Really easy check in process and amazing communication with the host. We stayed here last year as well and will probably be using this place every year we come to the dunes. The place had bed linen, towels, kitchen utensils, propane for the grill, garbage bags, fire starters, and laundry. Couple of spiders/bugs here and there, but overall a great place to stay for the weekend. If you have a big group, would recommend some bringing their own shower towels.

Jon was easy to get a hold of and he answered me right away. My family enjoyed staying there. There was 10 of us and plenty of room in this home for all of us. I cooked a couple of meals a day here & there was plenty of dishes, pan, & utensils to accommodate us. It is very close to everything we wanted to visit, Lake Michigan, sand dunes, light house, and fun stuff and good eats downtown. I would stay there again.

Perfect place for multiple families! Great location and great outdoor area for bonfires and for kids to play. The house has a "lived in" feel and that helped put me at ease with having younger children. I wasn't constantly on edge fearing my kids would break something. We will definitely book this house again!

Perfect location, clean, great communication

We gad a fantastic week out here. This home is central to everything silver lake. Its located in a nice quiet community & has access to a pool & playground. Home was very clean. We had a fantastic time. We would rent this property again. This home would also be a great option for two families to stay as the basement has two bunk beds perfect for putting all the kids downstairs & then there are 3 bedrooms.

October Visit

This house was great for our group of 4 friends! Plenty of space and having two bathrooms with showers helped. Amazing communication with the owners. There is kitchen supplies, propane for the grill, campfire, towels, sheets, and washer/dryer. They even had fans in the rooms for us! Parking was a bit difficult just because we had big truck trailers for the dunes, but we made it work without blocking the neighbors. I would stay here again and would recommend!
