We found checking into the lake house to be very easy, the location is great with trails, the dunes and beaches all close by. The owners were very responsive to any questions we had and fixed a minor issue immediately. The house is well stocked and we did not need to bring much. The outdoor space is wonderful to grill out and hold nightly bonfires with easy access to kayaks and the lake cannot be beat. Walking out to a great sunset every night was exactly as advertised.
As for the negatives, as is common in this area of MI, there is no AC throughout the house. Some of the bedrooms were quite hot even with windows open and fans running as we stayed near the end of July. You should be aware of this going in. Also, we had to deal with mosquitos coming off the lake into the house on a nightly basis in the bunk bedroom. Unclear how they continued to get in through the screened windows, but it was a nightly endeavor to get rid of them and keep them off the kids. Couple of other minor things, several electrical outlets did not work and there was a bedroom window that would not open. Overall, it is a fun space with great outdoor activity to be in for the week.
