A very nice location. Home is ideally situated away from the busy part of town with great access to the beach and dunes. Had everything you need for a relaxing couple of days away. Nice that the driveway is now paved - makes it much easier for front access with luggage. Thank you for opening up your home for a nice stay with our family.
Great location, beautiful property with the best views
Me and my buds really enjoyed the stay. Being able to drink coffee on the deck, while the early birds hit the dunes made the stay perfect!
Deb was a great host as well!!

You were great visitors!! I hope you come back again!!
This VRBO was perfect for a fall friends getaway! Staying between the beach and the dunes was great, and Debbie was very accommodating and kind for our stay. Would love to return again for more fun memories!
This property was perfect on every level. Beautiful sunsets and the kids get so excited to be able to see the sand dune activities. Would definitely be our choice for a stay in silver lake

So glad you enjoyed yourselves. Yes, it’s the perfect place for kids. Just like being in a giant sandbox!! Enjoy the rest of your summer.
This was our second stay here, because there just isn't a better property to access both Lake Michigan and the Dunes - both are an easy walk away. If there wasn't so much fun to be had in the area, I could have enjoyed more time just taking in the views from the deck!

So glad you were able to make the trip again this year. It is certainly a unique spot. Never get tired of looking at those dunes, or that incredible lake.
We enjoyed our stay and trip to the dunes. Debi was very friendly and responsive with answers to questions. The views of the dunes and sunset were so nice. Relaxing and fun weeekend.
This is such a beautiful location. Debi was a wonderful host. My brother, friends and I stayed here for a celebration for my brother's batchelor party. It was magical.

I’m so glad you enjoyed your visit. Congratulations to your brother!! Come back again!!
It was perfect having the view of Lake Michigan in the front and then in the back at night sitting out there, watching the lights of the dunes. Even during the day to watch the vehicles on the dunes was beautiful.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again.
Very clean home. Up to date amenities. This home has beautiful views of the dunes and a short walking distance to the beach. Very roomy as we had 11 people and had plenty of room for everyone.

Thanks for being such great guests. Glad you enjoyed your stay!!
Stayed here for a good weekend with a handful of guys. The proximity to the beach was truly spectacular and the house has more than enough room for us. The kitchen was stocked with all the utensils needed to cook which we did many times during the stay. Would highly recommend anyone on the fence to stay here and check it out!

I truly enjoy cooking there. I always have something great to look at. Whether it be the Lake or the dunes. Glad you enjoyed your stay.
We had a wonderful time. The house backed directly up to the dunes and Lake Michigan was across the street. It's a wonderful location and the house was just what we needed. We had 4 adults and 5 younger children.

Children just love to stay here. It's like being in a giant sand box. So glad that your enjoyed your stay.
We had a great time at Debi's property. The house was very clean and well-appointed, the check-in process was a breeze, and Debi was very communicative. The area is very unique and our 3 boys loved living in a giant sandbox for a few days and watching the ORVs ride the dunes from right behind the house was very cool. There are Lake Michigan views and it is a very short walk to the beach. We had a great time!

About the host
Hosted by Debi Hatt
We live in Brighton Michigan. I am happy to share my home. Everyone that comes here wants to return.
Why they chose this property
We have been enjoying this area of Michigan for the past 48 years. Our children have grown up loving it, and now our grandchildren are loving it, as well as many of our friends, and other family members. Everyone that comes here, immediately falls in love with the area, and makes it their go to vacation spot. We purchased the property in 1991 after owning a mobile home on a lot very near the dune entrance. We are so happy that we were able to build Sahara Sands on this special piece of property. We are very pleased that we can share it with others, and hope everyone that visits Sahara Sands, enjoys it as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
This property that this home sits on is the critical dune area. Many permits had to be obtained, and the building of the home had specific guidelines that we had to follow through the DEQ (Department of Environmental Quality) It was a struggle at first, getting the proper design, placement of the home, and size down, once that was finished the rest went, well not as smoothly as we would have wanted. The first thing we built were the stairs (I fondly refer to them as my "Stairway to Heaven"). No vehicles were allowed to drive on the sand. We had to crane in the heavy trusses and walk everything up the stairs. It was a labor of love as we completely finished the inside ourselves. The large wrap-around deck allows for views from all over. Watch the sun rise over the dunes in the morning, and the sunset over the lake in the evening. Gaze at the stars while sitting by the fire at night. During the day, you can see test hill from the back, and watch the buggies try to accomplish climbing the hill.
