Great location! Lots of room for our family. Great dog beach which is just a 5 minute walk away. Great communication from host. We enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was a bit on the small side which it made meal prep challenging at times. It could have been a bit cleaner and need to invest in new mattresses. Overall, a good stay though. The weather was fabulous during our stay.

My family of 8 rented this home for a long weekend beach getaway and it was the perfect place for us. The home was spacious, clean, and stocked with everything we needed. The location was incredible - just a few minutes walk to the beach, which was never crowded. The property owners keep the garage stocked with all things you may need for the beach from chairs to toys and even a wagon to carry it all down. It was such a relief to not have to travel with all that extra stuff! I would definitely rent this home again l and highly recommend it to others. Thank you for a memorable family getaway!

Ideal Lake Michigan Location

This was our family’s second stay at Sunsets on Sherman and it was, again, a great vacation. The home has everything we needed and the location is just a short walk to Lake Michigan. The owners, Valerie and Sean, communicated with us well, and even made sure we knew about the local fireworks.

Short but very sweet

We were in the area for a wedding but this home and location made it fun for all. Having access to the beach was awesome for all of us, especially the kids. The game closet was great, too. The adults got into the hot tub one evening. All in all a lovely stay.

Beautiful lake house

The property was well maintained and stocked with "cottage" necessities. The location was nice and quiet yet close to Lake Michigan. The hosts were very accommodating and let us move back our check out time since the kids and grandkids had a later flight departure time. Had a great time and the weather was very cooperative.

Rare Find Near Dog Beach

Our family of five adults and two dogs had a great time at this home. The dog beach is a short walk down the dunes and we spent lots of time there. The house was very clean and the backyard was very peaceful. We enjoyed our stay.

Best rental

Everything about this rental, including the owner’s communication, was by far the best rental we’ve ever stayed at. It was obvious that this is not just a rental but a very cared for home. Anything needed for the beach was there. We were so pleasantly surprised. Thanks for sharing your place with us! Our family had an amazing time!

Best location

The whole place was very warm and inviting. Love the fact that is was a couple minute walk to the beach which was not crowed and clean, great place for your dog to run and play and minutes away for any attraction like the submarine museum, light houses and fishing. Owners texted me the day before and said we can come before check in time and text me again stating no rush to check out due to no renters behind us which was nice to chill in the morning before packing up and headed out the door. I can not wait to go back

Summer family vacation

The cottage and location were great, this would have been five stars across the board except there was a plumbing issue the owner was unable to resolve prior to checkin which resulted in non stop dripping water in the main floor shower/tub.

Wonderful Beach House

I went on this trip with my family of 5, my mom and brother. There was plenty of room for us and the house was so cute with the beach decorating. The house was very clean. they had beach chairs and toys for the kids which worked perfectly at the beach. It is right across the street from one beach and right down the street from the Pere Marquette. We loved the house and trip, would go again!

Wonderful property close to beach with some water views from porch and upstairs windows.

Beautiful location. Wonderful property that was well equipped for families. We had a party of eight and could easily have accommodated more. Wish I was still sitting in the backyard enjoying the peaceful views and sounds of waves crashing, and the beach and neighboring park were amazing. Owners were super to deal with and will make this a tradition.

We had a wonderful time at Sunsets on Sherman!

We had a fantastic stay at Sean and Valerie’s place. The house was perfect for our needs. Plenty of space for our family. Beautiful back yard that we used for playing yard games. The hot tub was a lovely bonus. So close to the beach - just a short walk or a bike ride to the larger beach. The kitchen was nicely outfitted as well which allowed us to cook most of our meals at home and we enjoyed eating together on the back deck. All around just great!
