Great location to visit Lake Michigan, the Sleeping Bear Dunes and all the surrounding areas. Cabin was well equipped with amenities, including toaster, coffee maker, grill and air fryer. Was clean and spacious.

Thank you for such a kind review. We're so glad the location worked well as a base for Lake Michigan, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, and everything nearby, and that the cabin felt clean, spacious, and well stocked right down to the air fryer and grill. It's always nice to hear the little touches made a difference. We'd love to host you again whenever your travels bring you back. The VueStay Team

We had an amazing and peaceful time. Perfect location, super clean, air conditioning worked better than I would have expected for a small unit. The WiFi password didn’t work but we didn’t really need it. The host was very responsive and ready to help make our stay enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Thank you for such a lovely review. We're so glad the location and the peaceful atmosphere set the tone for your stay, and it's great to hear the air conditioning kept things comfortable even in a smaller unit. Thank you as well for flagging the WiFi password, we've shared that with our local team to look into. It means a lot to know our team was there to help make your time enjoyable, and we'd be delighted to host you again whenever you're ready for another peaceful getaway. The VueStay Team

6/10 Okay

Disliked: Check-in, communication
First the good: the home was very clean, and there was plenty of room to kind of lounge around in the open kitchen/dining room/living room. We loved that the bathroom had a bidet! It’s in a beautiful, peaceful area, close enough for a quick drive to day adventures but far enough that we didn’t hear traffic. Now the bad: Before we even got there, vuestay had attempted to charge the incorrect credit card. The email that was supposed to give us our password to get into the house didn’t arrive, and so I had to call an 877 number to try to get the password before we got there. It was very stressful, as I was worried that after paying 2k for a week’s stay, we wouldn’t be able to get in!There was also an issue getting into the dryer, which would not be a big deal, except that it took several messages back and forth, and it was obvious that the person that I was texting with was not actually familiar with the layout of the house.The beds are a little hard, and there is one ac for the entire home-fine if we were in the living room, but the bedrooms were pretty warm. We enjoyed our vacation, but the communication felt stressful. Probably wouldn’t stay at the same place again.
