Feedback from families and groups who have stayed at Turkey Foot Lodge and experienced the space, setting, and comfort firsthand.

"The house was exactly as described.  It has a nice size kitchen and great basement game room to hang out in.  We had three families staying and had plenty of room.  The driveway is steeper but even with all the snow, we had no problem driving up it.  Someone even came to plow it again when it snowed during our stay.  Overall, it was a great house for our ski vacation."

"Winter Wonderland!  My family and I visited Bellaire in January and found Hong’s home perfectly suited to our needs. There was plenty of room for everyone. It was clean with extra added amenities like toys for the children and a game room for the adults. We really enjoyed the gas fireplace, as it was snowy and chilly all weekend!  Hong was a perfect host and we would highly recommend."

"This was our second annual family trip to Michigan and Hong’s place exceeded our expectations! The property is BEAUTIFUL, secluded and extremely homey! The home is giant, allowing our family of ten to fit comfortably with extra room on top of that. Soo many things to do within the home that kept the kids entertained at all times after we had returned back for the evening. We experienced no issues, Hong was always quickly responsive and I loved that. I highly recommend and we definitely plan to return!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed having our sibling reunion at Hongs place. The kitchen was well stocked which made it easy to cook some meals. There was plenty space to spread out and relax which made for enjoyable family time. The outdoor ‘fire’ pits were very nice!  The beds were very comfortable. Hongs home is spacious, beautiful and clean, we highly recommend!"

"This beautiful Bellaire home was as described and more!  It is so peaceful and had so much room for our group of 14 to spread out.  The owner communicated from the time I booked our stay until we were on our way back home.  Sleeping spaces are luxurious, the kitchen is well stocked to prepare family meals, the game room downstairs was a favorite for all and the choice of sitting spots outside on the deck/porch/ around the fire pit made for such a relaxing atmosphere.  Bellaire is located so that many of the places we visited were just a short drive away.  We also took advantage of local offerings and rented from Paddles & Pedals and ate at Short’s Brewery more than once!  This home is a great value, absolutely gorgeous and we would gladly come back someday!"

"We had an amazing stay here with 9 people across 3 families, and everyone loved it. The house was spotless, super comfy, and had everything we needed. The beds were cozy, the linens were soft, and the kitchen was fully stocked for cooking. Great location, being just a couple minutes from downtown Bellaire (Short’s Brewery, anyone?). The game room downstairs was a blast, and we even got to do some bird watching thanks to all the native plants around the property. Peaceful, beautiful, and just easy. Highly recommend!"

"Our family of 14 spent the Christmas holiday here and it ended up being our family’s favorite stay ever!  The drive up to the house was absolutely stunning and the house itself was simply magical.  We appreciated so much that it was beautifully decorated for Christmas—it really helped make the house feel like a temporary home . The house was immaculate, cozy, and comfortable.  We used the kitchen extensively and it was well appointed.  Rooms were clean and spacious.  There was more than enough room for our big family and the game room downstairs was a hit!  The house is conveniently located between three ski resorts and we tested them all.  (Boyne was a fan favorite!)  We had brought sleds with us and used the back hill to go sledding with our kids while the snow fell.  It was really such a magical winter wonderland of a property and we would absolutely recommend a stay here!  Many thanks to our amazing host, especially for going out of the way to accommodate our special request!!"

"We rented this amazing cabin for our staff planning retreat.  There were 11 of us and we had so much room to spread out when needed and plenty of space for the adults to brainstorm while the kids had space to play and their noise didn't bother us.   The game room downstairs was definitely an amazing bonus!!  We all had a great time down there adults and kids alike.  The rooms are beautifully decorated and the beds were all very comfortable.  Everything spotless and the kitchen was a dream to cook in.  Thank you for the wonderful property.  We will definitely be back again someday."
