Hello! We are Kathy and Chuck Kircus, the proud owners of Sandy Shores of Twin Lake.
Before the economic downturn, we worked in the automotive industry. However, we wanted a change and decided to create Sandy Shores of Twin Lake, LLC. We purchased the cottage in 2005 and the house in 2007.
Our properties aren’t just rentals – they’re our second home! We would take an annual 10-day family vacation here with our four special needs children, parents, and friends, creating cherished memories. So we know what you need for the ultimate family-friendly lakefront vacation!
In 2025, we will celebrate our 20th anniversary in the vacation rental industry. It brings us joy to see our guests making memories here, just like we have. We’d love for you to experience why our family cherishes Western Michigan so much!
Welcome! We’re Kathy and Chuck Kircus, owners of Sandy Shores of Twin Lake. Until the economic downturn, we were both involved in the automotive industry. We’re hard workers, and we love Michigan, so we immediately started looking for a new opportunity. Usually some unexpected event is what makes you realize what’s most important to you. For us, it was spending time with our family, relaxing on our pontoon boat, taking in a crisp view of the night sky.
We knew that in Michigan, we could always find a new start. So, we used the money from our retirement and created Sandy Shores of Twin Lake, LLC. We purchased the cottage in 2005, and the house in 2007.
We understand the importance of family, a calm, relaxing vacation, and how a cozy atmosphere helps bring people together. Our properties aren’t just rentals. This place is home! My family takes an annual 10-day vacation together here ourselves. We adopted four special needs children and we experience our house and cottage with them, our parents, and our close friends.
Each year, we see these children grow as they make little sandcastles and chase fireflies in the yard. Our story started with some hardship and continues with great joy. A house and a cottage later, we’re still planning our vacations and deciding who brings the marshmallows and the graham crackers for s’mores around the bonfire.
In 2015 we celebrated our 10th anniversary as Sandy Shores of Twin Lake. It’s such a gift to us to see our guests making memories with their family and friends here, just like we have. We’d be happy for you to see why our family cherishes Western Michigan so much!
At Sandy Shores of Twin Lake, LLC, our commitment is unwavering — to provide you with a lakefront escape that transcends ordinary getaways. Rooted in family values and a deep love for Michigan, we promise to deliver an experience where relaxation meets adventure. With two properties carefully curated for comfort, our commitment extends to crafting memories for families, friends, and individuals seeking the quintessential lakeside retreat.
