This place was perfect for our girls’ getaway. We picked it because we stayed at a place down the road a few years ago and we love the location - right on one of the best beaches on Lake Michigan and next to a state park. This place was so much nicer than the one we rented before - the pictures and descriptions really don’t do it justice. Everything is brand new!
We ate in a couple of nights and the kitchen was a joy to cook in. There were just three of us, but between the large stove/oven and the Weber grill, you could feed a dozen people easily. There’s a big dining table that seats 10, so we would definitely consider renting it again for a larger family gathering.
The highlight is the beach. It’s wide with soft sand. The water is clear. You can hang out on the sand bars or go into to the deeper water. We walked south on the beach for quite a ways without seeing anyone or without coming to the end of the beach. It’s a short walk on the beach to the north to trailheads into the state park, where there are acres of trails to explore.
The owners provided very comfortable new Adirondack chairs and a fire pit and wood for night time hangouts on the beach. Sunsets were gorgeous and we saw lots of stars. We even saw the Northern Lights!
The beds were very comfortable and it’s a very quiet area, so we all slept well. And there’s a tankless water heater, so we had plenty of hot water for showers.
The owners are very gracious and helpful.
