This was actually my fault- I didn’t realize there was an AC window unit upstairs. The house was quite warm. Once I realized there was an upstairs AC, I was able to turn that on and cool the house a bit. I wish I’d have realized it sooner in the evening. Again, lack of observation on my part.

Nice location, love the decor!!

The water reservoir inside the coffee pot was filthy. We were not able to use it. We had to buy one for our stay.

Great location for us.

Thought it was tacky that the walls were covered with hand written rules. The cleaning fee was pretty hefty for a one night stay. The bedrooms are tiny, no place to put your clothes and none of the tvs in the bedrooms worked.

Close to casino, which is why we stayed. I'm sure this would be an awesome place to stay in the summer, as it is walking distance to shops, restaurants and Lake Michigan

The soda machine is a cute addition… but it only ate the quarters. Getting to the plates/glasses was awkward as they were in an open closet instead of cabinets but we managed just fine for the night.

The house was clean and bright. Loved the open concept for the living/dining rooms. I liked the back patio and yard and wish that we’d stayed in the summer so that we could utilize the grill and out door shower. The property owners were EXCELLENT at answering questions and addressing concerns. We really appreciated that!

Cozy and relaxing atmosphere

Upstairs area not the best with TV and beds. But again enjoyed our stay i would recommend a better way to watch TV upstairs.

Place was very clean amd great location

anything that could be improved is at the nitpicky level. there is a window ac unit in the downstairs bedroom that is much welcome and much needed in the summer, but it cranks out water so fast it was a bit difficult to keep up with draining the catch bucket.

charming little cottage with amusing details. there is an old-fashioned soda can vending machine in the kitchen, and a gumball machine in the dining room, that accept quarters. there are also surf, skim, and body boards available for use. there is a bicycle in the lounge that's for both decoration and function, but we did not use it. the cottage is directly across the street from a cash only dive called radamack's. the food was average, but the atmosphere was fun.

The 2nd bedroom upstairs had no walls. Open area.

Close to beach.

House was good beach cottage. Nothing I didn’t like about it.

I loved the surf theme and high ceilings.

Stayed in July 2024

We got bit by flies at 2 of the beaches, The Dunes and New Buffalo. Stores and restaurants closed at 9pm. My husband and kids are big people, some of the furniture was a bit small for them, not the owners fault. The house had 1 air-conditioning unit, but in the right room so it flowed throughout the house. Over all, it worked out. We are not uppercrust type people so it was great.

The home was spacious. Pet friendly. The beaches weren't far away. Food was great. Kemil Beach was the best experience ever. We walked the trail to the water tower.

The kitchen in particular was heavily perfumed with plug ins and whatnot. It was enough of a small space both guests reacted to it. Storage furniture in pantry is cramped. City garbage bin blocked a majority of the driveway (the only entrance) and required significant maneuvering when turning off a busy street.

Pretty, open layout with natural light in living area. Comfortable beds. Efficient heating and cooling of whole house. Overall clean and organized home.

Close to everything,perfect size for our Girls trip group had everything we needed.

Walk to town is a bit dangerous without sidewalks all the way. The sidewalks available to town were very uneven. The town needs to upgrade the sidewalks on East Buffalo Rd.

Town & Beach were on point.

Location was perfect. Close to beach and restaurants.

Privacy

The road in front got kind of annoying, hard to see to get out of the driveway due to the trees.

It was close to the lake, shops and restaurants.

Stayed in September 2022

Double beds were quite small, we went out of season, might be more vibrant in summer

Cool vibes, fun place.

We had a family of 6 staying at the home. It was a strange place. One room didn't have any air-conditioning and no ventilation. Another room was added off of the living room and just had walls, almost like a loft. Other areas weren't convenient as well. Not very many pots or pots were in poor shape, fridge door kept popping open, we had to exchange the propane tank because it was empty. Owners are not close by so there were many things overlooked. It could of been cleaner. I won't come back and stay here.

The area was quaint and close to the water.

Stayed in June 2024

Not central A/C. Only one bathroom downstairs. Only one bedroom with door. Other two are open lofts. Couch not cozy. A ton of seating but none cozy. Small couch and chairs only.

Convenience of shops and beach Early check-in Clean Communication of management.

It was next to a very busy road which is good but also bad because busy roads = lots of noise even while trying to sleep.

Close to certain places we were interested in visiting :-).

I think that whomever manages the house needs to pay more attention to details. There is a towel bar in the bathroom that comes out of the wall and needs to be reattached. Water was left in the Keurig coffee maker, and some glasses were dirty. I washed everything before we used it. Overall, it's a nice house, but it could some sprucing up.

It's very roomy, good location. Deck is nicely furnished, grill too. Well equipped kitchen. The home owner is very thoughtful she gave us a heads up on a possible storm, so our cars wouldn't be damaged by trees. Plenty of posted information regarding the property if a problem would arise, e.g. plumbing etc.
