Vacation Rental Description

Welcome to The White Picket Fence on Long Lake.  We'd like to invite 
you to come and stay at this newly remodeled 2400 square foot home 
right on the water of beautiful Long Lake in Traverse City, 
Michigan.  Enjoy your own private backyard with approximately 125 
feet of private lake frontage and have full use of our private 120 foot dock 
for your water toys.  The sandy bottom beach is perfect for children, and adults too!  
The water slopes ever so slightly  The end of the dock (which again is 120 feet long), 
the depth is only about 3 feet.  Many of the homes on the lake are deceiving with regards to depth 
and drop off very quickly.  You may also find they lack a beach area for children to play on.  No 
matter where you rent, make sure to get good photos of the yard and water and ask lots of questions.

Long Lake is an all sports lake covering approximately 3000 acres, or 5 miles long 
by 2 miles wide.  Plenty of room to enjoy your boat, jet ski or kayaks!  The property 
has two new kayaks available for rent as well.  Please ask about them if you 
are interested.

                     This home is strictly a 
                    no smoking, no pets home 
                    so please don't even ask.  

Please email me and ask for a complete Snapfish Photoshow of the entire house, room by room as well 
as the yard, private beach and dock!  I'd be more than happy to send it to you.

This is our personal home used for family gatherings and summer 
vacations so please know that we take great pride in it and hope 
that our visitors will too. This is our second year owning it and 
we decided to rent, not because we have to, but because it's ashame 
to let such a wonderful home with an incredible view and so much to 
offer, go unused for a great portion of the summer. From our many 
years of travelling and renting homes along the way, we have picked 
up a few ideas here and there and are implementing them in our home 
to hopefully make your experience, one to remember.  You'll arrive 
to a sparkling clean house with beautiful fresh sheets on each bed.  
You'll find basic supplies like a fresh new dish sponge, eco-friendly 
dish soap, eco-friendly laundry essentials, paper towels and toilet 
paper.  In the bathrooms, you'll even find a fresh bar of soap in the 
showers and soap at the sink.  Truly your home away from home!

Activities and Attractions

There is so much to do here on the lake or in the general area.  
Maps and brochures will be left in the home for you to review. On 
the lake you'll enjoy fishing, boating, jet skiing, swimming, 
sunbathing or just plain old relaxing. Sleeping Bear Dunes National 
Park is always a favorite spot and don't forget to bring your 
camera. There's plenty of places to take a leisurely nature walk or 
for the adventurous side of you, why not try a hot air balloon 
ride?  Traverse City is only minutes away where you can hit downtown 
and meander through all the little shops or stop by the Grand 
Traverse Mall for some shopping, a bite to eat or even take in a 
movie.  If you're travelling without kids, why not spend the day 
wine tasting or head over to the Casino. So much to do or just relax 
and read a book.  It's your vacation, you decide.
