My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights. Bill was easy to communicate with when I had questions about the property. While it rained most of our stay, we did get a chance to walk down to the beach/fire pit area. With plenty of seating and flat rocks laid out as a walkway, it would've been awesome to have a fire. Wifi worked great and we were able connect to the TV for music and movies. Out of the 3 bedrooms, we chose the one facing the lake. The bed was comfortable and I loved being able to look out to the lake in the morning.

Washington Island is so beautiful; one must stay for several days to enjoy all the local flavor and friendly folks. This house was perfectly located on the bluff overlooking the lake; a beautiful sunset every night, perfect spot for a campfire near the beach; Comfortable beds and windows that let the fresh lake breeze blow through. We highly recommend this wonderful home!

The views from the house and on the beach were amazing! Unfortunately it was pretty windy when we were there so we didn't get to enjoy a fire on the beach. The house was comfortable.

The view, deck, and beach area are spectacular. The well-constructed stairs down to the beach were very impressive. Beds were comfy and the bathroom was updated. Plenty of room to spread out. If you’re sensitive to smells, there was a musty odor that needed to be aired out. I’m sure in the summer, when the house is occupied and opened more, that probably isn’t an issue. The kitchen and original parts of the house are quite old, but appliances were newer. A unique property with a really nice outdoor area.

The property was as advertised and Bill was easy to communicate with. The home was older but it had everything we needed. The location was secluded and had a nice walkway down to the rock beach. The nights were cool and the heat worked great and it was very comfortable. As advertised, you must bring your own bed linens and towels. Note that this also includes kitchen towels. The area was nice, Washington Island is a great place to visit. We took the ferry up to Rock Island which was fun. It was less than 10 minute drive to the ferry from this location. It is also located close to popular Schoolhouse Beach and multiple restaurants.

This is a great little space! Pictures provided are accurate. The private beach area is wonderful any time of day— we enjoyed our coffee sitting in the provided chairs and listening to the waves every morning. We used the charcoal grill a couple times and had dinner on the deck almost every evening. We had had stunning sunsets and a couple of evening storms that made for some wonderful pictures with the cloud formations. A couple things to note — while the kitchen is decently stocked with cookware and utensils there are is no cooking spray, herbs and spices for grilling etc. so bring from home or be prepared to stop at the grocery store in town.There really isn’t a lot of Tupperware for storing leftovers in the fridge either, so keep those things in mind if you like to make meals at home while vacationing at VRBOs like we do. Also, don’t forget hand towels for the kitchen and bathroom as no linens are provided. (It’s stated, we just happened to forget those smaller towels) While there is no air conditioning there are fans to use in every room to keep air circulating. Overall, this is a beautiful, quiet space that we would stay at again.
