About this property

Nannie's Cottage

Appreciate the vintage bungalow of yesteryear, one of the few remaining originals cottages of North Beach. Enjoy the sunsets and Lake Michigan from almost every room in the house. One of the finest sandy beaches just steps from the house.
It is the hub of activity and fun.
The cottage features wainscoting, oak and tile floors, galley kitchen, dining room, front and small back porches. Two bedrooms are downstairs, one with twin bed and one with a double bed. The upstairs features a dormer (crow’s nest). This is great for the children with three beds and bath and creates private quarters for playing and quiet time alike. The large deck wraps around and provides another dining area. The cottage is from the 1920's, with multiple upgrades through out the years.
I have rented this cottage since 1987 with many happy families returning. Bring your bathing suit and enjoy.

We had a very nice stay. The house is cute and very close to the beach. Beautiful sunsets from the porch. The kids loved the bunk room upstairs.

Location

The location is perfect, it is just steps away from the beach. You can sit right on the deck and havea front row seat for the sunset.
