"Amir (host) was very accommodating and very responsive. Tom (manager) was very nice and welcoming. Our cottage (#6) was exactly as described. It would be helpful to remind the guests to bring their own sheets/ blankets, towels, and pillows. The property also has a common fire pit, trampoline, a sand pit, and volleyball net. Each cottage also has a BBQ grill. Across the street, there is a splash pad and a playground for little kids. There is a also a bike/ walking trail just beside the playground, overlooking Lake Huron. Overall, we had an amazing and relaxing time and we look forward to staying here again. ❤️"

"This was a great place to stay. The backyard was very private and offered lots of space to play games and hang out with the whole crew. The outdoor kitchen was a huge plus. We didn’t have much rain, but you could hang out in there if it was raining. Lots of great little features in there. Fridge, stove, sink, Bluetooth speaker, speakers, icemaker, futon, TV, fireplace, it was fantastic little outdoor kitchen/bar set up.The inside was a decent amount of space for everyone and pretty clean. The downstairs bathroom is tiny, but it serves its purpose. The front sunroom, while exceptionally hot most of the time, offered a fantastic place to drop everything when you came back from the beach. Kept all the sand out of the house."
