We stayed for 3 nights 11 of us very comfortable. We enjoyed the game room and hot tub. The only thing was that the trash can was 1/2 full so by Sunday it was overflowing. Not the Hosts fault… the beds were very comfortable! We would definitely come back to stay in the future!

The place is very deceiving from the outside. Once you get inside it is so much bigger and up to date. Very nice place. The only thing I was disappointed about was that the floors were dirty.It even stated on the papers at the VRBO that the cleaning people do a light cleaning. Floors may have been vacuumed but they definitely need a wet mopping (swifter). Wear slippers or your feet will be black.

Super clean house, easy check-in and check-out, great location and great value for the price! Towels - including beach towels - and sheets included was awesome - don’t always get that. My only suggestion would be that the open kitchen/dining/seating area as well as the TV room could use a table lamp or standing lamp as the overhead lights are very bright. Also the loose block on the sidewalk along the driveway needs to be secured. Great house, though - we had a great time there!

Great for families

The home was beautiful and a great space for our group of 10. There was lots of room to spread out and the kitchen was great and well stocked for lots of meals at the house. We loved how close it was to the beach and visited every day sometimes twice.

Stayed with family on our yearly get together. Plenty of room for the 7 of us. The place is very clean and what you see in the pictures is what we actually got which was nice. Attentive host, great you can walk to the beach, and plenty of space to relax and chill. Would stay again.

The house was very nice, but it had some minor problems, like the shelf in the refrigerator was off track, causing our food to fall through I was scared we was going to break it so because it was so unstable, the shelf that holds the glasses was not really stable either so we bought paper cups and plates so we didn't have to touch the shelf. The bathrooms were perfect, and all the living areas were very comfortable for my family and me. The rooms were very clean, and there were enough beds for everyone

Nice home layout and location

We had a nice time and the proximity to the beach was great. Communications with the host we’re good. The hot tub and furniture are getting some age on them but it all worked. The kids loved the ping pong and fooseball tables.

Miller Beach

The house is in a wonderful location to the beach. It is a short walk on quiet roads to the beach. My family and my two brother's families enjoyed the week immensely. Even with the weather in the 70s, we were able to enjoy time in the water and on the beach.

Closing summer

It was our 4th or 5th year at Miller beach area and loved as we did in previous times. First time at this house and we really liked. Good location (close to the beach), the house was very comfortable, with plenty of space. We were a combination of adults, kids and one dog.

Lovely Miller Beach home!

This home was a five minute walk from the beach and we enjoyed amazing sunsets everyday! The layout and amenities of the home were perfect for family to meet and spend time together, both indoors and out. Our dog enjoyed the fenced in yard immensely. This is the second property that we’ve rented from this host-she’s great and very responsive.

As Advertised!

Everything advertised online in the description about the property is accurate. Great home for the family to spend the week. Can hang out inside or out. Walk to the beach is 5 minutes and not much beach traffic making for a relaxing experience. Will definitely look up this place again for our next trip to Lake MI.
