Down 15 steps, you will find an expansive, uncrowded beach with a fire pit and Adirondack chairs. Being on both Lake Michigan and Sturgeon Bay has its perks! The water is very clean, with a nice, sandy bottom. You will see two lighthouses from the shore and the freighters sailing by in the distance.

The new kitchen has everything you need: large refrigerator with ice maker, gas stove, microwave, KitchenAid Mixer, Bosch dishwasher, toaster, blender and coffee maker.

Amenities were far above my expectations from previous VRBO rentals. We loved being able to sit on the deck or at the beach to watch the water, make sandcastles and splash. Every part of the home is well thought out for what a family needs - including the dog. I always appreciate reviews that give proximity. Leg's Inn and Tunnel of Trees is less than 15 min away, Mackinaw City is 30 min away, Thorne Swift Nature Preserve is about 30 min away. You can't get any closer to Wilderness State Park without being in the park. Without hesitation, I would stay here again. ##### Catherine M. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacy N. 29 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best Beach on Lake Michigan! Al and Cecilia were great hosts! Great communication and easy check in process. Listing is as described and even better in person. They have done a lovely job updating the home. Kitchen is well stocked for any cooking needs. Why go out when you have the best view! I’ve vacationed to the area since I was a child and this beach is still not known to the masses, some days we were the only ones out there. Definitely listen to the advice in the book if you bring your dog and keeping them leashed, this area is vast wilderness and lots of wildlife to catch their attention. Recommend bringing a long lead with you for beach time so your dog can enjoy swimming and the beach safely. Can’t wait to book with you all again! ##### Stacy N. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara D. 29 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Beach Getaway This place was perfect for our girls’ getaway. We picked it because we stayed at a place down the road a few years ago and we love the location - right on one of the best beaches on Lake Michigan and next to a state park. This place was so much nicer than the one we rented before - the pictures and descriptions really don’t do it justice. Everything is brand new! We ate in a couple of nights and the kitchen was a joy to cook in. There were just three of us, but between the large stove/oven and the Weber grill, you could feed a dozen people easily. There’s a big dining table that seats 10, so we would definitely consider renting it again for a larger family gathering. The highlight is the beach. It’s wide with soft sand. The water is clear. You can hang out on the sand bars or go into to the deeper water. We walked south on the beach for quite a ways without seeing anyone or without coming to the end of the beach. It’s a short walk on the beach to the north to trailheads into the state park, where there are acres of trails to explore. The owners provided very comfortable new Adirondack chairs and a fire pit and wood for night time hangouts on the beach. Sunsets were gorgeous and we saw lots of stars. We even saw the Northern Lights! The beds were very comfortable and it’s a very quiet area, so we all slept well. And there’s a tankless water heater, so we had plenty of hot water for showers. The owners are very gracious and helpful. ##### Barbara D.
