LakeView Getaway: Lake views & hot tub!

The host is great at communicating from 30 days out, 2 weeks out, the week of, the day before, the day of, after you check in, before you leave, and after you leave and anything else you may need. Very helpful and easy directions. House had all of the expected items: pots, pans, drip coffee maker, large fridge, microwave, gas stove, oven, toaster, glasses/plates, sheets, towels, comforters.Lits of unexpected touches: slide on shoes, robes, towels for the hot tub, texts about local events, nice welcome book with recommendations, toys, games, smart TV, gaming console (old Nintendo and something else my 11 yr old loved), lots of baby items (crib, high chair, step stool/ potty), extra sunscreen, lots of extra blank, and a warm electric fireplace.We used every bed (all 7), no complaints. Beds were soft and enjoyable.Suggestions/notes: shower curtain needs to be cleaned/changed. Shower did not get hot water (but it was 20 out and that may have effected the temperature). House looks like the pictures, water is 1 house away, but beautiful water views. Lake Huron was spectacular, even in December.Lexington had a cute tree lighting ceremony and Santa came in on a firetruck (very small town/Hallmark movie feeling) and the little shops were open late. We heard next weekend is a horse carriage festival. We saw ice fishing in the harbor. Fun all year round, not just sun/fun.We will be booking with this host again.

Location was perfect! Just the space we needed for our stay, looking forward to booking again in the summer.

We arrived early and I wasn’t feeling well. We were allowed to check in 1.5 hours early. This is very much appreciated! The home is beautiful and the kitchen is clean, stocked with dishes, pots and pans, everything else that you may need. Even every spice you could need. Coffee maker and coffee, tea, blender, a magic bullet, ice cube trays in the freezer. There’s a small separate sitting area off the family room that has an electric fireplace and sitting chairs, a bar to help yourselves and leave yours for others which I thought was a great idea! This room leads to the outside deck where the hot tub is. Very nice touch! Comes with plenty of towels and linens. Has a full size washer and dryer and plenty of laundry detergent and softener sheets. Box fans, children toys, games, books. Great upstairs area with a tv to watch and play video games. Plenty of beds for everyone along with a half bath. The few not so great things: the shower curtain needs replacing as it was disgustingly filthy; the mattress in the room where the laundry is in could use a flipping. Otherwise it’s a comfortable mattress, memory foam. There’s an indoor ring camera at the window by the front door. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Ring indoor cameras, they record sound unless it is turned off. You can’t see this unless you’re using the Ring app and logged in to that exact camera. Due to privacy, the camera was unplugged while we were there even though I’m sure it was to watch the front door.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience! The location, accessibility for information needed for our stay and prompt responses leading up to our stay were excellent! The decor was so lovely, comfy, and the littlest details for anything we may have needed were available. The one item we all thought that needed adjusting as guests was the check in at 4pm (later than would have wanted, and checkout at 10am which is earlier than most places.) Other than that one detail, the stay was exceptional! Thanks again! Christina Sweet and family
