Tiny cottage
This is a cozy cottage and very comfortable. I wish I would have known the second bedroom only had exterior access. Who is doing the cleaning could pay attention to a little more detail. The refrigerator wasn’t super clean and there were items on the floor next to the sink in the upstairs bathroom. Beautiful view outside and very quiet to sit out and enjoy coffee.

Perfect cabin
We absolutely loved this place. The layout was perfect and separated rooms gave us privacy for both couples. Outside has a nice concrete patio with a fire pit perfect for winding do after a fun filled day. The horse shoe pit and tiki bar was very nice too. We will definitely be back.

Fun property near Silver Lake
The cabin itself is fine for sleeping or a couple people to hang out, but you'll love being outside on this property. Large patio in the front yard with a fire pit and a tiki bar in the back provide ample settings for having a great time. Lots of space out front for friends to bring a tent or RV if they would rather do that instead of sleeping indoors.

Year 10 to the Dunes
We love the location and the set up of this house. Having extra bathrooms was nice too! There were a few things that weren’t super clean downstairs in the bunk room and we were short and on towels and washcloths. BUT when we couldn’t get the downstairs air to work because of the outlet, owners responded right away and sent someone out in the morning to fix it! Love the front porch fire pit area and the table/bar area outback! Plenty of parking too!! Would definitely stay again!!!

Beautiful place near the dunes
We loved our days in this house. The kitchen was well appointed as we cooked a few meals. Getting to the downtown area was very easy. I missed that the downstairs sleeping area was not connected to the main house and so I was surprised by that. It was pointed out in the description though so it was on me for sure. My kids are also plenty old enough to have been perfectly fine and quite enjoying their own space.

We had a wonderful stay here! The owner was very quick to reply to my questions and super helpful. Everything we needed was there! It was nice and close to Silver Lake and in a quiet neighborhood. Bonus was that it has a washer and dryer so that we could go home with clean clothes, especially helpful with young children!

We loved our stay at this cottage near the dunes! We'll need to come back to take advantage of the outside bar area below since we enjoyed the dunes most of the time and then the firepit up top was amazing! We loved the separate entrance for our group (2 couples and a solo), it worked out perfectly! Definitely will be back!

Cute decorations
Nice accommodations. I’d recommend a booklet with info for the place. Be sure to bring your own shampoo and soaps. Thermostat is at floor level on the register under tv. Keybox is under side railing (had to look for a bit :). Really need blinds upstairs especially in bathroom! I’d recommend reading lights in bedroom.
