Third Coast was great to work with. Very friendly and helpful. We had a quick question on the house and they actually walked over within minutes of the call. I guess the office is right around the block!

The place was so nice to stay in. I think we were the very first guests after the owners finished furnishing the place. Everything, and I mean, everything was brand new for us. Nice and bright house with plenty of space for everyone. We enjoyed being so close to the beach and downtown. We could walk to the grocery store, beach, etc. Our little kids enjoyed playing in the back and having the yard fenced in, we didn't have to worry.

The rental agency was great to work with. They let us know this home was new to their inventory and wanted to make sure we were adequately provided (informed) about our stay. We didn't need them during the stay but was good to know they were local.

Pier Bliss was great and well stocked. Owners did great on the small touches around the house which made us feel well taken care of. Not sure if the owners or agency did this but they left a welcome bag with wine, drinks, snacks, etc. Back yard is great and hot tub was crystal clear. Having the screen porch and large back yard was great for the kids. Being close to the beach and being able to walk to Black Currant for breakfast snacks and coffee was great. We caught a nice warm, sunny spring weekend to experience out here. Really enjoyed the house and the area.

Third Coast was a pleasure to work with. They just recently took on the management of the house from the owners and were very cognizant of making sure we had all the info, etc, for our stay. Very nice gift bag left for us also.

The house was great for our needs. Walkable to downtown (one or two streets off of Whittaker) and grabbing something quick from Barneys. It's on a quiet side street and perfect for us. We got lucky on a great weekend for April and the town was coming back to life. Nancy's just opened back up for the summer and a bustling marina putting the boats back in the water. Glad to have the feel of winter off our backs. We are coming back for the summer time! See you soon!

We enjoyed the home. So close to downtown. We walked for coffee in the mornings and excursions to the grocery store and shops too. We were so close to Bentwood Tavern....but it's closed for renovations. One of our favorite spots to eat. Well cared for home. We will be back!

The rental team was great to work with. The heating system is older and we had questions. They came over right away and showed us how to use it. They stopped by Saturday morning with cinnamon sticky buns and small stuffed animals for the kids to make sure all was well. Very thougthful

Great house, great location. We stayed on a rather cold blustery weekend. We didn't get a chance to use the firepit, bocceball court or even the beach of Lake Michigan. Will have to come back for it.

We hope to make Blue Tranquility our annual family dinner getaway! Blue Tranquility is a beautiful, new home with everything our large family needed for cooking, dining, and relaxing. The very clean hot tub was used every night. We loved being close (1 mile) to the downtown action but able to enjoy the peace and quiet away from it

the rental agency was great to work with. We were the first to stay in this new home and they gave us a gift card when we arrived (along with wine, drinks and snacks) as incentive to stay and provide feedback on the new home. Plenty of info about the property, communication prior to arrival and during was great and let us stay late on Sunday to enjoy the afternoon. Since we mentiioned we were coming with kids, they had a stuffed teddy bear and shark with Third coast branding on them. Kids were impressed.

Our commentary on the property - it was a great experience. The home is well furnished, clean, bright and airy. It was a rather windy / cold weekend so we didn't use many items of the exterior which I would imagine being a large perk for the summer. There is a screened in porch / 3 season room, a nice wood firepit outside with ample seating around it, and a bocce ball court also. The listing mentioned hammock but, once again, in March, these items were not utilized.
Updated bathrooms and comfortable beds were great for our stay, we didn't use the kitchen for really cooking but seems well stocked and adequate for meal prep. You are very close to McKinley Beach and and can walk to downtown Union Pier to grab something from Milda's or Black Currant. We come to the area often and nice to find a new location for us to stay. Our kids enjoyed the time and the openness of the pathway / general area of Paradise Villa's and makes for a play area for them. Would we come back? Yes, and very much want to do so when the exterior perks of the home can be really used.

the house was great for our needs. Being so close to the private beach was nice - 3 houses away from the access point. The beach is a bit rocky but once you get a bit into the lake it was shallow and sandy. Kids loved it. They also enjoyed exploring the small creek which feeds into the lake.

Great house. We know it's a new build. The neighborhood is new (nice area close to downtown) but it is on a cul de sac which was great for kids to ride around knowing hardly any traffic. Well stocked and furnished. They even had little signs in each room with wifi, handy info, and the comfort level of each bed. How often you see that?

The farm was great. There is so much space to explore at the property. The kids had a great time. Between the creek which runs through the property and all the other spaces and land, the kids were non stop exploring. Nice pool and was able to sit inside on the couch (and in air conditioning) and watch the kids in the pool which is always a plus. We are considering coming back again if schedules allow

There are 5 TV's in the garage. Talk about your game and sports room. They have 3 grills, two jacuzzis and a sauna also.
We took advantage of the "whole" house.

Wow, what a kitchen. I was told the home recently went through renovations and it really is spacious and open. The kitchen is huge. Literally huge island and plenty of space for a good chef to get in there and do their work. They also have one unused space which I see some people use for exercise - my guess would be yoga. Great space and walkable to Cherry Beach.
