Surrounded by lake in front of house and in back- beautiful lake views. Clean and well equipped. Perfect set up for a group. Rooms spacious and loved the back sunroom overlooking lake. We arrived to a wonderful welcome gift of local coffee, cinnamon toast, UP chocolate bars- and a six pack of a local ale. Hope to come back again during the summer this time.

This is a beautiful home full of personal touches to make anyone’s stay perfect! Communication was excellent. The home was clean and cohesive. Awesome place to enjoy the beautiful Bass Lake. My family had a lot of fun fishing and kayaking. Wish we had more time at the house but were in the area for our daughter’s wedding so we’re gone quite a bit. Definitely would love to come back.

The home was very clean and inviting. A very nice welcome of local products was a great touch. We had a group of 6 adults and 2 children and everyone had a wonderful time even though it was a bit rainy . The kids caught many small bluegills off the dock .They kept the local bait shop busy.The adults enjoyed the beautiful deck and had a few nice sunsets from the gazebo. The water was shallow enough for the smaller kids to enjoy with a sandy type bottom .The home itself was quiet,with a large livingroom and loved the back sunroom . The kitchen was well stocked and clean . We grilled out a few times and loved the big dining room table where everyone could eat together. We also went to Marquette several times for shopping, meals and cocktails. Would definitely recommend staying here and would come back ourselves again .

This house was perfect for our needs. I especially loved the sun room off the back. I could sit outside and enjoy sitting on the deck which is super close to the to the lake, but still feel part of whatever was going on in the house. They provide everything you could need: fishing poles, floats for the lake, linens, beach towels, bath towels, bikes, pots, pans, a grill, kayaks, a SUP, a paddle boat, life jackets, etc. My son caught a 27 in pike fishing off a kayak. The kitchen was extremely well stocked compared to other places we've rented. Close town and centrally located for day trips to Marquette, Munsing, etc. They even had a pontoon available to rent for an extra fee. Already booked our stay for next year!

The title says it all, we had all the comforts of home while being able to roll out of bed and jump in the lake.Large kitchen full stocked with pots, pans, large fridge and an extra fridge in the garage. The deck is amazing, plenty of room to live outside. The water is very accessible with minimum stairs and hand railing. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Great for all seasons!

We stayed in this house during the winter and it was spectacular! We were able to ice skate on the frozen lake and drink hot chocolate by the fire place. But the house has everything you need for the summer! It is also very well stocked if you like to cook. The house was absolutely perfect for our family of 8! Looking forward to coming next summer!

Wonderful Stay

This place was amazing with the water on both sides. It offered something for everyone in our group kyaking, fishing, bonfires. Parking was a bit tight as we had four trucks and trailers with side by sides but we were able to make it work. We had a wonderful time riding the trails during the day and hanging out playing cards and sitting around the campfire at night. Would love to come back during the summer and again next fall. a great hangout spot

Cozy Lake House

We rented this lake house for a visit to my father's childhood home in Sagola. Not much is close to Sagola so we were happy to find a spacious home on the lake that could accommodate our family of 8 adults. Our GPS got confused and we were a bit lost on the way, but our host was incredibly helpful and gave us step by step directions to find the home. It was easy to access and to unload our belongings. The home listing is accurate and the photos are current. The views are amazing! It was also very quiet as the home is at the end of a road and the neighbors are not too close; it felt very private. There are some odd nuances like having to make the beds upon arrival (no idea why sheets are not on the beds), and a pretty long list of clean up upon departure. This home is very likely not often rented and is used more as a family home in which guests would not mind making beds, stripping beds, putting laundry into bags and clearing trash for the host. The cleaning fee is marginal for the size of the property, so it was not much of an imposition. Those nuances aside, this place is very comfortable and private and has beautiful views. There are gas and grocery options within a short drive, so it is not too remote either. I would recommend this lake house to others who need a place to stay in this part of the Upper Peninsula.

Wonderful Upper Peninsula Experience

We loved this house. It was lovely, clean, comfortable, in a quiet location on a beautiful lake. We enjoyed fishing in the lake. The house is close enough to Marquette that we were able to enjoy the Pictured Rocks boat tour and take advantage of dinners in some of the great restaurants in Marquette. Wonderful vacation!

Our family found ourselves wanting to stay and enjoy the property more and it’s picturesque beauty. Originally we had planned to sight see the whole time and we were glad to enjoy the home half of our stay. Also, we were very impressed we could view the Northern lights on our last night. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the master bedroom’s views and will definitely come back to stay here! It was such a treat to have a view of the lake feol eaxh room in the house.

Summer Family Getaway

This home was a wonderful stay for an extended family vacation. The home was spacious and well stocked. The outside area was wonderful. Our only negative feedback was regarding the lake, this is more of a fishing lake than a water sports lake in our opinion, and our boat was too large for this lake. Not the fault of the owners and we were able to enjoy their pontoon for the week which was very nice! However we would not bring our boat back to this location. Otherwise the stay was perfect!
