Great place to stay
Jon was so sweet and helpful with providing all of the information needed prior to arriving. It really helped me plan my family's vacation. My family of 10 stayed here for Memorial Day weekend. It is the perfect location! Just a few minutes from Craig’s Cruiser's, Lake Michigan and the Dunes. We had a blast all weekend. Tons of stuff to do for all ages. Thank you Jon! We will be back :)

Roomy and quiet setting
This vacation cottage exceeded expectations for our stay and the owner was very easy to communicate with. The cottage was very clean and equipped with additional kitchen items such as a crock pot and griddle. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood while eating meals outdoors or enjoying a campfire. We would rent this cottage again!

Last minute reservation- made this a great find!
The property was in an excellent location. The property manager was a great communicator and very responsive. He informed me of an issue with the washer and dryer and once he learned of my planned need for doing laundry he got service arranged for the next day. We did encounter a unfriendly neighborhood dog that would consistently come on the property and taunt our dogs through the windows. Unfortunately this did result in damage to a window blind. These few items did not overshadow the great time this stay offered.

Annual Trip to Dunes & Craigs Cruzers
Everyone had a great time & the house worked great for us. We especially enjoyed the use of the Kayaks. We had a change of plan & didn't have the family grand-dog with us afterall, although we didn't find out until the rest of the party arrived. We hope to have him next time, as he was welcome & was provided for in the reservation. Thanks so much!!

Great location
Cool spot that is right at Upper Silver Lake. A couple cool access points to the lake where the kids can swim and play in the sand. Just a short drive to the sand dunes and Lake Michigan. Didn’t realize at time of booking that you are responsible for all cleaning and washing sheets, but was able to pay for that to be taken care of later. Didn’t like the fact that we had to make all five beds when we got there. Not sure if this is due to not having cleaners or what. Other than that, it was a cool spot and Jon (Host) was very responsive and easy to work with.
