We could not have been happier with our stay. I wish I could give it 10 stars!
First, the location. Hart is just far enough from larger cities to offer a perfect setting to relax and unwind without being too far from popular tourist attractions. The dunes, state parks with historic lighthouses, go karts, rollercoasters, and even a petting zoo are all within a 30 minute drive. As for Hart itself, it offers a beautiful lake suitable for kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing right across the street from the property.
The property: we loved it. It was spacious, comfortable, clean, and authentic - it did not feel like a rental property. Rather, it felt like a home. This was due to the owner's efforts to think of everything. You really don't need anything but a suitcase of clothes to stay here. From bikes to lake equipment to little things like beach towels and premium shampoo, the hosts went above and beyond to make sure nothing was unaccounted for. They went so far as to provide printed directions to the best places to launch a kayak into the lake across the street. In addition to the watercraft, the owner provided beach towels, folding chairs...even sand toys!
The hosts: it feels inappropriate to refer to the property owner as a host - she's more like a friend. Quick to respond to inquiries and very responsive - our host was genuinely committed to our satisfaction.
My family and I are already planning our next visit to this wonderful property for next year
