About this property

Cozy Lake Michigan vacation house between Pentwater and Silver Lake!

Cedar Ridge Cottage is a charming vacation home with deeded access to 750 feet of private association beach on Lake Michigan. The beach is easily accessed by stairs (about 80 steps down to the lake) located just 200 feet from the house.

Ideal for families and small groups, this cozy and well-appointed house features 3 bedrooms upstairs, two with queen beds, and a third with bunk beds and full size bed. Upstairs you will find a full bath with double sinks, as well as a half bath on the first floor. The house is equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, gas range, washer and dryer, multiple televisions, and high-speed Internet. Guests can enjoy four separate covered porches (one screened), outdoor dining area with grill, and fire pit with plenty of seating.

Opportunities for relaxation and recreation abound. Enjoy this pristine and quiet stretch of lakeshore by taking walk on the beach, getting out in the water for a swim or a surf, or just soaking up the sun. After a beautiful sunset, have a campfire or relax on one of the many porches. If the weather is rainy, you’ll find plenty of games, puzzles, videos, and books to keep everyone entertained.

The house is conveniently located between Pentwater and Silver Lake, with lots of activities to enjoy within 5 miles in either direction. The lovely village of Pentwater offers ample options for shopping, dining, boating, festivals, top-notch beaches, and much more. In Silver Lake you can have your own off-road adventures on the famous sand dunes, explore historic Little Sable Lighthouse, and visit the area’s many amusement parks and recreation areas.

Great place! Wonderful base to explore Pentwater, Silver Lake, and Mears. Had everything you need for a fun family vacation. Beach was wonderful and woods near by were great for a rainy hike. Recommend The Brown Bear for a fun night out. Pentwater Pizza for some great carryout pizza.

The cottage has a great location, about 1/10 of a mile from the beach. Communication with the hosts was quick and easy. The cottage is very nice with no bugs or noticeable odors. There is a balcony on the back of the property which could have used a little more cleaning, but the inside of the property was very clean.

Awesome Getaway!

This place was everything the listing said and more. So close to Lake Michigan and tucked into a quiet neighborhood. The house was clean and it was one of the most well stocked kitchens we have stayed in. We are definitely saving this for future visits.

Wonderful place!

We spent our family vacation here, and it was wonderful. The house has everything you need - both space and amenity wise. It was clean, welcoming and spacious. The porches are great - especially if you get to relax on them during a rain shower. There Re lots of books and games to keep you busy on those days as well. Our kids loved visiting the sand dunes and lighthouse nearby. And I was a fan of Pentwater and Ludington. But the highlight of our trip was the beautiful beach. My mind will keep the memories made there for a long time. The kids counted the steps eveytime we went up and down, There are somewhere between 80 - 83 steps, per our 6 and 3 year old.

What a vacation!

Really fantastic family vacation! This property was more than we expected! We had some rain during our stay, but the house was very comfortable with plenty of games and movies to occupy us. But mostly the weather was wonderful and we enjoyed lots of beach time and big waves, then enjoyed bonfires and star gazing at night. We are a cooking family and the kitchen was also well stocked which was appreciated. We hope to return some day soon!

Great Getaway

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful house. We loved every minute! It truly had everything we needed and more! Our family loved everything…the fire pit, the deck outside to eat dinners and play games, the porches, the large kitchen table… we never felt like we were on top of each other. Lots of spots to play games as a family. But our favorite part was the location….that picturesque private beach! It definitely was the cherry on top! Thank you again for allowing us to stay. We will cherish the memories for years to come! And we look forward to returning again!

Bucket List Bungalow

It was on my bucket list to have all of my kids/family to go on vacation together. We had a wonderful time at the house, on the beach and enjoyed several activities in the close proximity. The cottage had plenty of room for 6 adults, 2 kids (ages 3 & 5) plus a little more room if you didn't want to sleep in the bedroom. We didn't realize there wasn't air conditioning until a few days before we arrived, but the weather was perfect. Extras we enjoyed, outside grill, fire pit, beach toys/umbrellas, and laundry equipment. Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely spacious cottage by Lake Michigan

We had a wonderful time at this beach cottage. It was very spacious with lots of outdoor seating and covered balconies. I especially liked the second floor screened in balcony where you could see the trees and feel the breeze. Everything was clean and comfortable. We loved how close it was to Lake Michigan. Tip for future guests: the closest community access stairs are quite steep but there a newly built staircase at the end of the road, just a short walk. There is no A/C but with fans and windows it was fine. Another tip: bring extra toilet paper, paper towels and face cloths, as there were not enough for 6 of us. The campfire was great and we even saw two deer during one evening campfire.

Sensational!

What a wonderful week we had! Our hosts were so accommodating and were quick to respond to anything we needed. We were so impressed by the amount of space we had. Lots of comfortable space inside and outside. The rooms are light and airy. The kitchen had everything we needed and the laundry room was an added bonus. Upstairs the beds are comfy with ceiling fans in each bedroom, plus an extra fan in each closet if you wanted a little more airflow. We had perfect weather with warm days and cool nights. We spent a lot of time on the front porch/deck and enjoyed a fire every night. We did bring our own firewood so that we didn’t need to replace any that was there. Be sure to check out the beach on Lake Michigan. The stairs down to the beach may be a bit too much for older folks, but if you can manage, you won’t be disappointed! The view is spectacular and although the water was a bit cold, it was totally worth it! The property’s location is just a short drive to Silver Lake. We had a blast on the Mac Wood’s Dune Ride and can’t wait to do it again! We also enjoyed beach time at the Silver Lake State Park with a magnificent view of the dunes and the water was warmer because the lake is only 16-18 feet deep at it’s deepest. We enjoyed the “best ever wings” at the Chicken Shack in Silver Lake. If you want to enjoy a delicious dinner al fresco, Gull Landing in Pentwater is just a short drive away. The outdoor dining is wonderful! Be sure to check out Hansen’s Market in Mears too.

Great Place!

Great place. My husband and I and three children ages 3,4, and 6 stayed for a week. We loved the private beach. The kids loved playing in the water and riding the waves. The stairway down to the beach is steep and long, but it was very doable for our crew. May be something to consider if stairs are a difficulty. The cottage was clean and very pretty. We enjoyed the porches, outdoor eating areas, and fire pit. Located near Silver Lake Sand Dunes, which was a neat place to explore. Would highly recommend this home and location in Michigan. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the opportunity!

Family summer vacation

We had a lovely stay at Ceder Ridge Cottage! It’s the perfect location, directly in between Pentwater and Silver Lake, and walking distance from the beautiful beach. We were pleasantly surprised with how well stocked the home was for guests with condiments, spices, dishes, board games and beach toys. The communication with the owner was excellent, Brent is very helpful and quick to respond. It was a wonderful vacation and we can’t wait to visit again!
