Early Check-in / Late Check-out Requests are not possible.
We recognize that our guests often want to request early arrival or later check-outs. While we really try to say yes to our guest requests, this is the one request that we cannot accommodate.

We strive to have our homes in perfect order for your arrival and that is a monumental task for our cleaning & maintenance crews to attain in the amount of time allotted. Having guests arrive earlier or stay later adds additional pressure to an already tight timeline.

We appreciate your understanding and suggest that if you would like time as the contracting Guest to do your own preparations, that you ask your guests to arrive at a time later than 4pm.

We also have a list of suggestions for things to do if you need to occupy your group until the 4pm or later check-in time.

The property itself was amazing, excellent amenities and communication with owner. The only downside is it’s not that conveniently located near Traverse city and trying to coordinate Lyft and Uber was difficult, but to no fault of owner.

Perfect Getaway!
Everyone who stayed absolutely loved it! The pool was a huge hit. It was surprisingly warm, considering it was only mid June in northern Michigan. So many things for the kids to do inside and outside! The huge gathering space off of the kitchen was perfect. Plenty of fridge space for all of the food and drinks, and all of the beds were very comfortable.

A perfect spot for up north getaway!
We had a 11 person group stay here for a trip up north to go skiing at Crystal and celebrate my 30th bday. We enjoyed every inch of the property and wished we could’ve stayed longer! It would be a great property to enjoy in the summer for the pool. The LA lodge had everything we needed. They even shipped me some personal belongings I accidentally left behind. Thanks LA lodge!

Perfect place to celebrate with a big group!
5 families stayed for the weekend to celebrate a birthday. 10 adults and 12 kids fit great with room to spare. Plenty to do to keep everyone entertained, space for everyone to spread out or hang out to stay together. we loved the huge eating space, hot tub, sauna, cold plunge, fire pit, games and game rooms! Beds were all comfortable, house was cozy and inviting. Would highly recommend for groups that just want to hang out together and enjoy what the house has to offer!

Wonderful for our Book Club!
Me and a group of girls came up for a book club retreat and we absolutely loved this property! We hosted our group in the large dining room and had plenty of beds to choose from! The hot tub & sauna were a HUGE plus that we really enjoyed using! The leg massagers were also an added plus! The hosts were quick to respond with questions and recommendations of the area. They had all the tvs set with moody fireplaces, a sweet welcome note, & a little welcome basket of candy & snacks for us! I highly recommend booking this beautiful home & we hope to come back in the future!

Haley’s last Disco
My Daughter celebrated her bachelorette party at the LA Lodge. The house was absolutely perfect. It’s just as described. It was able to accommodate 17 of us. We had a mixture of 30+ and 50+ ladies. The house had everything you needed. It’s only about 25 minutes outside of Traverse City. We were able to use Uber and we used the funky bus tours and they took us around to several wineries. Dan and Shawne were awesome hosts. They checked with me to make sure there were enough towels for everyone and also checked in after the first night to make sure we were good and didn’t need anything. I reached out because we needed wood for the solo stove and Dan responded promptly and had it brought to the house within 15 mins. If we ever come back with a big group to the area we will definitely stay at the LA Lodge.

Perfect setup if you have a large extended family that has a wide range of age groups! Something for everyone from games for the youngsters to relaxation spots for the older family members, the Lake Ann Lodge has it all. Super clean, super easy to communicate with the hosts, and loaded with everything you need to avoid having to drag so many things up with you.

Great place for a large group!
We stayed here with 6 other couples for a fun weekend in Traverse City. This house is huge! It really just keeps going and going. There are so many common spaces to hang out as a group and the owners have thought of everything to make sure their renters have fun (game room, arcade machines, bar, hot tub, etc - there's something wrong with you if you can't have fun in a place like this)!! There's also plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms that even with 14 people you never felt crowded or like you didn't have personal space. The owners were excellent and very attentive as well. Great place to stay!

The Perfect House for Our Family Vacation
We had a wonderful time on our family vacation at Lake Ann Lodge. The house was just as advertised with lots of room. The beds were comfortable and the play areas for all ages, were great. We especially loved the huge dining area where all of us could sit together for meals and enjoy much laughter and each others company. Though the house was near other homes, it was quiet and seemed secluded due to trees all around. We would definately recommend this lodge for other families to enjoy.
