Great rooms, kitchen, bathrooms and outdoor spaces. We had a great time. Would have really liked a king bed in the downstairs bedroom (the space is big enough) because our kiddo climbed in bed with us…he was scared in basement bedroom… but it was a really beautiful place (nice outdoor eating area and screened in porch).

This property was not only simple and easy, but I felt it was the most effortless experience Everything is simple and organized with a minimal feel but lacking nothing. Games for the kids , kitchen well appointed and easy to use. The beds and pillows were heavenly. Great communication with the owner who was helpful and very pleasant.

Beautiful home. Splendid location. Perfect home for a family gathering and vacation. Wonderful, warm, responsive and caring hosts.

Ed and Sara were great communicators before and during our stay. Their home was wonderful for our group of 10 (6 adults and 4 children- ages 2-6). The outdoor covered patios were great component on one of the rainy days. Walking to the beach was a solid, but feasible 15 minutes for our crew. The place was in great condition and had plenty of amenities that we could utilize for cooking, grilling, beach, etc. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, spacious, and updated nicely. Thank you for the accurate listing information. The decor was top notch. Cheers!

Dear Ed and Sara, We hope this note finds you both in good health and high spirits today! We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your incredible generosity in allowing us to stay at your breathtaking Lake Michigan beach home. Our time there has been nothing short of magical, and we are forever grateful for the cherished memories we created with our children and grandchildren. They have all left now and it is just us too so we have heavy and full hearts but we will buck up and shake it off for the next couple days. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beauty and tranquility of the surroundings and these gorgeous woods behind the house. The pristine sandy shores, the fresh lake waters were amazing and we spent endless hours building sandcastles, splashing in the waves, and basking in the sun. These moments were truly precious, and they brought our family closer together in a way that we will never forget. In addition to the incredible natural beauty, we were also deeply touched by the opportunity to reconnect with dear old friends during our stay and be part of Kim Bruns and Doug Nightingale's wedding at Weko beach and pavilion . The long conversations, hearty laughter, and shared experiences added an extra layer of joy to our time at your beach home. It reminded us of the importance of nurturing relationships and how they can be rejuvenated by spending quality time together and playing board games and sharing conversations.

Great property that will not disappoint. We have rented multiple properties in SW Michigan and this one was outstanding. Large well designed newer home in a perfect wooded location and only a short walk to Harbert beach. The large great room, screened in porch and nice size bedrooms provide room to spread out. Bottom line….great newer property; comfortable; great location; pricey; should be considered more of a three bedroom as the basement room is a big compromise for anyone drawing the short straw.

We had a nice and comfortable stay to get together with our friends and family. We enjoyed the shaded outdoor spaces for a campfire and the kids to play in the yard. The huge tables were such a treat for our group meals together. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and the beds were cozy. We used the basement for kids sleeping and there were plenty of flexible sleeping options to arrange the kiddos as needed. We had a wonderful time.

We had family travel to Michigan from various spots across the country to spend a few days together, and this home provided just the right setting for us to be able to have quality time with one another. The living area and screened in porch provided great spaces for us to eat together, play games, drink coffee, etc. We also had a guest in a wheelchair and she was able to navigate around on the ground floor. Everyone was able to sleep comfortably in the 4 bedrooms, and we utilized the pull out couch as well. We were able to get to travel St. Joseph for an evening in just over 20 minutes. We also spent some time in New Buffalo, which took us about 15 minutes. We had a great day at Warren Dunes State Park, which was just down the road. We loved the local coffee spots, bakery, meat market and brewery, all within 5 minutes. We took several walks to the beach and around the neighborhood to enjoy the beautiful sights. It was fun to explore! Sara and Edward were great hosts. They were accessible and made sure we knew we could reach them at any point throughout the stay.
