Peaceful Stay on Fife Lake
We had a wonderful time visiting this property on Fife Lake. We came into town to run in the Bayshore 10k but wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of Traverse City on Memorial Day weekend. We found the perfect spot to do that! The cottage is beautiful, spacious, very clean and well stocked. We enjoyed cooking in the large kitchen, playing games inside and games of catch outside in the large yard, sitting on the dock taking in the beautiful sunshine, reading on the deck, a bonfire, and lots of quality family time. The property is very peaceful and serene. We saw swans, herons and had the unique opportunity to watch a turtle lay her eggs in the driveway! Carole is a very gracious, kind and supportive host! Highly recommend a stay at this lovely property.

Beautiful place to getaway
My husband and I spent the weekend here with our dogs in October. The fall colors around the lake were unparalleled. Kitchen was stocked, bed was comfy, plenty of room for the dogs to run. We walked through the forest to the other lake and watched bald eagles. Deer came to visit in the evening. Nice quiet and relaxing stay.

Gorgeous lake house
We enjoyed a chilly fall extended weekend. Chalet is well planned and functional, plugs and lights where you want them, etc. We were delighted to find we could leave our cotton thermal blankets in their bag, since the hosts have them on the beds. I enjoyed cooking in the well supplied kitchen. Hubbie worked a bit, internet slows down a lot on the weekend (like most places up north), so watching shows that I downloaded early in the morning through my phone’s hot spot worked quite well. A wonderful get away.

Serene Piece of Paradise
Our weekend stay here was too short! This very private spot, surrounded by woods with a small lake for paddling was perfect for relaxing on the large deck and watching the dogs run and play. The house had everything we needed and Carole was very accessible for questions. We hope to be able to return some day!

Chalet
We had a wonderful week stay at the Chalet. Carol was a gracious host and immediately responded to any questions. We made use of the lake for floating and fishing; catching bluegills and sunfish on every outing. The home was well equipped with everything we needed and the peaceful location was everything we could have wanted. We will definitely be back.

Excellent Private Getaway!
The home was quite away off the road and so quiet you could talk to the boys across the lake fishing from the dock! The road off the driveway was an ORV trail so it was perfect to leave the house and hit the ATV trails that surround the area! Will definitely be back.
