Clam Haven is a beautiful home inside and out to gather as a family to spend time together, enjoy nature and find a spot to slip away and spend time alone. The layout of the house was perfect for 8 adults and one baby. We will choose it again when coming to this slice of beauty in Michigan. Host is very responsive and hospitable. Thank you!
Met here with a group of adult friends and everyone loved the house and location. Private and scenic Clam Lake was a great hideaway from the business of Torch Lake, but it is a short boat ride to get to Torch or Bellaire. The use of the dock was wonderful and allowed a lot of flexibility throughout the day for different schedules and changing weather. We are highly likely to book again. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
Beautiful property on Clam Lake. Very quiet area. Great spot to dock/rent a boat and enjoy Clam Lake and Torch Lake. House is very spacious with very comfortable beds.
Our family really enjoyed our time at this house. Itâs very clean, has a great view of the lake, and feels very private. The check in process was seamless. This is a place I would definitely return to.
This location fit our family perfectly. It was in a great spot to be able to enjoy quiet Clam Lake or Torch Lake as well. Owners we very kind and easy to get ahold of for questions and concerns.
House is beautiful! Smooth process for renting out, and host receptive. Had everything we needed. Quiet area and so easy to rent a boat and have it docked! Beds were comfortable too!
Lots of room for big groups, including multiple families. Lots of space and privacy throughout. Great location if you don't mind a boat ride to get to some more swimming friendly shorelines.
This is a fantastic property with plenty of room both indoors and outdoors. Everything was very clean and comfortable. We rented a boat from Butchâs Marina and it was just a short drive from the property and easy access to Torch lake. Weâd definitely stay here again.
We had a great time at the property this year. Everything from making s'mores in the fire pit, to grilling and dining in the eat-in-kitchen or on the deck, and the fun times relaxing in the living room with the gorgeous views of the lake created lasting memories for the family. Shelly is responsive and very nice. The house is roomy and comfortable and we hope to return again!
We enjoyed our stay. Boated to torch one day and down grass river to lake bellaire another day. Caught perch and pike and had fun tubing. Loved campfire and star gazing. Played board games on our rainy night. House was great size for our group.
Thank you!!
We had the best time on our annual family summer vacation. The accommodations were perfect for our family with 4 teenagers. We did bring our pontoon and were able to enjoy both Lake Bellaire (35 min river ride) and the Torch Lake Sandbar (50 min ride). Cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Thank you!
Our family, six adults and five kids, all agreed that our vacation on Clam Lake was one of the best! The house worked out perfect for our yearly gathering. The home is well maintained and has plenty of room to relax after a day of boating and kayaking. The kids loved the pool table and made use of the fire pit every night. We all enjoyed sitting around the fire and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The older boys caught fish everyday and we're thrilled that they could fish off the dock. We highly recommend renting this home!
We loved our time in Michigan. We had a beautiful view of Clam Lake. We rented a pontoon boat from DeWitt's which was close by and enjoyed two days on the Torch Lake sandbar. It was by far the nicest lake we had ever seen, crystal clear. The house was in a quiet neighborhood and was an easy drive to get to it. It had a great place to have a campfire and it was an easy walk down to the dock. The kitchen was very nice. The house is close to Bellaire and also Alden which were two very quaint towns with nice shops and restaurants. I would suggest that you provide an extra propane tank for the gas grill. Also, let renters know they need to bring life jackets if they want to use the kayaks. There were several games provided which was nice. We enjoyed our time together, and will have many great memories. Thanks for sharing your house with us.
Wonderful home on Clam Lake. Beautiful views from the deck. Enjoy your morning coffee on the pier and close out the evening at the fire pit/patio. Clean and well appointed. Shelly was a great host and answered any questions quickly.
Family & friends stayed together here to celebrate 2 birthdays. We enjoyed boating on Torch, Clam, & Lake Bellaire. Loved the convenience of having our boat right here on the dock. Got to go out at night to see the Northern Lights! Lots of room in the house & plenty of ame items we enjoyed. Cooked most meals at the home & enjoyed the nice big kitchen & deck. We noticed that the home has been updated more since the listing photos. Comfortable beds & furniture. We loved it!
The location was clean, big, and has all the details that were listed online. After having a much more difficult time in another place this was such a great and easy time!
It was myself and my wife, our 6 year old son and 1 year old daughter, my mother and another couple. It was both of the coupleâs anniversary, and one of our birthdays. So plenty to celebrate! The house was top notch. It had everything we needed and plenty of room! The first day was rainy so we didnât get on the boat until the evening, but itâs one of those houses you perfectly content hanging out at. Everything was very clean. Great location. Great dock to tie our 25â pontoon up to. Shelly was great to communicate with. Great memories were made. We look foward to renting this place again !
This was our second stay at this amazing house and peaceful property! We love it! Shelly is an amazing host! The house is so spacious! We love the pool table, fire pit, kayaks and of course watching the wildlife with beautiful Clam Lake in the backyard! Torch Lake Sandbar is a short 20 minute pontoon ride away! We can wait to come again!
We've had a cottage on Clam Lake for over 20 years and weâve been renting out our home on VRBO for over 10 years. We're from southeast Michigan with plans to retire to Clam Lake someday. MSU Grads, we're also both Automotive professionals. We love to travel and really enjoy hearing from our guests. Our goal is to provide you with a beautiful space to make memories with family and friends, we hope our guests will treat our home with respect and care⊠this is our pride and joy, not part of a big rental portfolio. We strive to provide the home to you in excellent condition however like any house, issues arise and we want to hear about it if you encounter anything that needs our attention.
Directly on the Lower Chain of Lakes there is boating/kayaking access to Lake Bellaire, Torch Lake, Lake Skegmog and Elk Lake. Quiet rural road, great for walking, running, biking.
There are lots of rentals in our area but we have stunning views of the Grass River Nature Preserve (no houses in our view) only one neighbor and our home sits on 2 acres. Our home is spacious, great for families with an entire lower level âkid zoneâ with a large sectional couch, tv, pool table, game table, full bathroom and sleeping area where they can all âcamp outâ together (3 double beds and two sets of twin bunks) there is also direct access to the fire-pit area. The large flat front yard is perfect for setting up volleyball/ badminton.
