Sep 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome beach getaway Everything about this property is great! So close to the beach, cozy, rustic atmosphere, tons is space for large gatherings. Only downside is the internet is very slow and there’s almost no cell reception for Verizon, but I’m staying at the beach to unplug, not stream movies, so it was great. ##### Zachary E.

May 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect weekend escape Nice lakeview house hidden under trees. It has everything for comfortable stay, clean and very nice looking. Big deck with grill and table and enought chairs to stay outside. Lots of parking. Stairs to the beach adds some fitness activies to that long weekend lazy time. And as usual lake Michigan is awesome. We will be back for sure! ##### Taty N. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven P. Sep 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Batchlors trip Very clean property with Plenty of amenities. The fire pit by the beach was huge hit and just being able to go down to water whenever you want was excellent. We had a few people in our group go for a dip although the temperature of the water was quite cold so it was more of a polar plunge. Great way to wake up in the morning though. Only things that would have been nice additions would have been faster internet, and some shampoo and toilet paper. all in all it was an amazing stay and nice way to enjoy my brothers Batchlors party. ##### Steven P.

Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family reunion I appreciate an honest description! This home exceeded our expectations. The pictures were spot on and did not make the home look larger than it was. It might even be roomier! Good advice to bring fans even though our weather was perfect it was nice for sleeping. We loved the separate homes for our large family giving us plenty of room. The grill was the only thing that didn’t work. ##### lynnette n. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erika C. Oct 18, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### One of the best views and location My cousins and I had a great time last weekend. The property especially the backyard view was very beautiful. The only suggestion I have though is to make sure to disclose the dog fees and how many dogs they can bring on the listing and the agreement(s) we need to read and fill out after booking the property. Internet was slow as well, so don’t expect to watch videos uninterrupted. The heater was also not working in the living room, but the property manager sent someone to fix it right away. Overall, we had a great time and would love to come back especially if it is available for summer. ##### Erika C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana M. May 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious well maintained cabin with wonderful privacy! The cabin was more spacious than the pictures showed for sure! There was plenty of room for our three families to spread out in the home and dine at tables. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dishes and glassware. There was only the basic sheets, one thin white towel and then cover blanket for the bed. It was chilly at night in the spring and it would have been nice to have more blankets. We only saw one fan, so I would pack more of those in the summer. The towels were bare minimum and we were glad we brought beach towels from home as well as a solid pile of dish towels to use. The steps to the beach were sturdy and cleared well, though plenty of poison ivy nearby on the bluff to watch for later in the summer. The grandparents have old knees but made the trek up all the flights many times with the sturdy hand rails and rest benches along the way. Beach was pretty quiet despite the neighboring public park. The place was as clean as you could expect for a dog friendly beach cabin. We washed some of the chair covers to brighten it up a touch. Wifi, cable and appliances worked nicely. No cell service on any of the carriers which was lovely! ##### Diana M.
