Enjoy spending time together in this wide open space overlooking the water. Get relaxing in the sitting area with a comfortable sofa offering up a place to kickback and unwind, perhaps to catch up with fellow guests you’ve not seen for a while.

When it’s time to eat, the kitchen provides a fully equipped area in which you can get snacks or meals ready for your group. A large oven and stovetop ensure there’s space to cook all kinds of dishes, with all the cookware and cutlery you’re likely to need waiting for you.

THE 3 BEDROOMS
It’s hard to beat the relaxing joy you’ll experience falling asleep to the sound of the waves of Lake Michigan, and then waking up to spectacular views. There are 3 bedrooms in the house, two of which have king beds, with the third featuring 2 x single beds and 2 x double beds. All have top quality mattresses and bedding to ensure a great night’s sleep for everyone. And you’ll find plenty of space to store your belongings, in closets and chests of drawers in each of the rooms.
THE 2 BATHROOMS
The stylish luxury continues in both of the bathrooms, each of which has a toilet, vanity, as well as bath tub with shower overhead, giving you options when it comes to how you get ready for days out (or evenings in!) You’ll find quality towels here for all guests and a selection of toiletries, plus plenty of space to store your favorite gels, lotions, shampoos etc.
OUTSIDE SPACE
An outdoor entertaining area means you can enjoy the great outdoors as well as the stunning interior when you stay here.
Booking this beach house gives you access, via steps, to your own secluded and private stretch of beach on the shores of Lake Michigan. No doubt you’ll be itching to get out on the water. If so, you’re welcome to use the kayaks and paddleboards supplied by your hosts.
For those in your group who prefer to look at the water rather than getting on or in it for a swim, there are joyous sunsets to be enjoyed from seats outside the house or from down on the beach.
REMOTE WORKING
The entire property is served by fast WiFi. There are plenty of places inside and outside for you to sit and get tapping on the keys of your laptop if you have work to do.
PARKING
You’ll discover space for multiple vehicles at the front of the beach house, so you won’t have far to wheel your bags from your cars into the property when you arrive.
