Really great location

If you need a close spot to the dunes, this is it. Walkable to the dunes parking lot. Very nice inside. The beds were all too small for our preference and we are tv people so we would have liked tv in the bedroom. But it’s was great for our quick weekend. Plenty of room to park a big (36’) trailer and truck, easy access. Nice place to walk dogs. We didn’t really stay long enough to use anything in the kitchen, and we usually pack our own paper products so we didn’t really get a chance to notice that, but there was sufficient paper towel and toilet paper for us. Thanks for a great stay!

10/10 experience!

This VRBO was perfect for our group of friends. We enjoyed being together in the spacious living room, gathering around the fire, and cooking together in the kitchen. We were seconds from the dune entrance so it made life way easier for those with kids who needed naps throughout the day. We cannot wait to be back!

Dune ready with a garage

This property is a great location for dune ready access and outdoor activity. It’s comfortable and spacious inside with an open floor plan. We loved all of the parking for our trucks and trailers. The house has been newly remodeled and the garage was great for entertainment and socializing. We would definitely book again!

Clean house in great proximity to dunes.

The house was clean and comfortable, plenty of parking for a large trailer, and had garage access for storing toys which was great. Able to easily ride toys right into the dunes without trailering. Great location!

Perfect location to the dunes!

We have stayed here twice now & will keep returning as long as they will have us. It’s a SUPER short distance to the dunes entrance, which makes it an easy “home base” for everyone. We had a rainy day during our stay and the garage was a perfect hang out spot when we couldn’t ride. The hosts are always extremely fast at responding and flexible with check in’s/outs. I would recommend this house for anyone with a large group wanting to come to the dunes for a weekend riding trip. It’s perfect!

Great location! Spacious house for family!

We will definitely be renting this place again! We were able to ride our SXS right up to the dune entrance, no need to trailer it! There was plently of parking spaces for our trailer and cars! The house was clean and spacious, perfectly sized for my family and my parents. Thank you for a great place for out last weekend on the dunes!

Perfect setup for a dunes trip

Not having to trailer our machines in and out of the dunes was very nice. The garage came in real handy for some late night wrenching we had to do. House was clean and overall very nice!!

Perfect house for the dunes

This house was perfect for our trip to silver lake sand dunes. It is about 2 blocks from the dune ORV entrance so we rode in and out and did not have to trailer. There was plenty of parking in the front. 5 trucks, 4 trailers and 6 SXS’s. The house was spacious with an open layout and big living room and kitchen. Big island in the kitchen was perfect to hang around and snack.The garage was available if we needed to work on anything. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Nice Place to Stay

The property is in a great location and has plenty of room for hanging out. Everything was very nice and exactly as advertised. My only complaint would be that the floors were very dirty to the point we took it upon ourselves to clean them the first day we were there. I am sure it was a over site given that fact that everything was clean and taken care of. We will be back.

Pros and Cons...

This property was conveniently located around the corner from the dunes and had plenty of parking. Property Manager was easy to reach and communicated with us. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. The house was very dirty upon checking in and the mattresses are really broken down.

Dune’s Trip

This house was perfect for our riding family for the weekend. We had tons of floor space for air mattresses. We used the fire pit every night after riding out on the dunes. The only flaw was the kitchen wasn’t as stocked (pots, sauce pans, cookie sheets, can opener…) as we have had in past rentals. Overall it was an excellent rental property for a large group of people coming up to the dunes for a weekend.

Perfect Place for ORV riders!

We had 3 different “families” stay with us. Each couple got a bed with room for their children to stay in the rooms with them as well (pack n play and toddler sized air mattress). The twin beds were perfect for my nephews:) Plenty of space inside and outside for a big group! We didn’t have as big of a group as expected but it fit 9 comfortably! The entrance to the ORV park is down the road, and the house has plenty of room for trailers and vehicles! Downtown is very close as well!

Great location!

This was our third year staying at this property. It did not disappoint, although there were a few things we were not prepared for. In prior years, there have been garbage bags and basic kitchen needs available (ziplocks, Saran, etc). This year it seemed as if they completely cleaned out every cabinet. We had to go up town and buy garbage bags and a few other things. No big deal, but something to be aware of. Other than that, we love the availability of the fire pit for the front and the backyard, the quick ride to the dunes (perfect for sunset cruisin), and the stick vacuum to pick up all the sand we trail in! Thank you for another great stay at silver lake :) Will definitely be staying next year!
