Silver Lake Fun
The family really enjoyed our time at Silver Lake - from the dune rides to the jet skis the family had a great time. Mark met us on our arrival and was able to point us the right direction for a week of rest and relaxation.

Mark’s home is exactly what we were looking for. Beautifully updated. Tons of seating. Beautiful outdoor space and the views of the lake breathtaking. We rent a VRBO every summer in Michigan. I can honestly say this one was the best!! The home has ABSOLUTELY everything you could need. The A/C worked great on days we needed it. Otherwise there are plenty of windows for fresh air. Lovely!! The beds were super comfy. The layout worked perfectly with the large open area around the kitchen AND an additional huge family room. We thought the 2 bathrooms might be an issue but honestly it never was. The way the main floor bathroom is set up, the shower is doored off and has enough room to change and mirrors to get ready! Mark you have outdone yourself. Although you are booked for our dates next year, I’m certain we will be back. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!

Large house with great front porch
This is our second time to this property. Unlike some rentals the kitchen is stocked with plenty of garbage bags, soap, etc. The bathrooms have soap, shampoo and conditioner which is so nice! There are plenty of chairs at the cottage for around the fire and the front porch, bikes, marshmallow roasters, pizza pies, etc. One of the upstairs bedroom(not the bunk room) gets very warm even with the air conditioning on. This probably isn't usually a problem but we had a couple hot and humid days! I love that the sheets aren't on the bed when you arrive because then you know they are clean! Great stay with lots of room!
