Forested Pentwater Vacation Rental - Walk to Beach

Reviews

• Dreamy

  5/5

  Part of me wants to keep this place a secret, so I can go every year.

  We had a magical vacation. Didn't wear shoes for 7 days, long beach walks, enjoyed swimming and fires at night in the house.

  Had a few minor issues which the hosts fixed.

  The only thing I would ask is to oay a bit more attention to cleaning the house and the decks. Otherwise everything was excellent.

• Lovely beachfront home!

  5/5

  The outstanding feature of this home is the number of decks, which make it possible to enjoy the views of the lake, the forest, in rain (very spacious screened in porch), or shine (to view the beautiful sunsets).The beach is one of the move beautiful I have seen--sugary sand; crystal clear sparkling blue water and miles to walk! The home is spacious, comfortable and well appointed. The only drawback for us (both elders) was the number of steps from the parking area up to the house. I am used to steps to the beach, but not for unloading all the necessities for the week! Be aware--or take the younguns' for hauling!

• Great Lake View

  4/5

  House was very nice as well as neighborhood.

  Pros:

  - Enjoyed upstairs screened in porch for experiencing the outdoors without the rain or bugs.

  - Nice view of the lake

  - Very spacious interior to lounge

  - Kitchen was stocked well with utensils for easy food prep.

  Cons:

  - No response from our rental property representative when called with a problem we faced during our stay.

  - Driveway / bottom step of property stairs was not level and extremely hazardous - no warning signs posted of this by property owners. While listing does indicate there are stairs required to enter property, the uneven slope at the bottom is something that renters should be made aware of.

  - Only one TV in house and was located on second level. no TVs in any of the bedrooms.(It mostly rained during our stay so more than one TV would have been nice)

  Manager's Response:

  Owner's response: "Mary, we want all of our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we're sorry that you experienced some issues during your trip.
  - Thank you for your positive comments, we are glad you enjoyed the neighborhood, the screened-in porch, the spaciousness, the well-stocked kitchen, and the views of the lake.
  - The stairs from the house to the sloped parking area transition from wood to concrete and the last wood step is level as is the concrete step before the sloped parking area. We're sorry for any difficulty you may have experienced, as you mentioned we do have verbiage in the listing to let guests know about the required stairs.
  
  We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays! We will continue to deliver those 5-star experiences we are known for."
