The Loft Master bedroom with hand-hewn log queen bed has its own balcony overlooking the valley of maples to the east and the loft itself has the incomparable view of both dunes and Lake Michigan to the west. Attached to the master bedroom is a master bath with a glass tile double shower with inlaid mural. The dressing room/closet has its own hand-painted autumn mural. The Golden Dunes cabin sits on 26 acres of beautiful woods and a meadow and through the property we have made a NATURE TRAIL. It is well marked with an ART HUNT. The ART HUNT is a series of landscape art pieces to be discovered on the trail. Children, and, of course, adult children, love to spot the art pieces. If you think you would like to enjoy this activity, please request that we send you the ART HUNT attachment that gives directions, explanations, and photos. There are 2 main floor bedrooms. The Flora and Fauna room has twin beds. The top shelf in the closet is full of family-oriented games, cards, puzzles, and toys for your entertainment. The Quilt Room has a double log bed with a single bunk above with the quilt theme throughout. The main floor also has a full bath with a massage shower and a vanity sink. All towels and linens are furnished. Great room and full kitchen finish the main floor. There are French double sliding doors out to the large deck. The main-floor bedrooms and the Great room have satellite TV with DVD and VCR. The entrance level has a 2-1/2 car garage, fully equipped laundry, and an entrance room with storage that includes water toys and floatables. The entrance room includes a small library closet with adult and children's books for your enjoyment. An inflatable raft for your use is in the garage. There is a lovely Nature Trail throughout our property. It is divided into two loops: a much longer one to the left as you enter, and a shorter one. This trail is well-marked with painted red circles outlined in yellow and takes you to all areas of the 26 acres. Feel free to explore the hills, woods, and meadows. You are free to hike, cross-country ski, or snowshoe on the full property. There are other interlocking trails, that are wider, not marked, but easy to walk. So, for more adventure - follow the marked trails; more leisurely - stroll the wide-mowed trails. An outdoor grill and plenty of seating on the large deck are provided. The laundry room has broom, vacuum, and other cleaning supplies you may need throughout your stay. An open sand area is great for children playing while adults enjoy the view or s'mores over the fire. Please never cut living trees. There is plenty of downed wood on the property. The fire pit also has plenty of seating in a great open area to enjoy evenings under the stars.

The property itself is different from what is pictured. Trees in front getting tall and starting to obstruct the view. Landscaping not like pictured. Getting very weedy and scrubby.

Very obvious that the owner is an artist. It was enjoyable to just walk around and look at and enjoy everything. The property is just beautiful and everything was well stocked in case you forgot to bring anything. I was dismayed to realize I had only brought a USB cord for my phone and no charger, but she had the foresight to have one on the table to use while I was there! There were kind and considerate touches like that all throughout, such as a picnic basket with supplies and so much more. Thank you so much to the hostess and most definitely highly recommend! ##### Kelly C. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth S. Jul 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Happy family get-together It was a beautiful property, extremely clean,comfortable, and and wonderfully decorated with art by the owner. The kitchen was well-supplied for all of our needs. The location was extremely convenient for us to get to Hart, Pentwater, Silver Lake, and Stony Lake. The only disappointment, and we knew this before we got there, is that it was not as close to Lake Michigan as we prefer to be. Sunset viewings and casual walks on the beach needed to be planned, as the ease of doing so is not just a minute away. Again, we knew this, but it is just something that is really important to us, and we missed that. Overall, it is a lovely place and highly recommended for those who don't have that desire to be closer to the lake. Thank you for sharing it with us!. ##### Elizabeth S.
