Its private beach remains quiet as public access is over a mile away and it is next to a farm and golf course that do not have access, leaving an expansive quiet beach for you to enjoy with your family. The private beach is just 100 stairs down to the water from the house, there is a bench half way down if you need to rest! There are beach chairs for you to use at the beach along with an inflatable paddle board! The grill at the house is charcoal! This is a pet friendly home! (SMALL DOGS ONLY) There is no air conditioning in this property. This home features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed and bedroom 2 has two queen beds. This home is all main floor living with a large living room with view of Lake Michigan! The outdoor area at this home is great! It features a large yard, in ground trampoline, outdoor furniture and charcoal grill! The sunset views from the bluff are amazing. Barbecuing and watching the sunset makes for our favorite dinner location, but the Old Channel Inn right down the road is a close second. This home has an occupancy of 6 people maximum and is monitored closely. The towns of Montague and White Hall are picturesque with small town charm offering many breweries, restaurants and shops to explore. The Band Shell Tuesday night concerts are always a good time. Michigan Adventure, Lewis Farms and the Double JJ Ranch (Indoor water park, back 40, golf course and restaurant) are all less than 20 minutes away. Just a little further is Silver Lake Sand Dunes. Old Channel Trail Golf course is a short walk down the road. This is a beautiful course that is typically not very busy. There is a boat launch to White Lake 1 mile down the road off of Lau. This is a great place to launch jet skis or a small watercraft.

Sep 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Views. The place was just as advertised. The views were amazing and sunset is breathtaking. We will go back for sure. ##### Keith P. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Thomas O. Sep 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A few days at the lake We were looking for a pet friendly lake front property for a few days break before school started. It was quiet, peaceful and had a great view of Lake Michigan. The kitchen was well equipped and overall was clean and comfortable. After we booked we received the detailed pet agreement to sign. The listing said "pet friendly" without details. The agreement specified a size limit which our dog exceeded, and we were to pick up after our dog. We had to phone the property manager to clarify it was ok to have a larger dog. Upon arrival we found several dog droppings outside we cleaned up so we would not be charged. The property is showing signs of wear and tear with loose flooring, pet stained carpets, furniture scratches, and dented appliances, which is why I gave a 4 star rating.....good but not perfect. There is a nice sandy private beach, but it takes 111 steps to get there, which was in the listing. Overall, the beds were comfortable, it was quiet and relaxing. We would book again. ##### Thomas O.
