Plenty of space for two families. The game room came in handy on the rainy days. The outside areas needed attention (grill, yard, fire pit). That was the only downside. Walking distance into Bellaire, and short drives to many MI destinations. Would definitely book for large group again. ##### Mathew H.

We all stayed entertained in the basement playing pool and Foosball and of course, playing euchre. The rental is very spacious and open which was nice for our group. It only took about 13 minutes to get to Schuss Mountian which was why we came. I reached out to Mike a few times and he responded quickly everytime. We would absolutely stay here again! ##### Lindsey F.

Walking distance to downtown. Lots to do on the property! My only complaints is that trash from, I'm assuming the prior guests, was left in the garage which had a strong odor that went into the house whenever the garage door was opened. Also, the refrigerator was not keeping any items cold, causing us to throw away a lot of food. ##### Paige E. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Gary B. 13 Apr 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### 1970’s quad level in Bellaire House had adequate room for 8 adults. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils. Exterior and yard is in need of general maintenance. Interior needs some updating other than paint. For a home listed as room for 17, only two showers is inadequate. Property manager is extremely poor. Upon arrival, I phoned the contact person provided with a question about the entry code and my voice message was never replied to. ##### Gary B.

We had a decent size group and were able to easily walk to downtown (breweries etc) and the pontoon rental location was less than a block away. Very close to some great golf courses as well. ##### Rich G.

Nice to have Kayaks and life jackets. Great location. ##### suzie t.

Beautiful property, great communication with manager. The home was clean and well stocked . We have a large family and sometimes have difficulty finding a space that will accommodate us, this was perfect. We will definitely visit again . ##### Kala E.
