nice retreat. Loved the patio with the fire pit and hot tub. We all wished we could’ve stayed longer!! "

"Gorgeous, clean, exactly as pictured. "

"Nice sized house for a big family (we had 2 adults, 5 teens and a toddler and fit well). The house had older amenities (bathroom, kitchen, furniture, carpet, grill) but that was fine with us (and in some was preferred so we didn’t have to worry about being overly tidy). It was surely whimsical and layout was unique. The price seemed steep but then again we had a hard time finding anything big enough for us near torch lake, so maybe price was correctly aligned to the market). The backyard is peaceful and beautiful and we appreciated that there were canoes, life jackets, and a fire pit. Our college aged sons were looking forward to fishing but had zero luck on Skegmog (perhaps bad timing or not the right equipment). Loved being close to Torch Lake (we rented pontoons on two separate days - it’s quite a long boat ride from the house to Torch so unless doing a multi day rental you are best off renting a boat launching on Torch). The house has billiards, Pac-Man, and several other fun games which were great to have on rainy days and in the evenings after a long day outside. Kitchen was well equipped (small dishwasher, so hand washed most). We would definitely come back! "

"Everything was exceptionally clean. There were plenty of dishes, utensils, towels and blankets. We enjoyed the beach and fishing. It was a very relaxing week. "

"Very nice place for a large group. Our grandkids really liked the trails. Very nice location and was very relaxing. The host was always very quick to respond and very helpful if we had questions. We really enjoyed our stay!"

"Very comfortable and clean home. Great location for many areas of the grand traverse locale."
