Beautiful home and Lake Michigan beach

The home was very clean and looked just like the photos. The hardwood floors are beautiful. The kitchen was current and well supplied. The internet and tv worked. The beach and sand in the lake were as beautiful as any in the U.S. or the world. There was a lot to do in the area also.

Relaxing vacation away from the hustle of a city

We loved our stay, this was our first time in 5 years breaking our tradition of going to Florida for the 4th! The property is actually bigger to me than in the photos! And just as nice! We loved the house and the room it had to offer! Between 2 families (4 adults, 4 girls 2.5-14yrs) we had plenty of room to get little ones to bed before others and no one was on top of each other getting ready. We LOVED the area, the beach, the woods, and the people in the neighborhood were so nice! I will say that if you are looking for something that is close to a town with plenty of dining options this may not be for you. It’s about 15 minutes to town and not a whole lot of options. That doesn’t mean that what is there isn’t amazing, because it was. Overall I can’t say anything bad about the property or the area! We had a great time and 10/10 would recommend and definitely would love to come back again!

Amazing views/private beach.

Family and I usually stay in the mountains on our 1 big vacation of the year but due to our daughters college classes we went earlier than normal so we did the lake trip for the first time. Zero regrets. First night was the clearest we have ever seen and my daughter and I watched meteor showers for hours. Beautiful weather all week led to a ton of great lake time. Close proximity to an amazing little town. Having access to two Kayaks was a welcome surprise as my older daughter taught our youngest son how to use them. He’s a natural! Anything you might need is in the house. Tons of bath and beach towels. Beach chairs. Boogie boards. Kids life jackets. Tons of books and games. Did i mentions the views? 2 out of the 3 bedrooms have amazing views and the house faces towards the sunsets. Host Kristina was very responsive and extremely helpful. I see some complaints about the driveway. It really is not bad. We had a chevy malibu get up and down no problem and being able to pull up right to the door to unpack and pack was awesome. When you see the other houses in this area with a giant stairway to heaven, you will truly appreciate the driveway. We just might need to stay here again in the future!

We couldn’t have asked for more! Beautiful house on a quiet road with incredible Lake Michigan views from three different decks - what a way to enjoy your morning coffee! Cottage has everything you could need with comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen and a generous mini library of books to enjoy during your stay.

Great Boys Board Game Weekend

We stayed here with my 4 sons and one of their friends to play board games for the weekends. It was an amazingly great space for us. Clean and comfortable. The driveway is a little sus, as it is super steep. But there was plenty of room for our 3 vehicles. And gorgeous views of Lake Michigan. Any thanks to our friendly hosts for making this possible!

About the host

Hosted by Kristina and Rich

Host profile image
Rich and Kristina bought this house in 2020 during summer of Covid as an escape from their urban lives outside of Chicago. They are thrilled to share their peaceful getaway with others looking to slow down and relax in a beautiful beachside setting.

Why they chose this property

The second we set eyes on this house we knew it was the perfect vacation home. When you emerge out of the winding woods, turn onto the road, and see the vast deep blue waves of Lake Michigan, it will take your breath away. As a family that relocated from the east coast, we love Lake Michigan because it is as close as you can get to ocean living while still being in the midwest. This house is unlike other vacation homes in that it provides all the comfortable modern conveniences of home, but in a spectacular resort like setting.

What makes this property unique

+ We love its proximity to the beach. You literally open the door and walk a few steps and you are swimming in the water. We also love being able to take long walks on the beach whenever we want.
+ The large 3 decks make it ideal for hanging out with a glass of wine and soaking in the views.
+ We love that Meinert Park is at the end of the road. There is nothing more exhilarating that climbing up a large dune and then running down at top speed!
+ We love that the house is close to nearby shopping and restaurants and also activities like horseback riding and biking trails.
