Amazing, will be back!

What a wonderful place! There was nothing at all to complain about, hands down best VRBO property we have ever booked. The beach was quiet as well as the neighborhood. The house was well stocked with everything you would need- garbage bags, paper towel, kitchen items for cooking in, etc. The view was spectacular and with the four porch we were able to enjoy during the rain. Owner was fast to respond to email and the check out was the best I have ever experienced. We booked already for next summer! Thanks again for helping us make some great family memories.

Beautiful sunsets and plenty of room

The house was just right for us. We had one set of grandparents, two adult children and their spouses and one 7 year old grand child. The house was big enough for people to find a place to get away if needed. The stairs to the beach may hinder some people but that was not a problem for us unless you may have mobility issues. The view from the house was lovely in fact we waited for the sunsets over Lake Michigan each night. Kitchen and house were well stocked. There was some mention that wifi was spotty but we didn't have an issue with that either. There was not room in the garage for any cars but plenty of room to park three cars in the drive way. The three season porches were lovely. We had dinner on the outside deck each night.

Absolutely beautiful location and home!

The bottom line: we will be back! The Burts' lake house is in a wonderful location, high atop a Lake Michigan dune, with windows all around to take in the gorgeous views: sunsets, boats cruising through, and tall, lush trees. Communication with the hosts was great: they were highly responsive and accommodating. The home was equipped with everything we needed, including plenty of towels, linens, and cozy throw blankets. For a 3-generation group of 5 people, it was the perfect amount of space for us. There are even 2 decks and 2 three-season rooms. I spent many hours in the upper three-season room (with a full view of the lake, comfy chairs, and a ceiling fan), and I miss it already. The home was clean and tidy, and there were a lot of comfortable spaces for relaxing, reading, watching movies, and chatting with loved ones. The stairs to the beach are numerous and steep, but once you get the hang of it, it's fine. There are beach chairs and towels provided. The kitchen is spacious, and if you're an aspiring chef, there are double ovens and a countertop range. Three HVAC zones, so everyone will be comfortable. The primary suite is large and comfortable. The public beach is visible from the home's private beach, but the sound does not carry, and other than one day when neighbors were playing in the water, we hardly heard anyone else. We watched many motorboats, pontoons, freighters (one totally lit up at night), and barges cross the water. A wonderful place to stay!

We're Glad We Came Back

This was our second October in a row at this welcoming home. We are three couples who get together for a long weekend to re-bond with one another and take in the fall color. This house has more than enough room for all of us, an extremely well equipped kitchen, and spectacular sunsets over Lake Michigan seen from the comfort of the back room. Next October? It will probably be a threepeat!

Annual Michigan Triop

It was clear that the owners cared a great deal for the property, but also cared about the quality of vacation their renters had. The property was clean, comfortable and provided everything one might need to have an excellent vacation on the beautiful Lake Michigan beach. Instructions and use of the house was so easy and the trip was an absolute pleasure. A gem on Lake Michigan.

Stunning Lake views

Our group of 6 adults and two children ages 2 and under had plenty of room to both gather and also enjoy some privacy. Loved the large dining table where we could all sit down together. Open concept was nice. Spent most of our time on the two porches and decks overlooking the lake. Steps to the beach appeared new and were very safe and manageable. Fabulous beach area. Plenty of very nice beach chairs and accessories stored in garage and basement. Our sons and wives enjoyed the ping pong. The house has great bath and beach towels and THANK YOU for the unscented laundry soap and dryer sheets! We appreciated how quickly and helpfully the owner responded to any questions or issues we had. That view over the kitchen sink made dishes a joy! It’s a great neighborhood for walking. Hope to return. Thank you Aven & Mark.

Stayed a weekend at this property, and it was perfect for our group of ladies. We all agreed the house looks nicer in person than in the pictures. We’d definitely stay here again, wouldn’t say it’s my favorite place we’ve rented before but perfect for what we needed. Fully stocked kitchen, beautiful view, easy location to find.
