The house was beautiful and fit our family reunion needs for 12 very well. The kids loved having the pool, slide and hot tub, and the adults appreciated the spaciousness of the house and wonderful grounds. The pool and hotub were clean and warm and Tonya was responsive. The location was also great, quaint Union Pier, Warren Dunes, and New Buffalo are all easily accessible. We hope to be back.

Even Better Than Expected

This house was even better than the pictures. It was absolutely gorgeous and so clean. The weather wasn’t great, but we didn’t even mind because the house was so comfortable and spacious. The hosts were extremely kind and responsive as well. We can’t wait to come back!
