Family dunes annual trip

This was a great house to stay in and the location was good. Was close to the silver lake sand dunes which is why we come up here. Was able to park my trailer in the driveway without a problem. This is a great place to stay at and would come back again. Thank you

Great trip

We had an excellent stay at the Silver Lake Custom Cottage. It was more spacious then we thought, and it was the best equipped VRBO we have stayed in. We loved being able to bring our furry friends for their first dunes adventure. We come up at least once every summer and will definitely stay here again.

Great stay close to everything!

This was a last minute trip to take out of town family to see the best of Silver Lake. The house was close to everything and was a great space for us to congregate and spend time together. Nightly fires in the fire pit were perfect. The option to hook up a camper was an added touch that made it so we could all be together in was space.
