"Very beautiful house. Just enough space for everyone to spread out. The walk to the beach was a little hike, but the beach felt private and was well worth it. "

Very beautiful house. Just enough space for everyone to spread out. The walk to the beach was a little hike, but the beach felt private and was well worth it.

The property was wonderful. So many amenities that our team loved! The sauna, proximity to the beach and the two kitchens were highlights. It was clean and well-maintained.

We had a great experience at the lake house. Everything was in great condition with all the amenities we could have asked for. Plenty of space and plenty of rooms for family of 12. The master bedroom was absolutely breathtaking. The host company was very responsive and help to make our stay comfortable. Would highly recommend!

We all just loved it here, all the beds are very comfortable, everything is in good working order. Communication with managers was prompt and easy. We would have appreciated an orientation book, to minimize hunting for first aid kit; we didn't find it until the end of the last day. There is one or two bathrooms that have no towel racks, so door nobs had to do. We also thought the check in early and check out late fees were way too high. Also it is very important to make sure you obey the strict parking rules, since street parking his forbidden. Understood! We'll most likely stay here again for sure.

We recently rented this home for our church's women's fall spiritual retreat. This stay for our group of 21 ladies was more than we expected. We chose this home for its size, proximity to the shore, and great accommodations. Upon our arrival we were pleasantly surprised to find the house had been recently updated. It was absolutely beautiful...bright, serene, and peaceful! The cleanliness of the home was great! The attention to detail was appreciated. I love a well stocked kitchen and this one hit the mark. We had everything we needed, even two crock-pots that came in handy. There was plenty of extra bedding, folding tables and chairs for our group. Communication with the property management company was superb throughout our stay. All and any issues were quickly discussed and resolved. We had issues with the air mattresses holding air, within hours we had new air mattresses delivered. The hot tub blew a breaker while we were using, the service technician was there within the hour of our call, and kindly explained how to avoid that happening again. Thanks to their camera system, they even let us know when we inadvertently left our car doors open outside, after bringing items in. We even had the honor of meeting the owners of the property during our stay. Their welcoming and gracious spirit were as beautiful as the home they shared with us. Every lady that left our retreat remarked on what an amazing time we had. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!

With the exception of one bathroom being out of service and nearby location being a little sketchy everything else was a great place at this beautiful house.

Management responded quickly to all questions. It was a nice spot that worked well for a group of couples with kids. Nice to have a beach area in back to Play volleyball. A nice walk through the dunes to a nice big beach on Lake Michigan.

We had 17 people-11 adults + 6 children (7yo-15yo) The house is at the end of a quiet, established residential neighborhood. The pros-The house is clean & comfortable. It has enough beds for all of us, 2 full kitchens, 2 laundry areas, a picnic table style kitchen table we all fit around. The house is well equipped with bath towels, linens, & kitchen supplies to prep & serve 20+ppl. The “penthouse” is a suite-bedroom, bathroom, sauna space on top level with an amazing view of the lake. The back deck has a grill, firepit, and hot tub-all worked without any trouble. The sand volleyball court is well maintained w/ soft sand-volleyballs & sand toys on site. The path to Lake Street Beach is a short distance thru sand & dune vegetation, then a paved path. The beach is awesome! Communication with host was wonderful-Hilary & her team always responded quickly and were attentive to our needs. The cons-There are no ramps between the 6 levels of the home-just stairs. There are no bedrooms or bathroom on the “main”level. One full bathroom is currently out of order. You must go thru the “pass thru” bedroom or go around outside to access the 2nd kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and the penthouse. Several of us got chigger bites along the path to the beach. The vrbo photos show this house in its best lighting/staging/angles. We were slightly disappointed at the actual lot size & interior spaces. Without hesitation, I would recommend this house for a large gathering 🙂
