Brava, Dunes Casa!
The location is great. The beach is within a long walk (not ideal for those with mobility issues). The backyard was a dream and perfect for hanging out. We had a group of ten (adults and teens) and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and lounge around. Plenty of towels and blankets to go around. The hot tub was a hit and everyone is looking forward to returning.

Dune Reunion
It looked small but we had plenty of room because "it's bigger on the inside." Plenty of towels and kitchen equipment. High wave warnings restricted some of our beach time but all in all it was a good week. The property manager was quick to respond to our inquiries. A handbook, outlining operating instructions, check out procedures, garbage day directives, etc. would be a good addition to this location.

Great space!
The home was very welcoming, nicely organized, well stocked with linens and towels, VERY clean, and comfortable. Everyone who stayed had a comfortable place to sleep as well as different places to gather and hang out. Plenty of "Wows!" and " never would have guessed the amount of space from the street view". We are thinking of making a trip back for the summer months to get the full benefit of how close it is to the beach. I also needed space to prep for a rather large birthday event. The large dining room table and extra place in the living room were crucial to being able to get everything together. Thank you for the fantastic stay!

ABOUT THE OWNER

Monica started North Star Properties with one goal. To better serve the Northwest Indiana and Southwest Michigan Area with a concierge service mentality for short term rentals. From the North suburbs of Detroit she was bred to be in the real estate industry. Both of her parents were entrepreneurs. She watched as her father built Gauthier Corporation, a very successful construction company, which is still running as strong as ever. Her mother started a cleaning company that meticulously made sure every home shined like the top of the Chrysler building. Working for both of her parents growing up, she understands the drive and passion it takes to achieve success. Prior to starting North Star Properties, she sold real estate on the Northside of Chicago before moving to the Dunes and making a permanent home.
"As a Realtor and Property Manager, I want to bring back the kind of service people forgot about it and should still come to expect from their agents today! It's not about getting the sale or rental, it's offering a uniquely qualified experience to my clients by building trust and a long term partnership. I can take care of all your Real Estate needs and if I can't, I will turn you in the right direction. I specialize in buying, selling, vacation rentals, investment properties, general contracting and property management services.
