A lovely experience!
We so enjoyed our stay at the Creek House. We loved watching birds through the giant windows and sitting out on the deck, and there was plenty of space to spread out and relax. It was quiet and felt remote but was super close to restaurants, beaches, etc. We hope to be back again!

Peaceful Creek House
This was our first time booking through Vrbo. I have to say the experience went fairly well. The Creek House delivered all that it promised. It was a very peaceful and beautiful house. The Host was very thoughtful in making sure the kitchen had all that is needed to prepare a lovely meal. Just bring your groceries and enjoy cooking in the lovely kitchen. The bedrooms had all that you needed, including extra linens and towels. The office in the master bedroom had supplies for those who may be doing some work while on your getaway. The main bathroom had a deep jetted tub that was very relaxing and a great feature in this house. The beautiful views throughout the house give this home such a lovely feel. My daughter enjoyed bird watching from the living room's windows. The outside space was a great bonus to the Creek House. We sat outside in the evening and listened to the water and evening creatures. When we decided to stay in for the day, our children enjoyed their basketball and tennis court. We also enjoyed from the host's collection of board games, card games and pool table. There was a lot of bonding time that was easily created in this home. One of the main reasons I picked this house was because it is pet friendly. Our two fur buddies were welcomed to enjoy this getaway with us. They loved the outdoors just as much as we did. ALL & ALL. The Creek House and The Host have earned 5 Stars! We hope to be back next year.

Peaceful Getaway spot
What a lovely spot to relax and recharge! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cottage. Our favorite spot was on the back deck. We watched the creek babble by while the birds came and went from the feeders. There were three chipmunks who come and eat the birdseed fallout. Chippy 1, Chippy 2 and Roger are their names if you meet them :) We loved the remoteness of the location and the peaceful surroundings. The house was clean and the bed was very comfortable. We appreciated the kitchen having everything you may need to cook. The pizza place in Three Oaks was amazing too! Our dog Sophie probably had the best time out of us all. Lots to sniff, chipmunks to befriend and dragonflies to try to chomp :) We will definitely stay here again!

Our Spring Break Getaway
We were looking for someplace to relax and get away and have a change of scenery. This place was just that. It was peaceful and quiet and allowed us to bring our two dogs. We did not expect the birdwatching we were able to do. It was awesome to see the variety of birds that came to the feeders. The kids even had a chance to play some tennis and we even got to do some hiking at Warren Dunes. The property manager, Anne, was always very responsive and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Plenty of space
We loved the setbacks from the road but being less than 5 minutes from everything we wanted: restaurants, grocery store, etc. Beautifully decorated and plenty of things to do onsite. Very pet friendly and not crazy priced helps make families feel whole, warm, and welcome. We had a great Thanksgiving and cooked it all onsite while enjoying the views.

Cozy house, beautiful property
This was a perfect cozy spot with good vibes to get away for a weekend. The wall of music was a ton of fun to explore, we loved the artwork and decor throughout the house, and the the fall colors were amazing on the trees all around the property. Would love to come back again in a different season and use the outdoor sleeping area. 10/10!

Cottage in the Woods
We had a short girl’s weekend at this property. Easy to find, plenty of room and tons of seating around the home…inside and out! Beach day was ruined because of an all day rain, but the detached screened in porch was the perfect spot to chat, read, listen to music and enjoy being surrounded by a heavily wooded area, a babbling brook and the soothing pater of rain all around us. Would be lovely in the winter with snow too!

Second time staying and we'll be back!
I love this house. It's truly a haven. There's so much to do (pool, games, music), but my favorite thing was to sit on the porch and watch the birds bathe in the water. Really really recommend this property for a romantic getaway or a fun few days with pals. Amazing communication with both the property manager and the owner is the cherry on top!

Perfect Vacation Getaway
This rental was perfect for our vacation with friends and family. Plenty of sleeping space, shared space, and outdoor spaces. The bed in the master bedroom was the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to cook all our meals. The hot tub was wonderful at the end of each day. The house is in a great location, close to the charming town of Three Oaks and close to beaches.

Perfect getaway
Three Oaks was a perfect getaway where you felt like you were in the middle of nowhere but really you were 7 miles from the Lake. The house is 1 mile from Three Oaks town proper if you needed anything. We brought all our groceries, because COVID, but had to go into town for a few things. We were relieved to see folks in masks. We truly enjoyed our stay at the house. We loved the open layout and the all window living room. We spent most of our time in there enjoying the high ceilings and watching the birds come to the feeder. The creek had fish swimming upstream. The house had a lot of different ways to entertain our group from the 4K music CDs to the pool table and jukebox. The kitchen was well equipped as I cooked three meals each day we were there. I think the only thing is that there is one shower and the larger bathroom has a bathtub with a shower wand. We didn't mind it, but some might be surprised. Overall, it felt like home and we can't wait to come back when it snows.

Great vacation home
This is a great vacation home. Floor to ceiling windows look out onto a river that runs through the back yard. The property is set back and you are surrounded by nature. The kitchen has good equipment if you want to cook. There are loads of books to read, CDs to listen to and games to play. We stayed in early October and the heat worked very well. The town of 3 Oaks is cute and has good food.

Great getaway!
The owner told us our dogs would like their stay even more than we did.. and it was a great place for 2 city dogs to run around wild (but safe) and burn off all that quarantine energy. Same for us. We went to Journeyman, cooked out, campfire, but mostly just relaxed in our first trip out of the city. I hope to take advantage of the weekly/monthly rentals some day soon as it is just a perfect getaway from Chicago. Thanks!

Great Getaway
The property is set back from the road and quiet. There are several lovely spots to curl up and read or relax with fresh air coming in through the screened windows. The CD collection was a lot of fun. The big drawback for us was that the hot tub wasn't working. It was a big reason we booked the house, and we probably would've gone elsewhere if we'd known. The indoor jacuzzi took a very long time to fill and didn't feel all that clean. Overall, though, we loved that the house was a quiet, peaceful place to get away for a socially-distanced vacation. Easy access to beaches and dunes, and the town also had some good restaurants and businesses. If not for the hot tub/jacuzzi issues, this would be a fully raving 5-star review. The property manager was very kind and attentive. It's definitely on a list of places I'd consider renting again!
