Vacation rentals with a fireplace in The Great Lakes

Amazing restoration! Thank you Doug for sharing it with us. Wright fans will be extra impressed by the obvious effort put into every detail inside and out as well as the overall hospitability. And even if you're unfamiliar with Wright's work, a stay here will show you how engaging and inspiring houses can be.

Jereme’s place was very clean and had a lot of character. Every space in the home was very comfortable. The distance to the Bay City State Park and downtown was perfect. Once you step in the A Frame, you feel like you’ve left the city. Great place! Great host!

We stayed at Andrew’s log cabin in Elora and had a such a fantastic time. Firstly, the cabin was so beautiful, thoughtfully appointed and very comfortable. Andrew provided timely recommendations on food and activities. I would highly recommend the Cabin and Cove.

We had a lovely stay at Braden’s place. The home was a perfect gateway for 2 people. Big plus for having plenty of firewood for the guests to use. The home was clean & had all the amenities for a great relaxing stay.

We wish every Airbnb could be like Sandra’s. Her place was exceptionally clean, fun and loaded with so many extra amenities that we lost count. She offered every flavor and strength of coffee imaginable and her treats were beyond our wildest expectations. She also had fresh eggs and pancake/waffle fixings. The house was welcoming. It was hard not to wake up with smiles on our faces from looking at all the artwork and collections. It was a joy. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful and the neighbors are friendly and willing to share stories of the area. Sandra’s place was the last stay on our 30-day road trip - yet it was one of our favorites. We will be back. Thank you, Sandra. We highly recommend this home.

Has a real “Wow”factor as soon as you walk in the door. The upper bedroom area is amazing. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The back deck and yard, the view….Wow again. Along with the usual suspects we regularly saw Bald eagles, Osprey, Egrets and a Pelican. The surrounding area is beautiful. I highly recommend Red Door Retreat. Despite how wonderful it shows in the photos. It exceeded our expectations. Would not hesitate to return.

Amazing didn’t want to leave! What a gem on the North Shore. The views and sounds of the waves were everything I wanted and more. The floor to ceiling windows don’t disappoint. I will be back. Very clean and cozy.

We were able to stay here for a few nights. We stayed at both of Anjila's properties and both are wonderful. As I stated in my other review these places are a part of a duplex with a shared common area but it is fantastic. The hosts are amazing people; incredibly friendly and beyond helpful. The view is simply breathtaking! You cannot stay any closer to the lake unless you sleep on the beach. Everything is appointed to have the best possible experience. I forgot to mention on my other review that the sauna marvelous. I highly recommend either of Anjila's properties. Each place has unique features. We hope to be back!

A friend and I stayed in this beautifully appointed apartment for 3 nights. This is a very well thought out, finely decorated space. The decor is attractive and high quality. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and there are many nice touches throughout the apartment such as robes, nice dishes and glass ware, toiletries and good security. The place is located centrally to Main Street for dining and shopping and within walking distance to most of the attractions of Galena. There are two main entrances to the hallways leading to the individual apartments. One is from Main Street and the other is from Bench St. I will say that while the Bench St entrance itself is very nice, the building is on a street that has seen better days. I hope the rest of the buildings will follow suit to improve their street appeal because the first impression made us wonder if we had the right address. We expected from the photos that this would be in a better kept area.

Great location and property.

My husband and I stayed here right after our wedding. Just a little getaway after all the fun and craziness. The Airbnb was beautiful and exactly like described in the description and photos! It had a sauna, a beautiful bathroom with a separate shower and tub, and a beer on tap, which was a fun little bonus! The balcony was our favorite part. We sat outside in the mornings with a coffee and enjoyed the views (and honestly the people watching lol). The lake is literally across the street and the 3 minute walk was awesome. Overall a wonderful experience! Highly recommend if you need a quick getaway or want to treat yourself to a more “high tech” luxury apartment 🥰

We had a lovely stay at Jim’s place. Beautifully appointed and within walking distance of the beach and great food. Highly Recommend!

A friend and I decided to head north for a quick night away. Taurean’s “King’s Den” apartment was the perfect choice! A gorgeous accommodation, filled with special little extras and attention to detail! We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Matt and shauna were marvellous hosts!! they were extremely responsive and very kind! The house was perfect! Exactly as described, right by the water, for a great price! The cutest place with a full kitchen which was greatly appreciated! The weather wasn’t great but nothing a great book and even better view couldn’t fix! It made the perfect destination for our girls trip! 1000/10 recommend staying with them if you can!

Judi and Dave are simply amazing hosts. They are friendly, beautiful and i truly felt welcomed to their beautiful family oriented home. I will definitely go again, if im permitting. Thanks Judi and Dave for the warmth and hospitality. Esther!

Truly a five star experience. The nicest furnished Airbnb we have stayed in and we have over 30 rentals for comparison. The only thing that keeps it from being the nicest overall is we have stayed at places that had spectacular views and this was mostly rooftops. Service at the Walton was top notch.

We had an excellent stay here. The location is incredible with a gorgeous lake view and amazing sunset view. Indoors it was spacious and very nicely decorated. We particularly appreciated that the airbnb was stocked with everything from kitchen supplies, washroom, even BBQ supplies - we didn’t need to bring a thing. Very well thought out. Gary was an excellent host, very responsive and attended to any question right away. Would definitely recommend a stay here!

The house was perfect for our family of 8. It was spacious and well equipped. It was quiet with lovely views across Lake Ontario. The location was perfect, close to RBG and a 15 drive to good restaurants. Tal was extremely responsive to any inquiries prior to arrival and after arrival. We really enjoyed our stay.

This was our second stay at Hany’s place, and we would come back a third time! Nice house with a few quirks in a great location. The outdoor space and hot tub is great for Michigan weather any time of the year, and inside there is plenty of space for our family of four. The location is wonderful, with all of Saugatuck within just a few blocks. We will definitely consider staying here again next time we’re headed to Michigan!

Our family group had a wonderful stay at Harpreet's place. The property is as-described and photos of the house are accurate. There was a ton of space for everyone to spread out and a great social kitchen/main space setup. The indoor areas were very clean. When we arrived we did have to give the outdoor area a sweep and wiped-down the outdoor furniture ourselves, but that wasn't a big deal. The property backs onto a wetland area, which is beautiful and great for birdwatching. The downside, as others have mentioned, is that there are quite a few bugs. We brought 2 Thermacells and kept them running when we were out on the deck and found this, combined with the netting the host has in place, kept the bugs away and allowed us to enjoy the outdoor space. We did have a minor issue with the BBQ but the host was responsive and everything was resolved quickly. The master bedroom/bath is stunning! Slight drawback for the other bedrooms is there aren't a lot of surfaces for suitcases/bags.

very responsive host. place was beautiful and very spacious. Justin was super helpful and friendly and the place was amazing. I would give a A++++ and would definitely stay there again

We had a lovely family reunion at St Joe’s overlook. Kitchen came with literally everything- all sorts of cooking instruments (crock pot, air fryer, toaster etc), spices/oils, and zip lock bags for leftovers. All brand new appliances and ample prep space. We got the pool heated and it was wonderful! Very large size to fit all the family kids. The hot tub was a nice save for the adults who were freezing. Beautiful views from the living room of the river with ample and comfy seating. The home was perfect for a large gathering. We appreciate Evan and Claire hosting us they were always responsive and helpful.

This place was awesome, a beautiful cottage in the woods with a fire pit, hot tub, walking paths, and just 5 minutes from downtown. My only feedback is about the room setup. The listing shows a room with two bunks, but it’s actually an open loft with one bunk bed. It’s not a private room, so don’t count it as a secluded space. When I book a house, it’s really important that everyone has a quiet room to return to, so I was a little disappointed that some guests got shorted on that. Honestly, it might have affected my decision to book. Otherwise, the stay was beautiful and peaceful, I’d definitely come back!

Had a great stay! House was clean and cozy indoor pool was amazing. (Pool is about 12 feet deep.) Had a bunch of games we could play great outdoor area. Would recommend.
