The property had plenty of room for all the family coming and going throughout the week. It was clean, all the necessities were there and the lake was quiet

Kevin was such a great host! His family’s place on the lake is a great place to relax and enjoy water activities. We rented their very nice pontoon boat to do some tubing and fishing. Everyone also enjoyed the kayaks as well as fishing off of the dock. The house had plenty of space to accommodate all 6 of us. Ludington and Pentwater are just a short drive away if you need to find a restaurant for dining out or do some shopping. Just be aware that the roads leading to the house are not paved but are in good shape. We drove two SUVs so it wasn’t an issue.

The grandkids had a great time and so did I. Plenty of room and great location to travel for other activities. Neighbors were nice and friendly. The lake was great for fishing, kayaking and paddle boat. Thank you for this wonderful summer memory for the family.
