About this property

Kick back at this modern forest house, nestled at the front door to Grand Mere State Park. Only a 90-minute drive from Chicago! Surrounded by Lake Solis and forest scenery, with ample privacy, this home (built-in 2022) can accommodate large groups. Enjoy sand dunes only a minute away from Lake Solis while sun pours into the enormous windows. Featuring 4 bedrooms (7 beds total) and 3 bathrooms, up to 12 people can be accommodated.

Enjoy creating a campfire outside in the dedicated brick firepit before relaxing in the meticulously maintained 7-person hot tub / spa on the patio. Or, cool off indoors with full A/C watching the large TVs (75” downstairs, 55” upstairs).
Like to grill? No problem: on the patio there is a Weber ready to go. Want to cook indoors? A full kitchen awaits you.

Have some work to do? The loft floor master bedroom features a dedicated work area with laptop stand, HDMI monitor hookup, USB printer, and office supplies.

Bad back? The king beds in either master bedroom feature adjustable bases so you can prop up your spine to the perfect position!

For the pool sharks in your group, there is a 7-foot pool table upstairs with enough cuesticks for a 6-person game.

Extra people can be accommodated for sleeping on the two leather couches in the living room.

Security camera disclosure: Two cameras. One at the front covers the front door and parking area, one at the back covers the back door and patio (camera is angled such that it does not capture the hot tub at all)

Great 1 week stay

The house was great, and communication with the host was superb. We really appreciated the easy checkout process. The hot tub is very nice. The kids managed to catch a few small bass at the lake nearby, which was even nicer than the pictures. The smaller kids loved to play in the sand at the back of the property. We really appreciated the new cornhole and toy throwing axe sets that were provided. There were plenty of towels, soap, and shampoo. Warren Dunes and plenty of restaurants and breweries are within 10 minutes of the property. We had a great stay with our extended family.

Dune beach summer stay

What a unique and quiet location! We celebrated our daughter's 16th birthday here with some friends. They had plenty of space in the bunks, loved the hot tub, and enjoyed chatting around the large tables over breakfast and dinner. There were plenty of things to do within the house to keep them busy, between the pool table and board games, there was plenty of laughter. It's a short drive to the beach and be prepared for a 15 minute hike over the dunes, but the beach is so worth it as it was absolutely beautiful. There was plenty to do within a short drive, between Kayaking in St. Joe's and dinners in New Buffalo, lots of activity in the surrounding towns for kids, teens and adults. Sahar was so responsive and helpful whenever we had any questions about things to do around town or about the house. I highly recommend!

Great social space

Great property for having a group of young adults together for a fun weekend. Hot tub, firepit, giant TV, grill and patio, pool table- perfect for hanging out. Close proximity to dunes and beaches, though it does require driving. Note that the "beach" within walking distance is not Lake Michigan, its a small lake with sand on its shore. 5-10 minute drive to excellent Lake Michigan beach access.

About the host

Hosted by Sahar

Why they chose this property

As part of the new Lake Solis Community development, this house is one of a small handful going up around Lake Solis, a small lake which lies in a forested, sandy area about 1.5 miles east of Lake Michigan.

While the house is completely new construction, the location's natural environs is a well-preserved time capsule of the midwest lake ecosystem before human intervention.

What makes this property unique

This location combines modernity and a natural environment: perfect for large groups in which some may be willing to explore the forest, lake, or make a fire, but others might prefer to stay inside watching HBO, Prime Video or Disney+, or play a game of pool.

A robust A/C system keeps you cool in the Summer, and heated concrete floors will make sure you are comfortable in the colder months. A large patio with a grill and outdoor furniture invites entertaining, and a circular brick firepit lies at the edge of the property, where the forest meets you, so you have a place to enjoy a campfire.

The kitchen is fully stocked with bowls, dishes, and cooking items so you can make lots of food for your party.

We are proud to say that our internet is very fast for being in a remote area (125-200 mbps).
