Home is just as described and pictured. Lake Michigan a short walk away..you are truly with nature at this place, wild turkey and deer are abundant. Neighbors were friendly and didn’t bother us at all. New grill for you to use and the kitchen is equipped well. Make sure to bring some firewood for some great family conversations around the fire at night!

Good location, very nice home, had everything we needed.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2023
The house was very nice. The set up worked perfectly for us, as we had older kids with us and they took over the basement area. The private beach is absolutely beautiful, but you do have to walk down, and back up, about 75 steps to get there. We had people with us that couldn’t do the steps, so we ventured up to Mears State park several days. The location is less than 15 minutes from Pentwater one direction and Silver Lake the other direction. I would definitely stay again, especially if we had a large group again.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2024
There were lots of small issues that I wish I had known about before renting (which if I had it to do over again I would pick a different cabin).
Some of the issues we had:
We only used the 3 upstairs bedrooms. I would not want to stay in the basement, it is uncomfortably damp, buggy, and has evidence of mice in many places (not to mention a dead mouse on a glue trap when we arrived).
The water in the house smells strongly of sulfur. There is good filtered drinking water on tap at the kitchen sink.
There is a combination locking door knob on the basement door that isn't set up, and a note on the door saying not to close it. My boys didn't see the note and closed the door. We couldn't get downstairs. There was a key in the door that didn't work. I texted the owner, but after several hours I got frustrated and jimmied the door.
The DVD player on the living room TV is broke and there is no other way to watch something on it
The lock on the back sliding door is broken so you lock it with a hunk of wood
The vent fan in the primary bathroom is broken
Many of the lights, switches, and outlets are finicky. You have to wiggle, reflip, or adjust them to get them to work.
The gas fireplace is turned off for the season
The owner writes in the house's binder that if you have issues you should contact her and not leave a bad review, and also texted me the same thing. I would do that if there were only a few issues, but this place just seemed like issue after issue.
