Aqua Sandy Squirrel is located in Union Pier just 2 blocks from Whistle Stop and 2 blocks from the Luna/Gowdy Private Association Beach. This home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large screened porch, loft with two desks and monitors and a fire pit. As you enter the home you experience the openness of the space, it's brightness and beautiful colors. The living room has plenty of space to lounge while someone is preparing a meal. There's a large dining table and island that allows for 12 guests to dine together. Enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine from the coffee/wine bar located next to the island. Just outside the dining room is a large screened porch with lounge seating and a dining table. This is an amazing space and you will likely spend much of your time here! The main floor has three bedrooms. One primary suite with a full bath that features a walk in shower. The second and third bedroom both have queen beds. The laundry room is also on the main floor. Upstairs in the loft there are two desks with monitors available in case you have to work (but not too much because you have to go to the beach). The fourth bedroom and rec room are located on the second floor. As you enter the room there's a bathroom with walk in shower, a large room to hang out and watch TV, play games or just relax and a bedroom with a queen bed and two twin beds. The backyard features a fire pit, swing and outdoor shower. This home is located just blocks from the Luna/Gowdy Private Association Beach and blocks to Whistle Stop and Red Arrow Road House.

everything was nice, clean, spacious, well done
Pleasant Home Near Beach & Coffee
Recent Guest, Park Ridge, IL US
We very much enjoyed our stay at Sandy Squirrel. Less than 1 block to access a wide sandy beach and about the same distance to a coffee shop and a neighboring favorite restaurant. The house itself was clean and inviting with several areas for gathering. We're looking forward to staying again!
Beautiful Home and Beach
ingrid s., munster, Indiana United States
The house is just as you see it in the photos. Beautiful and Very well-maintained. Based on renting for 20 years and having previous issues, here are my comments: Wifi and air-conditioning worked well. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen fully stocked. House has no bad smells. Ceiling fans throughout which was nice. Screened-in porch is great usable space with lots of seating. Extra mini-fridge for drinks was huge! My college kids loved the loft area and we couldn't hear them as they watched their late night movies. Short walk to the private beach. Great lighting for jigsaw puzzles. We really enjoyed the house and the beach. My only concern for future rentals would be parking. They have a strict 3 car parking policy which was a daily burden - my family alone had 4 cars at different times (kids going back to Indiana to work) and my kids had friends coming for a day or two. We had to keep moving cars into New Buffalo. I completely understand that they want to make sure there are no parties but for a large family with young adults, we wish we had more flexibility in the parking situation. I would definitely recommend this house, aqua vacation rentals, and this location.
Fantastic Escape
Kathleen R., Shorewood, WI US
This house was perfect for a family reunion, plenty of room, a great kitchen, screened porch and a front porch. Close to a private beach (provided beach chairs and umbrella) and to Union Pier restaurants, great location! I highly recommend this vacation rental!
Super Sandy Squirrel
Recent Guest, Carmel, IN United States
We had a fantastic experience with Aqua Vacations and the rental property. The property was spotless and had everything we needed for a week's vacation at the beach. The location was perfect and the beach access was close and absolutely gorgeous. The three-season porch was perfect for gathering in the evenings. Be sure to read the emailed check-in instructions as we found bringing heavier blankets very helpful.
Perfect location and great house!
Rudabeh P., Berkeley, CA US
The house is spacious, clean, well-equipped and the private beach a block away is amazing. We will be back!
Enjoyed the stay

We enjoyed the stay.
Summer Stay
Douglas F., Naperville, IL US
This was a terrific place to spend a warm weather week. The house offers a comfortable screened porch in back (which is where one of our party set up a remote-work office; the WIFI was more than able to handle video calls.) Plus, the rocking chairs on the front porch were terrific. The landscaping attracts butterflies. A great spot for morning coffee and late afternoon reading. The beach was a short walk and really nice. The house delighted three active grandkids (aged 7 -10). Plenty of space for family meals, puzzles, and games. It was spotless when we checked in and the checkout was quick and easy. We found the beds comfortable. It's a block to a terrific coffee shop and a bakery is just a pleasant walk away. Couldn't have been more pleased!
