    Great location. The cottage was great for our short weekend stay. We loved the fire pit in the backyard and that our dog could join us this year. My husband was upset that the Yuke only had three strings, but he tuned it for you. Loved the music theme throughout, many thoughtful special touches.

    Our stay at Camp Wanderlust was wonderful. The home was very family friendly and had lots of things avaliable that made traveling with children very easy. The beds were comfortable and the home was stocked with all the items you need for day-to-day living.

    It’s in a great location! You can walk to so many things around town. Plus you’re a quick drive from a national park or a number of other small beach towns. Everyone was very nice and dog friendly! The VRBO owners were very kind and accommodating. The house was comfortable and clean! Highly recommend.

    We really enjoyed our stay here and found this home to be very cozy. It was very important to us that it was pet friendly and nice to have so many things that were available for all family members to enjoy while staying there. The backyard is very private with nice sitting areas and a fire pit. The location was also wonderful with being close to the local beach and within driving distance to many shops, restaurants and local places to check out.

    This was our 6th stay at Camp Wanderlust and it continues to be one of my favorite getaways of all time. It's the perfect property for a group of friends or family. It's spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything you could possibly need for cooking and for fun. We especially loved the wood burning stove on a cold winter night. The location is perfect with easy access to New Buffalo, Union Pier, and other SW Michigan towns. We especially love that it's an easy walk to wine tasting! Communication with the hosts was easy and they made check-in a breeze. We're already looking at the calendar to return this fall!

    Camp Wanderlust was perfect for our stay. Loved that it was right off the highway. Made it easy to get to various places. Really liked that the bedrooms and family room are on opposite sides of the house. Plenty of room for five adults and our dogs. The house has everything we could possibly need. We enjoyed our stay.

    We enjoyed the home and walkability to the cute town of Union Pier. We ate donuts from Black Currant Bakery, enjoyed BBQ at Red Arrow, and visited Round Barn and Tabor Hill in Baroda, finishing with a tour and dinner at the Journeyman Distillery. It was a wonderful weekend.

    This is our fifth visit to Camp Wanderlust - we come from Grand Rapids and meet friends from Chicago so it is the perfect meeting place! We loved using the kitchen and amenities to make our meals and always feel welcome to use the space like our own. It feels like to us and our dogs who join us. Keith and Debbie are great hosts and provide information on the area as well as entertainment such as books and DVDs. This weekend was too warm for the wood stove so we enjoyed the nearby beaches and sat on their comfortable patio. We look forward to coming again this winter for a cozy weekend!

    We had a great time. Thank you to the property owner for letting us use their games and water toys. The house is a cute updated house with lots of extras for both kids and adults. We didn’t get to use the yard because of rain, but it’s a really nice yard. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again. We only had trouble with the door because of user error, it’s simple when you get the hang of it.

    Our family had a great stay at Wanderlust cottage. The house had everything we needed and the hosts provided a welcoming and warm environment. There was plenty of room for playing board games and we loved the fire pit and outdoor seating. The kitchen had everything we needed, although we did not cook much because of all the great restaurants in the area. Thanks for making our end of the summer get away so enjoyable!
