Beautiful Place to Spend Time With Family

5 of 5

We just returned from spending 9 nights at the Burke Tile House and had a fantastic time. We spent nine nights there with my mother in law, wife, four kids and our dog. As one reviewer mentioned, the house comes equipped with virtually everything you can possibly need to make it feel like home. We spent a great deal of time using the boats and swimming on the very private beach. It was absolutely perfect and the kids had a blast. There is plenty to do in the area and we recommend visiting the Gaylord farmers market that they have downtown on saturdays and wednesdays. The grill was perfect for grilling some local fresh fish. Thanks again for such a delightful place to spend our vacation. We hope to see you again soon.

We just returned from a week at Burke's Tile House. The home is warm and very clean and comes equipped with everything you need. The property is AMAZING, so beautiful and quiet! Everything was perfect, including the beach, fire pit, use of kayak, paddle boat, canoe and row boat and convenient storage shed down at the beach. There is a sand bar not far from the beach that my boys (7, 10, & 12) went to with the paddle boat, then, later when the bravery set in, they swam out to. There is also an island on the lake that we went over to with a sandy beach, fire pit and some short trails. A fun adventure! Burke's tile house is a great place for a family to reconnect. We look forward to making many future memories here!!!

Wonderful Home to Vacation at

This was our second vacation at the Tile House. Both experiences were wonderful. We had children there that were 1, 3, 6, and 8. The lake was perfect for them and for us adults. So relaxing to be able to sit on the beach and have them swim and not worry about a big drop off. They spent everyday playing in the sand, swimming, and fishing off the floating raft. We took them fishing on the row boat, canoe, and pontoon. Nights were spent having bonfires and watching the sunset. The weather was perfect all but the last day we were there. Its so peaceful there. Its very clean with all the conveniences of home. We cooked and barbequed every night that we were there and the kitchen is loaded with any kitchen gadget you would need. If you have a bad weather day and you have kids staying with you, BCs Pizza is a great place to go. They have a pizza buffet and an indoor play structure. I just can't say enough about what a great place this is to stay. We had a great week reconnecting with our family and making fun memories. Thank you for opening your home up to us!

Wonderful Family Vacation Home

5 of 5
Submitted: July 21, 2010 Stayed: July 2010
Burke's Tile House is a great place to vacation with young children. The water is pretty shallow out to the end of the dock. Our grandchildren loved it and so did we. Our Adult children enjoyed fishing, canoeing and kayaking. We all enjoyed the paddleboat. The beach was perfect. The weather was wonderful the week of July 11th through July 18th. Highs in the 80's low's in the 60's. We had 2 overcast days with two rain showers. We spent one day on
Makinac Island, it was very pretty. One night the kids went miniature golfing and had ice cream at Mooney's. The rest of the week was spent relaxing, enjoying the sun, water, campfires, smores and family memories. Staying here was the best because we had all the conveniences of home and all the fun of a vacation. Hopefully, this will become a tradition in our family.

What a great place to stay on vacation. We had 4 generations, baby Bella 19 months up to Grandma Gloria 77 yrs. We all had a great time. The beach area was great for the kids and adults. We enjoyed the quietness of the area. The house had everything we needed. This is a very safe and wonderful place to vacation with small children. Hope to return.

So Beatiful, So Relaxing

A beautiful home in a beautiful setting. The large sandy beach was great for the kids to play on, enjoy the warm sun reading a book or even sit at the picnic table playing board games. The water was so warm and clean. We had a great time swimming, skiing and tubing. The large yard accomodated the many games of the ladder game that were played. The remote location is a relaxing get away from the busy lifestyles of today, yet within minutes of Gaylord with its nice restaurants, and fabulous stores. The home itself was very clean and welcoming, with a vase of fresh flowers to greet us. We were so cozy and felt right at home. We would recommend this vacation property to anyone. It is simply beautiful! There are so many things to enjoy--sitting on the deck and watching the sunsets over the water, the path down to the beach, the firepit, the warmness of the home. Our family had a great time.

We spent a week snowmobiling in Northern Michigan. We have a family place but due to restoration it was not available this winter so we went looking for another place to stay. It was perfect, we usually do not have hot and cold running water, flush toilets, or the ability to shower but this was wonderful. Great snow and weather cold with wind chill at negative 25 during one day and blowing and drifting snow. Beautiful view of lake and the kitchen was so well stocked we had all kinds of dishes and pots and pans. The driveway was plowed when we arrived and then again a few days later due to snow fall. In the future if we ever need a place to stay the Burke Tile House willbe first on our list. Very much like home and just wonderful. Would recommend to anyone and will pass the word along to friends.
