Perfect getaway

This house couldn’t have been more perfect for 2 families (8 people total). Plenty of room and more than enough upscale amenities and personal touches. I’ve never felt so at home at a rental house before! The location was ideal, as well. Close to everything we wanted to see and do. Host was very helpful at giving us ideas on where to eat and what to do. We cannot wait to come back and stay again!

Great stay for a 3rd year in a row

We had another fantastic stay at Wandering Soul. The property owners are always super thoughtful, and one step ahead. One experience stood out this time. After a rainy night and morning, we were delighted to find they had delivered fresh dry firewood after the weather cleared in the afternoon - our kids were delighted with a surprise s'mores evening!

A beautiful Haven

Hospitality is an art. And Gina and Andrew have created a restful, beautiful haven for their guests to enjoy that nurtures and restores body and soul. The home is situated in a beautiful, well designed landscape that draws you outside to relax, to wander, and to drink in the beauty of their lovely property. The home itself is stylish, well-planned and thoughtfully provisioned for various guests and their varied plans, whether it's a couple on a quiet getaway, or a full house on a Lake vacation. Gina and Andrew have anticipated your needs. So come in, take a deep breath, and relax and enjoy yourself!

We have been staying at wandering souls for many years and it’s always great. It’s such a comfortable, clean home and lives bigger than a 3 br due to the kids bunk room. It’s a great spot, there are many personal touches that set it apart from a typical vrbo.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Wandering Soul Cabin. The home is even better that it looks in photos, and it had everything we needed for a long weekend away with friends, including tons of toys for little kids. The backyard and the hammock, complimentary s'mores for the firepit, and the walk around the pond were amazing. We used the laundry and grilled and all appliances are high-end and working well. And it's a short distance to New Buffalo, Union Pier, the Warren State Dunes, and Round Barn...all of which we visited during our brief stay. Gina was extremely easy to communicate with, and always replied right away. Can't wait to come back again in the future!

We love this property. So cozy, clean and well decorated. We have stayed here 3 times now. The pond and yard is great for outdoor time and the beach is not to far of a drive. Great beds and comfortable furniture, and great hosts with a passion for hospitality.

Wonderful home with an amazing yard

This was our second time staying at Wandering Soul, and we absolutely love it! Every detail is perfect for creating a cozy and relaxing vacation. The home is beautiful and spacious with a fantastic play area for kids upstairs. The screened in porch and yard are beautiful in the fall, and we enjoyed walking around the pond and canoeing in the evenings. We had a wonderful time, and we can't wait for our next visit!

Wonderful stay!

This place is absolutely amazing! The house is exactly as the pictures show. Very clean, smells fresh, amazingly decorated and very cozy. The beds are very comfortable. We cooked large meals for our family and found everything we needed in the kitchen. We made s’mores out at the fire pit and fished in the pond. It made for an incredible week. The house and the location is so relaxing and was just what we were looking for. If this place is available it is definitely worth booking! Walking distance to downtown Saywer and we checked out Greenbush and the coffee shop. It was great!

This house gets better and better every time!

This was my family's fourth time staying at this property with friends. The house is absolutely wonderful, and every time we stay there are new features for us to enjoy. The house is such a welcoming, relaxing space that we we were thrilled to have a rainy day and an excuse to stay in and enjoy the house and screened in porch. Our kids love the play area and the backyard. The outdoor table is absolutely perfect on warm summer night, and the location is great. We walked to Greenbush for dinner one night and to Infusco for coffee every morning. The house is very close to the beach, vineyards, and all that SW Michigan has to offer, and has a well-stocked kitchen for enjoying the fresh, local produce. We'll definitely be back again!

Spotless, beautiful, and relaxing

This is a wonderful space to decompress. I rented it on my own to get some work done and the only thing I was worried about was how often people mentioned it was kid-friendly. Usually places that have seen a lot of kids are worse for the wear, but this home was so pristine it looked like no one had ever been in it before. The pictures are very accurate and the space is very tastefully decorated, the hosts are generous and easy to communicate with, and the grounds are immaculately kept. I really enjoyed eating tomatoes from the vine in the garden. The upstairs is very “kid-friendly” but it was also easy to temporarily move the (albeit very lovely) kid toys into a bedroom and set up a yoga mat. The house is in a cul-de-sac, so there are neighbors and some new construction going on, but it was mostly quiet and all the space at the back of the house is very private. It was also a quick walk to the market for anything you might need food-wise. Everything in the home is very high-end, which is rare (and very generous!). I definitely felt like I got more than my money’s worth.
