GENERAL
Wonderful, relaxing, tranquil paradise. It features unobstructed, breathtaking views of Lake Michigan through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. Carefully fully stocked to provide all amenities to make your stay as easy and relaxing as possible.
The master bedroom awakens to the warmth of Eastern and Southern exposure, perfect for watching majestic colorful sunrises over Lake Michigan while you snuggle in bed.
As you rise to greet the new day and gather in the comfort of the spacious living and dining area, sunlight dancing on the waves seems to draw you through the sliding glass doors out onto your deck, then into the lake.
The open plan living space truly inspires togetherness and creates lasting, happy memories for all to share.
High speed Spectrum wireless Internet keep you in touch with the real world . . . if you really want to.

Drift off to sleep listening to the sound of waves crashing against the shoreline . . .
While you can enjoy the convenience of a having your own modern kitchen, if you want to leave the cooking to the pros, both fine and casual dining are available nearby in Sheboygan and Kohler and a good local restaurant "Judi's'" in town. Judi's is not open in the evenings so hurry in for breakfast and lunch 7 days a week. The Kohler American Club 5 diamond resort restaurants and Blackwolf Run provide unique atmosphere outstanding food and great views. In Sheboygan, make reservations early for a fabulous authentic gourmet Italian meal at upscale Trattoria Stefano. Further north the dining at world famous Whistling Straits golf course is exceptional, in a gorgeous setting and about 20 minutes away.

Mosquito Squad protects you from those pests and ticks this year!
The home has 3 bedrooms (sleeps 6) and two full bathrooms (showers only). It features a rustic knotty pine interior, ceramic tile floors and ceiling fans throughout.
The master bedroom faces the lake and has a king bed and flat screen TV. The second bedroom, with a queen bed, is located on the North side and has a nice view of the lake through the trees. The third bedroom has two twin beds and a new TV (2025) and view of the backyard and woods. Luxurious touches throughout.
Full A/C combination wall heater is now installed for your comfort with dehumidifier.
Most folks are very comfortable and open the windows at night and close them around noon if it warms up. I have ceiling fans and usually a cool lake breeze keeps guests comfortable.
There is also direct beach access about 10 houses down to put in Kayaks, canoes and Paddle boards at the end of Foster AA public access.
It is a one level ranch house with few stairs. There are 8 stairs as you walk up to the house from the driveway. There are 3 uneven stairs with railing from the parking area to the walk. Then 5 concrete stairs with a railing from the walkway to the backdoor main entry.
Continuous improvements made since the renovation have only enhanced its appeal as a cozy retreat in any weather in any season. The bedding, linens and furniture have been replaced so they are fresh and new. First time visitors to the area are impressed.
One of the more subtle distinguishing desirable features of this home is that it is located on a tranquil lane. This becomes important for those seeking quiet relaxation. Other Lake front properties are located on smaller narrow lots, have numerous visitors as the ownership may be split between hosts of relatives and guests. Some Lake front houses will have 20 people visiting on a holiday weekend. If you are not familiar with the area it can be disruptive if you select the wrong property that is not suited to your needs.
This home offers the best accommodations for serenity, tranquility and quality time with guests. It may be the closest home to the water's edge, providing easy access for enjoying the lake with family and friends.
Some homes for rent have quite a walk to the water's edge from which also has advantages but can be problematic if watching children or dining near the water.
Many guests return every year so don't wait 'til it's too late.
Come visit the Best Lake House now, eh!
It is difficult to predict the Lake level each year. I hope it will return to normal for the season but have no control over nature's whims. The Army Corps of Engineers tracks and predicts the Lake Michigan level. Their website suggests that the beach will continue to remain walkable and will increase.
In the meantime, if you bring a kayak or paddle board it will enhance your stay. I am unable to provide these items due to insurance restrictions.
Other details: I now have Mosquito Squad providing control to fight those pests and ticks!
Our home is fully licensed by the Town of Holland and Inspected and licensed by the County of Sheboygan. I pay rental taxes through VRBO for Wisconsin sales tax.
I must advise that the "The rocks in front of the house are dangerous if you try to enter the Lake, they are slippery and can be covered in algae." Also the rocks were recently installed and are still settling so they can be unstable.
FALL-WINTER
Fall is a wonderful time to stay and enjoy the change of seasons.
Winter is stunning with the dramatic beauty of the lake, sparkling ice and snow.
Fall always brings a stunning collage of foliage color to the area and hiking our three beautiful state parks are a lovely way to take it all in. Kohler-Andre, Harrington Beach, and Kettle Moraine State Parks are all conveniently located.
Winter is stunning with the dramatic beauty of the lake, sparkling ice and snow.
In the winter, you can hike, cross-country ski or mountain bike. A snowboard park is close by for additional snow fun. It claims the largest snow tubing park in the country, Sunburst Ski Park.
WSJ article 9-16-2022
"A home near the water can provide more than just recreation and nice views. Water is also said to have healing powers and the ability to reduce anxiety, ease mental fatigue and rejuvenate weary bodies."
Costs
Some interested renters wonder why the rates may seem expensive. Part of the cost of the lake front homes is the real estate taxes. The taxes are used to maintain the lovely Village of Oostburg and the schools. The average cost for annual real estate taxes can approach $10,000 per year depending on the location. Attentive upgrades and thorough cleaning increases operating costs, but permits the nicest furnishings available.
(Note, reservations marked "Tentative" means that the dates may still be available. A signed paid for contract secures the dates and then they are marked "reserved." "Blocked" indicates planned upgrades or construction to the home that are scheduled but sometimes can be adjusted.) Contact me if you need flexibility in selecting dates. If I am able I can adjust times for your stay.

Summary: She has a beautiful location, nice cozy cabin. All the extra stuff you might need and we did a little laundry.
Annette R. Jul 31, 2024 05:05:59 AM
Summary: We spent a wonderful week at this most beautiful home on the Western Shore of Lake Michigan.The beautiful sunrises shone on this clean, nicely decorated, warm and welcoming home. The views on the lake are breathtaking. The host was super friendly, gracious and easy to work with....we were offered early arrival and late check out. A paradise on the shores of Lake Michigan. We couldn't ask for more! Thank you Megan
Jason & Kate B. Jul 11, 2024 05:33:34 AM
Summary: Great house and great location - it would be hard to get much closer to the water and the views were incredible. The house has everything you need - the owner has anticipated every possible need and was very communicative about not only the property but area activities and things to do. The location is a great jumping off point for area attractions, including state parks and the surrounding small communities. Also Sheyboygan is 10 minutes north and Milwaukee is 40 minutes south so both great places to take advantage of.
Brandon C. Sep 5, 2023 11:48:46 PM
Summary: A very cozy & peaceful setting. Beautiful view of Lake Michigan. We spent a lot of time on the deck relaxing & playing games. Located 1 hour or less south of Green Bay & north of Milwaukee. Sheboygan is a gorgeous town 15 minutes north. A little bit of clutter in an older property, but nothing that takes away from the stay. Overall a really good time & super private.
Sandra Z. Aug 18, 2023 05:00:19 AM
Summary: We had a wonderful stay in a wonderful house - thank you very much!
Lori S. Jul 23, 2023 11:22:05 PM
Summary: This property lives up to its VRBO title of best lake house on lake Michigan. The enormous picture windows allow for breathtaking views from nearly every spot in the house. You can watch that blue/green lake water roll and crash against the rocks while you're watching TV, cooking, enjoying a meal or just standing there dumbfounded by how close you are to that beautiful, ever-changing body of water. The owner is also wonderful to work with. She communicated regularly and was thoughtful enough to stock the home with so many things a renter would need. She truly made it feel like a home away from home, so much so, it was very difficult to leave! The deck outside is also amazing with plenty of comfortable seating for at least 4 adults and if you are brave enough to want to take a swim in the chilly lake Michigan water, there is a ladder that allows easy access to it. The only sounds you'll hear while you're out there are birdsong, crashing waves, and an occasional motor boat--incredibly peaceful. The home is clean, cozy, and Megan left very clear instructions on how to use the TV, the Roku, the washer/dryer, etc. The location of the house makes it seem as if you are miles away from everything, but in reality, you're just a short drive away from the very pretty, exceptionally clean little town of Oostburg and Sheboygan and Elkhart Lake are only about 20 minutes down the road as well. Our only complaint was that we had to go home after just one week! We cannot wait to return!
Andria L. Jul 15, 2023 08:14:55 AM
Summary: We spent 5 days there in July 2023. The house is very well equipped with linens, towels, cookware, and pantry staples (very much appreciated for this couple who love to cook). The view is amazing and deck setup is wonderful. We had the windows open the entire time to hear the waves. We would definitely come back. Thank for sharing this place with us!
Kimberly G. Jul 7, 2023 10:17:49 AM
Summary: Quiet, secluded, and peaceful. Went to sleep with the windows open, listening to the sound of waves. We stayed 3 weeks, felt at home right away. The home is set up for long term stays. The host is very thoughtful and hands on. Would 100% go back again! ❀️
Anita T. Jul 2, 2023 03:37:21 AM
Summary: Very beautiful location and home.
Liz A. Nov 21, 2022 07:03:44 AM
Summary: I wanted a peaceful getaway in a gorgeous natural setting, and I got it! The host, Megan, was kind and communicative. The house and the views outside were terrific! You feel like you're almost on top of Lake Michigan. The water is too high right now for beachfront access, but it feels great to just sit outside (or inside) and listen to the waves, and to watch the moon rise at night. It's also really convenient to various destinations like Kohler, etc. If you're looking for a wonderful escape, this is it!
