The house was good and in a good location. It fit our party well. We did have issues with the dishwasher, which we were told were going to be addressed. They were not addressed and we ended up getting it working (mostly) on our own. There also were no blinds or curtains over the windows into the master bedroom, which looks out onto the dining table. Privacy would be nice. The golf cart was a big hit with the family! :)

The property was delightful and spacious! The views from the second and third floor are beautiful! The bunk room on the third floor is so fun and our group loved the bedding and decor. The walk to Lake Michigan is very short and the house is situated by the pool and sand volleyball court. We had a great time!

Nice but stingy

This property has a nice array of bedrooms for lots of folks. But the living area did not have great seating (outdoor couches?) and was uncomfortable for 10 people. It needs a furniture upgrade, and maybe a new addition.

Great place to stay; beautiful and fun!

We had a great stay at Vacation Station! The house was roomy and lovely, very clean, pet friendly, and in a great location; near the lake, zoo, park and all of the amenities in Beachwalk. The Beachwalk community was beautiful and had all kinds of family friendly amenities. We loved it, and will definitely stay again!

Wonderful Stay

The house and location was perfect for our needs. The pool was closed for a while when we were there, which was unfortunate. However it couldn't be helped because someone had gotten sick in the pool and it had to be cleaned an sanitized. The pool opened the next day. They took care of the matter in a timely fashion.
