We enjoyed reconnecting over some local pizza and board games at the spacious dining table. At night after beach time we unwinded watching basketball on the nicely sized TV in the living room. We were there for the first frost, but were still able to have good walks during the day, especially with the beach being so close. The location is perfect for any season. ##### L M.

Jul 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house with all the basics for a Lake Michigan beach holiday My family & I stayed 3 nights. Perfect location & an easy 1 block walk to the beach. 2 BR, 1 BA downstairs, same upstairs. All beds were covered in plastic w/microfiber sheets, which we found to be overly warm. Upstairs: the 2 beds up there are pretty soft & it’s warmer up there, even with a window unit in 1 of the bedrooms. Fans were available. Basement has nice washer/dryer, foosball table & other couches for hanging out. Various board games were available. Advice: Bring your own beach chairs, beach toys, floaties, etc. Beach towels were provided. If you intend to cook (like we did) BYO spices, oil, aluminum foil, Ziploc bags, etc. Kitchen pans & food storage containers were minimal. No broom, household cleaner, kitchen towels/dishcloths, or laundry supplies were to be found during our stay. Front/back door codes can be a little tricky, ask for explicit instructions when checking in. ![Unbeatable Lake Michigan views.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2708f4a5-138d-4e82-bd09-091da3664510-1751389150225.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Chicago off in the distance.
