Great family get away

Entire family enjoyed our stay! Grandkids enjoyed swimming in Lake Michigan and then to get out of the sun a little bit, they played Pac-Man and Digdug in the game room. We loved both falling asleep and waking up listening to waves crash!

Amazing location

Very private lake house. Right on the lake with amazing private beach. House sits in thick woods. Basement is a bit basementy, but not sure how you get around that. Overall, great experience.

family of 12 vacation stay

Despite no air conditioning, the basement had a bad musty smell and we were unable to use the downstairs bathroom and had to share the one in the master, we did enjoy our stay at this property. The main floor was clean and provided a good space for us all to hang out. The house had recently been updated with new very slippery wood floors and cool modern chairs, including an awesome massage chair that we all took turns using. The king size bed in the master bedroom was extremely comfortable. The beach access was wonderful and the views were spectacular. All of the children and the dog loved it. Overall if the basement were to be updated and the leaks in the laundry room were fixed that are causing the musty mildew smell in the basement, causing it to seem wet and air conditioning were to be installed, we would definitely consider going back.

Missing the sound of the waves already!

We had a wonderful stay at Ernest's house last week! The location is fantastic - steps from a sandy beach, surrounded by tall evergreens. Short drive to the town grocery store, and just a little further away is a Target, Walmart, and other stores for essentials. Centrally located if you wanted to take daytrips to Milwaukee, Port Washington, Sheboygan (great farmer's market!), or Cedarburg, though really, you won't want to leave the property. The beachfront patio was amazing for stargazing, Monarch-watching. and enjoying watching the waves crash during the day and a distant lightning storm at night. Don't let negative reviews deter you. We did not experience any issues. Sure, the bathrooms are outdated, but they are very clean. Yes, there's a smell to the water, but sulfurous water is incredibly common in homes along the lake, so it's not unexpected. Whether or not the owner stayed in the guest house, I couldn't tell you. If he did, we never saw him nor heard from him at all unless we emailed with a question, to which he responded nearly immediately. The home is tastefully decorated. We made great use of the sunroom, the hot tub, the fully stocked kitchen supplies. Linens, essentials, and even some fun treats were supplied. We will absolutely consider Ernest's property for future vacations, and you should, too.

Hidden gem, great for different groups

My family and I did a quick stay for thanksgiving. The property is actually even nicer than the photos! The hot tub was amazing. The dining room and view were amazing. The host was very responsive to questions. My only suggestion is the property could have been a touch cleaner —especially the showers. But it did not detract from our great trip, and we would definitely go back again.

Interesting home in a wonderful location

This home was perfect for our extended family of 10. On the main level were several rooms, including a large living area, one bedroom and a separate full bath. 3 bedrooms with one full bath and a separate family room with microwave and drink refrigerator on the lower level. Nice old piano in the main living area was a hit with everyone. Lovely beach area. Beautiful sun/dining room. We hope to be back.

Getaway with Character

We loved our weekend at this house. Came with extended family for the annual Holland Festival in nearby Cedar Grove. We especially enjoyed the quirky library and decor (mid-century furniture, Sonos sound systems, interesting artwork)The beach in the backyard is gorgeous. Walked the dog along the charming country road. Watched the orange full moon rise while roasting marshmallows at the fire pit. Got to meet the friendly owner when he came to collect the trash. Carpe diem!

Amazing location and amazing house

My stay here with a group of friends was amazing! Wish I could have stayed longer. The house is beautiful and has a lot of character. It feels secluded and tucked away from other houses. We loved the hot tub and the beautifully groomed beach that’s about 50 feet away from the back door. The house has many internet connected appliances like Sonos speakers, Alexas, and connected kitchen for people who like that sort of thing. We enjoyed the baby grand piano. It even has a pinball room! I was really pleased with the stay, and I definitely hope to go back.

Open a page to "yesterday" in peace and tranquillity

Gorgeous home! Very nicely furnished and had everything we needed. Quite comfortable! Surprising how secluded the home is, given it's right on the lake. Felt like we were out in the country, with woods on 3 sides and the lake immediately behind us. Love the 3 season room with the view of the lake. In fact, lake view from every room facing that way! Plenty of space if you have several people with you, but wonderful retreat for just the 2 of us. Town very close for restaurants and food. Was fun to walk through the home and just imagine what life might have looked like back when the home was first built. Would like to come back in the summer.
