Bedrooms 7 | Bathrooms 6 | Sleeps 24

Sun King, and the included coach house Jester, combine to create one of Beachwalk’s largest properties, complete with 7 bedrooms and 6 full bathrooms. And, unlike many, Sun King is a true beach house—modeled after the Kennedy Compound in Nantucket—with a wrap-around screen porch, windows galore, and plenty of outdoor living. Unsurprisingly, it is one of the most well-loved houses in Beachwalk, with families returning year after year. One of the reasons for its huge popularity is that the owners annually reinvest much of the income derived from rentals into improving the property. For 2021, this offseason the house will be painted a fresh bright orange exterior, and interior floors will be refinished and walls painted as well. This to go along with a newly upgraded kitchen that includes two full refrigerators and a commercial grade ice maker.



Sun King comes complete with the usual amazing Beachwalk amenities--swimming pool, tennis court, basketball court, beach volleyball, boardwalk leading to Lake Michigan's most beautiful beach, interior Lake Kai for kayaking, turtle-hunting, or relaxing, the custom sand castle park, kitty-corner waterfall park, next door to Central Park with summer concerts, and more! But unlike most homes, Sun King also includes a custom designed house golf cart for renter use, a large outdoor fire pit for marshmallow roasts and family bonding, a crib, a garage filled with beach and other toys, plenty of parking including one garage spot, an outdoor shower, and an incredible finished basement complete with a large television, ping pong table, and other assorted games. Sun King is gorgeous and in immaculate condition, with a wrap-around screened porch, hardwood floors, new kitchen counters and appliances, multi-level decks (several of which were recently replaced with new composite decking), and two dining room tables abutting each side of the open kitchen with seating for at least 20, including an enormous custom farmhouse dining table that itself comfortably seats 14. The farmhouse table sits below two end to end sea-shell chandeliers you will have to see to believe.

Sun King was designed with large groups or families in mind; you will have your pick of 7 separate and private bedrooms spread across four finished floors in the main home and a recently renovated and totally private guest house perched above the garage, with its own kitchen, dining table, flat screen television, and full bathroom. And, of course, there is plenty of space for large groups to gather and spend time together, including the massive open concept main floor centered around a fire place and large television, the seemingly endless wrap around porch complete with seating for a crowd, and a large deck with outdoor shower off the back of the house that meets up with the wrap around porch. If you are looking for a beach house to accommodate a large group or family, look no further--you won't find anything better.

(NOTE: From May-September, Beachwalk charges $5 for parking passes and $15 per guest weekly fee for use of the pool--this will be collected either by the resort staff upon arrival or you can pay in advance).

Our stay was amazing. The home was huge, clean, plenty of ice, loved the golf cart. But, there was no foosball, balls. A lame ping pong ball was inside the game. We ordered some foosballs from amazon prime when we saw we needed them with Special instructions to leave them at the front door. They put them "in your mail box". I hope future guests will enjoy the foosball game.
Exceeded expectations.

My family of 4 grown children and their families came together from across the country to stay at the SunKing/Jester. There were 22 of us most of the week. The accommodations were fabulous. Probably the best one ever over our years renting at the Lake. Every family has some personal space and yet the common areas were generous enough to accommodate us all in a myriad of activities. Our ages ranged from 72 to 2 and we all had a wonderful time. It would have been nice to have a six seater golf cart because of our sheer numbers and the distance to the beach head. But we really enjoyed being tucked away a little farther back in the neighborhood rather then on the main drag by all the resort facilities.
The resort facilities were excellent, activities for all ages and most everything was clean and well maintained. We have stayed up and down the lakeshore for many years from Michigan City to Union Pier and Beachwalk was the best yet. The management was very responsive to the few issues we had. Best vacay ever for this grandmother of 12. Thank you Beachwalk for a great time!

Our three generation family totally enjoyed our stay here! Everything was clean and ready for us. We had a couple of issues with some of the locks on the property, and property managers swiftly helped us. The house and apartment had plenty of room for us all to make use of. Local sights kept us busy. We especially enjoyed the beach and the zoo. None of us wanted to leave! It was all we expected and more.

10 adults/8 kids. First trip to Lake Michigan area. BWV was professional.
We loved that this is a golf cart community. No vehicle traffic....just carts.
The house was well stocked with everything. No need to bring anything from home. A few things that could've been cleaner, but acceptable.
We'll be back.
The sun king is beautiful and spacious. Enjoyed our stay there.

Beach walk has so many things for families to do. Our grandkids enjoyed the pool, basketball court, fishing dock and the play ground.

The Sun King was perfect for our mini-retreat. Everything was clean, organized, and in working order. The house is cozy and peaceful with the light fixture over the dining table and the fireplace being key features. I highly recommend.
Tons of fun

We had 22 people and enough room to spare. We came on a warm October weekend so we still got to experience the beach. The ice maker was so useful and I love how big the dining room table is. Only thing I disliked was how early the check out time is and how late the check in time is, but it was a really nice stay.

We stayed at the Sun King/ Jester 2 years ago. We thought the property had deteriorated somewhat since then. Little maintenance had been done. The mattresses are in pretty bad shape. We did enjoy the addition of the commercial ice machine. Over all we enjoyed the large space and the location of the house. The kayaks and the other equipment at the small pond need updated.

Three generations all together under one roof, laughing, cooking, playing games and creating beautiful memories. This house was perfect. We will definitely come back. It had everything we needed & some nice extras. Only one thing, more serving bowls.

This is our 5th year staying at this rental, it is big enough for all of us to relax with plenty of room for everyone. We love the layout and having the 2 dining tables is just what we need to sit around and visit, eat, and play games.
