We absolutely loved our stay during Christmas! My husband is from here and we had family over in a neighboring lake. It was pristine, clean, modern, and had all the finishes just as pictured! The kids especially loved the kids book nook. We loved the lovely fireplace that has the option for just ambient lighting which makes it safe for little ones. Thank you for making it scent free. I am very sensitive to fragrances, and you couldn’t smell a thing! Some Airbnb’s flood the house with glade plug ins. It’s a good hypoallergenic place! The frozen lake was so beautiful! Thank you for the wonderful accommodations and even thinking of the small stuff like bandaids, thermometers, and makeup removers!

It’s wonderful to know the kids enjoyed the book nook and that the fireplace’s ambient lighting option added both coziness and peace of mind. We’re especially glad the scent-free approach made your stay comfortable—your feedback truly validates the care we put into those details. Hearing that the little extras were appreciated means a lot to us. And yes, the frozen lake really is magical in the winter! We’d love to welcome you and your family back anytime. -Jessica FVR

Some of the best memories were being able to spend time with a great group of girls playing cards, bonfire and just hanging out. Beautifully well organized home. The views are amazing, all the conveniences you could want and then some!!

The home is well appointed, but our recommendation is to label the shampoo, etc, add a few wine glasses and a non-stick pan. We rented for the MI Cross-Country State Finals so a comfortable bed for our renners was important, both boys weren't disappointed and got a great night's rest. One of our boys came out All-State! Thank you for a great stay!
