This is such a beautiful spot, right on the beach! We have two kids and it makes it so easy to be able to walk out the door and be on the beach. Amazing patio and gorgeous view!
With the forecast of strong Aurora chances we headed north hoping to catch the northern lights. This would have been a great spot had the Canadian wildfire smoke not moved in. The stay was very comfortable and we had all we needed.

The beach is a short walk away and is beautiful and private. The house was a perfect fit for the two of us. The sunroom was warm during the day but the rest of the house was very comfortable. Close to plenty of things…hiking, zoo, food, groceries. Thank you!

We had a fantastic stay! The location was perfect, just a short distance from the beach and the nearby state park, which made it easy to enjoy the beautiful scenery and local spots. The home itself was cozy, peaceful, and ideal for relaxing during our downtime. The host was great with communication and made sure everything was smooth for our visit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

My family had a great time there for the weekend. Even though it was unusually cold that weekend and we couldn’t swim we still played games, played baseball on the beach and went to Chicago for a day.

I wanted a place to take my mom for her 70th birthday along with her 2 friends and a couple family members. It was a cute/quaint location and we all had a very cozy stay. Being right on the beach was ideal and the house had plenty of space and beach supplies to enjoy a lovely weekend for her birthday. We even spotted a baby deer and her momma! Would 100% come again.
