Omana, thanks for staying with us at Sandy Shores Lookout! Like many vacation rentals, we do not offer Cable at this location but instead offer access to Smart TV so that guests can enjoy their own personal streaming services. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to host you again in the future.

Beautiful view. Nice house. Well appointed. The beach ended up being a little too cool/windy. However, it was close to several nearby cities with other things to do (Grand Haven, Holland). The only thing that could have been better was a fire pit or hot tub . The stairs are daunting but manageable going slow for average sedentary adults. We had a nice time.

The views of Lake Michigan from the house, the decks and the beach were excellent! Very clean, well-stocked kitchen. Quiet surroundings. Appreciated the easy checkout process with no responsibility for laundry - we've been asked by other hosts to start loads when leaving.The odd thing was the host had no information about if we could have a fire on the beach. We thought the host would know local fire regulations. They just sent local township ordinances related to rental units when we asked the question.
