Quiet and beautiful spot near Lake Michigan
We had an amazing stay at this quiet and beautiful spot near Lake Michigan. The location was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what we were hoping for. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the cleanliness was truly excellent. Communication with the host was great from start to finish. We will definitely be visiting again.

Great place for families
We had a lovely time, the house is in a great location and we loved being outside by the water. The property has kayaks, bikes, games etc and we loved that too.
We enjoyed listening to the waves from the 3-seasons room and sitting out in the beautiful yard. The adventure shed was a nice touch with fun things to explore. House was clean and had everything we needed for a nice stay. Lovely property!

Great location and very peaceful backyard with beautiful Lake Michigan view!
The place is beautiful and the Lake Michigan view is perfect. Very nice and peaceful place to spend time with family. Host is very clear with instructions and was very responsive. Tons of great sports equipment and games. Bicycles are amazing and lots of variety from small to adults sizes. Great time!
It was a very peaceful stay at the lakeshore - just you, sound of waves and flying birds! So relaxing for the soul! The house is immatucular: very clean and very well equipped and supplied! The place where you want to come back!

A very clean cottage with great views.
This property is very clean with several outside areas, including a modern playground. We had a very nice time with great views of the lake. The three season porch was used often since we managed to visit at lake/may fly time (they don't bite, but do swarm). We look forward to visiting again in October.
-Outdoor Shower (only available in the warm season) -Remarkable views of the lake and lush greenery -Tucked way back in the woods on a dead-end private road -Totally remodeled interior that is super clean and fresh
