Great family location!

We had a very nice time at this home. It had 2 different gathering spaces/family rooms which was great to spread out. We enjoyed the gymnasium in the winter to provide the kids an opportunity to get some energy out. The home was clean, cozy, had plenty of dishes and towels to accommodate all of us. The gymnasium is attached to the home and connects 2 of the bedrooms and the bunk bed in the common space to the main home. We loved the walking trail that led to a small pond. If traveling in the winter, we’d suggest bringing cozy blankets for the couches, slippers, and warm clothes to wear in the gym. The toys in the gym are in rough condition (broken trike, power wheels that doesn’t work) so we’d suggest bringing some activities for younger kids, but there are basketballs, ping pong balls, a yard dice set and a bowling set that are in good condition. Make sure to bring paper products you may need (paper towel, extra toilet paper, paper plates etc). Suggest bringing enough fire wood for a few indoor fires as the room with the fireplace is chilly with all of the windows. Overall we had a great trip and hope to book here again and we would bring the items listed above!

Family fun!

This house has a lot of amenities for the family to enjoy. Our family reunion consisted of kids of all ages, and the enjoyment had in the pool or in the gym was endless. Three Oaks is a cute, little town. Close to the beach and excellent dining.

Wonderful Family Gathering

We are a large group of extended family of all ages that enjoy getting together yearly to spend time together, sightsee n chillax. This is the place to do this! Communication with host was quick and the house was comfortable. The pool and hot tub were enjoyed by all in the evening since it was very warm during day We visited many wineries, breweries and the Lake Michigan coastline- beautiful! Restaurants we went to all delicious- want to mention a few: we ate breakfast few minutes away at Three Oaks Eatery- very delicious! And recommend Beer Church- old church renovated into a restaurant/brewery. Of course a visit to Journey man distillery is a must- old renovated corset factory- the whiskey n gin drinkers in our group enjoyed this stop. Overall a positive experience!

Large, fun house for big group

We had an excellent stay here with our extended family. The house was large enough to allow for several different activities to be going on at once, and several spaces for large groups to gather and hang out--just what you need with 20+ people. We used all areas, but the gym was a particular favorite of the kids and the sauna was for the adults. Shared bathrooms require some creativity and flexibility, as there are none in the bunkhouse off the gym, and we had lots of people getting ready for a wedding. Valerie and Jacson were excellent hosts, always responding quickly to questions and communicating with us well when the A/C broke. We will remember the Hideaway the next time we stay all together in SW Michigan. Thank you for a great weekend!

Great Family Getaway

Took kids and Grandkids to celebrate my wife's Birthday and we had a great time. As tar as the home I would rate it as follows. Hopefully helpful Backyard/Pool/Sauna- 9.5. We had a bbq for my wife's Bday and invited additional family and friends. The heated pool, sauna and jacuzzi were all incredible!! The only thing that was not perfect was that the furniture under the gazebo was a little dirty. Besides that it was absolutely perfect. Gym - This was a huge hit for all ages, Basketball/Ping Pong/Toys for kids were all a big hit. Kids stuff was a little older/donated which I actually liked because I did not have to stress over kids possibly breaking a toy. Family Room/Kitchen - Great 9.0. Big family room gave us plenty of space to all get together. Kitchen had just about anything we needed. Only thing missing was Keurig which we brought with us. Bedrooms/Bathrooms - 7.5 This was probably the only thing that was in any way a negative. The bathrooms could use a little updating. Plenty of sleeping space but not much room in Bedrooms otherwise. The bathrooms worked out fine for us with 13 people but if you have the maximum of 22 people it may be a little tight. Also the bunkhouse area does not have its own bathroom which may be an issue for older/younger guest who have to go in the middle of the night. All in All it was an incredible time and we made incredible family memories I would highly recommend

Great home, just needs some updating

This house has great amenities, but needs a ton of updating. Bathrooms are in need of maintenance. Kitchen stove is very outdated. Sauna did not heat up past 100 degrees with 5 hours of warming time. Hot tub is fantastic! While the host is wonderfully responsive, there was no home binder to convey any amenity usage information. We struggled to figure out the hot tub/sauna and location of pool towels. Needed to contact her repeatedly during our stay. Basketball court/game room is fabulous!!!! Community areas are spacious and TVs were great! One of the four bathrooms is in an out building (the sauna). For 22 guests, this would have been a problem. Overall, good. Just needs some attention to detail.

We were 5 families (20 folks) staying over the weekend and we had a fabulous time. Place was well stocked and while we didn't use the additional fridge, it was a nice addition. We used the pool and sauna, and spent a lot of time in the gym/half-basketball court. We also visited Warren Dunes which was a short drive from the property. We will surely rent this place again if we are visiting the area.

Many plusses but …

Property was nicely furnished, with plenty of plush towels, a well-equipped and thoughtfully stocked kitchen, good wifi, and an impressively large screen tv. Pool was smallish but clean and warm. Owner was very communicative and helpful when a storm caused an overnight power outage. Stained mattresses were an unwelcome surprise that marred an otherwise comfortable stay in a newly listed property.
