Awesome porch!!!

The property was great for our stay! The overall cleanliness was a 3 on a 1 to 5. First step coming into porch was a loose board and there were comments on that in the guest book in 2018. There was also a large muddy hole in the driveway which was pretty unavoidable with 2 cars. Also comments on that in the guest book. A little TLC could help but overall I still give it a strong 4. We thoroughly enjoyed our time.

Not great for the price

This place is fine if you need a place in the area. It was mostly clean, the bathroom could have used some attention. With the astronomical cleaning fee and them asking you to wash all dishes before you leave (which we do anyway), you would expect the dishes you pull out of the cabinets to be clean, they were not. The price of this place for what you get is way out of line. I've stayed in this region dozens of times and have found way nicer places with functional a kitchen for less. We were disappointed.

Much needed family getaway

We had a great stay. This property gave us plenty of room for our five adults and two children. The two grandparents stayed in the loft apartment over the garage. It was like a beautiful treehouse. The rest of the family had adequate room in the cottage. Both places were amply stocked with cookware, dishes and glasses. Loved the large yard and fire pit !

Great Family Time at Lakes/Dunes

We enjoyed our stay and time at Lake Michigan. Lindsey was helpful in helping making everything enjoyable and clean (even with COVID-19 making things more complicated). We enjoyed many days checking out the lakes and dunes. Came back and thoroughly enjoyed the nice outdoor shower and ample lines for drying suits and towels). A few family favorites included the campfire and making s’mores and memories, the great yard space for the kids to play, and we loved sitting on the screen porch enjoying coffee and time together. Thanks for sharing your home with us-we enjoyed it very much!

Great Long Weekend Getaway

Wonderful property, easy walk to the beach, perfect for our group of 6 adults and 3 toddlers. The combination of a 3 bedroom house and a studio carriage house allows for so much flexibility. We would love to return.

A great place for a lake vacation

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It's easy to get to the lake, the years is great for grilling and campfires, and the kids enjoyed the games provided in the house.

Nice but somewhat neglected

First the good news: We enjoyed our stay in this house. We loved the screen porch, the yard, and the fire pit. The houses and living spaces are fine. There are adequate linens, lawn and beach chairs, other useful outdoor items, and working appliances. The signs of neglect: decayed plywood platform outside of the garage apartment, a hole dug in the yard that we had to put a lawn chair over so that we didn't hurt ourselves by stumbling into it, a very disorganized kitchen, and a living room chair with vinyl upholstery that sheds like crazy. We liked the outdoor shower. About half the windows have screens. It's a great location in the Michigan fruit belt and near good beaches, but just know what you are going to get for your money.
