Baldwin: soggiorni in alloggi sulla spiaggia

The log cabin was fabulous. It was perfectly appointed and, even though not quite warm enough outside just yet, Bar Lake made all stress subside.

Great place to stay, highly recommend! Have everything you could possibly need, super clean and host is very responsive and very nice. We will be back next hunting season!

It’s an amazing place to stay, and great cabin with beautiful view, extremely relaxing, was an amazing host even left us cookies!!

We loved this quaint cabin! It’s off the beaten path and feels very secluded, yet it’s close to everything! The stairs to the beach are worth the trip if you’re physically able. The heaters work well to keep you warm at night. And the fireplace is fabulous! Comfy, cozy, clean and beautiful views! Thanks for having us!

My husband and I loved this AirBnb. We watched the most beautiful sunset on kayaks and ate breakfast with lake Portage as our view. There was a really great nature trail within walking distance of the place too where you could take your dog for a walk.

This was our 2nd time staying at Chris’s place. It really IS perfect. We like to relax and spend time with family and friends in this space. The kitchen was stocked and we found it easy to Prepare meals. The appliances were up to date. The sleeping arrangements were comfortable. The bathrooms were clean.

It was our 2nd time staying here and would do so again. Only negative was running out of propane in the BBQ the last night, but we were able to cook dinner without it. The location is great and works well with our larger group.

We stayed during the "off" season so lots of activities, shops and places to eat were closed. We didn't mind too much because we were looking for a relaxing and peaceful stay. It has to be amazing during the warmer months when you can take advantage of being outside and in the water. Since the house is right on the lake, we had beautiful views. I was lucky enough to catch an amazing sunrise. "The Sandlot" was exactly what you think of when you think family lakehouse. Rustic, cozy and charming. It felt very homey. The house was one of the cleanest places we've ever stayed. The only issue we had were so many trips up and down the stairs. If you have any mobility issues like me, (bad knee) then you must be careful on the stairs. They can be kind of slippery in socks.

Cheryl’s home was great for our family with young grandchildren. The sand provided hours of building and pretending fun. The sandy beach and shallow water depth was perfect for all the children from 2-8. They really loved jumping off the dock. The kayaks and paddle boats gave us time on the water. The large level grassy backyard was excellent for softball and tag. The bunk room was great for the grandkids to sleep together, leaving 4 bedrooms for adults. There was a pack n Play and a high chair for the youngest. There were many toys and games to play. The house hade cute decore with special touches to welcome us everywhere. We also appreciated the washer and dryer. The leather sectional was cozy for all of us. We also loved the fire pit for s’mores in the evening. We would like to have had more beach seating. The last two plastic Adirondack chairs were fatally cracked. I’m sure those are on Cheryl’s list to replace soon. Thank you for sharing your home with us Cheryl.

Great place to stay. Close to the beach and downtown. We went in the off season so the crowd was light. The place is clean, inviting, and has all the amenities you would need. We didn’t use the pool or hot tub so I can’t speak on that but they seemed nice. Troy was responsive to all of my questions, great host.

Melissa was super responsive. This home was the perfect place for our active family and bc it had very few stairs we were able to bring my 87 y.o. Mom along for the trip! We rented their boat, borrowed golf clubs, golf cart, volleyball, marshmallow sticks etc. They had everything! Even an outdoor shower - so fun!

We had a wonderful peaceful stay. The location was great and having a private beach area was amazing. The lack was a bit mucky right by the dock. We took advantage of the amenities the resort offered.

The home was absolutely beautiful as were the views of the lake from the covered porch. My family stayed there for our summer vacation and loved our stay. Between the lake, pool, rec room games and other amenities we felt right at home and never felt like we had to leave the property. We would definitely look to stay again in the future.

Fantastic home in a beautiful quiet neighborhood. Lots of amenities. The hot tub was amazing! The view to the lake was beautiful. Lots of thoughtful details, like plentiful towels. Nicole was a great host. Would love to return in summer or fall to fully experience the natural beauty of Michigan and make use of more of the amenities.

Place was exactly what we needed, 3 of us slept comfortably and everything was in order. Nola was very helpful and kind.

We had a wonderful stay! The house is clean, right on the water and in a good location that’s close to the restaurants and stores.

We immediately felt at home with the cozy and welcoming decor. The personal touches made it feel more like a family cottage than a rental which was a major plus! The kitchen had everything we needed - including condiments, baking items and spices. We cooked most of our meals at the cottage so we could maximize our beach time and watch every sunset. The grill was so clean we figured it was brand new. The cottage was clean and had lots of extra towels, pillows, linens and other essentials. Our only regret is that we didn’t book another week!

Very nice place close to the water!

We stayed for a month, whilst settling in our daughter into her senior year at college. Great view, very quiet and the kayaking, swimming and fishing were superb. A great experience not too far from Grand Rapids, if we come back to the area, we would certainly stay again. The quiz at the local Tavern on Monday's was fun, as was the Flea Market on Thursday mornings.

Our family of five loved our stay! The house was exactly as described and sat on a beautiful lake. We were close to Crystal ski resort and close to Lake Michigan so we were able to ski and walk the beach. We were also close to Frankfurt and enjoyed our trips into town for coffee and dinner. What stood out the most was Chris’s responsiveness and willingness to accommodate our change in dates. We had a great week and would love to be back for a summer visit.

Elizabeth was a great host with a beautiful property. She was extremely communicative and helpful, the porch and views were amazing. Be prepared for a lot of steps down to the beach, but definitely worth it for the soft sand clean water and private beach.

Richard’s cottage is the perfect spot for a lakeside weekend getaway.

Lynn was an amazing host. I had told her I was in the area for a baseball tournament when I booked the stay. When I arrived there was a personal note on a white board wishing us luck this weekend. Extremely beautiful home with a spectacular view. I brought my fishing kayak and fished both Friday and Saturday evenings. Relaxed and caught a few fish as well. Overall, I couldn’t have found a better place to stay. Loved it. Hopefully I will be back out there again but in the summer to enjoy the lake even more. Thanks Lynn! ☀️🐟🏡

We had a great second trip to Creed’s place on Duck Lake! The setting and amenities brought us back—the kids loved the kayaks, paddle boards, and little private beach. With state park across the lake, the mornings on the dock are pure peaceful bliss. The Lake Michigan beach shore is minutes away by car and even reachable by paddle, which is very unique! Creed is a great host, greeting us with a warm welcome and helping to get the family’s gear down to the cabin with a motorized trolley. The place was clean and charming. We definitely recommend this gem and will be back for a third visit!
