Should have read the description a bit closer. Thought the home had a view of the beach. In reality, it is in a "bowl" in the woods. Must walk up 75+ stairs to get to the top of the dune and the gazebo, and then down another 75+ steroids to get to the beach. Granted, the beach is very large, nice, and private. The gazebo use really not usable, not does it have any nice furniture in it. Needs a lot of work. House was not very clean (we swept up an enture dustpan of sand upon arrival, huge spiderwebs and cobwebs everywhere). Air conditioning did not work. Feel like we were overcharged. Most times we actually go look at the home before renting and we did not do this for this property. Learned our lesson. We had a great time as a family, but really desired to be able to spend time on the deck, eating meals etc. In view of the beautiful Lakeshore.
