Great Labor Day Weekend at the Dunes
The house was great and easily accomodated our family for a long Labor Day weekend getaway. The owner is great to work with and very responsive. The home has everything you need. We will definitely return to the home and highly recommend it to others. The local area is great too.

Great place to stay!
We used this house for our annual work retreat. The house was clean, in a quiet neighborhood, and close to the beach. The kitchen and living room were spacious and accommodated our needs well. I highly recommend this house.

Beach vacation
The house was very very clean. Just a short walk to the beach with handicap ramp to the top of the dune. It was nice to be able to walk the beach, come back to the house, and go back to the beach without much effort.

Nice beachside property with great location
My group of spread out friends had our annual get together and this was an excellent place to stay. Very nice backyard setup with lots of seating and ambiance. Just steps from the beach for easy access to lake and beach fun.

Great weekend getaway
A five adult women looking for an easy, relaxing getaway, we couldn't have asked for a better house! The inside is beautiful and seems recently updated. The outside space is spectacular - private, covered eating area and open space to sit and hang out! And the beach is right across the street. Fantastic visit and home

Great beach house!
The house is great and has everything you need. The kitchen is great! There's plenty of space if your group wants to spread out and do different things. And it's a very short walk to the beach. We've stayed twice and definitely plan to return!

Summer Family Retreat
Very comfortable home with plenty of space for privacy and children to hang out separate from the adults. We prefer home cooked family meals so the fully stock kitchen was a plus! Also enjoy the evening outdoors and backyard patio was perfect - just wish it was cleaned up a bit better after the last guests

Wonderful vacation home
Our family enjoyed the time we spent at the cottage so much this year. The cottage is spacious and lovely. Everyone had room to spread out and have some space of their own. We are a family of 10 with grandchildren ranging in ages 13 to 5. We plan on returning next year.

Perfect Beach House
This house was perfect for our four families. Access to the beach was so close and the beach was amazing! The house is equipped with so many things which was really great and thoughtful of the owner. Very clean and exactly as shown in the listing. There was a lot of room and bathrooms for everyone to have their space. We will definitely keep this house in mind for future stays.

It was better than I expected
The location was just a few minutes from the beach and the background was picture perfect. I had my friends join me to celebrate 2022 with me. The house had everything we needed and more. I made sure only 2 people had to share a bathroom. I have to admit, my friends and I were inspired with decor etc. Whenever I had a question, I received a quick response. The neighbors were just as friendly and helpful with tips and told us about the beautiful sunset. This place is on my 'to go to' on an annual basis. It is home away from home but much more relaxing.

Great house for large groups
This house was clean, beautiful and spacious. My husband and I were there with our adult children, their spouses and their kids. It was probably one of the rainiest vacations we ever experienced, but because the house was roomy and comfortable, we still had a great time. The kids (age 2 and 4) had room for their toys upstairs in the great room, and we could supervise them while still enjoying a view of the lake (and storms rolling in) from the upstairs balcony. The basement area is very private and safe (and the door directly into the basement area was very nice for unloading luggage etc- especially in the rain). The kitchen had very nice appliances, and a fantastic island area around which we were always gathered. The bathrooms were plentiful and updated, and clean. The outdoor sitting area was also very nice. We used and appreciated every bit of this home. Location was also very good. Very close to beach access, and reasonably close to restaurants in the area. We like to take long walks so we walked everywhere. Just one note that the outside grill is not gas. When we come back (and we will!), we will bring charcoal. Lovely home!!!!

Traveling Buddies
Once a year, our group of four couples (all 55+) take a long weekend away. We stayed in 2019 but had to cancel in 2020. This year there was only 6 of us. We love the house with ensuite bathrooms, great backyard and short walk to a super beach. Loved the Utter Nonsense game! We hope to return another year!

A wonderful spot to enjoy family
We rented this home because we had three adult couples who really like their own space to sleep. The three king suites each had plenty of space and beautiful bathrooms with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. The backyard is as gorgeous in person as it looks in the pictures. We easily could have slept 4-6 more people in this house, but greatly enjoyed all the space by ourselves. Completely worth the money. The dune access to the left of the house even has a plastic decking to make crossing over to the water easier.
