Wonderful Vacation

mjlarh Grand Rapids, MI
Review Submitted: August 27, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
My family stayed at Serenity Bay the First week in August. It was wonderful. The cottage is perfect. It was clean and well taken care of. Beautiful deck and very private. There is a great fire pit area aslo, We had so much fun on the island in the middle of the lake swimming. We brought our waverunners with us and just had a blast the whole week. The cottage is in a perfect area near Traverse City, with lots of thing to keep you busy for the whole week. We would stay here again.
Owner's Response: Come and visit our wonderful chalet. I'm sure you and your guests will have a wonderful time!!!

Thanks mijlar, Grand Rapids, MI, for your response and we are so happy you and your family had a great time. Hope you visit our place again.

Best Vacation Ever!

W. Michigan Family Dorr, Michigan
Review Submitted: July 14, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was comfortable and well-appointed with all the furniture and utensils we needed. We enjoyed spending time on the lake on the Pontoon Boat, as well as the large deck that is always shaded. Even though it was Cherry Festival Week in Traverse City, we chose to stay on the lake because we were having so much fun. The property was quiet and peaceful. We preferred this location over the ones that have beaches because they have many cottages close together and not as much privacy. The sandbar was fabulous and provided the most fun of the week. We cooked out every night on the grill and roasted marshmallows over the fire pit. We're already planning our next visit! It was truly our best vacation ever.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your reply. We love our place and try to make it enjoyable for anyone staying there. We hope you plan to stay again at our chalet.
