We had a wonderful stay! The home was comfortable, well maintained, and in a great location. We especially enjoyed the fire pit, hot tub, and cozy fireplace, which made for some really relaxing evenings. The host was fantastic—thoughtful, responsive, and accommodating throughout our stay. It was clear they genuinely cared about making our experience a great one, and we really appreciated the hospitality. Overall, a wonderful place for a family getaway, and we would happily stay again!

It really made my day!!!

You guys were great. Hope to see you next year.
Great relaxing Union Pier vacation! This place was perfect. We liked walking downtown to Black Currant Bakery, Union Pier Social, and of course that gorgeous Townline Rd beach. The farmers market at Skips, the RoadHouse, and the Whistle Stop were close too. Perfect biking along Lake Shore Rd and throughout the farms and fields heading east. Very clean and spacious place. Hot tub was great after all that biking and hiking. Jonina was a pleasure to deal with.We’ll be back!
The home was a perfect size for 6 adults and 2 children. This is our third stay here and it feels like home. Everything is clean and well maintained. The trees and bushes add to privacy and quiet. We had 0everything we needed for a relazing vacation. There was a lot to do in the area including peach picking and the county fair. We tried a different beach Weko beach in an effort to avoid stairs.

Great to have you with us at Cardinal again!

Property was very clean, the outside would be nicer if the trees/shrubs were trimmed. Hard to keep up with that in the summertime, but it didn’t stop us from enjoying the patio! Unfortunately we lost power due to a storm for a few hours but the host was very communicative about its restoration. Overall a good experience.

It’s a great place to stay and very clean.
Nice size bedrooms and clean spacious bathrooms.
The location is great for easy access to shops and other small towns.
Quick trip before our kids go back to highschool and college. Very nice place. We would stay here again. Loved the pastries from Black Currant Bakehouse not far from the house.

Highly recommended!

Families with kids staying for the weekend. Everyone was comfortable and it had great proximity to the beach. The only drawback is the layout of the living room furniture. There's not a huge sectional/sitting area for everyone to be at the same time, but we made it work and would still stay here again in the future.
