The house is very comfortable and the 7 bedrooms make it perfect for large families like ours. The owners (Gerry and Liz) go the extra mile providing tons of extras - kayaks, paddle board, beach towels, corn hole boards, 3 hole putting green and many other fun things. I strongly suggest renting their 27 ft pontoon boat. Fantastic time cruising in the evening or skiing/tubing during the day. Gerry’s communication and actions solving issues is unmatched.

The house was the perfect home base for a large group of people with the high number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and places to gather. A nice surprise was how close it was to restaurants and grocery stores serving the Sister Lakes. No complaints, only positive things to say! ##### Joshua B.

The house had a couple of kayaks for us to use, which was a lot of fun for the family. The house was clean and as per the description.

We recently spent a week at the house for a family vacation. The house was perfect and very roomy to accommodate a large family. The three tiered patio provided plenty of room and options for outdoor entertainment, and the beach and lake took care of the rest.

Aug 15, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious, well-designed home that easily accommodated 16 This is an incredibly well-designed home. There were 16 of us ranging in age from 13 to 80. Everyone had plenty of space, there was never competition for bathrooms, and we could be together without it feeling crowded. The deck is perfect, with seating for 8 overlooking the lake, with another deck one floor down with rocking chairs where family members enjoyed reading and chatting. The appliances were top notch, and they had 2 sets of washers/dryers, so it was easy for everyone to do laundry as they wished. Lake is lovely, and the house is perfectly situated to enjoy every part of the day including terrific sunsets. Plenty of towels, bedding, etc. They have a kayak, a stand up paddle board, corn hole, etc -- plenty to do and a beautiful environment to do it. The owners were incredibly helpful before and during the trip. They were responsive to any questions over text and gave clear directions & instructions. We had a great time and were very happy with these accommodations. We have no regrets about renting this property. In the interest of a balanced review, just two small downsides. Unlike other short term rentals we have stayed in, this is a family home, not an investment property. That has pros, like great appliances and everything you'd need right to hand. But it also has cons -- we were coming from 6 different households and no one knew who was bringing what (food, beverages etc.). That would have been fine if the fridges and pantry had been empty, but they weren't. They had cleared off plenty of space for us -- it wasn't a space issue. And if we had all been coming from the same household (and therefore knew which foods/drinks/brands we use) this would not have been an issue. It just became a complication because of our particular group. For example, I had to cover up their side of the pantry with boxes so that people knew they could only take snacks from the right side, not the left side. For the record the owners said it was fine to use their stuff as long as we replaced it, but we would have had no way to know what was consumed (and therefore what needed to be replaced). The tap water smells. The owners provided plenty of drinking water and even had a neat dispenser which provided cool or warm drinking water. ##### Jane G.

Our group visited over Labor Day Weekend with extended family ranging from grandparents down to infants. Everyone was impressed with this property. The home was spacious, clean and well stocked with everything we needed for a great weekend. The lake/beachfront were shallow, clean and sandy - perfect for the younger children in our group. The boat and tubes provided hours of fun for the older kids and adults. We also loved using the putting green and fire pit. Round Lake is great - the sand bar is directly in front of the home, and we went to Driftwood for ice cream and coffee. The hosts were friendly, generous and great communicators. The neighbors on both sides were also very friendly and helpful. Hope to visit again in the future. Highly recommend! ##### Madilyn E. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Betsy S.

The house is gorgeous with great indoor and outdoor spaces- kitchen was perfect to host our big family communal dinners; the beach and swimming area is perfect- nice sandy bottom and gradual depth for the kids! Having 5 bathrooms was fantastic. 3+ fridges and a bar area allowed room for food and beverages for all. Gerry and Liz also provided kayaks, a swim raft, floats, a great speaker to use outside, etc! And we walked to dinner and ice cream multiple nights! Can’t wait to come back next year! ##### Susan C. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fritz H.

Tons of room, 3 levels, not counting the 3 levels outside beachside. Beautiful clear lake with a nice sandy beach. House is immaculate, with plenty of amenities at your disposal. Bar downstairs is super cool, with a big ice maker and a wine cooler. Main floor kitchen level has a huge island with another ice maker and a food warmer! If you’re looking to take a large group somewhere for a trip, this is the spot. Breweries, great eats and atmosphere at The Strand across the lake, and plenty of golf courses. I recommend Lake Michigan Hills Golf Club, but don’t try and sneak a 5 some in they’ll get ya 😬 Also the owners were very friendly and only a text away with any kind of issues we might have had, but had zero issues and zero complaints. Will definitely be going back! ##### Austin H. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Teri A.

From communicating to the owners, to the check in, to our awesome time there . . . this was a 5 star stay! The owner went out of their way to accommodate us. They installed a handheld shower head to help us out, gave us some great suggestions on places to eat and met our every need! The location on the lake is amazing. The kids had a great time playing in the lake and running around on the beach. The adults had plenty of space for our sleeping/bath needs and great kitchen and living area for our large group. The home was very clean and we had plenty of parking space. If we head up that way again, we will definitely stay at this lovely home. ##### Teri A.

It was the perfect house, described perfectly and in a beautiful location. I would highly recommend this house to anyone. The communication with the owners was fantastic. We couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate this special occasion. ##### Robert B. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra F.

Property was clean, spacious, warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms spacious and plenty of room for our crowd of 16 adults. Kitchen is spacious and well stocked. Made it easy to cook for a crowd. The outdoor space is fun and inviting and has plenty of space for relaxing with family and friends while enjoying the beautiful lake view. A reasonable distance getting to and from Notre Dame University in which we enjoyed attending sporting events. Property owner was great at checking in, easy to communicate with, flexible and readily available. An overall wonderful getaway for our family. Definitely look forward to staying here again. ##### Sandra F. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wendy V.

The house was perfect for all 22 people! We had 12 children (ages 3 months-12 years old) and 10 adults. The number of rooms and bathrooms was exactly what we needed. The beach was great for the children. Very clean and sandy just like they say. There was an abundance of towels for the beach and bathroom (not many wash cloths if you need those), silverware, outdoor seating, fridges, and cups/plates. The ice maker was great too! The only negative thing was the amount of stuff in the bedroom drawers, pantry and fridges. The host was very kind to offer anything we needed but there was so much stuff. With 5 families staying for a week, we brought a lot of our own stuff. That added a little extra work. We definitely made due and condensed things in the fridges but it was hard to lay out clothes so we just had to leave it in our suitcases. In past rentals, the host would lock their personal things in a closet or cabinet. It was just something we weren’t used to. That was minor compared to how perfect everything else was! We have been doing these trips for 5 years and this was our biggest group yet! This house absolutely checked off everything we needed and wanted. The kids were safe to play in the water solo while the parents relaxed on the beach!!! We have already discussed going back next year! ##### Dana S.

The lake house was in a beautiful location. We had 20 people celebrating my Mom’s 80th birthday. Can’t wait to visit again. We went to The Strand, Dockside Dan’s, BTs, casino, winery, golfing, trivia at Sister Lakes Brewing, and a boat day. Perfect place for viewing sunsets. Thank you for sharing your lake house. ##### Michelle F. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy S.

We spent one day in St Joe which was just beautiful! A few family members have allergies so some of the dog hair was a little bothersome for them, but other than that it was very nice! We spent each night around the fire table which was a great way to end each day! ##### Kathy S. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brett W.

My family of 20 (siblings, cousins, spouses, and children) all fit comfortably in this beautiful home for a Thanksgiving trip. The kitchen was well-equipped for our needs, and stores nearby provided everything else. Communication was very clear and thorough with the host, Jerry, throughout the entire process. We hope to visit again in the summer to partake in all the warm weather activities in the area! ##### Erica V.
