The house was clean, bathrooms clean with nice bath towels, and the kitchen had all the essential kitchen amenities needed. The check in process was easy, the property owners communicated with me prior to check in and provided all information needed. The biggest dissappointment was that lake access was down a flight of steep deck stairs. The posted photo led us to believe that lake access was a gentle slope down the backyard and that was not the case. Overall, we were satisfied with the stay, the location was close to all the activities we were doing and the neighborhood was quiet.

Great place to stay for our family! The cleanliness and stocked supplies of the house, location (quiet and yet close to the beach and dunes), and prompt communications made the vacation just that. The binder and brochures within the house gave insights into other resources and activities to do in the nearby area as well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Absolutely amazing! We were so relieved to find a place that could accommodate our pup so that we could bring her with us on our vacation. The check-in/out process was extremely easy and the hosts were very responsive to all communication. The pictures online were great, but the house was even more beautiful once we arrived. The neighborhood was very quiet and perfect for a peaceful, relaxing weekend away. We would absolutely book here again and highly recommend this place to anyone, especially those looking to travel with pets.

Nice little house

Overall we had a good stay. The house is at a good location with easy access to the dunes. There is plenty of room for multiple vehicles. The kitchen is well equipped and overall the house was clean. We enjoyed the fire pit and outside seating. The house technically sleeps 7, we had 8 people including 4 kids (there is an air mattress which fits in the sunroom) so it ended up being slightly cramped for us.

Lovely home in beautiful area!

Sherry was super helpful and responsive, and the home is so lovely and quiet. And so many fun things to do nearby! The dunes, swimming, hiking. Lovely. The only suggestions I'd offer is that guests should be provided with a few more amenities so they don't have to pack little used items like butter, cooking oil, herbs and spices, ketchup and mustard, etc. Also it would be helpful to provide more than two each of laundry and dishwasher pods and dishwasher, and extra rolls of toilet paper. Finally, curtains in the bedrooms would do a lot to cut the light. We had two kids with us and trying to get them to go to sleep while light was coming in the window was difficult. All in all though, we had an absolutely delightful time in a very comfortable home with many nearby attractions. Thank you!

Nice stay

We really enjoyed the house but there were a few upgrades/repairs that could be made. The house does not have an address number that’s easily visible so we weren’t sure if we were at the right home at first. The house looks like it’s been remodeled, which looks great but things such as the trash can being broken, the windows not opening, ceiling fan not working, the stovetop not working well among other small things were a bit of an annoyance. Other than that, it’s a cozy house to stay in and are thankful to the owners for opening their home to us.

Great location for all the area has to offer.

The hosts for this property were very helpful and responsive. We enjoyed being on a private drive with minimal traffic and a nice view of the lake. The house has nice accommodations; comfy beds and a nice living room. We were not able to take advantage of the nice outdoor space due to the temperatures, but it would be lovely in the summer. The access to the lake was disappointing. We did not even attempt to try to carry our kayaks down the narrow stairway as the dock was surrounded by scummy, stagnant water. Luckily there were plenty of other areas that had easy public access. The driveway was very accommodating for our trailer and truck, the half moon shape made it very nice for maneuvering.
