Om boendet

Privat strand. Lake MI pÄ 10 tunnland. Sekretess men ÀndÄ nÀra hamnlandet. Njut av!

Bridgman Dunes Àr ett vackert massivt specialbyggt sjö frÀmre hem inbÀddat i en avskild woodsy Dune miljö strax norr om Bridgman. Sommar bara veckan.

Hemens funktioner inkluderar pÄ första vÄningen en stor sovrumsvit, ett extra stort gourmet-Àtkök, avskÀrmad veranda för helÄrsgasgrillning, rymligt solrum, matsal och vardagsrum med delad gasspis.

Den andra vÄningen har tvÄ fullstÀndiga sovrum sviter, ett fjÀrde bonus sovrum, en TV / screening rum samt en slott stil loft sÀker att bli Àlskad av alla barn i din grupp och ett bonusrum med extra sovande.
Den lÀgre nivÄn har inbyggda vÄningssÀngar i vardagsrummet / pentry, ytterligare tvÄ sovrum och ett fjÀrde badrum. Badrummet ansluts till sovrummet i furu.

Hemmet Àr omgivet av ett stort dÀck med trappor ner till en inbyggd eldstad omgiven av bÀnkar och en dubbelsving. Enkla trappor ner till stranden med permanenta strandtÀlt. GÄ mil pÄ ofta avskilda strÀnder, eller slÄ dig ner pÄ din egen privata strand pÄ 150 meter. SolnedgÄngarna Àr fantastiska. Ta den upplysta vÀgen till stranden pÄ natten för att stirra upp mot stjÀrnorna, det Àr verkligen inspirerande!
Vi erbjuder obegrÀnsad telefon, WIFI, xbox live med Netflix & Hulu tillsammans med en stor butik med spel och filmer. Antenn ger dig mÄnga lokala TV-stationer. Betalningsalternativ tillgÀngliga ocksÄ.
NÀra mÄnga lokala attraktioner som vingÄrdar, gÄrdsmarknader / u val, St Joseph och Silver Beach, New Buffalo och kasinot, vÀrldsklass fiske pÄ St Joseph floden, bÄtliv frÄn marinor i omrÄdet, parker trÀdgÄrdar och vandring finns i överflöd. SmÄ stÀder prickar med Red Arrow Highway som ger dig restauranger, butiker gallerier och antikviteter för alla smaker.
Specialrestauranger, lokala festivaler och evenemang ger alla typer av avvÀgningar. HÀrifrÄn kan du enkelt köra till Chicago, Ann Arbor, Detroit och sÄ mÄnga andra spÀnnande stÀder. Mina favoriter Àr de smÄ stÀderna som du aldrig har hört talas om att var och en har nÄgot unikt att erbjuda. Om du bor ett körbart avstÄnd till SydvÀstra Michigan kommer du att bli förvÄnad över hur "pÄ semester" du kommer att kÀnna dig utan att resa lÄngt hemifrÄn.
Om du aldrig varit i de stora sjöarna mÄste du verkligen komma hit. The Great Lakes Àr en nationell skatt som stÄr för över 1/5 av vÀrldens fÀrskvattenförsörjning. Om du nÄgonsin har varit i en liten sjö eller ett hav och önskat att du kunde kombinera de bÀsta sakerna om bÄda ... vÀlkommen till svaret pÄ dina drömmar! NÀr du tittar ut över vÄr strand kommer du att tro att du befinner dig pÄ ett hav. Men kÀnna sanden och det rena fÀrska vattnet pÄ din hud sÄ kommer du att kÀnna glÀdjen vid de stora sjöarna. Det Àr hÀpnadsvÀckande att förestÀlla sig att du kan sitta pÄ en lÄng privat strand med sötvatten, avund av hundratals strandgÀster som kÀmpar för ett utrymme för sin handduk och ser bara dina barn som plaskar i vattnet.
Med den storlek och komfort som detta hem ger dig och familj och vÀnner kan du Àntligen dela kvalitetstid tillsammans utan att kÀnna dig trasig eller rusade för att komma ut och göra nÄgot. Det Àr okej hÀr pÄ Bridgman Dunes, vi vill aldrig lÀmna fastigheten nÀr vi Àr dÀr!

Wonderful house on the beach

This house is beautiful with so much space, a fabulous deck and a huge kitchen. It's difficult to list all the amenities. Gorgeous private beach and easy path to get there. We particularly enjoyed the swing looking out over the lake.

Amazing home on Lake Michigan

Beautiful home with modern amenities. Right on Lake Michigan with your own private beach. We felt like we were on the ocean with the sound of the waves. Definitely will book again in the future. The sunsets were breathtaking on the beautiful deck overlooking the lake. Plenty of space for family and/or friends.

Fabulous home on a private beach!

Our family loved your gorgeous, spacious home! The open floor plan made it easy for our whole family to congregate. The kitchen was huge, well equipped and a great space for several of us to work in it. We loved socializing on the huge deck and watching the gorgeous sunsets. Many wonderful family memories were made. Look forward to booking again (our children and grandchildren were requesting that before we left to go home!)

Amazing Lake Home!!

My family had a wonderful weekend filled with fun and memories - exactly what I had hoped for. Your home is incredible and as beautiful as the pics are, they do not come close to doing it justice. Wow is all I can say . . . everything was clean, right where it should be and easy to use/find . . . It was just perfect!

Great Family Vacation getaway!

Fabulous home with modern conveniences throughout. Right on Lake Michigan with your own private beach. The check-in process and walk through by the building manager was quick and very efficient. The rooms were large, the house was clean and the open main floor was great for hanging out and playing games. There was more than enough space for family and friends. The whole house sound system was extraordinary – piping our favorite music throughout the house. The sunsets were beautiful from the beach, fire pit or deck overlooking the lake. We are looking forward booking again in the future.

Great space, quiet beach

We really enjoyed the open kitchen and dining area, made visiting and socializing very enjoyable. The bath rooms are large and bright. The LL space works well for a privacy or kids. Grant access to the beach about 30 steps, sweet swing and fire pit. Lots of windows, many trees give shade and limit lake view. Positives well stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, nice deck, beautiful beach Negatives windows need cleaning, TLC, light switches, only 4 chairs on deck, no table on deck( we brought one)

Comfort and Class with a View

Immediately upon pulling up to Bridgman Dunes, we knew we were in for a special trip. After traversing a path deep into the woods, suddenly we found a unique, spacious home perched on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. A fenced-in porch overlooked the view through the trees, and the porch itself was decorated with small lamps, an outdoor shower, homemade signs, and various chairs to enjoy the scenery. Once inside, we found a vaulted living room and dining room, complete with bay windows and bisected by a four-sided fireplace. This vaulted area became the hub of the indoor portions of our vacation, and backed by the kitchen and a screened-in porch holding the grill, we had everything we needed within arms reach. The basement is a fully furnished apartment complete with a kitchen, multiple bedrooms, and laundry. The upstairs has a theater room and two master suites with king size beds, private bathrooms, and balconies. Outside, a walking path leads halfway down to the beach and dovetails into the the fire pit area (complete with porch swing), which provides an unobstructed view of the lake from an ideal vantage point. Use this for sure - just make sure to watch your step in the dark (turn on the floodlights to help this). The beach itself is absolutely gorgeous, providing a good deal of sand and a curving coastline covered in greenery and dunes. This is why you come out to Bridgman instead of New Buffalo - no apartment buildings, high rises, or harbors - just unobstructed coastline leading into the Warren Dunes State Park, which is a completely deserted beach even devoid of homes. What's more - you'll be close to Harbor Country's many wineries, as well as a good deal of fun restaurants, stores, and bars. The house itself was clean and impeccably prepared, and we were met promptly by the manager, who was available for any issues. Overall, we'll certainly be back - this trip couldn't have been better!

Be Lulled to Sleep by the Sound of Waves

We were a blended family of Grandparents, 2 sons, a daughter-in-law and twin 9 year old grandsons. There was plenty of room for everyone to have privacy and for gathering together. Inside and outside it is a wonderful home and in a beautiful setting. It's very woodsy, making it a little difficult to see the lake, but boy could you hear it! So soothing. The owner and property manager were extremely responsive throughout our stay. Other guests mentioned mosquitoes being bad, but we never had a problem with them. As stated in the house info, the internet and cell service does come and go, but it usually worked just fine for us and was not a problem. We loved our stay at Bridgman Dunes and would return in the future!

Beach blast

The house was great and the beach was perfect. We spent hours in the water which was in the 70's, sometimes calm and sometime with waves. We were just together all the time which is what we wanted---highly recommend

Quiet, private and lovely!

Beautiful home - great location - tons of windows and light filled the home - sits just above the beach where you can hear the waves. Short walk down the stairs to perfect private beach. Couldn’t sit outside due to tons of mosquitoes - home sits in middle of trees in the woods which was nice for shade facing west but way too many mosquitoes. Otherwise a wonderful home and great response by owner and property manager.

What a glorious week!

The property manager and owner were wonderful to work with. Very accessible and easily contacted. Home is beautiful on a lovely and very private setting. Our weather was perfect the whole week and the lake was actually warm! We had very young children - there was a play closet with ample toys, a play loft and lots of sand/beach toys in the garage for them. Very nice house for kids. Large well appointed kitchen, meals were a breeze. We loved every minute of our stay.

A memorable vacation!

Our week spent at Bridgman Dunes was a wonderful experience for my family! My husband and I, our son and wife and five year old grandson, our daughter and her husband and five and three year old grandsons settled in to this beautiful home and property and loved every moment. We were sad to leave and our grandsons now refer to it as "our beachhouse". They have repeatedly asked when we are going back! I wish I could share the videos of the boys running and playing on the beach and frolicking in the water. Having this private beach, not having to pack up beach gear and kids and drive to a public beach, was a tremendous benefit. And the secluded and private setting with no neighbors in sight was wonderful. The house is beautiful with so many custom features. The ample size and placement of bedrooms and baths were so accommodating for our group. We made good use of the huge kitchen and the abundance of tableware, utensils, etc. Our little boys loved the loft area and were so imaginative in finding uses for it. We did not have to contact the property manager one time as we encountered no problems whatsoever. I have used many superlatives in my review because this property definitely falls into an elite category! And I must share this occurrence..... about 45 minutes after we departed on our last day I received a text message that some articles of clothing had been found in one of the bedroom dresser drawers. And pictures of these items were included. My daughter has missed these in her packing. The sender asked if we could swing back to pick them up, but we were too far on our drive to return. So I told them I would send a check to reimburse them if they could mail them to my daughter. To my surprise they simply asked for an address and said they would be happy to cover the mailing cost. How sweet is that!? I did not begin my search for a place for our family vacation until late spring and I am just delighted that this property had one week available the entire summer and that week fit our schedule! If you chose to spend time here you will not be disappointed!

Great beach vacation house

Overall only wonderful things to say. Property is as described and easy to work with owner/manager. House right on beach, very secluded and great for a family getaway. 5 min from town and plenty of local points of interest. Would highly recommend for a family trip to the beach or just to get away.

50th Anniversary Celebration

It was a wonderful get away for all our family, celebrating 5th and 50th Anniversaries and Father’s Day. There were 9 members of our family who hadn’t been together for six months. The Lake House was a great place to cook together, play games, do puzzles and just laugh and have a fun time reconnecting.

Amazing Family Vacation Experience!

This house was absolutely perfect for our multi-family vacation this past summer! Great location and close to many attractions! Some wanted to spend time everyday at beach and some wanted to sight see along the coast! This house is also family friendly- kids loved the fun loft area! We will definitely be back for our week in June/July next summer! Thanks, Marjorie!!

Spectacular home, beautiful location, wonderful experience and the best sunsets!

We thoroughly enjoyed our August week at Bridgman dunes. The house is custom and state of the art with amenities and easily accommodated 4 adult couples with rooms and beds to spare. There are lofts and bunks that would easily accommodate lots of kids. The kitchen was fully stocked with supplies, cookware and anything else you might need. The location is both convenient in terms of ease of getting there and at the same time truly remote. You can't see another house and have a truly private beach which was magnificent. (The beach access down steps could prove difficult for anybody that was not able bodied) Everyday the beach was a little different in terms of waves, wind and water which made each day different, some for swimming others for long walks at sunset and a good camp fire in the fire pit. No detail was left unattended including fresh wood near the fire pit, ample beach equipment, a great barbecue detergent for the washers and easily understood instructions for appliances, wifi, sound system etc. Nearby we enjoyed several good meals, wine tasting, antiquing, and peach picking. The owner was immediately available to answer questions by phone or text. We mostly enjoyed being together, cooking great food, sleeping in, cocktails at sunset and the beach. We would definitely go back!

Ideal setting for our family's Great Lake experience!

This was the best birthday present ever: hosting three generations of our blended family from Oregon and Illinois at Bridgman Dunes! The house and secluded setting were exactly right for our ‘everyone together’ vacation; plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and outdoor spaces. We ranged from age 8 to 70; 3 couples, 3 adult singles and one very active kid. The many gathering places inside and all around the property fostered conversations and connections while also allowing individual space and time. We brought our books and took up comfy Adirondack chairs on the deck enjoying the shade, gentle breeze and sound of lapping waves from the shore. My husband and I did morning Tai Chi on the deck before the others were up. My daughter practiced yoga on the landing overlooking the beach. The double swing nearby was another favorite spot - slightly shaded, comfortable, and enjoyable to just swing along to the rhythm of the waves. After dark we had a great time making S’mores and Taffy-Cracks over the campfire reviewing the day’s adventures. This is a wonderfully private property where we rarely saw or heard other people; it was just us. The open floor plan made it easy to cook together and share meals – all 10 of us around the dining table. While we came with a list of local restaurants to try, this home invited us to relax and stay, so we instead cooked all our meals there. The barbeque on the screen porch got plenty of use and several of us easily did prep work in the kitchen. We made several trips to the Sawyer Home and Garden Center for corn, beefsteak tomatoes, basil, green beans, blueberries, raspberries, apricots and more - a real cornucopia of summertime bounty! The weather couldn’t have been better – everyday was a beach day; swimming, rock hunting and skipping, paddling kayaks, walking the beach and watching sunsets. The water was a comfortable temperature and we had the sandy beach almost all to ourselves. As a kid, I spent summers camping on Lake Ontario and will forever be a ‘Great Lakes Girl’; those times shaped who I became. I wanted my family to have an inkling of what makes the Great Lakes so great and why we must do all that we can to keep them healthy! For me, it was a link to childhood memories and a deep feeling of joy in making new memories ‘at the lake’ with my husband, our children and grandchildren. This was the family vacation of a lifetime and we are most grateful that you shared this very special place with us.

VĂ€rdens profilbild
We are from the Chicago area, southside and suburbs. Moving to South Bend IN to start a medical practice, my husband and I looked for years for a Lake Michigan property that was private and close to home. We spent nearly every weekend and summer at Bridgman Dunes while our children were growing up. In 2006, we moved to Illinois 2 hours west of Chicago, making the drive to Bridgman Dunes just over 3 hours. It was this move and the fact that we now had two busy teenagers that lead us to the option of renting out our home. It was not an easy choice because so much personal connection exists towards a property you have lived and built memories upon. But after the first few years of rentals, I have come to feel it is an honor and privilege to share what we have with others. The beauty and the splendor of this lake front vacation home is really one of a kind. It is so rare to find a setting where you can easily walk down to your own private beach, yet barely see the neighbors house through the forest of trees! The wrap-around deck offers plenty of seating for friends and family to step out and enjoy the view. Paths lead off in all directions to explore the wooded road or look down from the adjacent hilltops.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

We searched for years for the right property on lake Michigan before we found Bridgman Dunes. I knew I was going to love the place soon as I turned onto the access road! The wooded lane leading to the house was so beautiful and inspiring, the sense of privacy and adventure while driving up to the house sold me before I even entered the driveway. And its a good thing too, because the original house was not something to get excited about. A 50-year-old ranch in rough shape, nothing about it was 'beachouse.' But we had a clear vision of what it could be and with the 10 acres and 150 feet of beach, the house really did not matter. So we set about hiring an architect and doubling the size of the house. Adding decks and expanding every way we could get a permit to do so! It was a huge challenge but the well thought out design has proven itself again and again at large family gatherings. The location in Bridgman keeps you right in the middle of everything. Only 1 1/2 hours to Chicago. 20 minutes to New Buffalo area. 50 minutes to Saugatuk, there is so much to do and explore. That is if you can leave the beach. We take it so for granted now that we have this private beach. Once in a while we will go to Weko Beach, just 2 miles south, for a concert or wine festival and we are reminded how crowded and inconvenient it is to haul yourself to the public beach! At Bridgman Dunes, everything you need to feel at home is inside the house. Everything you need to feel like you're a million miles away on vacation is one step out the door. That's what people say who visit Bridgman Dunes, it's so relaxing and fun for all ages that you don't feel the need to go anywhere else but enjoy the property and each other's company.
That is the beauty of Bridgman Dunes, giving you time to enjoy time together.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The design of Bridgman Dunes was specific to accommodate two families sharing the house but wanting room for privacy. We have 2 master-suites each with a master-bath. A full finished lower level with kitchenette, built in bunks and two more bedrooms and a bath. The huge theater room makes movies, xbox, or game time fun and away from the main living areas so that people in our group get to decide if they want a peaceful coffee on the sun-porch or a wild dance party on Xbox live! Down at the beach, lights mark your way to the built in fire-pit. Bench seating and a lake view double seated swing make this a great hang out and gathering spot. Upstairs there is a loft type play space that is a huge hit with the kids. Games and puzzles and toys fill the drawers and shelves from years gone by family fun. The out door deck wraps around to a pond filled with summer frogs making a relaxing waterfall effect! This and the constant sound of the waves lapping or thundering on the shore are unforgettable and can be heard from every room of the house.
