Photos and Description of the Gladwin vacation house rental
3 Bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 7

Impressive remodeled vacation home situated on a terrific one acre spot with 140ft . of water frontage on the Tittabawassee River between Gladwin and West Branch. A beautiful place to play and relax in a scenic waterfront setting during your spring, or summer vacation! The house has a large living room with a huge stone fireplace and (3) sliding double door walls that open onto two large sunny decks overlooking the river. There are three bedrooms (all new carpeting in Aug '10), a sun room, a custom built kitchen, six skylights, and a really big family room with a large screen TV....this home is built for comfort and relaxation! The custom kitchen is fully equipped; microwave, coffeemaker, pots/pans, dishes and tableware. Outside is a gas grill, picnic table, lot of deck furniture and a fire ring. Also a private boat launch/ramp 80 yds. away, and a personal boat dock right on the property. In addition to all of this, there is a gazebo covered hot-tub for 6 right outside your doorwall!

Things to do: Go fishing, swimming or water ski from your own private dock. A small paddle boat is also provided. There are two golf courses nearby, great restaurants and good shopping within the area (including an outlet mall). Or you can just relax and sunbath on the two large attached decks, or spend some soothing time in the 6 person hot tub! Take quiet stress-relieving walks on the nearby forest paths. Local state-land forest is teeming with deer, turkey and other wildlife. Enjoy an evening roasting marshmallows over the bonfire pit under blazing stars. Bring your bikes and or your canoe!

Why Tom Kaucic chose Gladwin

It is on a wide bend in the river with 140+ft of waterfront. It is VERY close to 'State Land'; heavily wooded, nature trails, NO future development, LOTS of deer, raccoons, and other wild animals. We used to snow-mobile in this area and when we decided to buy 'up north' my family loved this spot! The house is totally updated and suitable for year-round living.....AND it is only a 2 1/2hr drive from metro-Detroit area!!

Great Family House

  • Submitted: Jul 28, 2012

Tom,
Wow what a great hide away. The lake view was amazing and I enjoyed the long white barked trees that ran along all the country roads. Jordan and I took a couple walks down the dirt roads around the lake, very relaxing and peaceful. Jessica, Braden, Jordan and I took the pontoon boat out to the middle of the lake and swam. In the evenings we played either my favorite, baseball, or Jessica's favorite, soccer. The front yard is great for family sport games and ours got pretty intense. Hanging with the family at dinner on the big deck was really nice too. Hope to come back again and relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Ashley Stazzone and Family
Owner's Response: Thanks Ashley for the nice review!
I am so glad that you got to appreciate the "very relaxing and peaceful" aspects of my home. So often families are to busy having fun there, and they overlook the woods, small critters and natural beauty that surrounds the place!

Best regards, Tom K.
