Beautiful UP vacation
This home is EXACTLY as described and the property owner is available with any questions you may have, at any time. The property is situated just right to get to the most popular attractions in the eastern UP! We took in Whitefish Point, Grand Marias, Paradise, Upper & Lower Tahquamenon Falls... and still had time to just relax and enjoy the amazing, beautiful home and lake! We will definitely be back!

The moment we pulled up, we knew we found our perfect place. The home is very well maintained, smelled great, very clean and stunning views. Chris was so amazing. Any questions we had about the home or the area, he was very quick to respond - extremely kind and helpful. We can't wait to book again and bring our families this time - but we'll still have this as our annual girls' trip home away from home! Thank you so much, Chris. You went above & beyond to make sure we felt welcomed and that our trip was perfect!

Fall Getaway
We were looking for a quick getaway for a few nights before it started to get too cold. This property was perfect and provided all of the comforts of home along with a beautiful lake. This area is near many of the UP attractions so there is plenty to do or you can just hang out at the house. It was very well cared for and as described in the listing and the host was available and helpful during our stay. Would definitely return to this house.

Round Lake Gem!!!
We loved the open floor plan, it was great for families to eat and hang out. Loved the LargeTable/Bar for meals. The Kitchen is well-appointed and stocked with necessities for cooking at home.
The home has a great “UP Cabin Vibe”. Absolutely loved the wall of windows facing the lake. The home is nestled on a quiet area of lake.
Christmas lights in the tree are a big help when returning from evening boat ride. Star Link Wi-Fi was fast and reliable. Nice lush lawn and sandy beach area was great for resting in the sun. Nice Propane Grill for grilling. Water is delicious from tap and brought me back to childhood memories, it was the taste of home. Separate Showers and baths are nice. Glad to have towels and linens provided!!!! I would definitely stay again.

UP fun
Clean and comfortable home on the lake! It was peaceful and seemed remote but was about an hour away from many popular UP destinations. My family especially loved Picture Rocks and all the nearby lighthouses. After sightseeing, kayaks on the lake and s’mores around the fire pit were perfect. Chris is a great host and you won’t regret booking his retreat.

UP Vacation
What a fantastic place to stay ! Chris was always available via text or phone promptly answering our questions before and during our stay. Our group has been coming to the UP to snowmobile for over 30 years and this was by far the nicest place we've ever stayed. Beautiful & well kept, the kitchen, Island & living room overlooking the lake and the 2 spacious full baths were perfect for a large group. I highly recommend staying here. I can only imagine a summer stay must be even better. Thanks Chris
