Happy New Year! We're now taking reservations for 2010....

Lakeside cottages often possess a certain rustic charm. In Sandy Cottage, you’ll find plenty of charm – without the rustic.

You can see Lake Huron from the living room, kitchen and upper bedroom.

Just 110 feet from a private Lake Huron beach. How's the beach? It's low, with no stairs, and broad, with lots of sand. Although water shoes are suggested for wading in across some little stones, there's a close-in sandbar on which you can walk for a mile in hip- or chest-deep water. Two large lakefront parks are each two-tenths mile away.

Sandy Cottage offers a deluxe getaway for two, a spacious retreat for four, and it's comfy for up to six, the max. From Father's Day through Labor Day, the rental week is Monday noon through Sunday night. Short stays may be available on a last-minute basis. The rest of the year, a two-night minimum applies.

The comforts of a year-round home are yours in 1,500-s.f. Sandy Cottage. It’s up-to-date, clean and fresh. Located at the lake end of a one-lane drive. No road noise.

Second-floor suite, 400 s.f., has a queen bed, reading alcove, cathedral ceiling, skylights, romantic lighting, attached bathroom (double sinks, tub-shower combo) and dressing room/closet.

In a cozy nook on the first floor, you have – well okay, it’s a daybed plus trundle, but they have great mattresses. The first-floor bathroom has a stall shower. A queen sofa bed also is available.

Prepare meals in the fully equipped kitchen. Dine overlooking an intimate, fenced garden.

The owners furnish Sandy Cottage with the same amenities as their Adventure Inn Bed and Breakfast next door, right down to the Aveda shampoo and locally handmade soaps.

Payment options include Visa and MasterCard, PayPal and equivalent Canadian dollars.

Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 1991

The description "semi-retired" applies to us only because there's no shorter description for "we never know what we'll be doing next."
Last year, for example, we launched a venture to promote living, working and vacationing in Michigan's Thumb. (The website is MIthumbprint.com.)
To us, this wonderful slice of Lake Huron shoreline seems under-appreciated by many people. With a stay at Sandy Cottage, guests from all over the world can experience the beauty and down-home charm of Michigan's Thumb.
-- Nicholas & Sandy

Why the Owner Chose Lexington

Buying this place was a defensive move, frankly. We were pouring a lot of money into our home on the adjacent property, and this cottage was a dump, a drag on the neighborhood, a real ugly duckling.
It was "Hometime" meets "Tool Time."
Sandy saw the design potential. Nicholas saw the potential of acquiring a lot of great tools.
We gutted it, over-improved it, fell in love with it, and though we decided not to sell at any price, eventually we decided to share it with others.

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage

Each guest appreciates something different about Sandy Cottage. For many, it's all about the beach and the water and the view. For some, it's the high standard of quality and comfort in this cottage. For others, it's the quiet neighborhood, or the sound of the waves, or the artful interior or even just the romance of the fireplace.
