We’ve been visiting this area for years and this property has it all. Beautiful clean cabin, incredible view of the sunset over the lake, and gorgeous beach. Highly recommend!

Great location, beautiful private property and beach. The futon was not very comfortable as a couch but overall it was very nice.

A beautiful, welcoming space for meaningful family time. Steps away from a gorgeous beach. Friendly and very responsive host. Extremely clean. Totally charming decor and updates.
The listing notes a washer. I believe that applies to one side of the duplex, but not the other. Reach out to host if that aspect is important to you.
We really had a wonderful getaway at this magical space.

We had a great weekend getaway. Maria met us when we arrived, showed us around, gave us suggestions for restaurants and nearby attractions. The cottage was great! It was fully stocked with everything we needed!! There was a short walk to the beach with outstanding views. There were beach chairs, umbrellas for guests to utilize and a great common area for campfires. We absolutely enjoyed this place!

My family had a great stay at the Donner’s cottage! It was perfect for us and had everything we needed. We loved the view and the private beach was awesome. Maria was super helpful and responded to our questions right away. Thank you for letting my husband and I have great quality time with our 5 kids(ages 22 to 10). Lots of fun memories created during our stay!

Fantastic location close to shopping and restaurants. Host was very helpful prior to our stay and during our stay. Spot on with cottage photos. Great yard for family campfire, picnic, and outdoor games. Beach chairs and foam boards provided along with private beach access. Our family of 5 adults and a17 month old had had a fantastic week! Thank you!!!

Mark and Maria could not have been better hosts. Communication before and during our stay was prompt and helpful. Inside was immaculate and included a very well stocked kitchen. Outside had numerous table and chair options where we ate the majority of our meals. Every morning we walked the beautiful beach and every night we were provided with a beautiful sunset. Our whole family will have fond memories of our stay on Lake Michigan because of Mark and Maria - Thank you so much!

We enjoyed our weekend at Thunder Dune. The property was exactly what I had in mind and the beach was beautiful. So many fun things to do in the area, even when the weather doesn’t cooperate. Would totally rent this place again.
Thanks again!

This property is so peaceful, nestled in the trees, but beach access available. The kitchen is stocked with everything you would need to cook at home and with a view like this, why would you want to leave and go out. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely go back!
