can’t recommend this place highly enough! property was even better in person, and the location was stunning. we spent most of our time on-site, but enjoyed the close proximity to several beach towns. amenities were great, and we particularly enjoyed the hot tub, private dock/boats, and the fire pit. we were super impressed by the cleanliness and the attention to even the smallest detail (it was so nice arriving to full trays of ice and a selection of coffee pods!). no issues during our stay, but reached out to the host with a couple of questions and got prompt and thorough responses every time. hoping we can stay here again someday - it was a wonderful experience!

Perfect place for a getaway

My girlfriend and I are small business owners and have been going non stop for a year and a half and needed a few days to do absolutely nothing and this was the perfect location to go off grid and just be still. It was so quiet and the house was just the perfect size for us. The hot tub was nice and we used the paddleboat while we were there. Having breakfast out on the front porch with nature was the perfect setting to start the day. We wanted to go somewhere where we wouldn't be bothered and this was perfect. We read books, napped, watched tv (which we never do), went for walks, watched the sunset on the porch, had a nice fire in the firepit and just enjoyed each other's attention. Perfect getaway. Communication from the owner was quick and pleasant. Will be staying again hopefully sooner than another year and a half.

Great spot!

We really enjoyed our stay! We loved the quick access to the lake (less than 30 second walk), and kayaking. The cabin is up on a hill in the trees, even with a couple of other houses around it is very quiet and peaceful. We will definitely want to stay here again!

A great property to get away while still being near everything.

My wife and I had a short vacation and it was great. Property is very private/secluded yet you are still only 10 minutes away from restaurants and grocery stores. In addition you are no more than 1 hour away from all of SW Michigans great beach towns (St. Joe, South Haven, Holland, Saugatuck). Property was very clean, had everything we need and check in/check out was very smooth. Highly recommend staying here
