Sahara Oasis Retreat

Great Experience

Clean, 4 level home with a beautiful master suite, 2 small queen rooms and 1 small twin room, 4 single pull out futons and 4 double pull out futons. It worked for 8 adults and 8 kids with room for 4 more. One double futon had very worn mattress that needed to be replaced. There are 5 bathrooms which was great with our big group. However, one toilet had to be flushed twice. The grill flame regulator didn't work well, so we finished grilling on our own Blackstone grill we had brought. The fridge/freezer was a good size, in addition to a small fridge/freezer in the garage was helpful with our big group. The hot tub turned green and needed maintenance. The a/c quit working one hot night, but started again the next day. The sauna was not working. The small indoor pool, about 6x12 and 31/2 ft deep was a hit with the kids. There are many weeds and overgrown brush, not like the maintained grounds in picure. It needs to be sprayed for mosquitos and weeds. It has a grumpy neighbor who watches and waits to see if you will break any rules like parking past the driveway posts or backing a trailer up the driveway and will come remind you about them. The space and view are lovely with just a 5 minute walk to the beach however, the property needs maintenance and has a grumpy neighbor to be aware of.

This was the perfect location and most beautiful house! We had so much fun using all the amenities and walking to the beach. Thank you so much!

The property was close to lake Mi and silver lake and dunes. Beautiful house lots of room.

Overall fun time, nice house, has just about everything you could ask for. Close to town, can see the sand dunes from the house and lake. Food and main town not far from home. Plenty of space to sit, nice deck, large neat and unique home. Issues: 1. We had ants and fruit flies all throughout the home, specifically the kitchen area. They have ant traps out everywhere, nothing for the fruit flies but it was a pretty big issue in the kitchen. 2. Pool and hot tub had a decent amount of sand in it as well upon arrival.

beautiful home. lots of space. sauna did not work. very relaxing space. plenty of space for our group of 8.

Awesome location and house for our needs. The house was our vacation destination, and it provided easy access to the beach and dunes. Awesome nearby pizza restaurant and coffee shops were frequent stops for us. Would stay again!

10/10

I would be happy to vacation here again! The house was plenty big enough for our 3 families with enough amenities to keep the kids and adults entertained. The kids loved playing in the pool and it was nice that puddle jumpers were there for us to use! The hot tub and sauna were a great way to wind down at night. The kitchen is very large and great for cooking! We enjoyed eating dinner each night on the huge deck overlooking Lake Michigan. The private beach on Lake Michigan was absolutely gorgeous. I was sad when it was time to leave and would love to stay here again!

The beach is beautiful and only a 4-5 minute walk away. You can see and hear the ATVs nearby throughout the day, but it’s only a minor inconvenience. The house is large and has a unique layout. There was ample space for 6 adults and 5 children under the age of 6. Would definitely stay again!
