My daughters and I enjoyed our stay in this cozy house. This has a stunning view of Lake Michigan, is quiet and the owner graciously shares main house area with fire table and hot tub feet away from Lake Michigan.It has an amazing view of the sunset and is in walking distance to Grand Mere Park with public beach. It was fun to hike and explore. Stunning location!

We love that the property was amongst gravel, roads and trees. Yet we had sight of Lake Michigan. Was surprised there was no private beach to get to, but it was beautiful seeing the water on the large rocks, a little confusing, knowing which house and the address that we figured it out :-) I would definitely recommend it! We had a wonderful time!

This is a great peaceful get away for adults. We loved sitting and listening to the birds while watching the beautiful lake. The sunset was right in front of the place. Our bed and couch were very comfy and the host is very responsive. Lots of great food nearby too. We look forward to staying again soon.

Great location
This is a coach house behind the main house. The host allows guests to use the patio attached to the main house, which is wonderful because it oversees Lake Michigan. As I was enjoying a glass one wine on my first evening there, a herron landed in the tree right next to my chair. I loved hiking in Gran Mere Park, which is a mere 5 minute walk from the house. In the park, you can hike in the woods, or out over the dunes and onto the shore. Lovely!

New to VRBO, but NOT new to hosting!
We decided to try this new VRBO listing and I'm sure glad that we did. The host has been on other sites for years and knows what he's doing (reviews there are stellar). The coach house was extremely clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. The neighborhood is very quiet and relaxing. The patio and firepit made for excellent evenings outside, viewing the lake and listening to the waves break over the rocks below. The sunsets were spectacular! Two small beaches within easy walking distance and several others within a short drive. Breweries and wineries galore! We met John during our stay and had several pleasant conversations. Don't miss this property...it's a great one!!
