    Although we enjoyed staying in this house for a week, the house had enough problems with it that we were disappointed, especially considering the cost. We really enjoyed the location of the house, on a dead end street, quiet neighborhood and bordering undeveloped duneland. That kept our rating otherwise higher. The VRBO page provided inaccurate information. The house is not 'right on' National Park Lands-those are .3 miles away. Lake Michigan views from the house are very limited by trees in adjacent City park land. VRBO maps are very inaccurate for this house and we could not determine the exact location until after committing to rent. House is not 'beachside' but a 520 yd. walk through hilly soft sand to the beach. We had problems with the house. Could never get most of the TVs to work-complicated reprogramming. Rainwater leaked in through a closed/locked door in a bedroom flooding part of the floor. Drains in the top bedroom sink and jetted tub were clogged. There was filth/food/dirt in parts of the house (such as under couches). Air conditioning was preset to automatically come on and we could not reprogram controls Loud water kept repeatedly cycling on and off in a bedroom wall shared with the adjacent Carriage house and it pushed us from that bedroom. Hosts could of helped, but repair visits would be intrusive. Info did not mention curbside recycling and that a good supermarket 2 miles away. We just expected better for the

    Biggest complaint is no good view of the lake and way too far for several of us to walk. The stairs were also an issue but I knew that going in as it was clear from your pictures and description. The air show that we were able to see from our deck was an added bonus. The house was VERY well stocked on supplies and set up well with location of bedrooms.

    Fantastic house in proximity to the beach. Great weekend getaway.
    10.0 / 10.0
    We stayed for the weekend in this beautiful, spacious home. We absolutely loved the ability to walk out the back gate to Lake Michigan and Marquette park. We also hiked at Indiana dunes. The multi level house is like none we’d ever seen before. Beds were comfy, and home had all the supplies we needed. It was a relaxing and perfect Fall family weekend!

    The home was just as it was listed. The host staff was fantastic with working with us. The house was very nice and had all the needs you need
    6.0 / 10.0
    Good: number of rooms, variety of spaces available, layout of house, amenities (hot tub, sauna, steam shower, bath tub), location/proximity to lake and dunes, distance from city, quietness of neighborhood, easy check-in and check-out process. Okay: amount of soft seating in common spaces, especially the two couch rooms. There wasn't enough soft seating for 8 adults, and we rotated who had to sit on the floor. Hot water setup on showers is cool in theory, clunky in practice. The strings that you pull to let the hot water out were broken or didn't seem to work. There were not cleaning or laundry supplies provided, so we went out and bought our own. There was a review that mentioned that some of the house was run down, which was true - it wasn't wild or unusable, but there were sections of the bathroom wall that were unfinished, a radiator with broken vents, etc. There was also some mysterious clanging/banging that happened every night while we were there. I'm not sure if it's the pipes or an HVAC system? But I sleep like the dead, and I still woke up every night around 3-4am (as did the other folks.) As a heads up to folks looking at the property - the sauna is quite small. We fit two adults comfortably. Bad: This listing is for a Miller Beach Vacation Rentals property - it is a corporation using VRBO as an advertising platform. Miller Beach requires a LOT of personal data to use the space- SSN, photo ID plus a selfie, and more. I've used VRBO and Airbnb numerous times without the same requirements, and frankly, I live in Chicago, and I've rented apartments with less. When asked, however, Miller Beach Vacation Rentals does NOT have their own privacy policy or data protection. After inquiring a few times, I was finally given the privacy policy for VRBO (which they don't even use to communicate with travelers.) This experience completely turned me off from MBVR and any vacation rental companies in general, and I'm now on high alert for fraud and data breaches. The space DEFINITELY does not sleep 27 people! We had 8 adults, and I wouldn't recommend any more, except maybe 1-2 children. There are cameras around the property and sound monitors inside, and while we weren't throwing a wild party or doing anything beyond watching movies and going in the hot tub, (we were there for our annual relaxing friend reunion), it still put a damper on the weekend and it was hard not to be hyper-conscious of them.

    Location to beach was excellent, almost like a private beach. Vacation house was more worn and not as big as pictures lead you to believe but still plenty of room for all. Surrounding area ok but not great, getting to the place was disappointing at best. Really enjoyed Indiana State Park and great local walking trails Tons of sand, be ready.. House hold amenities were plentiful but again many of the appliances were quite worn out from use. Hot tub and deck area nice, pretty views but again some chair arms broken. House was very clean and beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels, pillows and blankets. Washer and dryer worked well. One of the showers leaked into the lower level closet located directly below. A sign was posted in the closet area warning us of the problem but did not see it until water appeared in the closet. The house comes with a lot of rules, so be prepared. Overall our family made the vacation work. We love getting three, soon to be four, families together to celebrate anniversaries (3) and birthdays (3). Great family memories each time we vacation together. We go to a different place each year, so will not be returning to The Main House Resort at Miller Beach but we do give it our recommendation.
