The space was a bit small for our size group but overall, we had a great experience. The outdoor space of this home was a little bit run down and could use some repair.

June 4 day rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is my second time at this cottage. It works great for my family. I loved everything about it. My only suggestion would be that there is some ants in the kitchen that you may want to spray and it would be nice if the screened in patio was cleaned a bit. There is a lot of stuff on the screens that make it hard to see out. Plus there is just a lot of cobwebs everywhere.

Nice view from screen porch and quick access to clubhouse. Size of the beach and qualty of sand at Lake Michigan access down street exceeded expectations. Interior of home in great shape, clean and kitchen well equipped. Exterior plus landscaping around home front back and along with lakeside patio/firepit area needs a refresh.

Graduation Getaway

We stayed with another family to celebrate a HS graduation. Was a really fun community with a lot of great activities! The house was really nice and perfect for two small families! The property managers were awesome! The house had a MAJOR plumbing issue upon arrival. Turns out that tree roots drilled through and clogged the main sewage line out to the street. This is entirely NOT the fault of the manager/owner, still they had an emergency plumber arrive within an hour on a Friday night to clean the line out. As they say, $h!t happens, LOL, but the property managers were rockstars about it!

A little Rough on the outside, Very Nice on the inside

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great rental experience with Beachwalk. The house is older and looks a little rough when we drove up. But inside, the house was very nice, clean with a Lot of Room. Kitchen and dining area and living room is huge. Kitchen had everything you needed , and they do have a keurig. The Wine refrigerator stored all our drinks. They had a lot of amenities not listed from fishing rods, a wagon, chairs, and a fire pit. There is a nice screened in porch. Michicgan Lake is quite a walk, glad we rented a golf cart. We reserved it the next year on the way out.

Great house for all ages

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well stocked house. In my opinion, the best location in Beachwalk--right on Lake Kai, steps from the fishing/swimming dock, 5-6 houses down from the pool and Beach Hut, and 10 minutes with wagon to Lake Michigan. Beds are comfortable. One upstairs bedroom gets a little cold with A/C but that's a negative you can look past!

Great time and location

Loved the house and set up. Lots of space. My wife and I and our five adult kids all stayed and we had plenty of room. Great screened in porch area and beautiful view of Lake Kai. Highly recommend.

Thanks for the memories, Beachwalk!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 4th Beachwalk Vacation, first time at Steel Away. It is a lovely property, the best location we've ever had, right on the boardwalk to get to Lake Kai rentals, the pool, the tennis court, etc. (The upstairs bedrooms were a bit challenging for 2 families of 4, since there was one room for two people, and two rooms for 3 people each, but we made it work.) Our only real issue was with the plumbing, and the management handled it well, sending someone to check on it right away, and then calling in the professionals when they discovered the severity of the problem. Resolved! Most of all, we appreciated having an option for a 1⁄2 week stay during a summer too heavily booked to get everyone together for a full week.

Perfect for a family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property was in the perfect location! It was right on the lake which provided a great view and was very close to the pool/lake activities/park/Lake Michigan. The house was a good size and layout for our 2 families which included 4 adults and 3 kids under 3. The outside could definitely use some upkeep but the inside was well maintained. The house also included chairs and umbrellas that we brought to Lake Michigan. We would definitely stay here again!

not with the negatives.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been here before Covid. This time the porch was not clean. Ash trays were filled. We arrived on time and were told it was not 4:00p.m. for entry. So we drove to the rental and found no one was around and we could have entered. Lady at desk said it was not ready. Not true, except for the porch and it was not cleaned.

Perfect Fit

This house was a perfect fit for us. The screened-in porch was great for meals and games. The second floor deck was great for lunches and sunning. The house is right off the fishing dock and between the pool and the boats. Clean and well equipped. 5 stars!
