This property is close to everything--New Buffalo beach and Stray Dog, Warren Dunes, the farmer's markets--and for those who prefer a pool to a beach, the pool and hot tub at this home are fabulous!!! Loved it so much, we hope to come back for a week next year (instead of a long weekend).

We had a wonderful family getaway. It was the perfect venue for people of all ages. There was plenty of room for the littles to run around in a safe environment and yet also accommodate the adults. We highly recommend this location and look forward to using it again.

Loved the house, super clean and comfortable. Hot tub was hot, clean and ready for us! Our unexpected fav hangout spot was the heated garage with so much ping pong and foosball played, and giant tv on! So much fun, plenty of room for our group and kitchen came fully stocked with all types of pans and anything we needed to cook Thanksgiving dinner. We had a great time! Only thing we didn’t love was that it wasn’t the BEST walking in the area for kids cause no sidewalks but that was a pretty minor inconvenience. Super close to New Buffalo as well which was a plus. Overall would definitely be back. Great communication by host. Thanks!!

Everything was great, the house was clean and the perfect size for our group.
The only thing that was a little strange, is that our checkin was at 4 and the cleaning people were still there til about 4:30, it was only 2 guys and a very large house so its understandable and they did a great job but we did need to get in right at check in so that felt a little awkward.
Overall it was a great place, would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful experience with our family of 12 at this property. The spaces were big with plenty of room for all of us. Especially appreciated the second refrigerator in the garage/game area. Clean, well-stocked, and easy in / easy out. Great communication from owner, too. One suggestion would be to replace the electric stove at some point. We were able to cook on it, but the burners were a little tricky to get up to speed with heat. Not enough of a problem to reduce stars...just a thought for improvement at some point. Appreciated the heated garage with games and play area, as well as the hot tub. We would not hesitate to re-up for another stay in the future. Thank you!!

We stayed at this beautiful house for New Year's Eve, stayed til New Year's Day 11am. We had such a great time. The house was clean and very spacious, great for a family gathering. I had no issues communicating with the property owner, response time was exceptional! I would recommend this place for anyone looking to have some quality family time! It was so fun, I can imagine how great it would be to stay here in the summer and using the pool. We did use the hot tub with no issues...highly recommend!!

The property was amazing for a 4 couple get together. Every couple had their own space and The kitchen and great room were used for the common area and was used most of the time for conversations and fun! There are many bathrooms and a heated garage that has a wonderful game room. Hot tub in the middle of winter was relaxing. The in ground pool looked amazing, however, it was not the season. I'm sure it is an amazing place for a family in the summer. Deer casually walk across the back yard in groups of 6-8. Absolutely wonderful memories created. We will continue to make this an annual trip. Thanks, Tim! You are a fantastic host!

We had an absolute fabulous stay in this beautiful home. The home was immaculate and offered so many incredible features. It truly is the perfect getaway for small or large groups. We appreciated the thoughtful touches and amazing amenities and it was a great location close enough to travel hot spots while being far enough away to truly feel like it was a getaway. The beds were very comfortable and the little areas of the home allowed for awesome time apart from the larger group. I would only make two small suggestions ...adjust the posting on the site to not reflect a room with 3 king beds as we were counting on that in our plans and were surprised to see it was not there in the actual home layout. There were so many beds in the home that it didn't cause a problem for our stay but would recommend adjusting the posting so it does not upset future guests. I would also recommend posting the wifi password and any checkout requests in the home. We had an incredibly quick response from the owner when we asked for it but if it were in the home it would avoid having to bother the owner. Again these were minor recommendations to an overall amazing and fabulous stay and experience.

I rented this property and unfortunately, due to my stepdad's illness and subsequent passing which happened the day of checkin, we were unable to use the rental. We were just a couple of days past the refund window and reached out to the owner, explaining our situation and hoping for some understanding. Unfortunately, the owner refused to issue even a partial refund or assist in relisting the property, citing concerns about his ranking on VRBO.
While I understand the importance of cancellation policies, it was disheartening to experience such a lack of empathy during a very difficult time for our family. Even VRBO representatives suggested that the owner reconsider, but he insisted that we should have purchased insurance and did not offer any further assistance.
I would caution others to be aware that this owner may not be flexible or understanding in unforeseen circumstances.

Very clean, tons of space and perfect for large gatherings. There were no check out instructions, I had to ask for them. Very little communication from owner, but we rent a lot so it was fine. There were a lot of lady bugs in the house, common this time of year with old homes, so again didn't really bother us. Our kids loved catching them! Please note that, although very kid friendly otherwise, all dinnerware is glass and ceramic, so byo kids plates and cups!!

We stayed in this querky but roomy house while we were in Union Pier for a memorial service. The house is definitely set up to accommodate families with rooms organized so parents and children can be together almost like mini-suites. The house is targeted to be a summer/fall rental; unfortunately, with the weather below freezing, we did not get to take advantage of the large pool, hot tub, and spacious yard. The converted garage into a rec room proved very popular with the dads and youth who were also in town. The kitchen and baths are all renovated and spacious with ample hot water and decent water pressure. For some reason, we lost heat while we were at the memorial, but the host responded to our message within 20 minutes and it didn't take long to be toasty warm. The only suggestion for improvement would be to upgrade the towels in the baths to be as nice as the pool towels. If we ever need to stay in Union Pier again, I hope this rental is available!
