Please Note:
- This home receives water via a well. Due to the high mineral content in our area, this water smells and tastes different than city water. Though the water is safe to drink, those who are accustomed to city water may wish to bring bottled water for drinking. In the event of a power outage, you will also be without water until the power is restored.
- This home is on a private septic system. To ensure proper function, please flush toilet paper only. Do not flush items such as wipes, feminine products, paper towels, or other materials, as they can cause damage or backups.
- This home is nestled in a beautiful natural setting where wildlife and insects are part of the charm. Routine pest control services are in place to ensure the comfort of our guests, but on occasion, a curious critter may make its way inside, especially if doors are left open. If you notice any evidence of pests indoors, please notify our office promptly so we can address the situation.

    The cabin was perfect and clean. The hot tub was great The company was easy to contact and responded quickly. It was however, inconvenient to have to drive 20 minutes past our rental to the office just to copy my driver's license. The cabin is also about a 5 min walk to the 80 very steep stairs down to the private beach. Be advised if you have any limitations.

    The house was amazing! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone going to this location. Downtown Sauagatuck was about 15 minutes away, but good enough to still go and walk around, but also far enough away to enjoy the camp life, cabin style! The only downfall was the check-in process, you do have to drive into town first to check in at the realtor office and then drive to the house.. so after driving for a few hours, we just wanted to be there and not make more stops! Other than that, our experience was amazing and the staff was GREAT and very Attentive to their customers.

    The property is great, everything we needed. A short walk from the beach and a great place to watch a sunset over lake Michigan. Coming from Wisconsin we have only been able to see sunrises over the lake so this was excellent. The only drawback and it is every so slight, is just the distance from the check in location to the property (15minutes) which normally wouldn't be a problem but after 5 hours we just wanted to get out of the car.
