We had a wonderful time! The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything we would need. The host was easy to work with. The location feels private and secluded which is exactly what we needed after days on the dunes. The pull out couch in the living room was comfortable - my kids asked if we could get one for our house. Thanks again.

The setting of this house was awesome! It was very secluded and quiet, but also being very close to the dunes. The roads around it were very nice to use for a morning walk/run because there were very few cars on them.

Great time at lovely cottage

We absolutely loved our time at the cottage.It is a perfect place to spend time so close to everything but away enough to reconnect with the nature.The cottage was spotless and very tastefully decorated.

Best cabin we’ve rented on Silver Lake! It was perfectly set up to spend time as a family. Ever since our family grew too big for the family cabin down the street, we’ve had trouble finding a comfy spot near our grandparents, but this is it. We hope to rent it again each summer!

The house was very clean. It’s located 7 minutes from the dunes so we were able to do many activities, and it was a very nice and cozy spot to relax after all of our climbing.

Great location at silver lake dunes

We loved our stay! The house is the perfect size for a family of 4. So close to silver lake dunes and we also visited ludington and new era and other towns nearby. This was our first trip to the area and we really enjoyed it. Wifi is pretty slow but that made for more family time!

Escape To The Forest

Silver Lake and the greater Rothbury area provided for an exceptional adventure. The Cabin was the perfect place to stay and spend time together. The stay created for lovely, lifelong memories. Many thanks to the Arnouts for being awesome hosts. We look forward to coming back one day soon.

Perfect location

This has the perfect setting in the woods. Roads to get here are sand just an FYI. It was fully stocked with items beyond what you normally get in a rental. They had the firepit full of wood and left us 2 bundles. It’s located less than 5 min from the dunes and all the dining and town options. Easy check in. No complaints at all.

Our 3rd Time at This Property

Really nice, comfortable, convenient place to stay close to Silver Lake & Lake Michigan but removed enough for privacy and quiet. The only possible problems are lack of air conditioning in one bdrm and getting up the road to the property because of loose sand (may need truck/Jeep).

Idyllic Spot in the Woods

We loved being close to the dunes and other things to do but being able to retreat to the sanctuary of this cabin. We set up a hammock by the firepit and spent many memorable hours talking by the fire. The place was convenient and comfortable and had everything we needed yet has the cabin charm we were looking for. We'd definitely come back.

Great location - 2nd time back

Great cabin in a secluded and private location yet super close (5 mins. Or less) to all the area has to offer. Silver Lake is awesome especially for kids and teens. The beaches are excellent. The Arnouts are great hosts. The cabin is clean and mostly has everything you would need(more forks please!) This was our second stay at the cabin and we plan on making it back!

Tranquillity Tucked Into Adventure Spot

We came for Jeep Fest and fell in love with this perfect hideaway nestled into the woods. Easy to find, everything included, perfect to rest and recoup location. Especially after a busy day on the dunes and exploring the area. This lovely home was so cozy and inviting. I just wanted to stay snuggled up on the couch in front of the fireplace the whole time. The decor was like a charming Tennessee Cabin with Michigan wildlife quietly walking through the woods. Great hosts with flawless communication. Definitely a “come back” location on our next trip to the area.
