Silver Lake, Fall 2024.
We always have a freat time at Silver Lake. Overall cleanliness seemed ok compared to sleeping in a tent. Cabin could use some TLC. Located on a very busy corner.

Worth it
It’s a 1/4 mile from dune entrance with a view of the lake and dunes. The house was below my standards but ok. Furniture was worn out and uncomfortable. Beds were decent was a plus. Water tasted bad and sewer smell coming from the shower pretty bad. I took a shower, but my wife wouldn’t. Heater worked, but super loud so you couldn’t leave it on. For the price I would stay there again to be close to the dunes.

Cute, clean, nice view
Cottage was exactly how described. Went in late September. Located in a quieter area yet was able to watch all the side by sides and jeeps go by on their way to or from the riding area which was fun to see! Quiet in the morning and there was virtually no noise after 8pm.

Great Location and Great Cottage
This cottage was the perfect spot for us to stay while enjoying Labor Day weekend in the dunes. We were able to park our trailers and just drive our dune ready vehicles in from there. The owners were easy to work with and answered the questions I had. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
