Wonderful beach house, perfect for children

We loved this beach house. We spent a week here last week and again have a reservation for this summer. It is truly our vacation that our children and the parents (us) look forward to. The beach is pristine, wide and the water gradually gets deeper with no drop off. The beach is only about 15 feet away from the house, about 35 steps to go down, not steep steps either, very gradual. There is no fear for my childrens safety as they can walk 50 feet out in the water before it even gets waist deep, I walk for miles on end on the beach, breathtaking views. The beach is private and never any crowds, probably becuase not many rentals in this area, very nice homes . This house is clean and kid friendly, Love the outdoor shower for the kids and the many woods behind and all around the house for the kids to explore. There was not one thing we needed when we were here. We have a family of 7 but there was room for one more, sleeps 8. The screened in porch was a treat as our children each took turns taking the cot out there to sleep during the night. Alot of movies are in the house, all kid friendly. DVD. There is no internet here but when my husband needed to check something he drove into Pentwater, MI just a few miles away and used his laptop at an outdoor restaurant and then another time he brought it to the parking lot of the Pentwater library where he received an internet signal at night even when the library was closed. The wrap around porch served as a giant playpen for my 2 year old as they have a baby gate that I put on at the one opening above the stairs on the wrap around porch. So as you can see we truly enjoyed this house and would highly recommend to those that want quiet ( the neighborhood is very quiet), wildlife, beach and relaxation.
