Location was great. The property is secluded but close to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment The kitchen has every appliance you want. Very well equipped
The house is a perfect setting for a family vacation! The house and pool were clean and the house had all the pots, pans and utensils needed to cook meals. Baby equipment was at the house freeing up car space for all our other belongings. Lots for the grandchildren to do and room for us to hang out and play games after swimming. I highly recommend this property.
This house was the perfect house for our large family to stay in. It has plenty of space & has absolutely everything you can think of that you would need. The outdoor area by the pool is perfect. We will definitely stay again if we come back to the area. The host is very kind. Highly recommend!
Our family of 17 loved this home. From seeing deer in the morning across the field to swimming all day to the relaxing at night, my wife, kids & grandkids could not have asked for a better stay.
Our family enjoyed our stay at this home. Very comfortable for the 14 of us. Best equipped kitchen in a rental I have seen. We loved the pool. Owner is very friendly and responds quickly to any questions.
Plenty of space to spread out for 10+ adults. Between the porch chairs and pool furniture, there was always a place to sit in sun or shade. The forested lot provides beautiful views and privacy. All the bedrooms were comfortable and equitable, so every couple was happy.
The house accomodated our family great. Since the stay was a week before Memorial weekend outside wasn't the tidiest, but overall it was good. Plenty of bedrooms for our extended family and large dining room and living room made for a great gathering space. It worked out great to celebrate Notre Dame graduation at a reasonable price for the large family.
It was perfect for our group of 8 adults and 6 children. The kids had fun outside although the trampoline didn't seem very safe so we kept the kids off after the first day. The house was well equipped with pots, pans, dishes and silverware. The kids had fun with all the toys in the basement. The host was very nice and accommodating. We had no issues while there so never needed to contact anyone with a problem.
Owner was excellent communicator. Kept in touch the entire weekend and checking in with us. The house had everything we needed and made our stay perfect.
The kids were in the pool from sun up to sun down. Pool has great surroundings for those who want to watch the pool action, sun bathe, play on the trampoline, use the swings and slides or nap in the hammocks. Something for everyone.
When renting a property, you always hope that the place is as advertised and clean and quiet. This property did not disappointment and was better than advertised. From the great amenities, to the smallest little details, they have everything covered for young and old.
Then to top off this experience, the excellent communication from the housekeeper and owner made our vacation a relaxing, enjoyable and hassle free trip that everyone enjoyed.
We will be back again!
Alistair was an excellent host and the entire experience was amazing. Kids enjoyed the pool time to the max. The house was well equipped with all the essentials from kitchen to bedrooms. It was a wonderful getaway.
We enjoyed our trip and there was plenty of room for our big group. There are lots of unfinished projects throughout the property, so you can tell itâs a work in progress. It didnât get in the way much but we wished the patio area by the pool was better situated. The pool itself is beautiful and well maintained and even had a diving board which the kids thought was great. The automatic cover was really easy to use and in great shape.
We loved the property. We had 17 in our group and the home accommodated all of us. The swimming pool and trampoline were great. We were within 15 minutes of the beach in New Buffalo and even closer to the marina where we rented a pontoon one morning and the golf course we played at another morning. Everyone had a great time.
We stayed with 3 families. It was close so we went to New Buffalo and the beach one day. The rest of the days we spent in the very nice pool. The kitchen was stocked with nice appliances and everything else we needed. Outdoor steps need to be re-done, kind of dangerous and it looked like they are ready to paint because nailholes were filled in and could be seen. It would have also been nice if a few of the couches would have been pullout. Overall a very nice house and vacation.
The house is very large and it really feels like a home away from home. The kitchen is the most well appointed kitchen that I have ever seen at a rental property. The house was private and the pool was heated. I appreciated that the owner let us check in early. There was great communication for check in instructions. There were a few things that I do wish would have been fixed prior to us staying there. There was a rip in the couch, the carpet on the stairs could use some steam cleaning, there was some spackle on the upstairs bathroom walls that just made it seem like it was unfinished. Also, in the bathroom upstairs , the shower did not work and the tub did not plug. For the price we paid, this was disappointing. If the repairs are done, we would stay again since it was a great location and the kids loved the pool and basement.
Good Layout for Multi Generations But Needs Attention
This large home is set well back from the road with beautifully treed land. We had 8 adults and 8 children and we had plenty of room to spread out. We all loved the pool, the toys in the basement and the really well-appointed kitchen. The kids loved the playset, but it needed some repair, as did the dining room table (which wobbled badly) and the wobbly seat at the island. The wrap-around porch is really nice, but one side of it is lined with tools and items that are not safe for children. The rugs in the home did not look like they had been vacuumed and there were many dead bugs on the floors. It just did not look like the house had been cleaned in a while. We did enjoy our stay at this home, but for the money we paid, if I had known it was that dirty, we would not have rented it. I let the owner know about this, because he is getting ripped off by whoever is cleaning and maintaining this home, and he did seem concerned about the situation.
The house is amazing. My friends and I had a wonderful time! The space was incredible and the house has so much character. We are planning our next stay!
We had a wonderful long weekend getaway at this property. The house was well stocked with kitchen, bathroom and laundry room essentials. Appliances are very nice. The house is surrounded by a forest area that we could hike in and the kids could build forts. The basement was filled with kidsâ toys and games, and the backyard had a great trampoline and swing set. We would love to be back during the summer to try their huge swimming pool. Overall, a really fantastic house with plenty of space for 3 families.
