We had a wonderful stay here! The house was so cozy and had every amenity we could possibly need, and the short drive into TC made it easy to enjoy downtown but still feel secluded while we sat on the beach. Absolutely recommend and would stay again!

We had the most fabulous stay at this quiet waterfront property. We enjoyed the view, the private beach, and the sunsets. Great kitchen and updated bathrooms, comfy beds, AC units, and everything we needed to unplug by the lake. Carole checked in often and was a great host!

This is our third year staying at this home. We had a great visit. It was cooler than previous years but that didn't stop us from enjoying the beach. We love the location and did I mention, the beach? Parts of the home were updated over the winter which we much appreciated the new mattress and floors.

This is our second time at this house and we had a great time as always. The bonfires on the beach are awesome! The house is cozy. The lightning in the bedrooms isnt great. So hard to put makeup on if someone else needs to use the shower. Fyi. But , all in all a great stay!

Host was very communicative, answered questions quickly. House very clean and comfortable. Nice sunsets from the beach but spotty views from deck / backyard. Not too difficult to walk from house to beach but we are 70 yrs old so less steep steps and a hand rail to beach would be nice!

Fantastic getaway with friends

This is a wonderful house nestled in the woods right on Lake Michigan. It was very clean, comfortable and the owners were very prompt and responsive when we needed to get in touch with them. We will definitely be looking to stay here again soon!

This was our second year staying here. The location is perfect for us. We love the beach for the dog and night time bonfires. In general the neighbors are quiet depending on what visitors they may have. Any issues were quickly resolved.

The property was nice, but not easy to get to the waterfront. The stairs did not all have railings or were buried in vines; pathway washed out, so hard to climb up to house or down to water.The deck was nice but hard to see the bay and outdoor dining table was too big so could not sit at the sides - only the ends and had to go out different doors to access each table end.
