Finding a solution for more than your own family can be challenging - especially when there are teenagers involved, but this truly was perfect for us! There was room to spread out, we could gather together when we wanted and have our own space when needed. The teens loves the weights and the rec area. We all loved the fire pit and close proximity to the beach. I especially appreciated how all of the household needs were supplied: foil, baggies, spices, etc. cooking on vacation with a crowd was easy in the beautiful, well-stocked kitchen. Mark thought of everything! This truly felt like a ‘hidden gem’ - we can’t wait to come back! I say ‘hidden’ because we can’t believe we didn’t find it sooner, and it’s ‘right there’ - close to everything! ##### Regina H. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul J.

For the last 12 years, our family has rented a vacation home on Lake Michigan to spend a few days with our very close friends from Chicago. Our custom is to go in the middle of summer or early fall. This year, we decided at the last minute to go over Memorial Day weekend. Our dear friend, the one who organized our first Lake Michigan vacation, is dying of cancer. She wanted to get together one last time. We needed everything about this weekend to be worthy of what it could come to mean to us in our memories. Thanks to Mark and his home, it exceeded all of our hopes. This house was the best house we've ever rented. That's the truth. It's big and had something for everyone. The three kids (10, 12, 17) had a ball in the game room and playing video games. We cooked dinner in the marvelous kitchen both nights and enjoyed roasting s'mores (complements of Mark) around the fire at night. We made the 2-minute drive (or the 20-minute walk in my case) to Saugatuck. We stayed up late and slept in later and filled every minute in between with fellowship and fun that will go down in family legend. Mark made it all happen. He not only booked us at the last minute, he bent over backwards to make every part of our stay special. Whatever we needed, he was a text away and accommodated us to the best of his ability. No VRBO owner we've ever encountered seemed to have a better feel for what we might need or want before we even knew we needed or wanted it! We will be back! ##### Brad I.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amber A., Devon, Pennsylvania Aug 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful host, great location and layout Mark is pretty much the most thoughtful host we’ve ever had: great communication, s’mores for the kids, and wine for us after cancelled flights led to an impromptu 12 hour drive. Everything was exactly as described or better and the layout was great. The office space in the master bedroom and good wifi provided peace of mind for inevitable work emergencies, not to mention space to watch a movie without bothering kids. The property is lovely, peaceful, and only a 10 minute drive to Oval Beach and 5 minutes to Saugatuck down residential streets. Parts of the house were a little dusty but that seems to be from recent renovation. We would definitely consider staying here again! ##### Amber A.
