Super Cozy MI Loft

We planned a last minute girls getaway trip to MI and the loft was perfect for us! The check in process was super easy and quick and the host was readily available for our few inquiries. The condo was immaculately clean and had everything we needed, and more. Will definitely book for the summer so we can enjoy the beach and dunes.

Little Gem

Gorgeous/immaculate property in a serene setting--unless there's a train :) My friends and I had a wonderful stay on our girls' trip. Manager of property gave plenty of suggestions for our group of 8 women and was very prompt in responding to questions. Had a very minor issue with a drain and she was there right away to fix the problem. Loved the location, in-between several beaches/small towns. Would definitely recommend property!!

Spacious, Clean, Good Location

We really enjoyed our stay here. Beautiful loft with many thoughtful details. Plenty of space to accommodate 9 of us comfortably. Extremely clean. Highly recommend. Just down the street from Warren State Dunes/Beach. Also close to New Buffalo and St. Joseph. Note: there are train tracks very close by but this is not bother us at all.

Vacation time was great.

Clean spacious rental condo. Looks exactly how the pictures looked. Renter was easy to communicate with and answered any questions we had. Loved everything that was available for us to use. Location is amazing for all local destinations. Bakeries, beaches, parks and shopping all within 30 minutes of rental. It’s right off the main road but also very private. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this property!

Lovely Loft

This property was even more lovely in person. The owners anticipated every possible need a guest might have…and then some. The beds were very comfortable. We drove approximately 3 mi. to Warren Dunes/ beach/ dog beach, which I highly recommend. Potential guests should know that there are train tracks nearby & the train can be heard a few times a day, but it did not bother us at all. We would definitely stay here again if in the area & will highly recommend it to our friends.

Great location on Lake Michigan

The condo was very clean and loved the modern decor. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds comfortable. VRBO info says it is 1/2 mi walk to the beach but it is actually about 1 to 1 1/4 mile. There is some parking if you wish to drive and there are stairs down to the waterfront. There is a public beach nearby that is very nice, Cherry Beach, but it also has many stairs down to the water which would be a problem for those with limited mobility. You have to drive to most restaurants. Only a few are within walking distance. Many restaurants are open only Wed through Sun which was a problem. The railroad tracks are next door but only a few trains come by during the day or night and most are very small. We could hear the footsteps of the people living above us which was disappointing but not a deal breaker.

Exceeded Expectations

The pictures don’t do this place justice. It’s in a super cute community of condos with well-maintained green spaces and plenty of trees to make you feel secluded from the main road. We were so surprised to find a restaurant on-site, which we walked to for dinner on our first night. The condo itself had more amenities than a hotel….extra toothbrushes, makeup wipes, snacks—I was blown away by the thought that went into our stay. The condo is bigger and longer than the pictures appear: huge bedrooms, huge bathrooms, and the private back patio was a great bonus since the weather was so wonderful during our stay. It’s the perfect spot for families or a group of friends looking to enjoy the wine trail or a weekend at the beach. Would absolutely recommend to others and hope to come again!!

Weekend getaway

The pictures don’t do this place justice. Such a lovely place off of red arrow near all the quaint towns around it. The place is immaculate and has all the amenities that are needed. Bedrooms are all away from the living/gathering area. So those that want to chat with that early morning coffee don’t disturb the sleepers. Can’t say more about the place . We stay at a vrbo once a month and this is on the top of our list. Communication if needed is a minute away 👍🍷

Loved the Luxury Loft!

I stayed the last week of March 2022 at this loft and fell in love with it. It is truly a luxury rental - the quality of the furniture, linens, towels are all top notch. The bed in the master bedroom was more comfortable for me than my bed at home. Check in was a breeze, and thoughtful touches abound, such as a welcome board, snacks, fully stocked spice cabinet, a coffee bar, waters in the fridge, and essentials in the pantry. The host answered all my questions promptly and cordially. The loft is hands down one of the best rentals I've ever enjoyed. However, a word about the location . . . the description states that the loft is near a railroad tracks, which it is right next door to. If you do not care for the associated noise that brings, then this is not the spot for you. (It didn't bother me at all as I grew up near railroad tracks.) Also, there are two great little restaurants in walking distance -- literally, just at the front of the loft. And, I walked to the beach about every day. I had to cross Red Arrow Highway, but once I did so, it was an easy, half mile walk through a wooded lane and onto a private association beach. I loved the time here so much, I booked again for next month.

Perfect Retreat

Oh My Goodness......what a lovely property. Everything was above my expectations. The location is perfect. The unit is incredibly quiet, well decorated with nice furnishings & soft linens. You can tell this property is managed by someone who knows what they are doing; beautifully decorated, all the comforts of home, information easily/readily available, check in was flawless, responsiveness from the owner was incredibly prompt. My only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. We will definitely stay here again. ;
