Beautiful location and family friendly. We did have a negative experience with check in. We couldn’t get in and finally after talking with host, the realization was that it was never cleaned. So we had to wait for the cleaning person and for the cleaning to occur before we could move in. Thankfully we had the beach right there to occupy our 2 year old. It also wasn’t very well cleaned. But the host did give us some compensation and we ended up enjoying our time there.

Right on the beach!

Very nice cottage right on the beach. Great location. Can walk to town. Cottage was perfect for two but would be tight for 5-6. Mattress may be ready to be replaced. Owners were great answering questions.

Great cottage for a weekend girls trip! The view was beautiful and the beach was literally 3 steps off the deck. The cottage could use a little updating but it was the perfect size for 3 of us.

A dream stay

This is truly a place of dreams. The location is beyond perfect. We walked downtown for coffee every morning. Walked right off the deck everyday to the private beach. The nights could not be better to watch the sunset and sit around the fire pit with the other guests. We hope to spend many more years to come here. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay.

Vacation

This is a lovely cottage. Perfect location and steps away from the sand. Check-in was a bit late. Not bad. About 20 mins. I would suggest a more thorough cleaning. Under the queen bed was dust, dirt, paper/wrappers and sand. Same under the couch. Sand under the couch cushions. The pan cupboard was a mess. Everything just thrown in there. The shower needs a good scrub. Grout was dirty and you could see the soap scum. The ceiling fans make noise and could be replaced as well. Toilet runs and moves. Needs to be reset before plumbing issues start to occur. I normally would not post these things, but how will the owners know if we don’t. Other than that, I had a perfect vacation! Thank you.

Perfect off season getaway

Gorgeous beachfront to enjoy. Pics of the interior are accurate. It’s easy and relaxed. Not like a super “fancy” inside, but perfect for lying on the couch and watching the lake or sunset. And walking right out the door straight to the beach every morning. Booked off season for better rates and less crowded beach and luckily the weather cooperated. Also took a day trip to the Holland tulip festival which was delightful. I can see why families return here year after year! (*note there was some digging happening with big diggers in the area leading down to the beach on Monday morning. Quiet otherwise. I had a sense it was to move more sand into that walk down to the beach before the summer season started, so probably not an issue for on season guests).
