Family-friendly with Fife Lake access

FranciscoRating, 5 stars6 days ago
It was an absolutely great location, with private access to the lake. It was very affordable, and matched the description. The unit has ample pots and pans, towels, and a large TV to watch movies. The only downside was that there wasn't enough seats to all eat together, since there are only 2 stools and 2 chairs, and the unit allows for 8 people total. However, it isn't a deal breaker. I would definitely and plan to stay here again!

Sunflower Cove 3 Bed/2 Bath Lakehouse of Gladwin

SherriRating, 5 stars4 months ago
There were 4 adults staying for Labor Day weekend. We had more than enough room for all. We have vacationed together for years. We all agreed this was one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. So well put together and everything you could ever need. The yard was beautiful, the deck had beautiful views of the lake. The furniture was very comfy and there was nothing more we could have wanted.

Timberwolf Retreat

TabbathaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I highly recommend staying here. We had 9 kids with ages ranging from 10-20 and they all had a great time, never complained about being bored. The house was big enough to where they could have their fun even when the adult needed to sleep. The house was very accommodating and the outdoor space was absolutely perfect.

GabrielRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Renee was such a delight to speak with throughout the entire process, very quick to respond and extremely helpful. Her place was very immaculate, and so spacious, just as described in the pictures if not even better in person. The beds were the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. My family and I will definitely be back when in the area again! Thank you so much for providing my family and I with a place to make so many great memories at, we had a blast here! ☺️

Jenna's place on Lake Lure was exactly what we wanted for a long weekend getaway. We were there to relax and to try out the lake ice fishing. We caught tons of small pike and some panfish too.

My wife and I had a great time staying here. We arrived and had some issues with the keypad which were quickly resolved by the host. We enjoyed two quiet and peaceful nights in Fife lake and enjoyed the local restaurants. We will definitely keep this in mind for future trips to this area.

Great place to rest and regroup after a busy day of vacationing, or running around town. The hammocks outside were a pleasant surprise. Space was clean, with great views of the lake.

Serene Lakefront Getaway at Fife Lake Lodge

StaceyRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Room is setup like a hotel room or motel. We got confused by the Air BnB check in instructions cause when they were listing 1. 2. 3…. At first we took it as the parking spot we were assigned to was #2. But then we realized the parking is based on the room number matching the spot number. It was an easy place to sleep for the night but we spent most of the time in Traverse City since a lot of places seemed closed in the town. When coming and going there were a lot of spiders on the porch and a couple in our room corners. Beds were clean. The shower did take a bit to warm up. The host does leave notes warning that the hot water takes about 5 minutes to warm up. There is a fireplace you can use down near the water. A few benches are scattered in the yard so you can enjoy the view of the lake. It was beautiful to watch the fog move over the water in the morning. They do have kayaks available but we didn’t use them. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
