Great location
This house was just perfect for a trip to the dunes, closely located, and with ample parking for large trailers. It was perfect for our family of four and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

Family time
We had a wonderful time. Pleasantly surprised with all the kitchen items, first time that I didn't need to use things that I brought with us. Enjoyed the comfort, cleanliness, and the outdoor space. The neighbors were very friendly and the neighborhood was close to many activities that we enjoyed! Will definitely be back!!!

Just what we wanted
This is just what we were looking for. We’ve stayed in Silver Lakes for years but in the hotel. I really wanted a place we could cook and be more at home. The location was great. The neighborhood was quiet. The bunk house was a perfect place to shove our teens! Check in was easy. The property was clean and had all we needed. Would stay here again.

Dune Fun!
My family’s stay at Four Pines was wonderful! The cabin is updated, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything needed. The cabin is in a great location and neighborhood. My daughter and her friend (both 15yrs old) stayed in the bunkhouse. My husband liked the paved circle drive with ample space for our truck, side-by-side, 4-wheeler and trailer. This cabin is a great pick for family fun! Pack toiletries for both bathrooms (shampoo, condition, soap).

Family Vacation 2023
We go to Silver lake every year to celebrate our sons birthday. It was a beautiful and clean property. It was easy to get a hold of the owner with any issues and quick response. We were very happy with the accommodations. We would stay there again.

Convenient, clean, & perfect neighborhood
From check in to check out we enjoyed our stay. Updated and clean cabin so close to everything for a great price! Adorable neighborhood and great outdoor layout for recreation after the dunes. Plenty of parking for our two trailers and 3 vehicles - and with a turn-around! I have two “could be improved” items but they are barely notable. 1. The bunkhouse is very tight. We couldn’t have anyone sleep on the top bunk due to the fan and there’s almost no room to walk around the bed in there, it’s mainly a bathroom with a bed in it. It worked for the teens to have their own space though! 2. The AC Nest thermostat is set to only work when it sees movement, so it would take hours for the house two regulate. Not sure if that setting can be changed, but having a Nest one is nice in itself 🙂 Thank you again! Your cousins are great and your cabin is beautiful!
