This was the 2nd time our extended family (grandparents, adult kids and spouses, 8 grandkids) vacationed here, and the experience was well worth repeating. House was ideal for our large group, and close access to beach was terrific. Would happily return a 3rd time.

This property is not suitable/accessible to persons with certain disabilities or mobility limitations and this is not disclosed in any of the information provided in advance of full payment and arrival. This is a significant safety issue for certain renters, including members of our group. It is also important to note in advance that cell phone service ranges from poor to not available for those who might rely on that for various reasons. The property is otherwise as advertised.

Perfect size to accommodate our four adult children and their kids and my husband and I. Bedrooms are well situated for privacy and the common rooms are large enough to accommodate us all. Loved our coffee on the front porch with view of the beach. House had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We would recommend to others!

We loved the beach house! Fantastic location -beach almost seemed like private beach - and so close! Our family loved the home. Everything we needed was there. Deer in the morning on the beach and in the evening by the fire pit was an added bonus. We are already planning to return next summer.

Nice home near Lake Michigan with ample room for our 13. Other related family visited for a family reunion during the day, and we all loved the views, the house, and the space (indoors and out). Parking in back was ok (once we found it) and even the older members made it OK over the hill or up the frount stairs to the house. Management tended to any issues very promptly.
