Jun 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fun Escape! I grew up about a mile away from the property and the trip was booked last minute to attend my grandmother’s funeral. Given the somber nature of the trip, all the features of the property (the swing set, the game room, the spaciousness of kitchen/family room/ and bedrooms) really gave us an escape. It gave the kids a fun place to play. It gave the adults a place to decompress. It was truly an excellent property. ##### Eric C. Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelly T.

There is a guest guide with house rules and listings of local stores and activities. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates, pantry items, etc. The game room over the garage has a ping pong table and other games, and is a fun hang out spot. We enjoyed our family reunion here and have no complaints. We would love to come again. ##### Shoaib R. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ELAINE B. Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Visiting family over Christmas This property was perfect for our family! We stayed over Christmas visiting family who lives in the area. House was very large and well equipped. We cooked several meals onsite and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! Plenty of space for a large family. The house was separated into 2 areas which was perfect for us with multi-generation needs. One side was cozy and quiet and had a nice ability for quiet and privacy if necessary. It was very cold so we weren’t really able to use any of the outside amenities but it looked like a great place to visit to see the Dunes in season. We would definitely come back and re-rent for a family vacation. ##### ELAINE B.
