Perfect family vacation home

The house & yard was well equipped with everything we needed & was close to beach access. If I return to this area, I would definitely book this home again.

Beautiful home near the beach

We loved our stay in Union Pier at this gorgeous home. It was very clean, well appointed, near the beach, and had beautiful outdoor space that we enjoyed utilizing (fire pit, outdoor dining table, basketball hoop, giant yard). We have stayed before and hope to be back again.

Stunning house/great location!

This was a beautiful rental property equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Our family loved the large kitchen area, living room with plenty of seating and the private beach access was across the street. The owner is very attentive and has thought of every detail. Would definitely rent again.

Great stay close to the beach

This house was perfect for our multi-generational family vacation — enough bedrooms and space to hang out for everyone, a roomy & well-stocked kitchen for cooking and preparing meals, a nice yard for playing, and a private beach just across the street. Brian and Lori were great hosts, replying to questions immediately. There was a leak in one of the bathrooms - a random, unfortunate incident - and they were extremely responsive and got professionals to the house very quickly to address the issue. It was a wonderful stay.

Absolutely phenomenal!

Goodness, we could write a book about how perfect our stay was and the hosts. Everything about it was A+. All 12 of us who were fortunate enough to enjoy a week in July at their beautiful home give them a long standing ovation and our greatest appreciation! If you have a chance to book this home, look no further. We've stayed at many other great ones, but this is the best. Enjoy!

Absolutely exceeded our expectations. Beautiful property in great location with easy access to beach and anything else we wanted to do. The fully equipped kitchen made for easy fixing of fabulous meals and eating outside under the pergala was a dream. Wi-Fi was a bit week but we managed thru it. I don't think that is a property owner issue. Would absolutely stay again if you will have us. :)

Great house - Great location!

We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful house! The house is huge! It offered plenty of room for us to vacation with our children and their children. Lots of fun spaces in the house to be together and separate. The kitchen had everything you need to cook and enjoy family meals together. The location is tremendous! Right across the street from the nicest beach I've been to on Lake Michigan. The house is stocked with everything you need for the beach! The owners couldn't have been more helpful and easy to work with! All in all a great house and great experience! I would definitely recommend renting this house!

Comfortable and enjoyable

This is a beautiful, clean home and our entire family of ten enjoyed our stay. It's just a very short walk to the beach and short drive to many great restaurants and fun things to do. We enjoyed sandboarding at Warren Dunes, antiquing in Three Oaks, pickleball at the high school courts and shopping in New Buffalo. We even took the South Shore train to Chicago to see a musical (It's a quick drive to Chesterton to catch the train with plenty of free parking). The house offers a wonderful kitchen for cooking big meals for a large family, and we could all fit at the nice, big dinner table. There were also plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas to use at the beach. Thank you.

Amazing beach find

Our family had an amazing stay at this house. There was plenty of room for 7 people and the amenities were all first rate. The online photos definitely do not do the property justice; it was beautiful inside and out. There was a very short walk to an amazing beach.

Beautiful Memories

Our family's stay at the rental home can only be described as fabulous! The home is breathtakingly beautiful, and at the same time cozy and comfortable. The close proximity to a nice, big private beach was just another bonus to our time there. The screened porch was a cool and serene refuge any time of the day. We enjoyed kayaking on the Galien River, a short drive away.The home rental included every ammenity imaginable to include beach chairs, beach towels, beach toys and coolers. Our family had a wonderful week here and highly recommend this gorgeous home!
