Better than advertised
This house was the perfect spot for a fall vacation with my kiddos. The location was very convenient and I can’t say enough about that view!! We loved watching the ducks on the water in the mornings and sitting around the solo stove on the beach in the evenings. My daughter is a baker so she appreciated the well appointed kitchen. There’s a bit of road noise so if you’re a light sleeper you may want a sound machine, but otherwise everything was absolutely perfect.

UNSAFE, UNSANITARY PROPERTY TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE FOR THIS OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY I PAID FOR IT
We were so excited to be staying here but our dream vacation turned into a nightmare when my elderly father stepped off the step in the garage and fell on the hard concrete floor and broke his arm in 2 places, shattering his elbow & requiring immediate surgery to save it. There are no railings in any part of this property for any of the stairs located throughout, & there is also a dangerous circular divet in the center of the garage floor, which is what I thought was the cause of Dad's fall, but it was the back step near the entrance of the house inside the attached garage. I would not recommend staying here if you have elderly or young children for this reason. After the incident when I reported the property unsafe to the property management they said it is code compliant because none of the stair locations exceed the requirement for railings, but there is also an area of concern with the brick pavers leading from the driveway to the front porch entrance; the spaces in between them are not filled in with mortar or earth and the edges tripped me also. I am 57 but in very athletic condition. The other complaint I voiced to the property management was the fecal material & a huge ball of human hair found at the foot of the bedsheets in the master bedroom. This bed was obviously not stripped between guests. We didn't discover this until we stripped the bed for my father's homecoming after he had spent half the vacation sleeping in the hospital.No clean sheets. UNACCEPTABLE

Great Beach!!
Stayed here with family for some relaxing beach time and loved it. The garage is fully equipped with kayaks, paddle boards, beach toys and lawn games! Nostalgic 60s feel inside, and amazing views for Grandma to sit inside and watch the kids play. Great spot! Would book again!

What a view!
Lovely beachfront in central location. Well appointed with very responsive management company. It’s on a busy street but did not detract from the experience. Amazing window in living room gives you views of the sunrise. Nice to have washer dryer, kayaks, bbq grill, firepit and adirondack chairs!! Recommend!

Great location on East Bay
We were pleased to find kayaks and paddle boards in the garage. The house appears to have been shut up for quite a while. There were spider webs to clean up in the hallways and bathrooms.

Very nice property
Perfect size for our group of 4 adults and 2 older teens. Plenty of space for us to spread out. Great location right on a sandy beach. Included the majority of items we needed; host was very responsive to anything else we needed or any questions we had. Situated nicely to all the attractions we wanted to see - easy day trip to Sleeping Bear dunes, several light houses and shopping. A stop at Moomers for ice cream is a must.
