The house was immaculate, and well supplied with everything we could need. There were kids books, games, blankets, and the kitchen (which we used a lot) had everything we needed. The screened in back porch was lovely to hang out in
and eat. We saw a deer one day, crashing around out back. There was a playground out back that we could run down to with the kids. We loved driving around in the golf cart, and the whole beach community. The pool ( though the kiddy pool was closed the entire week) , the walk to the Lake Michigan beach, the lake beach, the little coffee shop next to the pool, the pier, all of it. Our kids went fishing on the pier (buy bait outside of the property, the pool didn't have any) my husband went to the putting green, this place has something for everyone. Nobody got to paddleboard because we waited too long to sign up, sign up right away! Our only concerns would be parking. We only put 2 cars in front of the house, and one in overflow, but the overflow parking was sometimes crowded. The owners said we could put three, but it would be tight. A tip: we took the wagon to the beach one day, and while it was great going down, coming up was so difficult I would never do it again. Just carry everything. The basement room for the kids was perfect, because it is almost sound proof. We had horrible thunderstorms at night, and they didn't even know it was raining. One of my grandkids slept on a blowup mattress by her parent's bed, because she was scared being away from home. They had the blow up mattress in the closet! We could text the owners at any time and they would get back to us. We had the best vacation, even though it rained a lot, and my daughter in law wants us to go back next year. Really I have only positive things to say about this house and our experience. Go, go, go! You will love it. You are renting the WHOLE community, which is great, not just the house.
