4th of July Week Available. Amazing Lake Michigan Waterfront Custom Home + VIEWS

Property featured as the cover image of White Lake area Visitor Guide 2023.

Welcome to Beachin View Villa! Perfectly situated directly on a 4+ acre Lake Michigan frontage lot. This three bedroom home has 183 feet of Private sandy beach. The amazing views are some of the most unique you'll ever see as this extensively custom engineered home is literally built at the peak of one of the highest dunes in the area. With an elevation approaching 100 feet, and virtually no trees to obstruct your view, you can see for greater than 10 miles and nearly 180 degrees of blue Lake Michigan waters without even stepping outside. No need to lower the window treatments and block out the breathtaking views of this extremely private location as it is located in the exclusive, safe and gated North Gray Dunes Association. Catch a glimpse of shipping freighters as they pass by in the distance while enjoying a cup of coffee, espresso, cappuccino or cafe' latte (coffee maker, espresso machine and coffee bean grinder supplied). Watch your children as they play on the beach below or play on the private swing set just steps away from the water's edge.
Enjoy a competitive game of sand volleyball on the extensive soft, sandy beachfront. Play a bit of catch with a baseball and glove or toss a frisbee with family members while barefoot on the beach. Walk for miles along the beach while framed by a beautiful picturesque Lake Michigan backdrop. Enjoy a peaceful paddle along the shoreline in the two supplied kayaks. Turn a keen eye to the sky and the tree tops, and you just may spot one of the local American Bald Eagles searching the waters for food to feed their young. Recall simpler days as you reconnect with family members over a board game in the luxurious, view filled, four season room. Pitch a tent up on the beach for the kids to enjoy an evening at a private lakeside campsite. Relax with a glass of wine as you witness some of the most amazing sunsets you'll ever see. Enjoy smores cooked over the fire pit, or observe planets and other views of the universe through the provided electronic drive and computer controlled Meade telescope with some of the darkest skies Michigan has to offer. This is the perfect private beach retreat. The ultimate peaceful seclusion of a truly private beach retreat with full access to connect with loved ones or work via the new Fiber Optic 1000 mb/sec ultrafast internet added September 2021.

Winter getaway
We wanted a quick getaway with snow and sledding. We had no idea how beautiful frozen sunsets over Lake Michigan could be, even though we are from Indianapolos. It was magical.

The view was amazing. We were amazed with how clean the property was. The only bad thing was the smell when you walked in it was awful did get with the home owners right away and they explained it. We thought maybe a dead mouse or something.

Amazing views and seclusion
If you love nature, seclusion and fantastic views of Lake Michigan, then you will love this house/property! Also, we have rented a lot of VRBOs over the years and typically you’re left with like 2 trash bags, one extra roll of TP, and no other house keeping amenities. These hosts have it all for your stay, which is enormously appreciated and goes a long way IMO. We will definitely be back! Only thing I would note is that the walkway is steeper than it appears in pics and could be an issue for the elderly. Thanks for sharing your amazing home!

Amazing view!
We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was fully stocked with everything we could possibly want. The view is stunning and worth the hike up the mountain. The walkway was a bit slippery on a frosty morning, but we used the provided "trax" (spiked covers for shoes) and they worked great. The host was having a fridge issue during our stay, but they made sure we had a working fridge and offered clear communications about when we could expect a repair person to arrive.

Beautiful home. Everything we needed for a wonderful family vacation. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. No crowds, friendly neighbors and dog friendly beach. Close to town so we could pop over to the grocery store for supplies. Loved sitting on the top deck for dinners and watching the sunsets. Our kids kept saying this was the best vacation ever!

What a wonderful property! It was clean and very well appointed. The views and beach were spectacular. Our hosts were superb and supplied water and battery charges when the power went out due to an extremely strong storm that affected the entire coast. The communication with our hosts was very responsive. We had a lovely family vacation and would love to plan another stay

We had a great stay at this house. It was well equipped and had everything we needed. Love the beach supplies as well. The walk up the boardwalk to the house is a little steep, but the provided electric cart helps a lot with groceries and luggage. There. Are many steps down To the beach however, ! You are rewarded with a Beautiful soft sandy private beach and the Crystal clear lake Michigan! We walked several miles every morning down the beach in both directions.. Can’t wait to stay at this house again.

Fantastic Home and View of Lake Michigan!!
7 family members and I rented this beautiful home on a high bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. The check in and check out process was seamless. The home was spotless. We used the kayaks and bicycles that the owners made available to guests (the Hart-Montague bike/pedestrian path, about 5 miles away, is one of the best we have ever been on) and spent many evenings on the two decks overlooking the water. The home is remotely situated in a wooded HOA but Whitehall and Montague were a short drive away and we spent time in these towns (and other neighboring towns). Peaceful bliss was this home. Pat C.
