Our family had a great weekend at the Owls Nest. The location is perfect. If you bring groceries, there is no need for a car. The beach is a short walk away (even with toddlers) and the restaurant at the end of the street is a great place to bring the kids too. The house is clean and spacious and had everything we needed, from beach chairs to Roku.

The house is bright, open, comfortable and inviting. We enjoyed reading on the front porch and dining on the screened porch. The kitchen is well-equipped. The beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc., made those we brought unnecessary. The wagon made the half-block walk to the beach, that much easier. The shed had ample room for bike storage and the nearby bike routes were well-marked and lovely. All-in-all, we were able to settle in quickly and vacation seamlessly.

My family loves this property for our summer vacation. The home's open floor plan lends itself to just hanging out, cooking meals, watching TV, and catching up on the U-shaped window seat. The guest cottage is a great place to go for those who need a little seclusion. There's plenty of beach toys and gear for all ages, and a nice fire pit to gather around in the evening. The host is very responsive and helpful with any issues that come up during your stay. Can't wait to come back again!!

We had a great 2.5 day stay at Owls Nest with family. The house was clean, fully stocked with everything you could need or want and in a prime location, just a block to the beach. The beach was beautiful. Soft sand, clear blue water and private. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to return next year!

Loved out stay at the Owls Nest beach house. Very clean and everything there that you need. Guest house is a cozy cutie with extra space for privacy and down time. Private yard for fun and bon fires. Lovely neighborhood and very close walk to the beach. Quiet clean beach and lots of opportunity to make many wonderful memories. Definitely would visit again. Thank you for the great time and memories!

We are two seniors who shared the house and cottage with our adult children and their families. The cottage was perfect for my daughter and her husband who have a one-year-old. The main house is well accessorized, bright, and airy. We loved sitting out by the campfire in the evening and walking the neighborhood after dark under the stars . The beach is beautiful - fine sand but a little challenging to climb back up for us older folks. We found a more gradual public access a little further down the road. All in all, it was a great success as a family gathering.

The Owls Nest is great on many levels. The house is very well stocked with supplies. Had every kitchen utensil we needed and lots of beach toys and furniture. A very short walk to the beach made it all the more enjoyable - you did not fret if you had to walk back to the house for anything. Martin is a great host and we hope to stay at the Owls Nest again someday.

Hosts are easy to work with and respond quickly. Close to beach access but be aware there is a hill and stairs to navigate to get there. All beach toys, chairs, etc. available. Only reason I gave cleanliness a 4 was a lack of attention to detail (large cobwebs in corners)….but it might just be me. Definitely would rent again.

This was our second stay here and again more great memories were made! Every aspect of our stay was provided for completely. The house and property were spotless and communication with the property manager was easy and quick. It's in a great neighborhood and the neighbors were friendly and a lot of fun. I would recommend this property to everyone because when you get there all you have to do is enjoy, everything you need will be there or just a quick phone away. We're already talking about our next trip!

The house was perfect for our family and just a block away from the beach. It was clean and much bigger than I thought it would be. The teenagers enjoyed having their own space in the bunkhouse. We’ve already booked it again for next summer!

This has been the first year at the owls nest. I have been coming to Union Pier since I was a little girl and love the area and beached. The propery is such close walk to a beautiful and clean private beach. The house had a beautiful open floor plan that made it very welcoming for our family along with a guest house and screened in porch. The owners had kitchen supplies for cooking and beach essentials to allow less packing. I highly recommend and would rent the Owls Nest again.

Recently stayed at the property for a short getaway to enjoy the beach. Property was exactly as described and an excellent location for a very short walk to the beach and the whistle stop for coffee in the morning or to pick up a quick sandwich in the afternoon. Short drive to New Buffalo to walk around the town and enjoy the local restaurants. Appreciated all the amenities that are included with the stay. Would stay here again for a future family trip.

Our family enjoyed our stay here. It was very comfy and we loved the screened in porch. The location was great for the Whistle Stop. Their Lemon Poppy muffins were amazing! Martin was so nice to talk to and checking in and out was very easy. Our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer!

We’ve stayed in the Union Pier area for our family vacation for 10 years and this by far was our favorite! The house is perfect for kiddos and grown ups alike, not to mention beautiful. The location is great for beach access, getting to Town Line road for groceries or gelato and taking neighborhood walks. We enjoyed making many wonderful memories on the water, around the bonfire, and within this very welcoming home away from home!

More spacious than expected

More spacious than expected

The place is a dream! Lots of space without feeling too disconnected with the other families. A short walk to a beautiful private beach. Lots of beach towels so no need to bring your own. Only hiccup was I couldn’t find a check in email with info on the check in/out but a quick text to the owner and they were able to give necessary info. The space is seriously awesome and we plan to rebook for next summer. The kitchen was well stocked with necessary dishes but lacked spices so I would recommend bringing some. That is the only thing I wish I would’ve brought. The whistle stop is walking distance with some light premium groceries and coffee, and sandwiches for lunch. A very short drive to Black Currant bake house for baked sweet goods and sandwich options (vegetarian and vegan) was our fav. We spent every day on the beach. Beware of mosquitos though.

Our stay at Owls Nest went beyond my expectations in every way! Truth be told, I over packed as I was not sure what to expect. The owners have thought of everything from beach chairs and towels to a more than well equipped kitchen. This place had everything we needed to make our family feel right at home. We are a family of 6, stayed a full week and it was hard to leave. We will definitely visit this rental again in the future (our kids are already planning the next trip)!

I love this cottage. We rented it two years ago when my son got married in Three Oaks, Tried to rent it last year when our daughter was having a baby shower. Luckily we were able to rent it this year to celebrate our son 40 th birthday. A great place for family to spend time making great memories.
