This was our second time staying at this property. It was clean and just spacious enough for our family of four. The best part was the short walk to the private association beach!

Our family of four loved this hidden gem. The house was the perfect size and very clean. We loved how easy it was to access the private beach. Albert was extremely helpful answering our questions. We’re already planning to come back next year.

The place was really cute. We had some issues once with the Internet but Albert responded quickly. The only thing that I was not prepared for is the 3 flights of stairs to get to the beach. Getting my wagon and cooler up and down there was not fun. Other than that we had a great time!

Surprised that we were expected to bring our own beach towels (finding out upon arrival is not cool)
absolutely responsive to storm related internet outage.
easy lovely place. Nice people (owners not a management company).
would welcome using it again if I were ever to return.

Third time staying here for a girl's weekend, and it was just as great as before. Easy walk to the beach down the street, and centrally located to so many attractions a few minutes' drive away. This cottage is so well-maintained, with lovely landscaping and outdoor space. Inside space has all we needed. Thanks for another great stay!

This rental is as advertised. Quiet area with adorable homes and cottages. Beach area is bigger than expected.
Thanks for allowing us to stay in your home.

We stayed at this property for a little beach getaway. The property was as described just the right size for our family of 4. The best part was definitely the private beach access. The beach is beautiful and uncrowded. Even on the chillier days my kids enjoyed wading in the water and looking for rocks. From the duplex, it is a short 5 minute walk to the beach!

Clean updated house. The outdoor space could use some sprucing up. The chairs and hammock were pretty dirty. The house is actually divided into 2 units, but only one side is rented out. It doesnt say this in the description so it took a bot to figure out the entry situation. The private beach was great, but there is no parking, so pack light. Overall, it was a nice, quiet weekend and the owner responded quickly to my questions

I didn’t realize until after I had booked the property and read deep into the reviews that this is actually a duplex and you will share the yard & property with the owners. It was clean for the most part - extra care could have been taken to get more spiders out & the grill wasn’t cleaned out for us to use, so we didn’t. The walk to the beach was a bit farther than I expected, as well as several stairs, so be aware of that as well. When we stayed over July 4th, many of the neighborhood people who share the beach would leave their chairs & “mark their spots” on the beach. It’s not the biggest beach, so this was a bit of annoyance - I grew up on Lake Michigan & have gone there every summer & this is the first time I experienced that. Also, plan on spending an extra night’s worth on fees & being forced into insurance. After all that is said - it was a nice enough getaway for my daughter & me to stay pretty close to Lake Michigan.

Water / beach was great. Bring a wagon for your kids/gear and a short walk is a breeze. Eat breakfast ever morning at oaks eatery in three oaks, best breakfast ever. House seemed clean and we loved the washer dryer. but bring a fire stick, the Roku device is very slow. Good vaca spot for kids and on a budget.

This was our second time staying at this well-equipped, wonderfully-located property. The host is super responsive, and as bonus, the back deck and outdoor space are lovely. We'll be back again!

We enjoyed our stay at Albert’s property for a long weekend getaway from the city. The unit was clean and modern, and in a great location just a short walk from the beach and a quick drive to most amenities!

Trip to the beach was a very short walk, and a association beach access was great. Not too crowded The house had everything we needed, and having on-site access to a washer and dryer was a HUGE plus.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved the cute neighborhood. Quick walk to the beach, so we went there every day! Great place for kids and adults. It was also really nice to have a washer and dryer in the unit. Excellent outdoor space for grilling and hanging out. Lovely garden on the grounds. Hope to stay there again next year!

It was a short walk to the beach, but a long walk back. My kids 4 and six loved every minute of the place. We spent most of the day at the beach . The house had everything we needed for a short get away. My one suggestion would be larger trash bags , it felt like we were constantly taking out the trash.

We had a wonderful time! Our kids loved the private section of the beach. The house was nicely appointed, very clean, and a short walk from the private beach access. The streets in the neighborhood are all stone, and those with a lot of beach gear may want to bring a wagon, but you'd probably want to leave it at the top of the stairs down to the beach. That said, we had very few complaints from our little ones about the walk.
We would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed my birthday weekend! Albert was a great host and answered all questions quickly. The walk to the beach wasn’t bad, even with two small children. There are about 50 stairs down to the beach so keep that in mind if you have any mobility issues (we Carried the 1.5 year old without any concerns). Overall the duplex was very clean, quiet, and well appointed. Would definitely stay here again!

We hung out most of our stay at the private beach. Yay! We appreciated the minimal amount of people around. We had the beach to ourselves several times. Inside, air conditioning worked perfectly on a humid day. We stayed inside only briefly since the beach made us all so happy. The rental came with about everything we needed. Loved the spacious bathroom and its large shower. My only stew is small things that can quickly improve. The grass could have been mowed...sorry, my husband struggles to relax outdoors unless the grass is nicely groomed. (Kids may be the real culprit of that struggle). 😂 Lastly, some insight for visitors with kids…we each had quite a bit to carry to spend all day near the water. The walk was about 7 -10 min. Maybe bring a portable wagon to carry your cooler, chairs, shovels, etc., as the walk is a little lengthy for going back constantly; I’m 47, maybe not a gripe for 20-somethings. I didn't see anywhere to park a vehicle, but we are average health, so we toughed it out by walking. There is a locked gate to enter the beach, which is nice. I’m a lightweight; I got a little too exhausted to haul stuff after throwing back some Lake Life beverages. It was a good time! Thank you!

This was a great location for the area and the interior of the house had a lot of charm and was well laid out. Communication with the property manager was very easy and he was very responsive. Walking distance to a local cafe. We enjoyed our stay.

Myself and two friends stayed at this house over a weekend for a wedding. It was the perfect location for us, very close to the venue, and had just the right amount of space for the 3 of us. The owner was very helpful and pleasant to message with and left very nice information at the house for us. We had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay!

This cottage was the perfect place for my husband, 21-year-old daughter, and I to unwind. Just 5 minutes walking from a private beach!! We spent most of our time hanging out there, reading and taking in the gorgeous lake. We also were close to places in New Buffalo and Three Oaks to dine, as well as Warren Dunes and Silver Beach for a change in scenery.

Wonderful cottage with everything we needed for our relaxing vacation: very nice and super clean, comfortable beds, a nice kitchen, a good shower. The private beach is just a short walk away. The yard is shared but it felt like we had it all for ourselves. We greatly enjoyed having tea on the deck facing the yard. Albert is a great host, very friendly and helpful. Hope to be back next year!

We had a wonderful stay! The property is exactly as described and worked well for our family of four. We spent most of our time at the beach, which was perfect! Even with a 5 and 2yo, the walk was no problem. A wagon was perfect for towing the "stuff" and there was a place to park the wagon at the top of the stairs. Even my 2yo managed the stairs with a hand hold so we could carry all the stuff in one load each time. The beach was never over crowded and very clean. We had a wonderful time and hope to return!
