INSIDE: The lower level features a family room complete with a wet bar, queen sofa sleeper, flat-screen TV, game table, and a full bathroom.

It is always a most enjoyable stay and the home allows out large family (9) to be together. Over the years, as BVW Unsalted Vacations has managed the property, it has become better and better-many updates throughout the home and it is always so clean when we arrive. Management is very friendly and accessible from booking to throughout the stay. The location, within a short walk to the beach, and easy access to shops and dining, is a real plus, too! We will return again and again!" Timothy M. ​​​​​​​ "The house sits up on a hill with a view of Lake Michigan and is very spacious. There are plenty of bathrooms for everyone. They had everything you would need for your stay and had great communication about everything you would need to know for check-in and out. The portal is a very nice feature to have and it makes it easy to find things to do around the area. The house overall was great and everyone enjoyed staying there!"
