The rental was great and the Lake view was lovely! The filtered water was appreciated. We enjoyed the kuerig, nicely updated bathrooms, ample TP, and found the kitchen well stocked. The sunsets were beautiful :)

Gorgeous view of the lake from inside and outside. I believe we have stayed here 3 times over the years. In the heart of the park area to visit both State and National Dunes. Well supplied home, very comfortable and homey. Communication with the host always receives a quick response. Beautiful and relaxing.

The house was no frills, but had everything we needed. The real star of the listing is the amazing view and easy access to the beach. We loved every minute of our stay and are hoping to repeat again next year.

This was a great stay. The location can’t be beat, the house was clean and comfortable and had anything we would ever need. The beach towels, chairs, and beach toys that were available to use were an added bonus.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is great, and the beach is beautiful and not crowded at all. We love that the house is pet friendly. There was plenty of space on the beach for us and our dog, Brodie, to have some space to wander around. There was a storm while we were there that left us without some basic necessities, but the homeowner went out of his way to make our stay more comfortable. We hope to return again next summer!

The lake view will take your breath away. The photos do not capture the extraordinary scenery. The sunsets are spectacular, the beach is clean and very private. It is one of the most charming cottages you can experience. The amenities are upscale and the furnishings are new and comfortable. We hope to return.

The cottage was a perfect getaway! We loved the set up of the house and the view is spectacular. Will and Liz are fantastic hosts! The house was very clean and well decorated. Also there are two parking spots on the property which was extremely convenient. We were appreciative for the instructions included in the cottage as well as having access to beach equipment and board games. Will was always to quick to respond to any question we had. We definitely want to stay here again!

Inside was very clean & orderly. Ample supplies on hand. Variety of entertainment options - WiFi, tv & games. Host was extremely helpful & accommodating. Had a little trouble with Vrbo messaging but host was gracious enough to use his personal texting to stay in touch until problems were resolved. Cabin was very nice. Liked the rustic look. Ample parking spaces available. View of lake was absolutely gorgeous. Beach was exactly the setting we were wanting - particularly small sample size utilizing the area. Ample supplies for any & all beach activities.

This property was perfect!!! The view, the proximity to the beach, the beach, the toys/chairs/umbrella/paddle boards/boogie board/etc available for use, the deck….everything was amazing!!! The owners make everything easy (a binder of info and everything in the house is labeled) and they respond quickly if you need to connect with them for any reason!!! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay (fire pit, grill, outdoor seating as well as all the dishes, towels, typical home amenities)!!! Truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!!!
