Top notch

5 of 5
Submitted: March 9, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
My husband and I stayed here with 3 other couples and we couldn't have had a better time! The home is beautiful, with every luxury you could want for a weekend away. Fully upgraded kitchen and baths and more than enough room for us all to hang out together during the day but still have our separate sleeping areas. Fully stocked with kitchen utensils and linens as well as being immaculately clean. I would definitely recommend this home and am looking forward to visiting again in the summer!
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your comments. We would love to ave you back anytime, and in gratitude we will give you $100 dollars off your next visit. Just remind me when you book and I will apply the discount.

Couples Winter Getaway!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 6, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
My close friends and I spent the weekend catching up, laughing, and running around in the snow like kids! Then warmed up next to the fireplace. This house was like a home away from home. Nice and cozy! There was 8 adults and we still had an additional bedroom, tons of space. The house was well kept and had everything you could possible need. Before we left we were already discussing when to come back!
Can’t wait to book it again!

Michigan Family Get Away!

5 of 5
Submitted: September 26, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
The house was absolutely amazing and so well appointed. It was so roomy all 5 adults and two little ones each had enough room to never feel crowded. We went apple picking at Stover's and of course could not pass up Redamak's hamburgers. Our 2 year old granddaughter loved the swings and watching the koi in the pond. We could not stop talking about how much we enjoyed all the wonderful amenities in this house, we would return in a heartbeat! The location is so accessible to shopping and the beach and it was such an easy trip from Chicago to Union Pier. I only hope this house is available for our next get away! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with my family.

We rented this house for a weekend along with four other couples and could not have been more pleased with our stat. The house is gorgeous and big, beautifully renovated. There were plenty of clean towels, a huge gas gel and fire pit. I HIGHLY recommend this house!! Very close to the beach and restaurants in New Buffalo and wineries.
