Short relaxing getaway
This property served myself and my girlfriend perfectly for a little getaway! The home itself was awesome and cozy, the area was quiet which was enjoyable, the drive to Traverse City wasn’t bad at all if you’re looking for more to do. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to make our own meals, and the Fire Lake Inn food was very delicious for eating out of the home. The only two complaints I could possibly have (nitpicking here) were that the Heat/AC unit was pretty noisy at night, and the shower upon arrival was a little dirty. I was skeptical driving up north for a vacation in the winter, but we loved it. Would also love to come back during the summer when the lake is more accessible, and utilize the deck and hot tub more.

Very nice place
Nice and clean place with all the amenities, the pontoon was fun but can be tricky parking since you have to park in front of another pontoon, overall, a good place.

Amazing
We had an amazing getaway. The views of the lake from the balcony were amazing. Walking distance from a local bar and only 20 minutes from traverse city! Super clean and spacious. We forgot our AirPods under the pillow and the owner was so responsive and quickly ship them to us. We will definitely go back!
