About the host

Hosted by Tracey Lowenthal

Host profile image
We live in Chicago and have come out to "the country" for years, staying at our parents' cabin in Union Pier. Now that we're empty nester's and aren't spending our weekends at our kids' sporting events, we have the time to unwind in beautiful SW Michigan. We're very active, and the area has so much to offer, including jogging, biking, tennis/pickleball, kayaking, swimming and water sports, wineries and breweries, restaurants and bars, antiquing, farmer's markets and festivals, and gorgeous sunsets.

Why they chose this property

We felt like this house had the best of everything. A comfortable, open layout with 2 outdoor screened-in spaces, a quiet neighborhood, a pool nearby, yet walking distance to all that the town has to offer and the lakefront.

What makes this property unique

The neighborhood is so charming--all the houses are similar in style, but different colors and accents. We see many people out walking their dogs or tooling around on their bikes. It truly feels like a relaxing get-away!
