It is a short drive to town for shopping, at the local grocery store and meat market, it is small but the butcher is fabulous. There is a large grocery store 20 minutes away in Remus, or an, ALDIs, target, Walmart, Sam’s club, or Meijer 30 minutes away in Mt. Pleasant. The soaring eagle casino, or water park are also located in Mt. Pleasant. We found the place and area while visiting the daughters when they went to Central Michigan for college. It is a great for getting away relaxing by the fire or exploring the Martiny chain of lakes on the pontoon boat that is available to rent. Minimum 3 night stay. One hour and 15 minutes to tippy dam for great fishing and close to state land for hunting. Hundreds of acres of state land to explore. Tubing at the river 15 minutes away. We rented a place every year for us and our 5 children and grandchildren to vacation together and decided we should just buy a place we could go to with the kids anytime of year. In the winter it is so relaxing to sit with a fire in the fireplace, yummy food in the oven, playing games with the kids or out in the snow. Since buying this place we have gained 5 more grandchildren making it a total of ten, and our 11th on the way July of 2024. We love going and staying there if only for a weekend and hope you will enjoy it too. One of the reasons we hose a home with 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms. The home is on an acre of land with lots of room for yard games and sitting by the fire pit.

Fun access to lakes
We had a nice stay at the property. Boat rental was mostly beyond our budget (we rented it for one day), but it is a lovely kayak ride over to Tubbs lake from the cabin. Thank you for a nice week!

Great Place
The House is beautiful and clean the property is spacious and quiet, being on the canal was peaceful and fun.The Master Bedroom & Bathroom/Shower were amazing. The Boat was great to have and you catch a ton of fish off the dock and in the canal & Lakes. We wish there was a bit more swimming close by as the closest thing is a boat launch but the owners were amazing at pointing us to multiple very nice beaches within 20 mins. Overall a Great Location to spend a vacation. We had 6 adults and 3 young kids and were not cramped at all. We all Loved it!

Annual Fishing Getaway
My dad, brother, and I stayed for a few days for our annual fishing trip up north. We enjoyed everything about the place. It’s a beautiful property and very well maintained. The pontoon was perfect for us, despite some trouble the last day but anyone who owns a boat knows things happen. The lakes were beautiful and we had a very relaxing time. This place has plenty of space for everyone and one of the nicest yards around. Host was very responsive and would highly recommend this place for a nice summer getaway.

Summer Rental
The house was spacious and clean. The host replied to our inquiries in a timely manner and was helpful in providing other info we asked about. It’s a great place for anyone wanting a quiet getaway. Suggestion for Improvement: Allow your guests to adjust the thermostat while they are there Note: The neighbor had firewood at a good price 😀

Family Vacation
Great family vacation!! The house was very clean and accommodating for my family of 10. We spent the day at Silver Lake which was about an hour and 40 minutes but worth the drive. The kids enjoyed the fishing by the dock. The bonfire at night was very peaceful . Everyone had a great time! Rented the boat for Saturday but we had thunderstorms so we didn't get to go to the surrounding lakes or spend a lot of time on it. Paul was really good about answering all my questions. We will definitely be back again!!

Unplugged/ Reboot Trip
Had a great time here! Was nice being able to rent pontoon with the stay. Plenty of water to see and fish. Kids had fun fishing off shore, making s’mores at the fire. Plenty of room inside the house. Was great to get away from the everyday hustle and bustle and unplug for a few days.

Girls Weekend!
Rented this house with my Mom and Twin Sister for our birthday weekend - it was great! House is clean and roomy. Hosts are very responsive to questions, but some info was lacking on the check in page. Instructions for check in and check out were easy to follow once we got them. Comfy furniture and beds, clean linens, fast wifi and right on the water. Couldn't ask for more.

Our Michigan Vacation
We loved boating through the open channels and seeing the beautiful vegetation and wildlife on the lake. The house was nice, and had everything we needed for our trip. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and fishing in the canal by the house. Great get-a-way for any family! Owners were very helpful!

Family Vacation
The house is true to the pics and very spacious and comfortable for my family of 8. kitchen very well stocked for cooking and plenty of storage for food. We were missing a pizza pan or pizza cutter but made due. Also, the frig /top freezer thing was new for us. Didn't relize it was also just a frig. couple of things got thawed out but was not a problem. Might want to put that info in the instructions or on the frig somewhere for renters. We enjoyed our time and the pontoon boat was great. Fishing was good, didn't due much swimming because the water was very cold. Only mother nature can change that. Would rent here again.
