Great lake house

We had a very nice stay at the Irish Retreat. The house was warm and cozy for our stay in December. We were welcomed by Christmas decorations including a Christmas tree. What a great touch for our stay near family for the holiday. We had great communication from the owner and every thing was perfect. Thank you Todd for being a spectacular host. We would recommend to anyone and would definitely consider staying again.

Peaceful, zen-like perfection!

This property and host was exactly what you might imagine from the photos. My best friend and 6 days here to relax and destress from life’s curves. The peaceful waterfront provided ample views and a natural backdrop to help us unwind. The super clean, homey decor allowed us to relax and enjoy. And if there was a question, the host was on it! Definitely a returnable location. Thank you Irishman’s Retreat for allowing us to experience your little slice of heaven! 🍀🍀

About the host

Why they chose this property

We chose this home as we had looked for years up north for a home. To many homes were on top of each other and had no privacy. We picked this home as when we are up there while there are neighbors around, they are far enough away that we feel like we have our own lake. The bay that the home is in is extremely quiet. Homes are very spread out, and while the privacy is great, Alpena is only about 20-25 minutes away. This town has an amazing downtown and lots to do. The up north charm of downtown is hard to find. Not to mention that Lake Huron is only around the corner (10-15 minutes max).

What makes this property unique

The home is not a "cottage." It is a home. Everything you love about up north, but updated for 2024. Fast internet, technology, but the privacy and views that we believe are unmatched.
