It was lovely!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The view from the deck was unbelievable and so quiet. The cottage was perfect for sharing with my sister and her husband because they had the entire lower level to themselves, including their own entrance. Everything you could want is provided.We couldn't get enough of the beach and hope to go back again.

Quaint, quiet, private and relaxing

Good layout providing beautiful view of Lake Michigan from the deck, kitchen and living area. Kids enjoyed the bunk beds and children’s toys and books in the play area. Beach chairs and sand toys at the beach were perfect. Heating and cooling worked well. Bluetooth speakers and wifi worked well; able to enjoy music, movies and join video conferences for work.

Girls weekend

My sister in law took our 6 adult daughters for a well needed get together. We had a wonderful time. The cottage was so nice the pictures don’t do it justice. The sunsets were breath taking.

Fantastic property for a beach getaway

Our group came into town from Seattle and after a long journey we were thrilled with our decision to stay here. The property has a fantastic view overlooking Lake Michigan and includes easy beach access which is surprisingly private. The house fit our group of 8 comfortably and everyone slept comfortably. Overall we had a fantastic stay and I would absolutely recommend this property to others.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Mack

This is a family cottage that we have stayed in since I was a child. I was raised in Illinois and spent the summers exploring the natural beauty of Lake Michigan coastline at the cottage. I loved this place so much I eventually moved to the area and am now a long time resident of West Michigan and love everything it has to offer.
