The Lakehouse on Lake Michigan

Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our weekend stay at your beach house was fantastic. We had 4 couples and there was so much room. The house was so clean and welcoming. The beds were very cozy. We walked on the beach every morning and in the evenings we watched the awesome sunsets. The view from the deck was breath taking. We even walked to the museum and toured the USS Silversides. That was so educational. The brochures were very helpful in finding things to do in town. We thank you so much for the opportunity of using your home. We had a great time and would come back again.

Our trip around the lake!

Review Submitted: October 7, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
What a beautiful place Lake Michigan is, made even better by our stay at this lake house! There were 4 of us staying here; me, my Wife and 2 boys aged 15 & 11. Having spent time in and driven from Chicago our weeks stay was to be our chill out week! We made the most of the bikes and the beach and certainly didn't get bored of the sunsets in the evenings.

We loved the quirkiness of this place, the house was very clean and well equipped and the owners where on site to greet us with a lovely warm welcome. We're from England (not New!) and enjoyed the warmth of all the people we met. A great place to stay and we will always have fond memories of our time spent here.

Things to do: We went to Michigan Adventures (great fun!), went go-karting, played crazy golf, visited USS Silverside, went to Grand Haven and watched the Musical Fountain. Chris from near Brighton, England!

Family Vacation 2010

Review Submitted: August 23, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
As many have mentioned this is a very clean property. The view of Lake Michigan is wonderful from the front deck. Our family enjoyed riding the bikes, which were provided with the house. Silversides at the channel are within easy walking distance. We encountered several minks that live in the rocks on the pier. 3 deer came to visit us from the woods behind the house. The only drawback to the property was the lack of air conditioning in the hot weather. Many fans are provided. Our family had a great time!

"Thank you for such a wonderful stay at your beach house! The location was superb! We enjoyed the beach view from the front balcony and the "forest" view from the back balcony. We also appreciated how clean the house was and how well it was stocked house. We will definitely be back. :)"

Michigan vacation

Review Submitted: August 1, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
This was our family's first vacation at a non-hotel property. We had a wonderful week in Michigan. The kids enjoyed the beach and bikes. The water was a little too cold to stay in for very long, but it was refreshing for quick dips. We walked to the lighthouses and other local sights (ice cream store). It was a very enjoyable stress-free vacation, and we will certainly do it again in the future.
Our group included 3 adults, 1 18-year old, and 2 16-year olds. Plenty of room and activities to keep them busy for the week. It definitely surpassed our expectations and was a pleasant surprise.
