This was our first time experience utilizing the cottage and the family gives it a solid thumbs up. The listing description is accurate and would recommend the cottage to friends and family. We especially liked the location to the private beach, WI FI access, and local access to restaurant and attractions. Thoroughly enjoyed visits to the local wineries, distillery, Chicago Cubs game, St. Joseph Farmer's Market and the numerous variety of restaurants.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children.
Owner response: Thanks so much for the 5 star rating. I am glad that you could appreciate our family cottage as much as we do! Hope to see you next summer. Lori

This was our first time to the area and we will go back. The cottage was perfect! It was clean and there was a small play structure in the yard for the kids. There were also beach toys and chairs available. My kids loved rinsing off in the outdoor shower after the beach. The decks were great for relaxing on and it was a short walk to the beach. We had a great time and thank you for sharing your cottage with us!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Hi Michelle, Thanks so much for the review . We are so glad you amd your family had a great time! Regards, Lori and Brian

Thank you Brian and Lori for a lovely place. We rented the house the week of July 23, 2011. The cottage was exactly what we had hoped for and expected - clean and comfortable, with everything precisely as advertised on VRBO. Our only surprise was a good one: we had forgotten how close the house was the to beach! We recommend the cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable place in Union Pier.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.

A friend and I rented this cottage together with our children, and it was fantastic! The house is beautifully maintained, inside and out. Every room was well decorated and very clean; the kitchen and the bathrooms were especially nice. The yard was full of lovely flowers; the front and back decks were very inviting, and the kids enjoyed the play structure. I would definitely recommend this cottage, and I hope that we can return. The listing and the photos were accurate: this is a charming family cottage within easy walking distance to a great beach. What you can't tell from the listing, though, is how personable and helpful the owners are. They are very available, and they seem to have thought of anything we could need, for the house and for the beach. Thank you, Lori and Brian--we hope to see you again!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

Thank you Lori and Brian for a lovely stay in Union Pier. The house was wonderful, the location was perfect! All was super clean and quaint. It was the perfect size for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids. We loved being able to walk to the private beach and the playscape and fenced yard were a HUGE bonus. We would recommend the house to anyone.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 4/4
