Silver Lake

The property was exactly as described. Communication with the host was simple and clear. When I booked the property I had not noticed the lack of cleaning fee. Guests have the option to save money by cleaning up after themselves or paying the host to do it. The host managed this misunderstanding with fairness. I enjoyed our stay and I recommend this listing.

Jon was so sweet and helpful with providing all of the information needed prior to arriving. It really helped me plan my family's vacation. My family of 10 stayed here for Memorial Day weekend. It is the perfect location! Just a few minutes from Craig’s Cruiser's, Lake Michigan and the Dunes. We had a blast all weekend. Tons of stuff to do for all ages. Thank you Jon! We will be back :)
