4th of July on Crooked Lake
It was a great trip. We got to spend time with the kids and grandkids. The house was great with the open floor plans so that we could all hang out and talk having the dock was good also to launch the boat. The Homeowners keep the house very neat and clean.

Great vacation spot
The house and property were exactly as advertised. Spectacularly clean and every accommodation you would hope for. We enjoyed the fire pit each night and had excellent luck fishing off the dock in the early evening. Just a couple minutes from Petoskey was the perfect location. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Getaway at the lake
Up north weekend with family was great. We traveled in April. No AC could be a challenge in the middle of summer but maybe not w the lake breeze. Property is right on 31 and there is some traffic noise but it is not off putting or excessive. Great little property and communicating with the hosts was easy and very helpful.

Beautiful Family Ski Getaway
We had a wonderful long weekend at the home on Crooked Lake. Everything was clean, beautiful, organized and perfect to house our family of 7- including two small children, two grandparents and a dog. We especially enjoyed the lake room - watching the gorgeous sunrise and active wildlife around the lake. Proximity to downtown Petoskey, as well as the ski resorts was optimal for our mixed group of skiers and non-skiers. All communication with the Hewitt's was efficient, pleasant and easy. I would definitely recommend this home -and we are hopeful to be back for future stays!

Awesome place to stay!
We plan a ski weekend with our adult kids and their spouses every year. Unfortunately we never got to the slopes because of the poor winter weather conditions in the midwest this year. HOWEVER this Lake House was a god-sen. We were able to spread out and be comfortable playing games, cooking, talking, watching Rugby on TV, and sleeping. It helped that this VBRO was the best equipped rental we have ever stayed at. I kinda wish it was summer so we could have taken advantage of the lakefront and lake. But the view was awesome. There seems to be plenty to do in town and the surrounding area. We did walk downtown Petoskey then visited a winery out side of town. No question best rental we have stayed at and would recommend it to anyone.

Lovely house and location!
Had a great time at this house skiing at Nubs Nob over MLK weekend. Easy drive to the hill or into Harbor Springs or Petosky for dinner. We had snow overnight every night we were there and the house manager had us plowed out every morning before we wanted to leave. Would love to visit in the summer sometime to enjoy the lake! Will definitely plan to return.

Petoskey Lakehouse
The property was beautiful. We did not realize that the house was right on a major highway until we got the address a week before check in. However the location was ideal for traveling to all the sights we wanted to visit and we got used to the noise. Our hosts could not have been nicer. They provided us with coffee and cream and sugar and there were several spices in the cabinet. We had everything we needed. Our hosts were so thoughtful.
