Clean cute little cottage in a great location! The town is pretty quiet this time of year (fall) and not a lot of businesses were open. Would definitely visit and stay again in the spring/summertime!
The house was perfect, from cleanliness to location (maybe 1/4 mile to the ORV entrance of the dunes). We had three adults and a 9 year old, and we all loved this rental.

We only stayed on the property overnight, but it clean and very, very cozy.
The cottage was in a great location. We were there to hangout with friends but if your looking to hit the dunes in an orv then your just seconds from the entrance.
We have stayed a few times now and love the house. It is a great place for small family and pet friendly.This was the first time staying for more than a long weekend. Only recommendations would be to have cleaning supplies (maybe even a vacuum) available in order to clean sinks bathtub... during a longer stay. We will look to stay again as we still have not bought another camper and come to Silver Lake multiple times a season.
This house was perfect for our our stay. Close to dune entrance and very nicely updated. Only slightly negative was propane grille was quite dirty. Tried to clean it as best as possible and did work out ok.Overall the stay was great we will book again if in the area.
This cottage is very cute and in a convenient location super close to silver lake! It was just right for our small family and our kids loved the bunk beds. The cottage had all the household supplies you could need as well including the propane and an easy to use grill. It was a little loud on the weekends because of proximity to the ORV area but during the week it was much more quiet.
I have stayed in a ton of vrbos and airbnbs over the years and i would return to this one in a heart beat. Excellent home, location, and price! Its the perfect dune home. Nothing fancy but very clean and well kept. Enough room to park our 28ft enclosed trailer. We sat outside and watched the traffic go by every day. Cant say enough good things about this place.
This was our second year staying in the cottage for our vacation and we were again very satisfied with our stay. The cottage and bedding were clean, the beds are comfortable, and the property was stocked with almost everything we needed (no blender but my salsa verde still turned out good). The property is in a prime location to enjoy the dunes and Silver Lake's activities. I only had one question during our stay and Brooke responded promptly. We will continue to utilize any properties available from this host that meet our scheduling needs.
The house was clean, and exactly as described. Perfect location for us right outside the ORV dune entrance. Road out front is busy, but that is to be expected given it's location near the dunes entrance, and we came to this location to ride the dunes anyway, so we didn't mind. My 5 year old loved to watch all the off-road toys drive by when we weren't out riding.
Cottage is well stocked with kitchen essentials, the grill came in handy for cooking meals. Bathroom towels and bedroom linens were fine. Cottage was comfortable, the only reason for the 4 stars is because no matter how much febreeze or spray I put on the couches, I could not get over the smell of wet dog. If it weren’t for that, it would have been and excellent stay, as the location to the dunes is very convenient.
Great location and sleeping arrangements, with all the necessities for a week/weekend away. I would definitely stay again if we go back to Silver Lake Sand Dunes.
The cottage was clean and appealing, the kitchen was stocked with necessities, and the location was perfect for our purpose at Silver Lake - to play in the Dunes. The backyard was secluded and the neighbors were very friendly! It was the perfect home awaybfrom home. Definitely recommend!
