Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Vacation! We had and amazing time staying at this location!! It was a perfect sized cabin for us and our two little boys to enjoy a week on the lake. :) The cabin is easily accessible and within walking distance to Mac Woods and The Whippy Dip, which was a wonderful vacation benefit. The cabin had all the amenities you would need for the week! If I had to put into words the minor downfalls, I would say the outlet in the bathroom did not work, and the bathroom sink is crazy small, the main screen door did not slide very easily and needs adjusted, and parking with trailers is tight, but the view and location make up for it! We will definitely be renting again! :) ##### Erin W. Stayed 9 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kari N.

The cabin was roomy and well stocked. The location was perfect. My two granddaughters loved swimming right in front of the house. The beach was lovely. The only negative is the old small, tiny toilet. The toilet is quite frankly miserable. If the toilet is replaced I would rent there again without hesitation. ##### Julie H.

The back bedroom flooded and all of shoes and bags were soaked. The cover on the bed then was wet due to the water on the floor. We did not have any access to a dryer.

Jul 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great week at Silver Lake The cottages on this property are clean and well-maintained. There was a minor hiccup with the trash from the previous renter but I texted the owner and it was handled straight away and was not an issue. VERY responsive owner. This property is at the SW end of Silver Lake, away from the hotels resorts and sand dune rentals. So, it’s much quieter traffic-wise. Neighbors were very friendly, and the distance to food and ice cream (critical) is short. My wife, our son and his girlfriend (in their 20’s) we with us and the rear cottage was the perfect size for us. I caught numerous perch, a few bluegills, a bass, two small walleye and a large sucker with a bobber and nightcrawlers off the end of the dock. That was a nice plus. All in all, I give this a 12/10, no real down side or negatives for us at all. Very good week (Saturday to Saturday in the rear cottage). ##### Scott F. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 25, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice but basic Loved the Silver Lake area. Rented a pontoon and spent the day at the sand dunes. Shopped and ate in Pentwater, a fun little town area with cute shops. There was lots to do and everyone was friendly. About the property: It was not that clean. Cobwebs everywhere. It was very surface clean only. I wouldn’t turn on the floor fan because it was simply filthy. The sheets and towels were plentiful and clean. Bed was alright, too. We really could have used lounge chairs or at least adjustable chairs. We were the only property without lounge chairs I noticed. The small beachfront was picturesque and serine. There was supposed to be a bit of sand going down to the water but the water level was too high so we not able to go in with our pups. The tv is small although we didn’t use it much anyway. This is a tiny home but it’s adequate for two with pups.’ ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michelle B. Aug 14, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Lakeview cottage Major water intrusion that the host was aware of and did not warn us about. Clutter around the side and rear of building. Sliding screen door does not work well. Interior doors do not latch. 1 partial roll of toilet paper provided. Dishes and linens and outdoor furniture were adequate for needs. Ultimately we are very disappointed in this rental and in VRBO for allowing hosts like this to continue to ruin vacations for families. I will sending a longer response, but you should not allow this man to continue to rent his properties until he makes repairs. I would have give 0 stars if this platform would have allowed it. ##### Michelle B.

We especially loved that we were able to bring our pups with us! It really is a great location - walking distance to Whippy Dip and Mac Dune Rides and so close to Lake Michigan and the Silver Lake Sand Dunes. It was not clear ahead of time that renters would be sharing beach/lake access with the other cottage renters, but that worked out fine for us, as the other renters were very friendly. Would definitely recommend this cottage - "pet friendly" rentals are the best! ##### Amanda C. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### TIM R.

Been coming up 51 years rented multiple properties would go back and rent both cottages on this property!! ##### Cheryl K. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica L., Camden, USA Jul 5, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Location is amazing! We enjoyed our week at Silver Lake. It was nice to park our boat out front all week and not take it in and out of the water. Swimming is right off the dock and shallow enough for kids. Excellent view of the dunes! We would book this again with the cottage up front as well with family. Thank you for a great week! ##### Jessica L.
