The Lake Michigan views are exceptional. This little cabin is rustic, so if you're looking for an updated modern chic decor and amenities, you should stay in a newer condo but you won't enjoy the beautiful Lake Michigan experience that this little cabin offers. ##### Mary R.

Just across the street from the beautiful Pere Marquette Park/Beach (Lk Mi) we all loved the convenience to be able to easily walk back and take a break from the sun/sand/water mid-day. Very quiet surrounded by other nice, friendly rentals as well so as a single mom traveling I felt safe. The cabin itself was much nicer and more affordable than a hotel room, we had plenty of space to spread out and relax, I enjoyed morning coffee on the screened front porch as well as the back deck, evening bonfire was fun as well. The cabin has plenty of supplies to make the stay smooth and easy. And there is plenty to do close by.... Definitely check out The Deck bar/restaurant -excellent food, fun atmosphere with beach games, and live music. Dockside Donuts was a big hit (just a short drive into town) The Lavender Latte was delicious and donuts were so fresh fun flavors! Lombardo's pizza was another spot we tried..don't skip the Dill Pickle Pizza....AMAZING! All of us had a wonderful time! Memories were made and we are excited to return/stay again! ##### Nicole J.

The location was perfect! It was so nice to have the beach only a few steps away. The owner was good to do business with. She answered emails in a timely fashion and seemed friendly. The cottage is old (which we knew when renting). I wish it was cleaned better. A deep cleaning once a month is necessary. Light fixtures, upper shelves, top of fridge and ceiling fans should be cleaned. The shower curtain was cloth without a liner. The curtain was stained and looked quite dirty. The wall next to the toilet had what looked like urine splattered on it. (Boys!). This sort of detail to cleaning is necessary when renting a home out. The wifi shut off half way through our stay. Thus, the TV would not work either. One might say "who cares, you're on the beach!" I would agree except for at night time when my husband has insomnia and can't sleep. He depends on TV to keep him company. The furniture and beds are old and not comfortable. One of the rocking chairs has the seat bottom broken out and a piece of vinyl siding there for support. I know this because I'm a little chubby and heard a little 'crack' when I sat down. The oven and stove were dirty. Luckily, I didn't need to cook while there. Overall, it was ok. My suggestion is to upgrade a bit, keep it cleaner and provide more shower towels. You probably could charge a little more if you did these things. ##### Hannah M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marilyn B., Fort Atkinson 14 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location and clean We had a wonderful time at the Beachwood-Bluffton cottage.
