This place is a 10 out of 10! We were so comfortable, it was exactly as described and super clean! Everything we needed we had, even an electric tea kettle which I used multiple times for tea during our stay:) Brenda was a wonderful host who is super responsive. The home is beautifully decorated, we felt right at home. If you’re on the fence, BOOK IT!! You won’t be sorry! We will definitely be back!

This was our second stay at one of Brenda’s properties. The house was clean, comfortable, cozy and pet friendly. We appreciate the comfy beds and pillows! The labels are also very helpful to let you know where to find all the essentials. I don’t worry about anything when staying with this host.

This house and renting from brenda are my new 5 star standard. I am blown away by all of the little details. If youre thinking of renting this place, just do it. My dog, kid and the adults loved the backyard. The layout of the house is brilliant. There’s something for everyone, without feeling like youre on top of each other. Brenda has helpful notes around the house to help with your stay. We commented multiple times that the notes were all very friendly and useful, instead of coming across as a list of not to do’s in the house. This was a new area of Michigan for us. It’s super dog friendly and honestly one of my new favorite areas in Michigan. We had a sudden death in the family and had to book a place last minute. This house was so comfortable to our family after a day of visitation and the next day funeral stuff. It felt like being at home. I will definitely be back.

If you are looking for something within walking distance or a short drive to the lake we highly suggest this house. Be sure to check out the local ice cream shops, the deck at the lake, as well as the biggest farmers market we have ever been to. The fact we were very close to the lake and able to see all the local lighthouses was an enjoyment as well. We had six of us girls staying and has lots of room. The house is immaculate, we loved the seasonal decor, the ability to have a bonfire and grill out. Also, the privacy while being in a neighborhood. We loved having a table big enough for all of us to sit around to eat and also do our huge weekend puzzle. We all have dogs and loved that this house allowed dogs even though none of us brought ours. We all would stay in one of her houses again and love the nostalgic things that was in this older yet modernized home. Also, Brenda sends you a list of local places to check out before your arrival and is a very responsive host.

Brenda’s place was one of the most thoughtfully put together and well stocked vacation rentals I can recall. Very clean and comfy. It made for a wonderful getaway with my family.

We had an absolute fantastic stay at Brenda’s lake view home. The place was perfect for our family of 4 and pup. Lots of room , clean and the yard … just WOW. Our dog was literally smiling playing in the water and yard. This Airbnb is one of the best we have stayed in. You can tell they have not cut corners and everything is of a high quality. If you’re thinking of booking, do it! We will definitely be back next year!
