Great place to stay for beach vacation
Our family really enjoyed our stay at this house. Great location for beach, restaurants, orchards, and all the towns in southwest Michigan. Would definitely stay here again.

End of summer get-away
Our family had a great trip and overall enjoyed the house and property. The location was fantastic and we were close to all of our favorite spots. The yard and basketball hoop were great for the kids to play. The adults enjoyed the patio space. The interior of the house offered plenty of space for us to spread out and the kitchen was a great size to prepare and serve meals. We loved being able to gather at the table to eat and play games. A few things to note. Upon arrival there there was an old disposable mask very visible in the front landscaping that you walked right by to access the keypad. When we walked around back to enter the home, there were leftover toys/bug catchers on the patio tables. Once inside, we were greeted with old/empty hand sanitizer bottles in the kitchen window and a very dirty dish scrub and badly used sponge by the sink. These things did not make a great first impression. We moved the items out of site, but had to run to the store to purchase new sponges as well as hand soap. The bathrooms also did not have any hand soap. The rest of the house was ok. Nothing stood out as super dirty, but it wasn't spotless either. We have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years and this one was just ok. Nothing was bad enough to message the owner upon arrival. We had a great trip and the space worked out perfectly for our family, however we would not stay here again just based on personal preferences.

Downstairs was great for kids. The kitchen was very well stocked. I liked being close to Warren Dunes, but the proximity to the large road made it noisy to be outside. Bathroom on main floor was too small for two bedrooms and the water in that shower was only lukewarm.

Beach Vacation 2023
Overall the house and yard were great. The grandkids had a ball in the yard and the adults enjoyed the hot tub. We also had fires in the pit on several nights. We are very big beach people and it was not a short walk to the beach. Especially if you were carrying anything. It was ok though as I had bought all my kids state park passes for Christmas. Upon arrival my 9 year old grandson had to go to the bathroom. The first one he went into had the toilet bowl full of toilet paper. He decided not to use it but went to another one instead. My wife tried to flush it and it just filled with water. There was a plunger and I tried to plunge it with no use. I called Chris and he said he would get ahold of his plumber. In the mean time I found a different plunger in the master bath and tried it. After several attempts it worked. As I was looking for my phone to call Chris back he called to say the plumber was in the area and would be there shortly. I let him know it was not needed after all. The only other issue was that upon arrival I'm not sure the floors were all that clean. One of my sons showed up shortly after us and he said the floors felt sandy. He proceeded to sweep in every room and came away with a nice size pile of sand in every room on the main floor. Again, my family had a great week and the owner was very responsive when needed.

Fabulous location for a framily gathering!
We had an amazing time with our friends (that are more like family) this weekend. The home is exactly what I would want my Michigan home to be!! It is cozy and perfect for a gathering! The movie room, ping pong table, fire pit, and hot tub put it over the top in our book!

About the host

Hosted by Sawyer Summer House

Host profile image
We have been leasing homes in the area for many many years and have decided to purchase and renovate so we may share our home with all of you. Managing property for the last 16 years makes this a simple choice for us and we hope to host you year after year.

Why they chose this property

It was important to us to find a large home that needed a renovation, with lots of land on the West side of Red Arrow (that's the beach side) , many bedrooms, at least 3 bathrooms and 2 floors this home sleeps 10 adults comfortably + kids with a few options for additional sleeping arrangements (please inquire) . While we love love love our kids, separation is a must and two floor living allows for that separation. Spring of 2016 we installed an outdoor shower, a post beach day necessity, and poured a new stamped concrete patio and fire pit. Well let's face it . . . the whole house has gotten a bit of a face lift. Our search for the right home did not last long . . . we know the area well and it always came back to location and land on the lake side of Red Arrow.

What makes this property unique

The benefit of space, both indoors and out, are the makings of a great vacation. No one want's to feel cramped, on top of another or their own family for that matter. With 6 true bedrooms (3 up and 3 down) a plethora of bunks a master bedroom with king bed and 3 queen/full beds in the other 3 bedrooms , large basement with projection screen, ping pong table and partial second kitchen, there truly is space for everyone. Newly poured basketball court with regulation hoop, rear patio and front walk way. Refreshing the landscaping is ongoing and did I mention the tree house? Yes, we also have a tree house. The kitchen has expansive counter space, brand new stainless appliance and is stocked for crowds. Entertaining is a breeze . . . speaking of a breeze, throw open the doors to the sun room just off the dining room and bring the outside in. The front porch is a wonderful place to rock and enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning. So peaceful, you may even see the deer run by or rabbits scurry thru the yard. The living room and dining room are outfitted with new furniture, a wood burning fireplace and flat screen TV (if you must on vacation). In the immediate area you will find several wineries and breweries.
