Perched on a gorgeous five-acre lot on the bank of the Betsie River, this unbelievable getaway will be just the place to get away from it all and breathe in some fresh air. With plenty of room for the entire family, you will have no trouble spreading out and feeling at home in no time. Mingle with loved ones by the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace with a favorite drink in hand as the chef of the group whips up something tasty in the full kitchen. On warm summer nights, there will be no better way to end each day than a cookout on the back deck as the sun dips below the treetops. Plus, the firepit is the perfect place to listen to the water rush by and reminisce about the fun that was had that day with the whole gang.
What's nearby:
Regardless of the season, this special retreat will be just the place for every type of guest to enjoy. When fresh snow blankets the area, the skiers of the group will be glad to know that Crystal Mountain is just over a mile west offering a variety of runs for all experience levels to enjoy. While in the area, everyone will love walking through the exhibits at Michigan Legacy Art Park and soaking up the colors of Fall foliage. A bite to eat and local grocery stores can be found in Thompsonville proper a mile away and a day trip to Lake Michigan is just 18 miles from your front door!

6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2024
As the title states, the house was very clean and there was plenty of room for our two families to enjoy a trip up north. The seating was ample and the outside was great as well. However, there were some issues with it that make me not want to recommend it to other guests, at least with circumstances aligned with ours.
The downstairs bathroom's lock was completely broken on arrival, and given it's a double sliding door, the privacy was poor. This same bathroom's soap dispenser was also empty when we arrived.
The property does have central heating and cooling, but the upstairs bedroom is not included in this. If you're staying in the summer, prepare for the first floor to be cold and the upstairs bedroom to be 10 degrees warmer or more. It was very uncomfortable and hard to sleep. There is a tiny fan up there that wouldn't turn on (just the light worked), and the windows being open didn't help much when it was muggy outside at night. Also, the pillows included on the king bed upstairs were the thinnest pillows I've ever seen, and provided no support. We had to go to the store to buy new pillows to use on our trip. The upstairs is also a loft with very weird ceilings following the contours of the roof, which I understand is probably unavoidable, but as a 6'4" person, I hit my head on the slanted walls a lot at night trying to find my way to the bathroom. This loft area also has no door, so there is zero privacy upstairs.
