We absolutely loved staying at this well-equipped, gorgeous Union Pier home with our family. It had everything we needed and more. It never felt stuffy and was so spacious with so much room for everyone to do their own thing. The large kitchen was great for entertaining. Private beach was perfect and very close to the new-ish bike trail to get into town. Would 100% recommend!!! Looking forward to staying here again.

We had an excellent stay--2 adults and 2 teens. Great location with a short walk to private Lake Michigan access--the beach and lake were great and never too crowded. House had all of the amenities that we needed, including beach gear (wagon, chairs, umbrella, towels, etc.), gas grill, and full kitchen. Between swims and family games, the extra gaming room was great for our oldest. Easy access by foot or short drive to restaurants, stores, and hiking, including to New Buffalo. Timothy's restaurant and Seedz Brewery were a couple of our favorites, both short walks.

This home offers everything you need. The kitchen is well-equipped; the bedrooms and baths are comfortable; the fire pit is great; and the overall feeling is one of relaxation and togetherness. The decor is charming. I can't recommend this property enough. It was wonderful.

This house was the perfect place for our family vacation. Clean. Comfortable. Very well appointed. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Spacious rooms. Upgraded bathrooms. Just wonderful. Great location in Union Pier, and walking distance to the beach (a 10 min walk plus some stairs). The owners have beach umbrella, chairs, etc for your use. Would highly recommend!
