BEST LAKE HOUSE, BEST BEACH HOUSE Lake Michigan, relaxing!

Thank you, hope you are able to return now that the beach is returning and walking is so much more pleasant.

Dear Jami, You and your family made hosting a joy. It was a pleasure to have you and I hope it was a perfect vacation for you and that you can continue to return year after year. It is a small but very special home and I am so delighted it worked for your family. The beach is predicted to expand and can be a perfect walk. I want my guests to enjoy their stay and have everything they could possibily need. Looking forward to your return.

Dear Wonderful guest, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I hope you can return when we have our beautiful sandy beach back. I am glad you could find the enjoyable advantages of my home and overlook shortcomings. I want to make your visit the best. Sincerely, Owner

Thank you for visiting and I hope the full moon rise and soft sandy beach for walking to Kohler Andre State park enhanced your stay. You were lovely guests and I hope you are able to return soon.

Thank you! You are always welcome back.

Thank you for being such gracious guests. I work very hard to attempt to provide the best home for your stay. I welcome your return.

I was so delighted to have you as guests. All the work and effort are worthwhile when I have appreciative guests as kind and thoughtful as you! I hope you are able to come back soon and often. Thank you for your detailed review.

Dear Kimberly, I hope you are able to return now that the beach is back and walkable for miles. You were wonderful guests and there have been some nice upgrades that should create an even better for you.

Thank you, thank you kind, wonderful guest. My objective is to provide a comfortable home for your enjoyment with all the amenities so you can relax and enjoy your time here. Thank you for understanding the situation of high water and sadly, no beach yet. I and my staff do work to try to please every guest and your lovely review makes the work worthwhile.

I am so glad that you felt at home and had all items that were useful for your stay. I want you to have everything you desire so you do not need to run to the store for an item. You were wonderful guests and I look forward to your return.

Thank you Emily, You are welcome anytime. You are a delightful guest.

Dear Lori, Thank you for your positive detailed review. I am so glad it worked for you and you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back this year and hope you enjoy the return of the beach. You can walk north for miles, even as far a Kohler-Andre State park. The sunrises have been exceptional this year, unusually colorful with great bird watching. You are a joy to have as a guest and I will make every effort to make sure your visit is wonderful.

This renter tried to extort money from me to avoid posting this review. VRBO reviewed her complaints, and reviewed my extensive documentation and found no validity to her claims. Their complaint, no beach. The guests 7 days later had sufficient beach to walk on and use. It clearly states in all information that the beach level is extremely high and it varies. For the past 20 years we have had a nice beach that has diminished this year as Lake Michigan is at a 30 year high. I have been renting my home for ten years and never before have had such irresponsible renters. They caused significant damage in two nights time and left the home filthy. I withheld only half of the rental deposit and would have kept it all if I knew the extent of the damage they caused. (detailed later.) There were no complaints until I withheld half of the security deposit. The renters did not read the contract or information and instructions provided about the house. They broke the sliding screen door requiring replacement. They must have allowed the kids to play with the brand new commercial Maytag washer electronic control panel as after they left it required extensive service calls to allow it to work again. The "kids" may have reprogrammed it to shut down and delay start. The septic alarm went off to notify them for the need to empty the tank. They ignored this and told no one. The septic tank overflowed and caused headaches for me and my septic service. This had never happened before. They broke the expensive sliding glass door blinds and left them in pieces. They left 7 loads of laundry, crammed 10 people in a house intended for 6 max. They failed to remove their garbage, including smelly dirty diapers. They left the house unlocked, blinds and windows open and did not tell anyone. My cleaning staff had to return over a 3 day period to clean the home to standards. My cleaning costs were doubled. The oven was crusted with food, and some item containing red dye was spilled and left on the refrigerator and surrounding area requiring extensive cleaning efforts. The guests called the day of check in with no idea of the time to arrive or depart and did not have the address of the home which is stated on each page of the contract they signed. One person contacted me to rent and another one signed the contract and checks without authorization. I needed to make 2 trips from out of state to correct the problems and am still not finished yet.
