We have rented for years and this house is like being at home. I reported an issue with the outside lights being broke due to a storm and it was fixed within days. Some of the cabinets are in a disarray but that's expected when you have renters in weekly. We love the lake and the location. We rented on 2021, 2022 and have our reservation for 2023.

We had everything we needed at this lakeside getaway. The host was very attentive and all the comforts of home present. We enjoyed the fall colors while hiking at Lake Marl and on our day trips to Sault St Marie and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Discovered the Little Boots restaurant and would drive back from Virginia to eat there again...great home cooking and lovely staff.

House was GREAT! We loved the location and the lake is sandy and shallow. The screened in porch was perfect for relaxing with no bugs.
