Five stars
Our family had a great stay. House and pool were clean and the property was exactly as advertised. Easy commute to Warren Dunes for some beach time. When we weren’t at the beach or pool we were playing Mariocart on the Nintendo Switch. Would stay again!

Terrific mini vacation
We had such a lovely time here. The backyard is an oasis in the burbs! Heated pool, hot tub, fire pit--we enjoyed it all. And when it rained on us, we played ping pong in the garage and foosball in the game room. Our kids were in heaven. Not to mention that the house is 15 mins from Warren Dunes or SIlver Beach--both wonderful days out, Definitely recommend.

Magnificent Michigan
First trip to Lake Michigan and all I can say is, we’ll definitely be back! The Poolside Playhouse was amazing. Very clean, even by my germ-a-phobic standards. Plenty to do with tons of games, televisions in every room, WiFi, erc. Kitchen has everything you need. Pool was spectacular! Everything was exactly as described, and better! Communication with Tony was great. He was attentive and we had everything we needed for our “rest and relax”get-away. Would most definitely recommend!!

Awesome family vacation rental
Amazing house!! Pulling into the driveway, we were a little skeptical because it appeared to be a normal residential house you’d see in any suburb. Walked in and we were blown away. House is absolutely gorgeous. Everything was immaculate and clean. Had everything we could want including a pack and play and a much needed baby gate we forgot to pack. Pool was awesome and heated, which helped bc the weather was 58-62 all week. The basement game room and garage game room kept the whole family happy. Wife and I would ping pong it up when we got the littles to bed. House is super close to grand mere state park and silver beach, both are short drives. House also close to several stores and restaurants. Home owner was extremely quick to respond to any questions we had, which weren’t many bc house had it all. If you can’t decide between this house and another, pick this one! You will not be disappointed!

Perfect Getaway!
This house was everything we could’ve hoped for and more! There was so many fun things to do at the house.. We didn’t even have enough time to use it all! Very clean and cozy. This was perfect for our girls weekend away but would be great for a family getaway as well. Tony was amazing with communication and responds very quickly! This was very helpful for me since I live out of state. 10/10 would recommend!

The property is well kept, well stocked, and SO MUCH FUN! We loved the layout of the house, the yard, and all the fun things included. The neighborhood is so nice and quiet, too. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a “family style” vacation!
