Had a great vacation at this home.... Even though the weather did not cooperate a few days we still had a great time. We had all of our adult children/spouses as well as my 87-year-old father and new grandbaby with us... The amenities are fabulous, the owner was very responsive and it's a great little area for a quiet relaxing trip!!

This was an amazing property to stay at for our Labor Day getaway with friends! The house had plenty of space and activities for all. We were a short walk to the beach, and they supplied ample beach towels, chairs, etc. We did venture to the beach a couple of times, but didn’t need considering the amazing pool setup they had. We had everything we needed and more! The bedrooms were all very clean and comfy, and there were plenty of areas to gather or escape to as needed. The house itself was beautifully designed and decorated. Most importantly, the owners were very accommodating, responsive, and communicative before and during our visit. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting the area!

We had the opportunity to spend the weekend at Kevin's lovely home. We had four families staying together with children ranging from 6 months to 10 years old. It was the best vacation rental experience ever!
Kevin is a wonderful host. Because our group was made up of different families, we had more questions than normal leading up to our stay. Kevin's responses were always very thorough and helpful. It was evident that he took time to answer each question.
The home itself is as beautiful as the pictures. It is a gorgeous home and it is very comfortable. Everyone enjoyed the accomodations. We cooked most of our meals in the kitchen/on the grill and it enjoyable.
The pool was clean and very warm. The children really enjoyed it. Speaking of the children, from the pool toys, game closet, game systems, tvs in every room...the kids were easily entertained.
We hope we have the opportunity to stay at this wonderful property again!

The house was fantastic for our large group. Very functional layout that feels comfortable and never crowded. Kevin and Ellen were very easy to work with and did not overlook any detail. The house was well stocked for the many activities to choose from. Kids loved the bunk room and we couldn’t keep them out of the pool! Everything in the house worked perfectly and was easy to use. Thanks for allowing us to share your home.

This property owner included so many amenities, from a game closet, to pool inflatables, to dining seating for ten on the screened porch.
Our multi-generational family had a wonderful time.

This house was gorgeous on the inside and out! It is super clean and they had everything we needed from top to bottom! The A/C unfortunately went out on us during our stay, but Kevin had a maintenance man there within the hour to fix it! If we had a question about anything, the owners were very responsive within minutes. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This property is ideal for a group gathering! Our teens were very impressed -- Nana did well! All enjoyed this home immensely!
Plenty of gathering space, never mind en suite bathrooms, and extra bathrooms for those rooms without ensuite. The house sleeps 20 and often times we have found (we are a large family!) that the house does not seat 20 for dining, nor supply dinnerware, cutlery, glassware et al for 20, nor appropriate wifi band for 20 plus cell phones, Ipads, computers....THIS HOUSE DID!!!! Plenty of bathrooms, blankets, linens, serviceware, and WIFI for all! It became a game ...'what doesn't the house have?' When we needed something, we searched...and the answer was 'THEY HAVE IT!!!' Nothing has been overlooked in the design of this home as well as the comfort for we vrbo'ers!
We used the pool room as well -- the ping pong table provided hours of entertainment for all! Since we were a Thanksgiving visit, the pool was not available nor wanted! Brrrrr -- a freezing tailgate at the BC v ND game and a return to luxurious home with blazing (gas) fireplace, a Solo stove at the ready outside....an amazing porch which became our walk-in fridge! A few days later when the weather warmed up, folks gathered there to work. We had several students zooming, several adults working, and plenty of space for little ones to roam while folks had quiet spaces as well. The house was terrific! Kudos to the owners for their design and thoughtfulness in providing so much to make their home special to us. And -- we had a slight problem with the water heater ...the property owner was readily available despite traveling with his family and was considerate of our situation and most accommodating...problem was solved quickly, efficiently and with no hesitation! Bravo again to the property owners.
It must a real treat in the summer to walk to the lake -- 10 minutes away -- we had a Turkey Bowl there! Beautiful beach, beautiful sunsets! And to be able to enjoy the pool. Alas we were there in cold weather ...perhaps another visit in the summer!!!
Thanks so much to the property owners! Our First Thanksgiving together in many years and a real treat to have all our children and grandchildren under one roof! and Notre Dame beat BC! Does it get any better than that?

This house was perfect for our trip and truly one of the better rental properties I’ve ever stayed in. Brand new and beautifully designed, extremely clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need for a long weekend. Absolutely will stay again if we are in the area again!

We had a wonderful stay and family reunion at Kevin's home. It was spacious and stylish, with great amenities (pool with basketball hoop, ping pong, screen-in porch, firepit) and excellent proximity to a beautiful beach. We encountered a few issues with the house but Kevin responded with immediacy and resolved them oh-so-fast. Don't miss Black Currant Bakery, Journeyman Distillery (with one of the largest putting greens, Welter's Folly, in the world without a golf course), and Beer Church Brewing Company. The area also abounds in antiques!

Fantastic Experience
Our family had the most wonderful time at Union Pier. Kevin was a great host -- so helpful, responsive, and thoughtful. The house is absolutely stunning. It is incredibly well-equipped and every detail was considered, from the amazing kitchen to bathrooms, and lots of games and pool activities for kids. This is one of the best rental properties I've experienced.

Fantastic trip
We had a wonderful trip with our friends and family. We got away for a birthday and the house was perfect to house everyone. The bunk bed room for the kids was perfect. The adults could hang out downstairs while the kids were upstairs. Kevin was super responsive and very communicative. Thanks again and looking forward to rebooking.

Perfect Group of Families Getaway
The perfect house to host 4 families for a weekend get away in Michigan! We had 8 adults and 13 kids ages 7-14 and used the house as our home base to ski Timber Ridge (45 min away and great for kids to learn) and visit Journeyman, Stray Dog and stroll the wintry beaches of Lake Michigan. The house is modern, clean, well laid out for groups of families, fully equipped with games, cooking, speakers throughout, gathering areas for cards, ping pong, board games, etc.
The kids enjoyed the bunk room equipped with Nintendo Switch and sleep aid noise machines! The screened porch looked idyllic but unfortunately too cold to use (maybe a fireplace or heaters would make this room 4 seasons?) but we enjoyed the pool house for ping pong and additional recreational space away from the house. The pool looks amazing and we can’t wait to visit again in the summer but it fully delivered the perfect winter weekend get away. The house has great trees viewed from most rooms and feels wooded despite being just a few min walk to the beach. We loved it!

Easy Fall Break
We have stayed in numerous VRBO properties, and I would consider this house one of the best places we have rented. The house was very well stocked with basic items. Beds were comfortable. Quality furnishings all around. Bright cheery atmosphere. The pool was heated and perfect despite the mid-October air temps. Short walk to the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Retreat with Friends
We had the best time at this property. Kevin was so easy to communicate with. He went above and beyond to create a beautiful space for his guests. One of the small things was a white noise machine in each room. Super helpful when there are babies sleeping! The property is beautiful! The house is only about a ten minute walk from a beautiful beach. Overall we had the very best time. No complaints at all.
