About this property

Private Gowdy Beach Rights on Lake Michigan

Private Beach rights on Lake Michigan
Location on VRBO is incorrect. You do not need to use the crowded public Townline Beach; our home has private association beach rights. It is about a 4-5 minute walk or a 2 minute bike ride with the bikes we provide. The first floor features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, skylights and hardwood floors. There is a living room with stone fireplace, dining room that seats ten and a kitchen with granite counter tops that seats four. The first floor also has a large screened-in porch that leads to the backyard stone patio, fire pit, grill and sand volleyball court. Two bedrooms (one with queen size bed and access to the porch and one with bunk beds with trundle), one full bathroom (shower) and one half bath with pedestal sink are also located on the first floor. There is also a washer/dryer. (see below for 2nd floor description.)




Second floor: The second floor consists of a large secluded bedroom with a queen size bed, a daybed with trundle and an attached full bath(shower). Both bed and bath have skylights. The private balcony off the bedroom overlooks the backyard/patio/volleyball court of the property and is perfect for morning coffee.

Thick bath towels, memory foam topped beds with high thread count sheets and brand new bedding are also provided.

This three bedroom two and a half bath home comfortably sleeps 9. Additionally, there are 2 pack& plays with sheets for infants. It is perfect for one or even two small families and is very kid friendly (complete with tire swing/sand volleyball court). It is also perfect for a romantic getaway or a girls weekend.
The setting is peaceful on this wooded lot on a quiet century old tree lined road that leads straight to the beach. The local bakery, deli and grocer are nearby and if you use the bicycles provided it will take about 4 minutes.


We have tried to think of everything to make your stay extra special and comfortable and your packing to be as easy as possible. All you need is your bathing suit and food - we will provide the rest including beach chairs, beach towels, umbrella, cooler with wheels, bicycles, wagon and beach toys.

If staying during the fall/winter months enjoy great nature walks right outside the front door or through Warren Woods. Both are great places to go cross country skiing. You can also sled down Warren Dunes or down hill ski at one of the many Michigan ski resorts approximately one hour away. If you don't feel like going anywhere, enjoy the wood burning fireplace in the living room and snuggle in bed under the down filled comforters provided.

Family Reunion at the Lake
Such a great house! Perfect for our group. Kitchen and open concept family room are prefect for cooking, entertaining and hanging out as a big group. Bedrooms were cozy and clean. Screened in porch was a great place for sipping morning coffee. The yard was also a big plus. Volleyball games by day and fire pit by night. My kids loved the tire swing out front. Really the perfect place for us. Can’t wait to come back next year!

Bright and sunny lake cottage
We just came back from our second stay at this cozy (yet spacious) and charming lake cottage. We love this home for its comfortable and sunny decor, it’s relaxing and airy screen in porch and it has the best backyard my 11 year old son and his buddy could hope to find on vacation. We spent a lot of time playing volleyball and badmitton along with other sports in the yard. The tire swing was a big hit too! The home is stocked with anything you might need from the kitchen to linens to a garage full of beach supplies. The private beach itself is lovely and a short 7-8 minute walk down a peaceful lane. It’s also within walking distance to one of our favorite bakeries and a small grocery. Mina, the owner, was very responsive to any questions and was accommodating to our last minute booking. We’re looking forward to renting the cottage again and would enthusiastically recommend it!

Adorable Property
Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our friend getaway weekend! The property was clean and had everything we could possibly need. Super close to a beautiful private beach.

Perfect House for a Getaway!
The house is adorable! The main room is even cuter in person and is a great open space where your family can hang out. The kids loved the bunk beds and the ping pong in the garage. Just a short walk to the beach and fully stocked garage with beach chairs, bikes and toys! Firepit setup is great too! Look forward to coming back to enjoy the area again in the future! Highly recommend!

Labor Day Weekend
We had a nice Labor Day weekend at the property. We loved the screened in porch and the open kitchen living area with a nice big table for games. The bikes were great to head to the beach.
