The property was exactly what we were shown online. We loved the closeness to the various beaches and the great restaurant recommendations. Our family had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the different spaces the property had to offer. Also, having the ability to use the washer and dryer was a complete game changer and made our stay even better. Grateful for the space to enjoy our family vacation.

Great location for the friends and family hanging out on the beach. Great price. The house is secure and very accommodating. It's a cute old house with some modern updates. It could use a few small repairs, but nothing that will put the trip at an inconvenience. You can tell the area is starting to turn back into a fun little lakeside town. I would do this again.

Eddi was fantastic and has a very charming rental right near the lake. Everything we needed was available and Michigan City is a quiet town with a picture perfect beach. You won’t regret booking this place!

I wasn’t sure if it would be big enough for the 12 of us, but it was actually a great fit. It was perfect for our group to spend the weekend. Also, the owners respond very quickly and are very helpful.
Booked this weekend away for my kids and significants for Christmas. Great location between Grand Rapids and Chicago. House was well maintained and many extras! Would definitely recommend!!

Property was clean and comfortable, I had family drive and fly in from all over the country and there was more than enough room for all of us. Host was communicative and responsive. Will stay again if I'm in the area!!

Thanks Brandon for the 5 star review. Your family was responsible and kept the place clean. Would love to have you guys back again.
Home was very clean with plenty of beds for guests. Has everything you could possibly need, including stocks of coffee, oatmeal, spices... Great yard with a fire pit and chairs, outdoor table for dining.
Excellent area if you're looking to go shopping, or a day trip to Michigan's many activities. We greatly enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed our time with 10 teen runners for a short running retreat. We would recommend more bath towels, mirrors, and paper towels. High school girls use those things a lot. :) Appreciated the beach towels. Otherwise house was great.

Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad the house worked well for your running retreat and that you enjoyed the beach towels. I appreciate your suggestions for more bath towels, mirrors, and paper towels, and will keep them in mind for future guests. It was a pleasure hosting you!
Met up mid- way for our yearly gathering. Home was great for us to hang out and spend time. Cold weather was a bit of a struggle, as the home is older (which is understandable), but nothing that caused any issues. Plenty of room all of us, great location.
