We recently had a fall break family reunion here and loved our experience. We came from 3 different states and encompassed 3 generations, ranging in age from 10 to 72 years old.The place was very comfortable for everyone. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was a lovely place to prepare a meal - and we cooked a lot.The kids loved the beach access, and we spent a lot of time down by the water (before the weather turned cold and stormy). We also really enjoyed the outdoor seating areas - the view is wonderful. Communication with the host and property manager was very smooth - they were very responsive to any question we had.Only 1-2 very minor complaints, which are far outweighed by the great experience we had. Highly recommend!

Khris, thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're so glad your family had such a great time together and that the house worked well for all three generations. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the kitchen, the beach, and the outdoor spaces. Fall is a beautiful time of year in SW Michigan! We're always looking for ways to improve the guest experience, and following your stay, we're upgrading all of the smoke detectors in the house to models with 10-year sealed batteries to prevent a low-battery chirp from disturbing future guests. It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we'd love to welcome you back sometime!

This house rental was my family's favorite rental by far. We have rented for the last 5 years in the New Buffalo area but this house had it all. This house and outdoor property had great views of the spacious backyard and the private beach which was only 30 steps down from the house. Our host was always available for any questions and concerns we had while we were there. Actually, my family is considering renting this home again next summer!!!! It was the best!!!!

Beautiful property! Can't beat the view and private beach.

We enjoyed this beautiful home and guest home on Lake Michigan. The outside backyard area is positively delightful. The kids loved the beach and playing ping-pong in the finished basement. It was the perfect place for an extended family (grandparents, children, and grandkids) to have a long weekend.

Relaxing Stay

We reserved this beautiful beachfront home for our annual family reunion and it was perfect! The view was fantastic and the indoor and outdoor areas accommodated everyone comfortably. We enjoyed the fire pit nightly and the beach area was magnificent! The kitchen was well stocked with adequate supplies needed for cooking. We specifically loved the round table for dining. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay and would definitely recommend.

Spacious house, many areas for different ages, outdoor areas amazing!

This was our 11th year for Labor Day family reunions in Southwest MI. This home was a unanimous favorite!! Loved the spacious home, guest house, amazing outdoor areas and private beach access. Also enjoyed the short bike ride to cute ice cream shop in Union Pier. Would love to stay at this home again. Thanks for a wonderful week-end!!

Another excellent stay...

This is our third time renting this home. It continues to be a charming and enjoyable lake house. It is very comfortable for us, we love the the beach and proximity to restaurants which we like. It is very relaxing to listen to the waves at night. The kitchen is equipped well for cooking, the washer and dryer are convenient and the air conditioner works well. Thank you again for a nice stay.

Amazing beachfront getaway

We used this house as a physical therapy school reunion, and had an absolute blast. The location was perfect as you just have to walk down a couple of flights of stairs to Lake Michigan, and a few stores are close by as well. The sleeping arrangements were great as there are so many comfortable beds and couches, and plenty of things to do inside. The back patio was great to hangout for fires and card games, and the basement actually looks recently updated, even better than the pictures listed

A wonderful weekend

We had a great time at this beautiful home. We were three families and with five children between the ages of 10 months to 4 years. The house was perfect for the kids to run back and forth to the beach, to cook big group dinners and to relax around the fire pit in the evenings. The house was clean, the kitchen was well stocked. The location can’t be beat. We will definitely be back.

Beach Week 2025: Wow!

Our family loves beach week because this house and private beach are amazing!! The house is fully equipped and the beach shed has lots of chairs and toys for everyone to have fun at the beach. I love that the kitchen, dining area and family room are all connected. The back porch area is huge for all of us to relax and watch those beautiful Lake Michigan sunsets. We have made so many happy memories here. And-Mo the manager was very helpful and nice when we had a minor request. The owner is wonderful to work with too. Truly a great week.

Great experience

Three days after a major storm knocked down trees on the property and all across town, a huge effort was made to get the yard cleaned up and a broken window fixed. The place is stocked with everything you might need. Huge fridge, big bbq grill, more beach chairs than you’d need and a convenient fire pit right out the back door. Incredible view of the lake and sunset.
