Yes we are perfect for just two. Walk half block to the beach with 2.4 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline. And walk to the Deck restaurant and dance in the sand. Or sit on the patio and hear the waves when the wind is up.

We are great for two guests who want to walk to 2 great restaurants, dance in the sand, or walk our quiet 2.4 miles of white sandy beach. The county sifts the sand here so we are at a popular beach you can see from the patio

Perfect location but

Description & amenities need to be revised. No washer & dryer. Says sleeps 3 but only one bedroom with a queen bed. A cot was provided for my daughter which was ok. Also, the shower was super small. My husband is 6'7 and did not fit. It's like an camper size shower. But location is right across the street from the lake and that was perfect. Check in process was easy. Owner checked in over our 4day stay.

There is a washer and dryer in Glos basement we allow our guests to use. Our Property is ideal for two. You can shoe horn in a third. Ask and we will provide a roll away bed and linens. Our shower is a stand up unit with great water pressure :). And yes some nights you can hear the waves - we are that close to lake Mi and the Deck eatery

This is a great location and space! We had a great time. The place was very clean and well stocked. Its very cute and comfy for one or 2 people who want to sleep in the same bed. Property manager is nice and communication is great. Notes:The listing said there was a Queen bed and a Futon, but there is no futon. What is pictured is only a regular couch and no linens were in the rental for the couch. We were offered a roll-away bed and linens were provided after we asked. Also, there is no washer and dryer. It is possible to use the one in the basement of the adjacent house when it is available which was not what was expected. The amenity is mentioned twice in the listing so we were surprised there was none in the rental. We did not see the kayak so I assume you'd have to ask about that. We definitely would stay again, but make sure to compare the value with properties that have 1 bed.
