Second time staying at this home and the overall amenities are great! The hot tub, big screened in porch, and easy walk to the dunes are the reason my friends and I come back. The home is a little run down and instructions for check in/how to take care of and use the home are a little unclear. For 3 it was plenty of space. Would definitely be cramped with more than 4.

We had a relaxing Fall weekend, despite the rain. As others have shared, the only challenging part of our stay was arriving and the confusion over how to get in and find the right door for entry. Also, the 3-point locks can be confusing if you have never used them before. Be sure to check out the helpful diagram provided, for your stay. Once inside, the place was very clean and had almost everything we needed for a family weekend away. Bring your own extra toilet paper and paper towels if you have a bigger group, as only starter rolls are provided. Plus, you might want to bring some baking pans if you plan to use the oven. We truly appreciate that this place is dog friendly, and the ease of renting through vrbo was convenient. Patti, is very helpful and responsive. She answered all our questions almost immediately. There is limited baking and cookware in the kitchen, but enough items for some simple meals. And yes, the house isn't right on the lake, but the walk to get there isn't too bad if you have the stamina and endurance for the walk down and back up the dunes. We have older dogs and one with a bed knee so we decided against the trek down the dunes. But the views were wonderful, after the rain stopped. It's also very close to the busy highway so you hear the traffic and local train at night and early morning. The screened in porch and hot tub are nice bonus amenities. It was chilly at night so the fireplace is a treat too. We would stay here again in the future

This is a perfect spot for a family wanting close access to the beach or a place to relax around a fire and cook out. Our day of arrival was raining and we still enjoyed the hot tub and a nice meal thanks to the screened in porch.

The house itself is huge and can host a large group of people. We loved taking advantage of the hot tub and screened in porch. However, i was disappointed with a few things. The property needs a major deep clean and some tlc. There were quite a few knats, bugs, and cobwebs inside. The water pressure isnt the greatest, but there is almost no hot water. I was really looking forward to the bath tub, but I dont think the water got above 100 degrees. The beds were very clean and soft. The internet connection is almost non existent, it was hard to stream anything, they do have a nice collection of vhs tapes though. I wish they had cleaning products their for us to use, they only had dish soap. You can tell the pics in the listing are probably a couple years old.

The house was clean and comfortable. We used the hot tub daily and the dogs enjoyed the fenced-in back yard. Our host checked to verify we were "okay". We visited other towns so the location of the house was perfect.

Nice location for a family getaway. You can choose to go to the Dunes, Captain Mike's fun park, wineries, or St Josrph beach area all within minutes. If you like an fitness challenge, property is on the road that leads to the dunes trails that end at the water. It was beautiful when you made it.

This house was perfect for our Michigan respite. Great views and special places to relax. We found the door locks confusing but highly recommend this place overall.

Big place, lots of room. Well appointed. Great for dogs. Great location near the state park. Wonderful for hikes over and around the dunes.
