House as advertised. Beautiful location on Silver lake with many activities 15-20 minute drive. House had many toys for our 3 year old grandson. He really enjoyed making sand castles. The adults really enjoyed the newly installed hot tub. We had a great family vacation.- Anonymous , Posted: 9/4/2024
What a beautiful home right on Silver Lake. Comfortable and peaceful home. We did not get a chance to use the fire pit but we did enjoy the water.- Anonymous , Posted: 7/1/2024Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Allison!

We loved this property! We have a large family with varying ages of the kids and grandkids, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The lake was clear with low traffic, and the pontoon boat was a hit with the kids! Check in was very informative and all of our questions were answered. We will definitely rent this property again!- Anonymous , Posted: 6/30/2024Thank you for your heartwarming review, Lhynn!

We very much enjoyed our stay here! It’s a beautiful home in a great location, and provided the perfect opportunity for two families to get together with plenty of room to spread out if needed. We had a wonderful time and would love to stay here again soon!- Anonymous , Posted: 6/11/2023
Pros:This home had an outstanding view. The kitchen was very spacious for cooking and they even left us firewood for a bon fire. The House is very spacious for 14 people and you didn’t feel claustrophobic. Cons: The fridge and stove were dirty when we arrived and there was also dead bugs everywhere. The grill possibly needs replace it didn’t work on the left side.- Anonymous , Posted: 5/22/2023
A stunning house with a Whaou effect when you first come in. Such a great view of the Silver lake. The house was perfect for our party of 7 with the need for 4 bedrooms but you be even more ! The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful and the house is ideally located. Highly recommend this house and its friendly and responsive hosts Rachel and Jason.- Anonymous , Posted: 5/7/2023Hey Stephane! Thank you so much for the kind review!

This lake house is great for all family types. They don't allow pets, although I wish they would, but other than that it was a great setting. The lake is perfect and the house can accommodate a lot of people I do wish they had 3 full bath rooms for that many folks but 2.5 isn't bad.- Anonymous , Posted: 7/11/2022
This was a fantastic home for our group of 8 adults and 4 little ones! The house had plenty of space and we loved spending time together on the lake. The open concept made for great hanging out while cooking meals and watching the Stanley Cup finals. House was very clean and well equipped. The location on the lake was amazing with beautiful sunsets. The downstairs fridge and bar were extra convenient to have with a large group. We loved the lake and were happy we decided to rent the pontoon boat as well. We would definitely stay here again next time we are in Traverse City.- Anonymous , Posted: 6/26/2022We are so happy to hear of your wonderful time! Thank you for staying with us! We hope to host you next year :)- Bayshore Vacation Rentals staff, Posted: 7/14/2022

Unfortunately the people before us had made a major mess of the house, so we had to cancel. Jody at Bayshore kept in constant contact with me and they offered up some great comps on their other houses in the area. The house looked absolutely gorgeous and the location was beautiful, it was just too bad the people before us were so inconsiderate.- Anonymous , Posted: 3/23/2022Miranda- we are so grateful for your understanding and look forward to getting a chance to host you in the future!- Bayshore Vacation Rentals staff, Posted: 3/29/2022
