Private and Inviting
Loved our stay. Home with so many extras like sand toys, beach chairs and inner tubes that made our beach stay so much better. Lake water was really high in algae during our stay but that’s on Mother Nature.

BEST VRBO IN THE UP
We loved staying at the cottage with our family! The house was clean and the set up was perfect; 3 beds in 1 room and a queen bed in the other, plus a dishwasher and washing/dryer was great too. The best part about staying here was the HUGE yard for our kids to run around with a fire pit and 300 feet of beach front! The sand was perfect and swimming was beautiful in crystal clear waters! We can’t wait to come back!

Perfect for a weekend getaway
Perfectly secluded property right on Lake Michigan. House was very clean and welcoming. It’s only about 20 minutes from Escanaba, and 90 minutes from Pictured Rocks. Enjoyed the deck, very quiet and relaxing. Only wish a couple of beach chairs were provided, otherwise beach was very clean and private. Would definitely recommend!

Relaxing long weekend
Had a great Thursday - Monday stay. The home has everything you could need to enjoy a nice weekend away. I enjoyed coffee by the water in the morning and enjoyed sitting in the yard later in the day taking it all in. Enjoyed Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, local bars playing chicken poop bingo, and great food. So many things to see and do within an hour of the home. We loved that we could have our pup with us too!

Bliss
We had a lovely stay. The house was a perfect size for 3 adults and 1 kid. The property is right on the water and the beach is fabulous. We had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful neighbor and her children and enjoyed spending a relaxing evening by the fire with her while the kids played. If you are looking for a place to relax and spend time with your family, I highly recommend this house.

A nice getaway
We booked this property because we wanted a quaint getaway from the city life. It was exactly that and more! The property itself was very clean, well accomodated with most everything we'd need. Waking up and just being able to walk on a beach was such a treat and the area was lovely :) Definitely would stay again, but fair warning if you have tmobile you will highly likely not have signal.

Perfect property with a gorgeous view
The cottage was perfect for us - so cozy, everything new, and was sparkling clean. The property is beautiful - tons of space and steps from the beachfront. Our pup also had a great time - there are many dog-friendly trails not too far away, and lots of space to play outside on the property. If you need to grab groceries or other supplies, Escanaba is an easy 20 minute drive. Amy and her family are so welcoming and willing to help out with anything you need. We can't wait to visit again!

A quiet getaway in the UP
We had amazing lakefront view and access to the beach. Very quiet and relaxing . We brought our 10 mo old yellow lab Lucy and she loved being in the beach. A dip in the lake was a bit challenging due to shoreline algae but our pup didn’t mind it at all. Hopefully you get to meet Albert Einstein, the furry mayor of Sunrise beach, when he takes his morning walk.

Peaceful Cottage
We had a lovely week at this cottage. It was very clean and comfortable for the four of us (2 teens and 2 adults) and we liked being able to bring our dog. It was nice to have a garage for our vehicle. There were a couple neighbors close by but we rarely saw them and the few times we did they were friendly and helpful. The beach was great- nice and sandy. Escanaba was only 20 minutes away which was handy for groceries. There was no Wi-Fi which I actually appreciated as it forced us to disconnect. We’d definitely stay there again!

We had a cool weekend at the home, but it was relaxing and peaceful. The sunrises were amazing over the lake. The home was exactly as pictured. Everything you needed was available. The house was set back on the lake and was very private. A great place to stay. Warmer weather and we would have enjoyed the water. Beautiful beachfront
