This house was perfect for a multi-family get away. The house was spacious and had little touches (like lights built into the bunkbeds) that make our stay extraordinary.
We had a group of 12 people, mostly couples, stay here and had ample space to spread out! House is bigger than photos suggest!
We had a great time and very conveniently located!!

Hey Sam! So glad to hear that the home was even better than you expected - that's always a fun surprise! With a group of 12, I'm sure everyone was glad to have their own space to relax and rewind after a long day in town! We'd love to have you back for another awesome Summer stay, so feel free to reach out any time!
All the best,
Shores Vacation Rentals
Really loved the home and the location! It was about a half mile from the beach. They did have several chairs and a wagon in the garage. It would have been nice to know those things were there as we brought our own. They had plenty of towels and things in the kitchen that usually are not in short rental homes anymore, so that was very nice! We would have liked a Keurig, but the coffee maker worked great and was nice to have. Meijer was super close as well as downtown where we had a wonderful time shopping. We also loved the public beaches very near by and plenty of free parking. The weather was warm for early October and we even swam in the lake. The home even had boogie boards for the kids to use. Hours of fun! The lake was cold but bearable at about 70. I loved this time of year in Michigan and would definitely stay at this home again! The private hot tub was fabulous and we were in there every night. The beds were very soft and comfortable and felt like home. I would have vacuumed more but the cordless vacuum was really dirty and I could not figure out how to clean/empty the cannister. That is the only thing I would recommend, to have short instructions or have cleaners empty. I appreciated that I did not have to wash sheets and only had to take trash out. The community pool and hot tub were awesome as well and the kids loved them! A short walk from the home. The patio was amazing as well but grill is missing the bottom! Easy things to fix! Thank you so much!
My friends and I had a great time and enjoyed being able to stay here. Would recommend!
