Almost on the beach
Great location next to wonderful beach. Reasonable amenities were included in a much smaller than expected "vintage" house. Four bedrooms that were squeezed in were at the expense of closets and a washer and dryer.

Quaint Cottage By Lake Michigan
This was an older cottage but really loved it! It was clean and had just about anything you could want available to you. Plenty of room for 8 people and Lake Michigan beach just a short walk away!

Great Location for Beach
House is perfectly located if you want to spend your time on the beach, but is also comfortable enough to spend a rainy day in it. 4 bedrooms, 2 baths. Kitchen is nicely sized with counter space and a full-size fridge. Living area has a comfy couch and dining room table. Front porch has table and chairs along with space to drop your beach chairs and coolers. I'd recommend walking the short block down to the more public beach access, as the plastic handicap accessible walkway is easier to walk up when carrying coolers and chairs. Beach was great. We would definitely rent again.

Another great beach stay
We enjoyed another easy, fun beach stay at the dune cottage with two children, our dog, and a family guest. Plenty of room in the home and all the amenities that you need to enjoy time on the beach and to explore the area.

Hidden Gem
Loved our stay at this cute beach cottage! Tucked away in a quiet spot on a sandy path to the beach, we walked to the beach every day and really appreciated the beach chairs. The cozy front patio was perfect for morning coffee, reading and playing cards. In the evening we were just minutes away from great restaurants for dinner. Owners were great to work with and very responsive.
