We had a relaxing time. Beautiful views of Union Lake from inside the home and deck. The house has everything you need for a good time. We rented a pontoon from Chris which allowed us to get on the water to swim instead of right off the dock. We enjoyed playing pool and kayaking. No major issues during the stay.

Rustic Hills Retreat was our chosen spot for our annual girls weekend. We didn’t have the best of weather so a lot of time was spent inside. There was plenty of room and things to do for the 8 of us. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. Owner was very helpful and quick with responding to any questions we had.

It was a cute place that worked out for what we needed for the weekend. Very relaxing and loved the ability to use the kayaks even though we didnt have much opportunity to use them.

Michigan Vacation This property suited our needs well. We had a senior occupant who was able to shower easily with the step through tub. She could enjoy the top level easily. My husband and I enjoyed the basement and the amenities it had to offer. We also really enjoyed the kayaks. This lake was very quiet the whole week. We were able to kayak at our leisure. It is a rural area which is what we were looking for. The only knock on the area is the local grocery store has been purchased by people who price gouge. There is a dollar general in the town and a grocery store in Colon, which is nearby. The host was very accommodating. We enjoyed the ease of our stay. We would recommend this place of you are looking for a quiet visit.
