Private Lake Michigan Beach, Charmerende Cottage med fantastisk udsigt!

It’s unfortunate the reviewer expressed concerns about their stay at Sunset Cottage. In response to this review, we respectfully disagree. We have rented our cottage since purchasing and renovating it in 2008. Since that time we have only received positive feedback. In fact many of our guests come back year after year. As a historic home in Macatawa built into a sand dune in the 1890s it is a vertical cottage with four levels: a cellar for storing outdoor items, the 1st level (which is incorrectly referred to as a “basement” by the reviewer), the 2nd level which is the main living/kitchen/dining space with a large deck, and the 3rd level which is a sleeping loft. There are two bathrooms, one of which has a shower and the other a standard size tub. We have had groups of up to eight stay in the home comfortably without issue in the past. All of this is clearly explained in our listing with many photos. We try to communicate with guests beforehand to make sure the home will be a good fit for their party. On occasion we’ve had potential guests with mobility issues or with young children ask about stairs and we have explained that if they have elderly people with physical challenges or very young children, the house may not be a good fit for them. It is a four level home so of course there are stairs. The stairs are safe, not steep and the treads are standard depth. In regard to the early construction noise across the street, as soon as we were alerted to it on the first day, we notified the owner who apologized and stopped the work being done. As far as problems with watching the World Cup, we instructed the reviewer how to find it on cable to which they replied they had it worked out. We watched the USA Women’s team win ourselves there the following week. In summary, we strive to provide a comfortable cottage with many updated amenities and we want our guests to enjoy it and have a wonderful vacation!
