Peaceful and very quiet wooded location for our weekend getaway! We enjoyed our stay in this 4 bedroom home which was perfect for 9 adults. The kitchen was well equipped and there was ample parking plus a grand firepit!
The home was very comfortable, well stocked, and a nice location that was easy to find. The only issue was that we had a complication with our check in, which was resolved by VRBO and the host.

Our apologies for your inconvenience! We always sent our entry code and arrival information via email and so far never had issues with renters not checking their email. Moving forward we will ensure to send information on both platforms. We hope you enjoyed the rest if your stay!
Stayed 2 nights. Clean and easy to find. Everything we needed. Kids played corn hole, we enjoyed the Michigan summer weather, campfire and s’mores. Would stay here again.
Had a fabulous time with the family, felt right at home. The property had everything we needed for for a perfect vacation
Close to dunes, but had complete privacy.
Hope to come back again soon
This place was great, we all enjoyed staying. The beds were comfortable, good water pressure, nice appliances. Very quiet and peaceful location, I will book a stay here again. I highly recommend this property. Thanks again.
Had a great stay at the cabin with a large group of friends the house was great for what we needed lots of parking space and a nice garage we were able to utilize during our trip. We eill definitely be back.
Cute cottage, in very secluded setting. Large bedrooms, ample living space between living and dining rooms, comfy beds. Very reasonable price. The only drawback we found was the "early" checkout time of 10. Most places are 11.
Check-in process was great, the property owner communicated expectations well. The house was perfect for our family with lots of space for kids to play outside. There was plenty of space indoors to prepare meals and play games at the table. Will hopefully make it back again!
The house was great! It had everything we needed including a garage (to play cornhole) that we could use since it was raining in the evening. I would highly recommend this rental.
My family of 3 + 1 dog had a wonderful stay. The house was well set up with everything you could need and very clean. The wooded setting made you feel “away from it all.” It was great to use the fenced in area for our dog too. It was a short drive to the dunes. We would definitely stay here again.
This is the second time I stayed here it was great. It’s so private and peaceful here and is able to accommodate more people. Will be returning in the later future
