Phil R., Plainwell Michigan

Good house for a beach visit, an easy 10 minute walk down little-traffic streets, and the available wagon makes hauling beach stuff and a toddler manageable (there’s no parking at the beach). And the beach is wonderful. The house itself is a bit dated and not super-well maintained for the price. It’s a two story place with the main living area up a half flight of stairs from the front door, and the downstairs down a half flight so that the downstairs is basement-like with small windows. Which is fine since there’s only a bedroom and recreation/ tv area downstairs, but know that there’s little ventilation downstairs and during our visit it smelled musty so we slept only upstairs. Upstairs was fine. And the owner and manager were super helpful pre-visit.

Three generations of family stayed for a long weekend at this house. We all had a great time. House is maintained and has nice touches such as big comfy couches, a large screen tv, screened in porch, fire pit, and basketball court (all of which we used). Beach is about a 10-12 minutes walk, and is very nice. We plan to rent here again next year!

Great place to stay

the neighborhood was very nice and quiet and the home allowed us to spend some wonderful family time together. It's location and proximity to the lake was perfect. The property managers were both kind and helpful and quick to return and act upon any questions or concerns that we had.
