Awesome
The property is just as described, the home is very cozy and very well equipped. The fenced in yard is a huge bonus, it was the first time our Shih Tzu Bruno was able to run free and he loved it!! My husband filled the bird feeders and within hours we had a wonderful outdoor show. The house offers beautiful views of the lake in several rooms. Check in was simple and our host left us a much appreciated bottle of wine. Perfect Anniversary get-a-way. Thank you!

Wonderful family gathering
I’m from Michigan which is where most my close friends and family I drove in from New Hampshire and my brother drove in from Florida and we were able to spend the whole time together. We were also there for our nephews graduation party which was wonderful and people could meet at our place to all be together it was perfect. Thank you for your wonderful accommodations.

Absolutely Perfect Lake Home
We enjoyed a long Labor Day weekend at this wonderful lake home and everything was just perfect! The home is beautiful and stocked with all the comforts and conveniences of home. The layout was optimal for our extended family with 3 bedrooms all with lake views and plenty of space to sleep for our party of 4-6 with teenagers coming and going. The beds were so comfortable and we all slept great. Bathrooms were spacious for a lake home and updated. Best part was the gorgeous fenced in yard that walked right out to the boat dock. Our chocolate lab was spoiled with easy swimming right from the yard and a safe yard to explore. We brought our pontoon and had amazing cruises around the large lake. Absolutely perfect! Can’t wait to come back!

Lake house
The house was so beautiful!!! It is on the lake and plenty of places to eat within 10mins. Also a grocery store and Walmart 10 mins away. Location is safe and quite. Check in and out was easy. The kitchen is fully stocked !!! Plenty of linens and dish soap and laundry soap etc TVs in all 3 bedrooms and one main room. Comfy beds Pontoon available to rent House does not have central air however there are ac units in all 3 bedrooms and the main living room. We went in 1st week of august and house was fine we turned off the ac during the day came back and turned them on and place was cooled down quickly Also house does not have city water but they have water softener and a filtration system. So of you are not used to that water has a sulfee smell. Bring some bottled water I still give this house 5 stars and we will be back and I highly recommend the house. It is super cool and has great view of the lake great sunsets and a fire pit

Couldn’t ask for more….
You simply couldn’t ask for more by staying at the North Shore House and having Sandra and Rob as your hosts. The house is the perfect lake house. It is impeccably decorated, clean and beautiful, yet so cozy and warm. The house is so well stocked with anything you might need. If it’s not there, you can get by without it. Sandra has thought of everything. If you have questions about anything, they are right there to answer or help. You will not be disappointed. This was our first stay at the North Shore but already planning to return again next year. Thank you for a perfect week. Steve and Vicki

Quaint and beautiful
Loved this place! Perfect spot to enjoy the lake, with a great size yard and beautiful views. Rented a pontoon boat for 2 days from owner and this was the perfect way to enjoy the entire lake and fish; although fishing right off the dock was just as good! Enjoyed fire at night in the backyard. The house was perfectly equipped with all needed! Great memories made!

Cozy lake house close to Ann Arbor
We stayed here for my niece’s graduation. We had fun exploring Howell, Ann Arbor and Northville. The deck has a lovely view of the lake and it is a great place to kick back. The kitchen is well appointed but there are plenty of good restaurants nearby.

Great mini holiday inn.
Great place, plenty of space, comfortable beds, with a beautiful view. The only complaint is that a brighter light in kitchen would be helpful especially if preparing a large meal, and oops we forgot to bring hair dryer as i didnt read fine print. It was the most furnished VRBO i have ever stayed in.

Amazing location! This place has everything you need and more. The home is very comfortable and the lake is gorgeous. We spent a week (two couples) and had a great time swimming, fishing, laughing and bbqing! If you like watching birds, we saw a variety from hummingbirds to ospreys. The best hosts, just ask if you have any questions, and they respond right away. If you are trying to make up your mind, just pick this place, it’s lovely.

The perfect lake getaway
We couldn’t possibly be happier with our stay! Sandra and Rob were wonderful to work with and the house was beautiful. It had everything we needed and the lake was perfect! We spent hours chatting on the deck looking out over the lake, roasting s’mores in the fire pit, or floating in the lake. The six year old had fun searching for stones and jumping off the pier. We didn’t spend much time inside because the outside was so perfect, the kitchen was well appointed, the living/dining room was gorgeous, the showers had great water pressure, and the beds were comfortable. All in all, a perfect vacation!
