Fun Family Weekend
This was the perfect place for our group of 6 adults, a toddler and infant to be together for fun and games, with enough space for private sleeping and quiet time. Upon arrival our 2 1/2 year old grandson made a beeline for the corner beach area and was happy playing with all the toys there all day everyday. We made good use of the paddle boards, kayaks, paddle boat and fishing gear, as well as the yard games. The kitchen had everything this cooking family needed and everywhere we turned there was a basket of essential supplies, from snacks to toiletries to insect repellent to sun screen. The only things we needed to bring were our clothes and groceries. Julie met us when we arrived to show us around this very spacious property and made herself available to answer the couple of questions we had. We would come back.

Perfect Lake Home with Large Backyard
Our family had a wonderful 4th of July stay at this cozy home on the lake. We enjoyed kayaking and outdoor activities galore! We were able to bring our family dog too, which was great! The backyard is amazing, with plenty of room for playing badminton, volleyball, or sunbathing.

Amazing lake front property!
My family and I had the best stay at Julie’s property. We were amazed to find everything we needed at the house - from kitchen supplies, to games, to outdoor equipment. Everything was easy to find and well labeled in the home, not to mention we were met by the host upon arrival for a tour to ensure we were set up for our stay. We enjoyed both the home and the outdoor space at the home so much that we hardly felt the need to leave to explore the surrounding towns. We have already talked about returning again for future family vacations.

Great summer house!
We had an amazing time! This property had everything you could possibly need, except a power boat rental. We ended up renting a boat on Lake Michigan for a day. There were 9 of us and 2 dogs! The property owner (Julie) even had all the things for our dogs that we might need. Everything in the house was labeled, which made it easy to find things and put things away. The hot tub was a great addition even in the hot summer it was relaxing at night. Julie was great to work with! I highly recommend this property!

Lakefront paradise
This vacation rental and Julie both get an A+++++! Julie met me upon checking in to show me around. I was amazed. 3 Fairy gardens for the kids to play with. A huge variety of floaties to play in the lake. Kid sized kayaks, adult kayaks and paddle board and life vests are provided. Surprise baskets everywhere, including a complete smores basket for the firepit. Julie has thought of absolutely everything ....lg. supply of beach towels, relaxing hammock, kid games, adult games, variety of coffees and creamers, comfortable beds. We loved the tiki hut and the sandy beach both with plenty of chairs for all to enjoy. We were a party of 11 aged 4 to gma. There was something for everyone.

Wonderful Vacation Home! Highly Recommend!
The house was perfect for our family! So many amenities plus extra special touches throughout the house! It accommodated our large family really well. The outside grounds were wonderful too! Special spots surrounding the house - sand/beach area, fire pit, Tiki Hut, koi pond, fairy gardens, hammock, hot tub and more! It is obvious the owner, Julie, takes great pride in her vacation home! She was such a wonderful person to work with and she was an outstanding communicator! The weekend we spent here will be a special memory for our family!

Visited the property for a girl’s family weekend. Great accommodations and the host provided everything you would need. The lake was very peaceful and the hot tub very relaxing. Rafts, kayaks and paddle boards were provided for your enjoyment. The Tiki Cove provided a fun atmosphere and the Tiki Toss made it more fun. Looking forward to visiting again.

Great home for large families.
The house is set up beautifully with great spaces to enjoy family time. From the beach on the lake, to the larger setting area in the great room and the open kitchen and dining area, to the game room and the multiple outdoor setting areas, this house is meant for fun. There is so many activities to keep everyone busy. My group really enjoyed our time at Lakeside Cove. Thank you for all the memories we have made at the home.

Home away from home
This host thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. From the 'extras' in case you forgot something like a toothbrush all the way to games, movies, music, and more. My group of 11 all enjoyed being able to use the kayaks, paddle board, and floats. We did bring our dog and the place was set up great for a pet. The property is as advertised, but just note that the '4th bedroom' is really just a big closet with 2 twin beds in it. I easily chose that room because I like it completely dark when I sleep, but my husband wasn't much of a fan. Either way, it would not detract us from staying here again. We liked the location and overall had a wonderful vacation. The sand area was a huge hit with our younger kids and the tiki hut is a great hang out if you want to be outside even when it is raining. Thank you to our host for making it a great stay!

The girls and I had a wonderful stay at Julie’s beautiful lakefront home. The house was well appointed with everything one could possibly need (e.g., a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bath and pool towels, and many games). Additionally, it was spacious and very accommodating for a large group like ours. The lakefront was beautiful and also had plenty of outdoor activities to keep all busy.
