Perfect family getaway

We loved everything. It was listed as a villa on the beach, so I didn’t know what to expect. The condo complex did have some units with patio or deck views of the water. Ours did not, but we loved how easy it was to see the lake or get down to our PRIVATE, BEAUTIFUL, soft-sanded beach. The deck and porch space was large and comfortable and there’s a small yard for the kids to play or have a bonfire. The villa was clean and well-taken care of. We did some sight-seeing things but my 4 and 5 year old couldn’t ever wait to get back to our “holiday house“ with a pool and the “ocean”.

Wonderful stay

Easy check in, beautiful updates. Golf cart is a wonderful addition to this place! The outside area is so nice to enjoy time outside when back up at the condo. Beach is private and peaceful. Kiddos enjoyed picking up rocks and sea glass. This is our 2nd year staying and we will be back again next year!

Great family weekend

This condo was small but really just perfect for us. They had everything we needed for cooking and grilling. The golf cart was great to get down to the beach. I did walk the hill for exercise. We met some neighbors who.were super nice. My teens took advantage of the wifi. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. I cant say enough about the private beach. TLake Michigan will forever be my happy place.

Peaceful beach serenity

This beautiful beach condo is so wonderful, close to anything you need or want. Gorgeous private beach. Sunsets, swimming or just relaxing. We was there during the week of the 4th of July but still had no crowds and lots of peacefulness. A nice quiet area. Worked great for our disabled son. Definitely felt like a home away from home. Russ and Julie are great and truly want you to have a great vacation. Was sad to go home...We'll be back to this beautiful place.

Great Get-Away

This property was in a perfect location if you are looking for a private Get-Away feel. The beach was beautiful and easily accessible with the golf cart provided with the rental. The lake water was clear and fun to swim in, even with younger kids. The water was a bit chilly, but to be expected for this time of year. The only negative we experienced was that the pool was closed during our entire stay due to a maintenance issue. This was a huge disappointment to our kids, but we do realize it is not this property owners fault, but an HOA issue for not having notified the owners appropriately. We notified the owners and they responded immediately to us. Otherwise, the condo was just as described. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and spices, the living room was comfortable, and the beds were very comfortable. It was a great bonus to be able to use the laundry while there as well. This location is only 10-15 minutes from larger towns so there is plenty to do if you want, but the private beach feel is unmatched. It is truly a gem and we would 100% stay here again.

Great place for a couple to get a way

The apartment was beautiful and very clean. We didn't cook in so we really didn't use the kitchen other than to make coffee. It was rainy and cool while we were there, so we weren't able to use the deck or walk on the beach. We were a bit disappointed that there was not a lake view from our deck. The listing said "lake front." The building is lakefront, but our apartment was in the back side of the building, so there was no lake view unless we walked around the building to the lake side. If we would ever choose to rent this property again, we would request an apartment on the actual lake front side of the building.

Peaceful Property

This property is a little bit of heaven on earth. From the relaxing wooded area around the condo, to the beautiful private beach down below. Our favorite place to get away. The condo was wonderful. Had everything we needed with 2 small children and Russ was great with answering any questions right away!

Wonderful Stay!

Very spacious, clean and convenient place to stay! We enjoyed the porch and loved the cute living space. It worked well for our family of 6. We have kiddos 6 and under and it worked well for us. The laundry room was wonderful! We used it every day! Kitchen was fully stocked and had all we needed. Loved that this condo had a bath tub and shower combo to give our kiddos a bath after a day at the beach! Golf cart is an absolute gem to have, especially going up and down the hill to the beach. Overall, excellent stay and will be back 😊

Location!

Wonderful beach location! The view from the condo bluff was breathtaking for sunsets, the private beach was exactly what my family of 6 was looking for! The condo it’s self was clean and good size. The beds we’re comfortable, kitchen was fully stocked. It had everything we needed, especially appreciated the washer and dryer and the golf cart which made getting to and from the beach a breeze! The pool was warm and bigger then the pictures! We are already hoping to come back next year!

Lovely home

My family of 5 had the best week here! I was worried it would be too small for my husband and I and our 3 kids ranging from 2-9 but with the open concept and amount of outside space with the deck it never felt cramped. Amazing location, fully stocked kitchen, beautifully decorated. Would love to stay here again next summer!

Lake Michigan Vacation

The property was exactly as pictured , well supplied with everything you would need and very clean. The beds were so comfortable, slept wonderful! With short distance to the other little towns to shops and site see. Would definitely stay again if in the area! The lake and beach were also beautiful. Did not get to the pool so unable to speak about it but looked very inviting!

Tranquil Coloma trip

We loved the villa and it worked wonderful for our disabled son just like Russ said it would. Had my daughter, husband and grandkids over for cookouts and swimming at the beach. Plenty of room for all of us on the deck and such easy access to the beach and the pool. The golf cart made it especially easy for our son. The beach being private made it so tranquil and the area was quiet and relaxing. Thank you for a beautiful, peaceful place for our family vacation our. Hoping to come back for the 4th of July next year.
