Great property for a large family. Plenty of room for everyone. Huge dining room that seated our whole family. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and pool. Large grounds for the kids to run around or play cornhole. We would definitely recommend this place for any large group
This house was absolutely amazing very accommodating for my big group. Beds are super comfortable. The pool and Jacuzzi were also a hit, If youâre thinking about renting this place, please do not hesitate.
The property was excellent. House was well equipped. Two refrigerators side by side was perfect for our family. We appreciated extra towels for hot tub. Grandchildren loved staying in the cabin. Many hours were spent fishing in the pond! We loved the trails and firepit. Lake Michigan was wonderful. It was a super family vacation. Only drawback was the long tripback to Pennsylvania!
We have worked with many owners and managers over the years. I can honestly say that the owner of this house, Michael, is the best owner we have ever worked with. We had a couple small issues during our stay and in each case, he fixed the issue quickly and effectively. In one instance, we had rented a boat for four hours but we needed a large cooler for the food and drinks we were going to take on the boat. By the next morning, Michael had dropped off this mega cooler for us to use on the boat. The house itself has a wonderful charm about it and a beautiful piece of property. We found the kitchen to be very well equipped, and the second outdoor grill came in very handy for the size of our family. In general, we found the house to be well care for and rank it high in the cleanliness category!
Our family loved our stay at this house! The kids, aged 7-13, say this has been their favorite house that we have stayed at. This wasnât the typical house that we usually look for, as a game room with electronics is usually a key amenity we want. But with many options available on the property, the children were outside fishing, using the paddle boat, playing baseball or kickball, exploring the paths cut through the woods, or swimming in the pool every chance they got. I marked the accuracy of listing as a 4 simply because the TVâs in the bedroom have been replaced and are BIGGER than the pictures showed, so that is a good thing if people watch TV in their rooms. Again, with our family, we spent so much time outside that the only time a TV was on was in the morning in the kitchen as the kids were eating.The rooms in the house are very quiet. You do not hear noise from the other rooms, and even with a baby in our family, you could not hear him in the middle of the night from other rooms, and he was able to nap during the day without being wakened by noise.We did contact Michael a couple times during the week, and he was very responsive and prompt. Response to one of our calls actually had an added bonus of him bringing fishing poles and Bean Bag Toss boards for the house!
This estate was a perfect spot for our family reunion getaway. We were 18 people (mostly teens and adults), with plenty of space for all. The house is well appointed and very charming, with a large dining room for bigger gatherings and several smaller spaces for cozier interactions. Two of the 8 bedrooms are in the log cabin on the property, which the young adults loved to give them some independence! The property is beautiful and well-kept. The pond is not swimmable (which is fine because there is a pool!), but can float around or use the paddle boat provided. The owner is super easy to work with, and very responsive to needs and requests. All around we loved this place and would be happy to return if opportunity permits!
There were 16 of us and each person enjoyed themselves. The house was large enough and unique in its style. Plenty of outside room and nearly things to do.
Michael was quick to respond if we needed anything. We would definitely rent from him again. Very pleased.
We had a great time with family and friends from 4 to 85! The kids especially liked the cabin and the pool. Itâs a great spot with a lot to do and the beach very nearby and South Haven a quick drive to. We really enjoyed it.
We had 18 family members met up coming from Michigan, Ohio, Texas, and Georgia. It was nice to have a big space to spread out and not feel on top of each other. We did make a pros and cons list:
CONS: update pictures online (pool, cabin, etc), landscaping was dead, owner not responding to messages online, there was a mouse/droppings in cabin, not knowing about having to make beds when we arrived, no WiFi in cabin, updated bathrooms/showers
PROS: well stocked kitchen with dishes and utensils, space for everyone to eat, pool/hot tub, clean, pool towels well stocked, gorgeous grounds.
Overall we had a great experience and it was really close to Saugatuck and South Haven. Kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub.
We held our womenâs retreat at this beautiful home and it was perfect. The property is so serene. The house and cabin are so cozy with all the amenities you could ask for. It is very well stocked for a large group. Absolutely loved it!
