It's a beautiful place!

We really enjoy the big family room, where we hung out to watch football and tell stories of the fun day of fishing on the PM. The best part is all the beds that were available to us. The house was very clean with a spectacular view of the lake from the beautiful deck. it's a beautiful home, definitely the best place we have stayed over the last 20 plus years. Thank you, Christine and Michael, for being a wonderful hosts!

Perfect Long Weekend

This property was perfect for our long weekend getaway. The house was clean and access to amenities were superb. When we had questions the responses were timely. The pictures do not do the property justice. It was even better in person!

Quiet, secluded lake home to relax

Great place to relax and hangout, we used as a home base for many West Michigan activities and state park visits. The stay quickly felt like being in our own home, the property owners pay great attention to detail, and their pride of ownership shines!

Absolutely Fabulous

Our family had an absolutely fabulous time at Peace of Pine! House was very clean, comfortable and spacious. Kitchen is well stocked with lots of cooking utensils and grill on deck was super clean and ready to use. Beyond creature comforts by far the best time was hanging out at the lake. Our grandkids, ages 5 & 3, spent hours fishing from the dock and swimming in the lake which is very clean and clear. Communication with the owners was prompt when we reached out to them. We are hoping to return next summer.
