The next room has two XL twin beds and a large closet. There is a common bathroom with a tub.

Perfect Lake Michigan Beach Getaway!
Beautiful spacious home! Everything you need for a Beach Vacation! Private Beach Access just a few blocks away… the bicycles added to the fun and ease of the short ten minute walk. We all had such an amazing time. The house is close to many amenities and the private neighborhood was beautiful. Loved having the beach gear and towels included! It made packing so much easier. The owner is easy to work with and even had the cleaning crew come early so that we could start our vacation a day early. Thanks Michelle!

Labor Day weekend wedding getaway
Super comfortable and spacious home for a Labor Day weekend getaway. The neighborhood was quiet and felt like a relaxing area. We didn’t explore much given the packed wedding weekend agenda, but everything was a quick drive. Will need to come back to check out the beach!! Beds were comfortable, and it was great to have extra space - 3 women getting ready for a wedding need to be able to spread out!! Check in and check out instructions were super clear, and hosts were friendly and proactive with their communication. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful property, and close to the lake.
We really enjoyed staying here. Location was perfect! The neighborhood is quiet and the walk to the lake is very easy. Beach chairs and floaters are available. We really enjoyed using the bikes to ride around. I definitely recommend for families or couples. An amazing relaxing experience and a nice break from our city life.

Great place for families
We really enjoyed our second stay at this property. The house was very clean upon arrival. It also has a variety of beach items available such as chairs, a wagon, beach toys, floats, etc., which we appreciated. The location is great, just a short drive or bike ride to New Buffalo and the small downtown of Union Pier. Our host was very kind and communicative. Check out procedures were reasonable.

Great vacation home
My husband and I really liked this house. Nice quiet neighborhood. When we went to the beach, there were so many beach toys, chairs, floats, etc. that it really made it great, especially with the grandkids. We loved the bikes! There is cornhole, basketball, and lots of things for the kids to do. Our only problem was the very light window coverings in the bedrooms. It is vacation after all, and it would be nice NOT to wake up with the sun each day. And the last night we were there, we had quite the light show from the lightning in our room from the storms, and we had a difficult time sleeping. Otherwise, I would have given it 5 stars. I would recommend this place for a great vacation.

Great Getaway
My friends and I have been staying in houses along the Michigan coast for several years. This house was one of our favorites. It was well maintained, clean, and had all the amenities needed for a stay along Lake Michigan. The private beach was not crowded and the walk to the beach was easily doable, but each day we drove to the beach there was always plenty of parking. A most enjoyable stay!

Spacious and well appointed cottage
We enjoyed our family girls’ trip to this home. The home is clean and in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed riding the bikes and sitting on the front patio. It’s a distance from the private beach so we drove to a nearby public beach that had parking. Union Pier is so sweet, a great area!

Rest and relaxation
Our family had a great time. We enjoyed the beach. Our dogs were allowed with us and we needed time to be away from home but didn’t have to drive a long way to have the beauty of woods and water. The hosts communicated with us and they were easy to work with. It was our second time here and we will plan to return next year if possible

Fabulous
Check in process was easy. We had 4 adults on this vacation, all four of us are completely happy with the rental. Clean place. We had a cookout , plenty of outdoor seating. The walk to the beach takes 8-10 minutes depending on what your caring. It was a pleasant walk to the beach, lots of deer, trees. You can drive if you have lots to drop off., that takes a couple of minutes. The beach is beautiful. We will rent this wonderful place again.
