Wonderful

The house is absolutely gorgeous. Very clean when we arrived. They have all beach supplies and full kitchen supplies. Big bedrooms, lots of room for families or couples. Love the beach access. We would definitely come back.

Definitely recommend

Our group totally loved this property. The beach is a short walk and we really liked the included beach chairs and towels. The screened-in back porch and fire pit were great for relaxing. We also thought the antique stores in Union Pier were excellent. We noticed the occasional train passing, but it wasn’t overly noisy. Absolutely recommend this property and would definitely stay again.

Comfortable house. Generous size layout. Nice fire pit, wood fully stocked. 10 minute walk to lovely beach. Very close to Red Arrow Road House and Whistle Stop. Lot of personal touches. Lots of beach toys and games.

Lovely home, some communication issues with management

The home itself was lovely, with a well appointed kitchen and lots of beach supplies and a cart to help with the 10 minute walk there. The pillows need an upgrade and there need to be 4 of them on a queen size bed, that's just standard. WAYA management was really poor and I suggest the owners switch to Bluefish.

Beautiful home

We had a wonderful stay at the Hidden Gem. The house is beautiful with lots of space. The beds were super comfortable. The outdoor space was awesome. We had a memorable long walk on the beach, which is a short walk from the house. The kitchen was really nice with everything we needed. We really didn't want to leave and hope to come back for a longer stay in the future.

End of summer getaway

Great spot, comfortable with all the amenities. Once we got used to train & traffic-too bad it’s so close to RAH’way.

Beach getaway

Perfect house! Interior and exterior spaces were flawless. Beach was roughly an 8 minute walk. Enjoyed this rental immensely. It was perfect for our little family getaway.

Fall getaway

We enjoyed this property very much. The house was very clean and comfortable for 4 adults. We especially liked the screened in porch. The kitchen is great size and fully stocked with equipment. At certain times of the day, the location right off a major road was noisy, but overall not bad. Nice short walk to a nice beach.

Hidden Gem review

A little too close to the railroad tracks. Very loud. Screen porch furniture is very uncomfortable.

Cute Home

We thorougly enjoyed this lovely home. The only problem we had was with the door locks. They were difficult to manipulate. We would rent again, but only if locks have been changed. Thank you for a restful, relaxing vacation.

Amazing Union Pier Vacaton

We absolutely loved this property! The space was perfect for our family getaway! The open layout was perfect for our 2-year-old to get around, the kitchen was amazingly stocked and supplied, and our favorite part was the screened-in back porch. We spent the most time there - playing games and having meals on the rainy days! The beach access (hill) was a little tough for our youngest and oldest members, but we appreciated how close it was! We'll miss the nightly bags tournements and game nights after full fun days in the sun!

Union pier gem

We stayed here a week with our two boys 3 and 5. The house is great- high ceilings, clean and larger than most rentals in the neighborhood. It’s got a great back yard that’s fenced where our boys could play and had a fire pit for adults and smores! Location was great you can walk to Roadhouse and whistle stop cafe easily for coffee, lunch or dinner. Izzys, Union Pier market, Milda’s and Black Current are a longer walk but close none the less. The beach is a 10 minute walk - bring a beach wagon and head to Berrien beach and enjoy the day. The house does have beach toys, wagon, umbrella, etc… if you want o rent them. We were a little nervous being so close to Red Arrow highway , but it is a none issue as the house has great foliage to block the road. Rent this house you won’t regret it.

House was beautiful, very comfortable but Location was disappointing

The house was beautiful and comfy. Linens and art was beautiful. The back porch was where we spent most of our time. Great for game playing, cards or just reading I was personally disappointed in the location. The house was right next to the highway and there was a lot of traffic noise. All in all we had a wonderful week tho

Cutest Lake House!!!

My family and I had an absolute blast. The home is clean and so comfortable. We kept saying that it felt like our own and honestly I would decorate it the exact same way! We walked to the beach with our one and four year old which is only a block away. We would walk just a few min to grab coffee, wine and snacks at the little store on the corner. Our favorite part was the screened in porch on the back. We hung out there ever night and had a bonfire each night. Very sad to leave but we will definitely book this place again.

Pefect Family Getaway

House layout was perfect for our family getaway (6 adults). Beautiful decor and very comfortable beds. Well-stocked kitchen made meal prep easy. Nice size dining table for meals and playing games. Comfy living room for just hanging out. Very weak internet so don't plan on streaming any TV...bring DVDs.

Beautiful home!

We loved staying in this hidden gem for a girls weekend! We walked to the Whistle Stop each morning for our coffee and enjoyed it on the awesome screened in porch. Loved the bedroom off the porch and the spacious kitchen! Everything was great!
