Darling place for a single traveler, everything I needed. Awesome shower! Only a block from Union Pier public beach access. Steps from Whistle Stop coffee & market. Convenient parking. I met Annette and told her about a smell in the unit. Maybe cat spray? She was lovely. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The bungalow was darling!! Had everything you could need & shower was amazing!! Great location too! Would definitely comeback! Only thought was that if you had mobility issues the gravel parking area & flagstone pathway may be difficult to maneuver. We took it slowly & did fine!! The path is really cute & not that long though!!
