Vacation rentals with a fireplace in The Great Lakes

We the great experience of being able to stay at both of Anjila's properties! The main things that stood out to us the most was how incredibly accommodating and friendly the hosts were and so responsive. I cannot say enough about them. And the spectacular view! WOW! To be clear, this is a unique set up with sharing the common areas outside and a wall with other guests but it works! We met the other family staying and they were super nice. Yes you do hear the other guests a little but to experience the views like these units offer and the friendliness of the hosts far make up for any possible "noise". It was never loud either. Both units have pluses. Both have great beds, space, incredible stock of spices (that was great as I always forgot those), and it seemed they had everything you could possibly want to have for a great outdoor experience! I truly hope we will be back. Thank you so much!!!

If you are looking for a peaceful, private location with beautiful views in the UP, look no further! We loved our stay - the house had everything we needed and was in an absolutely beautiful location. We will be back!

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.

I’ve dreamed about staying here for 5 years and finally did a little mini retreat for myself and will absolutely be back! It was incredible!!!

What an absolute privilege to spend a couple of nights in a Frank Lloyd Wright home. No stone was left unturned in restoring, furnishing, and decorating the space to its original grandeur. The home is full of literature, original architectural plans and artwork that enhance the understanding of the design, and of the home's place within The Acres community. Marika is the most accommodating and gracious host. We are eternally grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Stayed only for one night and really wished we booked it for longer, really nice clean place with beautiful views and a beautiful backyard. Definitely worth it!!!!

A peaceful getaway for our little family. It really does have everything for a relaxing stay. The view is amazing, the pool was nice and big very clean with tons of floats. The hot tub was great 😌. Cooked out on the grill when it was nice out and ordered pizza and did a puzzles when it rained, we couldn’t have gotten a more relaxing mini vacation. I will definitely tell friends and family about this location. Our dog 🐕 loved the fenced in yard and we very much enjoyed the fire pit! If we actually knew how to kayak we definitely would have used what they provided. Don’t hesitate with this hidden gem! You won’t regret it.

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.

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.

We enjoyed our stay at this accommodation. It is located right across the street from a Lake Lansing and one morning the sunrise was the most spectacular orange reflecting off the Lake. We enjoyed the infrared sauna both days we were there, the place was clean, quiet and filled with new smart electronics. Thank you we would stay here again!

Great spot! Jim is attentive and the place is great. Would stay again

I had a great stay! The place was very clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The bed was comfortable, and all amenities were in good condition. The host was responsive and helpful throughout my stay. I would definitely recommend this place and stay here again.

Such a beautifully decorated and well-appointed space for our last minute “mini-moon!” The apartment was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed, and then some. The thoughtful touches (robes, slippers, treats) were much appreciated. We loved the hot tub with the river view. Robert and Taurean were friendly and very responsive hosts! We would return in a heartbeat.

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!

Beautiful and comfortable home, nicely decorated. Felt like home away from home. The place is very cozy with a great view at the river, very relaxing. I have to say it has exceeded my expectations. Judi and Dave are very responsive. I would book again in a heartbeat.

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!

Nice big indoor pool (12 feet deep at one end and 3 feet at the other). The newly renovated rooms are very open and spacious. All the bedrooms are well kept. Lots of games to play(soccer table, poker, table tennis, etc.). Lots of pullout sofas and chairs. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks Jack!!
