There is a grape arbor to sit under (seats 6). Wrens adorn the arbor. The large kitchen welcomes large gatherings. You can watch the moon over the lake all night long in the master bedroom. A yellow stairway invites you to the beach. You're within walking distance to infamous Michigan blueberries (you pick).

Review Submitted: September 23, 2007 Date of Stay: September 2007
A lovely artsy home - great for large groups. In hot weather however ,the fans, and there are many, can't do the job of air-conditioning. Without window coverings - the sun heats up the house aplenty.
Owner's Response: We have installed cieling fans in all the upstairs bedrooms , one in the living room and 2 in the kitchen and dining room (one big room). We also installed all new blinds on all the west window facing the lake. We think this has taken care of any heat concerns.

superb location and view

Review Submitted: June 17, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2008
The property owners are wonderful. We were allowed to bring our 3, well-behaved dogs. It is quiet with plenty of space between the houses. The view of the lake is superb! Awesome breeze off teh lake comes through front and side windows. All windows are rather large. Also, easy access to the lake either straight down the bank (relatively steep) or via a short walk down a flat lane several properties over.
The only thing we didn't like about this property is that although we both appreciate art, the art decor in this place is gaudy. And there is a huge variety of it, unfortunately. We tried to keep an open mind at first, but we ended up feeling like we couldn't really relax in the house because there is so much of it and it is all art that depicts "energy" with bright colors...oddly combined even. I spent most of my relaxing time outside in the hammock on the porch which is wonderful. We could not see gaudy art in the pictures on the posting.
We also were not too happy about the house being dirty. We could tell they thought they had cleaned, but only the basic areas were wiped down. Bathrooms, bedrooms and living room just not nearly as clean as we are used to.

Review Submitted: September 20, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We rented this home for a week in August, and our experience far surpassed what we ever expected. The property was perfect for our family vacation with children, and the amenities covered our every need. I'd highly recommend this property for a vacation with children. The hosts were gracious and I plan on coming back to the Sandcastle in the future. Because the nights cool down, there was never a need for air conditioning.
