Amazing A+ stay!

Can't say enough great things about this property. Family reunion from Boston, OH and Milwaukee. We had 14 people ages 12-70 and a toddler. This property has everything you need. The owner was easy to contact for any questions and property description is perfect. 82 steps down to Beachwalk "Main St"/ pool etc and a block from Lake MI. 3 flights in the actual home but didn't feel like we were doing stairs at all b/c it is such a great floor plan. Room for everyone on the couch or to hang out in cozy spots for a nap in the sun or to read. The kitchen is one of the best stocked kitchens we've ever had at a VRBO. We'd come back in a second b/c there is something for everyone at this location. We fit 4 cars in the driveway/ parking area- (a Highlander, 2 RAV-4 and a Honda civic) and one in overflow parking which was readily available. Appreciated the huge laundry room, efficient and new appliances throughout and the AC! Plus all of the beach amenities like tons of towels, chairs, wagon and toys.

Fantastic property!

We had 8 adults and 7 young kids. This house was so spacious and allowed everyone to spread out. The views from the house are stunning and it was furnished with everything we could've needed, including chairs, umbrellas, and toys for the beach. This house is such a gem. The only downside is the driveway being pretty steep. The larger vehicles were a little harder to navigate but it definitely wasn't a deal-breaker issue. we would love to stay here again!

Great house for large group

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was spotless and very well equipped, even beach chairs and towels. Awesome kitchen, dining, living area combined. We took advantage of the pool, tennis/pickle ball court, and ping pong. Be warned, however, that the house itself has MANY stairs and the walk to the beach and pool also involves MANY stairs.

It's actually worth it to climb this mountain

We rented as part of a gathering of extended family; there were 10 adults and a 1-year-old in the house. Because we were meeting at others' homes (some rented, some not), we went up and down the hill numerous times per day. It's a challenge. It's also a challenge to get a car with low ground clearance up the hill and into the parking spaces in front of the house (we scratched our front air dam every time, although my sister with an SUV had no problem). Great views from the top two floors of the house, but a LOT of stairs (house is tall & narrow). The owner is honest in his listing about the challenge posed by the stairs and the hill, so we were okay, although by the last night of our 4 day stay I swore I wasn't doing down that hill on foot again for anything short of life and death. The owner is very helpful, reasonable, and cooperative. I'm 75, and I think I would rent the house again.
