Waterfront Home with Spectacular Lake Michigan Sunsets

Stayed here several times. Always a great experience.

Great architecture, view and amenities. House cleaning had a couple of slip-ups such as left over food left in oven, dishes in dishwasher and sand between the sheets. the last one made us feel kind of dirty but sense we ate out all except breakfast snacks the other two neglected issues were of no consequence. Oh we saw close encounters with two bald eagles and Pileated woodpecker. Sun over the water is phenomenal!

We had the privilege of staying at this house for 6 nights in mid-August 2025, with 4 adults, 2 toddlers, and an infant. The home was spectacular- the view was amazing, the house was impeccably clean and decorated, and all essentials (and more! were thoughtfully provided by the kind & responsive hosts). Check in/out was easy.The division of the rooms worked out great for our families, and there was plenty to do for everyone. The kids had a wonderful time both indoors and out, spending time on the beach searching for their favorite rocks, wading in the water, or inside playing games & bird/boat watching. The outdoor space was great, between both the large multi level deck and patio area, there was plenty of room to enjoy the spectacular weather. The beach is right outside the house, but do note that it is a very rocky beach, not the most ideal for wading or swimming, but we all managed just fine. I would say the only (minor) drawback to consider is if you or someone in your party has mobility challenges, as the spiral staircase can be tricky to navigate, along with the climb up & down the beach. These are very clearly outlined by the host in the pictures, so it isn’t a surprise. The host has done a lot to mitigate any potential tripping hazards, like stair grips, automatic lights outside, and motion sensor night lights inside. Overall, compared to our other experiences with house rentals up north, this is by far one of the best. We’d be thrilled to rent it again.

Great experience
