This house was perfect for our purposes. It was in a quiet location right on the lake. We chose to eat out (very close to lots of good places) but you could easily fix meals in the well-appointed kitchen. Bed was super comfy and the house was very clean. Communication with the owner was outstanding. Couldn’t have asked for more. Great house for a family who would want to make a trip to Cedar Pointe but get away from the traffic and crowds at the end of the day. ##### Carrie G.

Amazing host We booked this property when we were coming to visit our son in college for Easter. The property completely blew us away and the owners were amazingWe had issues with my credit card and they were unbelievably patientThe house was beautiful and really is right on the lake. The morning and evening views are outstanding We use VRBOs a lot and this was the easiest check out process ever Finally, I am a very big guy. The bed is fine for a big guy. Both bathrooms work for those of us that are horizontally challenged although the upstairs one is roomier. The furniture is completely comfortable. I never worried if ai was going to break anything.

We were looking for a place where the men in our family could easily launch their boat & go fishing & the women could relax with a great view & read a book. We accomplished all of these wants at this home. The home was very comfortable & we had a great time. Being able to walk to the mariner was great as well as good expertise for us & our pup. The other nice thing was the fenced in yard. We also indulged in some nice restaurants. Thanks Rick ( who was easy to communicate with) for making our week really fun & great.
