Was very nice given the storm that hit a week before. Our need is a bit of a different layout........the kitchen layout with the open stays....we remedied with a chair laid over the entrance, We wish you the best with the repairs and thank you for not cancelling us.

Great location
Loved beach location and proximity to restaurants and Red Arrow highway. Wonderful linens and towels. Nicely furnished. Christopher helpful. Enjoyed the hot tub. Great beach chairs, umbrellas. Charming gazebo. Listed as 4 bedrooms but one "bedroom" is part of the basement. House is 90 years old and basement is clean but has the distinct smell of damp. We could not feel good about anyone sleeping down there. Owners need to address damp and refresh outdoor kitchen and bathroom in main bedroom. Need new stove as well in kitchen. Only 1 burner worked. Would stay again if we didn't need the 4th bedroom.

Beautiful, very clean home. Great view of lake from living area and deck. Manager very nice young man who meets you at the house upon arrival and is quick with any needed communication. Bedroom in the back of the house has absolutely no privacy as the door is completely see thru. It does sit down from the living area by about 4 steps. We put up a blanket over the stair rail to allow some privacy. The shower is a little tricky to get in and out of but great water pressure. Beds comfortable. Kids loved the hot tub. Beach is clean and swimmable with little ones. No stones as seen in some of the lake if you go further North. Very few pay attention to the private beach signs but it is very much a family oriented beach. You can walk quite some distance either way. Beach chairs provided and many beach chairs. It is truly a lovely home but maybe priced a little high for the size.

Lovely Memorial Day weekend getaway!
We had a great experience at this property. It’s directly on a private beach with a maybe 50 stairs down to the beach. The house is well stocked with some beach chairs, and canopy and all the kitchen items you need! Plenty of towels! Chris, the host, was very accessible and accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

September family time
We met part of our family here in mid September. The weather was wonderful for the first few days. The beach was fabulous as was the house. Chris is a great property manager. We had to move our vacation time by a few days twice because our grandson was sick. Chris worked this out with the owner and we so appreciated it. Chris met us at the property and filled us in on the things we needed to know including great restaurants in the area! We had a couple of questions during our stay and Chris was quick to get back with us. About 3 hours into our trip back home, we realized that we had left some clothes there. We reached out to Chris and he is in the process of sending them to us at home. He has definitely gone the extra mile for us and we very much appreciate his efforts on our behalf! This property is a win win!

Amazing Family Time on the Beach
Property has the most amazing views of Lake Michigan from large deck and a cabana and private beachfront. Our family had a wonderful time lounging on the beach, kayaking, paddle boarding, and numerous beach games. Hot tub in private nook alongside the house was a big hit as well. Very cute home with beautiful views and great living room/kitchen/dining area overlooking lake. Comfortable bedrooms, pretty Art Deco details throughout the home. Very responsive manager who gave us numerous helpful tips for the area. Short walk from the home to yummy bakery, small grocery place, gelato, and short drive to multiple restaurants. Highly recommend!

Beautiful, unique property
My husband and I stayed for 3 nights in September. The interior of the house and spacious deck are very nice. The weather was unfortunately not the best when we were there, but we still enjoyed our stay. The hot tub was a bonus in the cooler weather. There are some nice restaurants and breweries nearby which we took advantage of. The neighborhood is very nice and of course being right on Lake Michigan is great. The property has a nice sandy private beach. The only thing I would mention is that if you staying with a large group, the bedrooms all have doors with glass panels which don't provide the best privacy -so keep that in mind. It was just myself and my husband so it was not an issue. Overall great place, would stay again.

Wonderful experience
The home is nicely appointed and well equipped. The furnishings are very clean and well maintained. The main attraction is the deck and gazebo. The house deck has plenty of trees to give shade but an opening to let the lake and sunset views in. The gazebo affords you to sit closer to the lake, enjoy a glass of wine or coffee, read a book and nap - all of which we enjoyed. Christopher was easy to work with and always available. He knows the area well and has recommendations for anything you would need. Perfect vacation!

July 4 Week
Wife and I and 3 teenagers (14, 17, 19) spent 4th of July week. House exudes character and had everything we needed. Sonos was great and used a lot on deck and hot tub area. Rented kayak and paddleboard from Outpost Sports. Chris took care of and was very helpful with local recommendations. Deck has firepit for marshmallow and smores. Impressed by lack of bugs as owner sprays for mosquitoes. Location is perfect with fantastic views of Lake Michigan from deck, gazebo and beach. New Buffalo to south and St. Joseph to north are nice towns to walk and explore and satisfied my wife and daughters shopping needs. Recommend Timothy's for dinner - food and service outstanding. Would come back again.

Lovely Thanksgiving on the Lake
Our family of five (plus the dog) stayed at Casa De Lago over Thanksgiving. The house was wonderful. Plenty of space for all of us. And the location was fabulous. Even though it was chilly we sat on the deck to admire the view. Christopher was super to work with. Super responsive and helpful. He even recommended a local place to get a fresh turkey! Highly recommend.

Birthday weekend
We stayed at the Casa de Lago for my wife's birthday weekend with seven other friends. The view and beach were wonderful and the house was well equipped for our group. There is a spacious deck with a built-in grill and a gazebo with an extra pull out sofa. The biking opportunities were good and there are many good restaurants and cafes nearby. The sunsets were gorgeous! We will definitely plan another stay if this house is available.
