Paradise on Lake Michigan

Beautiful home in the woods. Plenty of room for our large extended family. Short walk to Lake Michigan to watch the sunset. The indoor pool and hot tub enjoyed by all. Owners very quick to respond.

Wonderful stay for a golf weekend!

My friends and I stayed at this house for a golf trip we took in May 2024. Made use of the tons of space, the pool, and the rec area when we weren't out on the course! Highly recommend this place to stay for groups of all sizes. Something for everyone to do if you aren't out and about. Bryan and Tara are fantastic hosts, and were so communicative throughout the check-in/check-out process. I will absolutely be staying at one of their properties again when I am on the west side of the state. Only ding is for an ant problem there seemed to be in the kitchen when we got there, but the rest of the house was immaculate.

Amazing house set up perfectly for a big group!

We had a long weekend with 24 family and friends and the house was great! Plenty of room and activities for everyone - lounging in the hot tub, playing in the pool, hanging out in the kitchen/family room, talking out on the multiple decks - and plenty of competitions down in the basement with the ping pong/pool table! Followed up with some walks up to the deck for sunset overlooking Lake Michigan. The stair chair was very helpful for some people in our party and Tara was a great communicator - ensuring all of our needs were met. Thank you for a wonderful weekend to remember. :-)

Wonderful Family Time

With 3 generations, this was a great location for a long weekend winter break. Many happy hours were spent in the pool and hot tub and multiple cooks could work together easily in the well-equipped kitchen. When little things arose, Tara quickly and happily responded to questions. The only downside was that it was too cold/windy to spend much time at the beautiful Lake Michigan overlook. But our granddaughter was able to get her coveted sunset picture, so it all worked out.

AMAZING STAY!! I don’t know where to begin other than to say we had the best weekend at this property. The host was responsive, helpful and so nice. She sent a text as we were on our way that the spa had a broken part, but that they already had someone on their way to fix it! Within an hour of our arrival the hot tub was fixed and ready to go! The house & pool area were clean, spacious and just as shown in the pictures. The house was stocked with quite literally everything you would need for your stay! 10/10 would recommend and we are already want to book another stay!

Amazing reunion weekend

We have a large group of friends and struggled to find a house that could hold us all comfortably. This house provided endless hours of entertainment, a comfortable spacious place to sleep and a great location by the water. The hosts were extremely quick to reply and set up the home so well for us to enjoy. I wish we never had to leave! I would recommend this to anyone! Absolutely 5 stars

Incredible Stay

We had our extended family of 17 people at the home to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. The owners left a nice card and bottle of champagne to honor my parents 50th. That was an amazing touch for a vacation rental and basically summed up our entire experience….which was that everything was perfect! We had plenty of room to spread out. The kids enjoyed hanging in the walk-out basement, playing games and watching movies. The kids had the time of their lives swimming in the pool! There was just enough beach for the kids to play in the sand while we were there, so that worked out well. All in all, my family had a great time and the house was perfect. I certainly recommend it to anyone considering the home for your famiy!

Wonderful!

Our stay in this beautiful home by the lake was wonderful. We had 17 family members and there was plenty of room for us all. The kids LOVED the game area downstairs and indoor pool, hot tub and tv. They could have stayed inside the house all week and been happy. The kitchen/living area had room for us all to enjoy being together. Everything was clean and well taken care of. The owners had great communication. I can’t say enough about how lovely this home is. We were all sad to leave and hope to come back again.

Family Memories - Priceless

“10” in all categories. Three generations, 4 families-ages 1-79, total happiness by all for 7 days. Beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained, well stocked with the basics- paper products, plenty of kitchen utensils, pots and pans of all sizes, plenty of dishes, glasses, and silverware, every amenity imaginable -ie- 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens, 2 toasters, blender, food processor, baking sheets, spices, (even baking powder!), a foldable poker table (we placed it on the rec room table), 2 cases of poker chips, almost every board game one can think of. The layout of the house is very well thought out. The fantastic pool can be seen from the kitchen, sitting room, hot tub, and the wrap-around deck - so no matter where the adults were, the kids could see that they were being seen at all times. The hot tub location just a bit away from pool has a big screen TV- much used by kids and adults alike. I lost track of how many TVs. The convenience of bathrooms-in the pool area, complete with a shower, on the main level, in the lower level near 2 bedrooms and the recreation area, 3 on the top/bedroom level. Did I mention super comfortable beds, great internet access, and almost immediate response -when a bathroom door got closed when it was locked! A “cotter key” is in the tool box in the laundry room! Only one disappointment - it was already booked for 2024 for the dates we need Solution-Booked Tara and Bryan’s nearby second property-ID 2685329 - Also looks great!

Family vacay 2023

This rental was absolutely perfect in every way!! We brought our entire family....my husband & myself, our 3 sons and their families! We had 8 adults and our 6 grandchildren, ranging from 1-10 years old. Everyone had plenty of room and privacy, while still being in the same house with the family! The indoor pool was a favorite for all the grandkids (swimming 2-3 times daily)and the adults sure enjoyed the hot tub! We loved that the property was secluded, yet walking distance to lake Michigan. We also loved being 5-20 min. from everything - gas stations, convenience stores, Meijer, Craig's Cruisers, Michigan Adventure, hiking trails, Pere Marquette Park on lake Michigan and anything else you can think of 😉 Thank you Tara and Brian for making our experience so memorable ❤️

Family getaway

We had a group of 15 people including three generations of our family together. The youngest group of 7 kids were between 17 and 25. We all had a great time in the pool, hiking, playing outdoor and indoor games. The weather was not warm enough for much lake activity but it did not stop us from having a wonderful time. This home is gorgeous, immaculate, well stocked with necessities and the host family is so accommodating with any issues. Would highly recommend.

A cozy, luxurious, family-friendly getaway

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I’m not sure what more we could have asked for out of our winter getaway. Cozy, very well maintained home. Extremely welcoming hosts and excellent communication. The pool was clean and our kids had a blast on the slide. Everything we needed to cook family meals was there for us. The basement was full of games and entertainment. Beds were comfy, towels were plentiful, and the welcome basket was such a kind, unexpected treat. Highly recommended vacation home!!! Would stay again without hesitation.

About the host

Hosted by Tara Yaldou

Bryan and I were both born and raised in southeast Michigan and although our backgrounds are very different, our vision of the life we want and the values we share are very similar. We have always put family first and recognize the importance of making memories. It's been said that the memories you want to have tomorrow, you need to make today and we strongly believe that. We love traveling to West Michigan with our four children, our parents, our siblings and our friends. Michigan's "fresh coast" provides the perfect setting for memory-making. We fell in love with this home and property the first time we saw it and knew we had to share it. We eagerly embraced the challenge of designing it to comfortably accommodate large family groups and sincerely love creating a space for families (including our own) to create life-long memories. The home is spacious with seasonal views of Lake Michigan, a shared overlook with gorgeous, endless views of Lake Michigan, is a short drive to several Lake Michigan beaches, restaurants, shopping, golfing and so much more. It is an all-season retreat for multi-family groups that will comfortably accommodate the young, the older, the playful and the mature!

Why they chose this property

Our home provides a space for families and friends to spend time together enjoying a true staycation vacation! You never need to leave our home. The pool room complete with a slide and jumping board for kids, a hot tub, TV and sonos sound system will keep everyone entertained for hours. The pool table/ping pong table, foosball table and array of board games in the lower level will also provide hours of fun. Outside, enjoy sitting at one of the fire tables surrounded by beautiful views of nature (it is rare for a day to go by without a visit from a family of deer), enjoy seasonal views of Lake Michigan from the front porch or take a short walk to the shared overlook and take in stunning, endless views of Lake Michigan. If you do decide to venture out, our home is ideally located just minutes from Lake Michigan beaches, shopping, restaurants, golfing and so much more. We are less than 20 minutes from Grand Haven, about 25 minutes from Michigan's Adventure (an amusement park and waterpark), approximately 45 minutes from Holland and Pentwater and an hour's drive from Ludington. When we first saw this home, we envisioned the memories we would make with our children, parents, siblings and friends and then we imagined the space we could create for other families to make those same memories. Our home is a perfect place to connect with old friends and new ones, for grandparents to spend quality time with grandkids, a place to celebrate life's milestones with those you love or a retreat for those that just need time "away from it all." When we travel with our large families, we are looking for a place that is clean, comfortable, spacious, welcoming, cozy, family-friendly and FUN. If you're looking for that too, then our home is a perfect fit for you!

What makes this property unique

Our home, located just minutes from Lake Michigan beaches, is designed for families to spend time together, sharing the same space but also having room to spread out. Our home comfortably sleeps up to 24, with 6 bedrooms and an optional 7th bedroom (the den has two very comfortable queen Murphy/wall beds). There are 5 full bathrooms and one half bathroom in our home. Spend the day together - cooking, swimming, playing pool/ping-pong or foosball, shopping, golfing, relaxing at the beach, etc. then retreat to your own private space for a good night's sleep. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail - you can expect an immaculately clean, updated and well-maintained home, comfortable beds, a fully stocked kitchen and so much more. Our home is not only unique in that it comfortably accommodates large groups but it is also a true all-season home. During the spring, summer and fall months, there is no shortage of activities for your group to do on and around our home. During the winter months, enjoy playing in the warm pool or relaxing in the hot tub watching your favorite movie in front of a cozy fireplace. And do it all while enjoying the stunning views of a Michigan winter landscape afforded by the floor to ceiling glass windows/sliding doors surrounding the pool room!
