The property is very clean and nicely decorated. The furniture is in great condition and the double door walls offered a beautiful view of Lake Michigan. A very peaceful, quiet property on a private street. It was perfect for my family of four and we really enjoyed our stay.

Our family of 5 was welcomed into this home in the lake with a clean tidy and comfortable place to stay for a full week stay. I had messaged them to ask a question and was replied to quickly and was very pleased how accommodating this family is. No issues whatsoever. We highly recommend this rental for any getaway. The sunsets are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much!

Nice property on Lake Michigan. House clean. Plenty of room for 2 adults and 4 kids. Plenty of games and movies. I assumed there would be beachfront and there was not. There were steps down to the big rock retaining wall but not easy access for kids to swim. Overall nice cottage and enjoyable stay.

Nice place to stay. Beautiful view of the lake. Had some ant issues and both lake side slider doors and screens need attention. Hard to open them and screen doors would come out of the tracks. House Temperature was ok but would be challenging if it were very hot weather due to no air conditioning in the house. Overall a nice rental just needs some updating.

Hidden Gem

The view is beautiful from the cottage and we enjoyed the area with all the local things to do. I think Silver Lake and the dunes is a hidden gem.

the grill was not clean and had no brush to clean it with so we never used it. We'd have liked to see the way of entry as we are both in our 70"s and the stairway was very difficult. ( Stroke survivor with partial right side paralysis). All else was very enjoyable.

On the lake

Well, we loved our stay. Right on the lake,enjoyed the 1 mile walk to silver lake beach. Luckily, it wasn’t too hot no AC, but they have fans. We enjoyed the location and the home. We would stay here again.

Stunning Views

We had a girls' trip to celebrate a friend's retirement and had a blast! The sunsets each night were incredible. The environment so peaceful and restful. The house was well-stocked and perfect for our getaway. Hope to return soon!
