From the day we booked until the day we left there was great communication from the Host and the house was perfect for our group of Athletes who were attending a local sports camp. We will be back!
I have stayed at this location over a handful of times. This was another wonderful stay, and the weather was great so we were able to make sâmores. Hoping to be back this summer! Thanks Tom!
Our family stayed here for vacation over the 4th of July holiday. We really enjoyed the location and the waterfront, with a nice dock, paddleboat, and a shaded sun deck to lay out. There was a nice gas grill and awesome fire pit that we enjoyed. The kitchen was well stocked. The only disappointment was how dirty parts of the house were when we arrived (the main floor deck space table and chairs were filthy, the slider doors were dirty, the fridge shelves and microwave had dried food, and some of the walls had dirt and handprints). We donât expect a place to be spotless, but we also donât expect to have to clean anything when we arrive. Overall we had a good time, but would not consider this a 5 star place.
We really enjoyed our stay - the 2nd time staying at this house. Nicely furnished and lots of space for hanging out. We loved using the boats and enjoying being out on the water.
Thomas was a great host, was available for any questions we had. The house was well stocked. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the home to others.
Tom was super awesome and the place was great. Weâre definitely keeping this place in mind for future stays. We threw a Bach party here and Tom was so nice and understanding. The location is great, neighborhood is safe and the lake is amazing!
The property was very nice! It was clean and decorated cute. The yard was laid out nicely and we loved the covered deck by the water! We are thinking of coming back every year!
We have stayed here twice with a large group for ski trips. The location works well and the house is perfect. The owner is very responsive and he had the house warmed up with fireplaces going when we arrived.
Clean house. Safe neighborhood. Beautiful small all sports lake. Took our boat and tubed for 2 days and had the lake to ourselves. The littles loved the backyard and being able to swim in their private beach.
Tom was such a great host. The place was huge, great location, clean, well stocked. Our families had a blast. Thanks Tom. We really appreciated your hospitality.
Property was beautiful and house was more than large enough to accommodate our entire party. The lake was amazing and we had perfect weather. The host was very easy to work and communicate with. I even had two of my party look at potentially booking the same house in the future for family vacations with extended family because it was so nice.
This is our second year booking with Tom. He is one of the best hosts we've had. He is quick to make sure your stay is perfect & you have all that you need. This house & location is beyond beautiful and has everything you could need for a perfect weekend.
Property was just as described and ready for us! We made full use of the boats on the lake, the fire pit, and both kitchens! The proximity to downtown Cadillac also meant we were able to head in to town for dinner one night. We had a great time.
Met up with family members here again and enjoyed everything very much. Lower level was perfect for gathering, games, and watching football. Great location, beautiful area. We went skiing at Crystal Mountain and Caberfae during our stay. Bowling and Pines pizza before heading out of town. Helpful host with great communication.
This recent trip was my fourth time renting the property. It was wonderful as usual, and Tom is always extremely welcoming and helpful. The fireworks were amazing, and all 7 of us had a great time gathering around the fire pit as we watched the show. Looking forward to the next trip back.
The property was perfect for our one week family stay. The house itself is beautiful, spacious, and accommodating. We all enjoyed the large yard equipped with a lakefront gazebo and firepit. The young kids played endlessly on the sandy beachfront and enjoyed the warm lake water. Lake Barrie is a beautiful lake where we enjoyed riding the pedal boat and fishing. Tom was a super host and had answers to any questions and responded quickly to meet our needs. Couldn't ask for a nicer place to stay.
Everything was very nice. Plenty of cooking utensils in the two kitchens. Basement is great for groups. Plenty of linens and blankets. Air conditioning worked well. Overall would recommend. Also provided some firewood for fire pit, propane for grill.
This property was everything I had hoped for and then some. Tom was such an amazing host, and I was able to communicate with him throughout our stay and he helped me with some items I had forgotten from home. The home is gorgeous and very clean (probably the cleanest I've ever stayed in), and there was so much space! The lake is a little weedy in the cove, but absolutely great to get out on with a paddle boat or kayaks - very low traffic.
We had an amazing stay! And I know some of the people from our group are planning on bringing back their families.
My group was looking for a place large enough to hold us all for a weekend get-away. This property is perfect. It is very spacious, accommodating, and located right by the downtown Cadillac area, providing many options for food and things to do outside of the home. The house was fully stocked with things like towels, many blankets, and outdoor activities. The owner was so kind & friendly and helped with the check-in process. Weâve booked many different homes before but this was one of our favorites. Definitely a great choice & youâll have a blast!
The house is absolutely beautiful! Lots of space for everyone and well stocked and tastefully decorated. Lake was perfect for boating. Three different types of boats were provided along with life jackets. Kids loved boating and fishing!
Lake is warm but not as clean as we would have liked for swimming. We opted to swim at state beach nearby (about 6 miles away). House could use a bit of extra cleaning. Air vents and windows have not been cleaned in a while, but otherwise, the house is clean and very family friendly. We would book again.
