### Recent Reviews
- **George Zivich**: "My wife and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway and we could not have been happier.  Justin and Samantha responded quickly to our last minute booking request due to a last minute cancelation at our original rental.  All the directions and information made it easy to find and access the property, and everything was clean and well maintained. 
The property gave us walking access to the beach and the nearby zoo, and was well located for us to drive into Chicago for a day. Everything we needed for our stay, including beach chairs that we forgot, were provided.  
We would absolutely stay with Justin and Samantha again." (10/5)
- **Mojahed Idris**: "Nice and clean and walking distance to the beach. I love it" (10/5)
