We had a wonderful stay! 4 kiddos, 4 parents, 2 grandparents. We love Mary. Kids loved the pool and big basement and we all loved the beautiful backyard. Easy drive to the dunes and lake and many other things. Highly recommend.
This very nice home, located in a secluded spot, was perfect for our large group, with comfortable sleeping quarters for all. We especially enjoyed the spacious fenced yard with multi-level decks, fire pit, and heated pool. Home was very clean; kitchen was well equipped with dishes, cooking utensils and a number of coffee-making options. Another bonus was plenty of extra towels and lots of pool/beach towels.We will be back!
The house is so nice, clean, organized and cozy.The basement was a plus we were not expecting.The host is increadible helpful, nice and polite.I would definitely come back
This was our second stay here---the best value for your dollar in the area, hands down. Beautiful property, right by the state park and quick drives away from New Buffalo and St. Joseph. We love it here.
Great house in a quiet private location. The house is very spacious and has every thing. The pool is great in a fenced yard with a big deck. We enjoyed it so much and it was perfect for our family.
We had a wonderful stay and it was very relaxing. Got to use the pool which was great and enjoyed the peace and quiet. As always, communication with the owner was impeccable and we will back soon!!
This is a great property! Comfortable, relaxing and close to loads of restaurant, shopping and Warren Dunes. We really enjoyed the pool, the quiet and the location. We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. This is our 3rd trip there. We will definitely be back!
Wonderful pool, clean house that was well stocked with all the things a family would need. We were so close to so many great spots and would come back in a heartbeat. Mary was wonderful - thank you!
We had a wonderful stay. The house was well appointed. We enjoyed the pool. It was in a great location for our bike ride, beach/dune walk, and apple picking.
Lovely property! I imagine the big draw in the warmer months is the pool, but we had a great time inside and out even in the cooler seasons after the pool was closed. Excellent location to a number of great areas. Very well-stocked kitchen, and very clean and sanitary condition overall. Would be happy to stay here again!
This was our second summer stay at the house—enjoyed it immensely again. Layout is great with plenty of space, the fenced yard is so nice for our dog, and we enjoyed many afternoons in the pool. No issues at all with the house, it’s a wonderful place to stay.
Spacious house near the lake and dunes. Pool was great! Large fully fenced in yard was perfect for my dog. House has everything you need. Would stay again.
