Winter wonderland fun!

My family and I rented this beautiful lake house and enjoyed the snow, some sledding, the warm fireplaces and just being together as a family. It was plenty big enough for all of us, the yard was perfect for the kids to run around and play in the snow, and the kitchen was great for our family dinners! Any questions we had were answered immediately and check in/check out was smooth because of the great communication we had throughout the process! We had a wonderful stay and can’t wait to come back to try it out during the summer!

Lovely Home

Our stay for the most part was really wonderful. The home is simply gorgeous. There was plenty of room for everyone with having the seven bedrooms that were all also very lovely. The kitchen is out of this world. We never had so much cold storage in our lives. The property manager was wonderful When we had issues.

Perfect vacation setting…

The LoraLee provided the perfect set up for 20 family members across three generations to come together for the week. The home is comfortably decorated with many upscale amenities including a dream kitchen to not only prepare food for the masses but also enough space to all enjoy a meal and socialize together. In summary, the home provided all the getaway comforts of home required. Kristin was a dream host to work with —. We hope to be back!.

Michigan Lakeside perfection

We had a wonderful family reunion last week in Michigan. The home was all that we could have hoped for. Plenty of room for our 3 generations and 17 family members. The carpet kept things quiet and comfortable.New kitchen was very well appointed, with plenty of fridge space to accommodate. Outdoor area including grill was great for our large group. Really a perfect place to enjoy the summer and the Sister Lakes area.

Awesome Home

Beautiful home, wonderful kitchen with a huge Island and great family gathering spaces. Outdoor BBQ Grill, and pit were enjoyed, even though the weather was cool. We did an Easter Egg Hunt in the spacious yard. So many things were stocked, and every utensil you could want was there. Ice maker, 2 wine fridges, cooling drawers for pop, water, beer and canned beverages. There was ample refrigerator space. It was all that was advertised and more.

Quick Michigan Getaway.

Very nice place! Just four of us and the dogs. Kitchen/FR/DR area is so big. Kitchen has huge wonderful island and all kinds of appliances. Definitely could handle a big group. We had great weather and spent so much time on the patio watching the lake. The yard is fenced but you do have to push a heavy rolling gate across the driveway. Still, great for the dogs to have all that room to run and play! There is a road between the house and the lake but it’s not terribly busy. The beds were comfortable and the a/c was great at keeping the place cool. Lots of orchards and farm stands in the area. Short 30 minute trip to St. Joseph and Lake Michigan. 🙂

Lorlee the place to bring family together!

We absolutely love this cottage on Dewey Lake! I've stayed here several times before and keep coming back every Thanksgiving with my big family. It's always super clean, cozy and perfectly set up for my big family for a relaxing stay. The lake views are beautiful, and the space fits our whole crew comfortably. We have also been there in the summer and that is PERFECT too! Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay! The outdoor space was fantastic and easily accommodated our group, making it perfect for gathering and relaxing. The kitchen, with its large island, was ideal for cooking and serving meals together. Beds were very comfortable, and there were plenty of towels for everyone. The host was quick to respond to any questions or issues that came up. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend this property!

Everything about the stay was great. We had a couple questions, but nothing urgent. The questions we did have were answered very quickly. Anyone that stays there should go to “Amanda’s” and bring a pie back for ice cream and coffee.

Great house for big groups! The kitchen is incredible and the house overall is very roomy with good sized bedrooms. The dock is across the street from the property & not continuous with the grass yard which is hard to tell from photos but overall did not impact our stay! Quiet road with friendly neighbors & we’ll definitely come back next year if they’ll have us.

Fantastic stay

I was invited to stay at Lorlee for a big family birthday celebration week! The house is newly thoroughly renovated - and gorgeously done. The kitchen with all top notch new appliances is spacious and perfect for hanging out and cooking together. We are already planning on coming back and doing it again next year - for sure new family tradition. I can highly recommend any stay at Lorlee.

Family vacation

This was overall a wonderful vacation for our family! The only downfall was the road that had to be crossed to get to the lake. It is a VERY busy road and vehicles drive very fast unaware of people crossing. Kristin was amazing and brought us some cones and signs that helped some but unfortunately that part is not able to be controlled. The surrounding fence keeps kids and pets in and safe but just be careful when anyone leave the yard. The house was beautiful and lake was warm and kids were able to swim and reach the bottom quite a ways out. Amazing fire out in back to sit and relax with plenty of yard space for games and kids to play!!Wonderful week spent with our family and would go back for sure!!!
