About this property
Reminiscent of a lighthouse on the shores of Lake Mi
Need an escape ? An amazing view while “working from home”? Everything you need but in a quiet and peaceful setting? Then Shorething South Lighthouse is your place.
Get the feeling of staying in a lighthouse with 360 degree views to Lake Michigan’s shore which is just yards away on sandy Trailsend Bay.
This five level floor plan that revolves around a central, artist designed original internal water feature will give you a unique stay..
The house is being restored, updated and will be welcome to guests starting in 2021.
As owners of another top rated rental in the area we hope our new guests will find the same level of cleanliness and attention to details in this new venture as in our other property. It is family owned and operated with respect for neighbors, guests and the beach community.
Some details:
Downstairs suite with queen bed and walkout to patio facing lake. Adjacent to bedroom is a gathering area with queen sleeper sofa with upgraded mattress. TV and extra seating. Shared large bathroom with shower.
Next Level contains the Kitchen and eating area with all top end appliances, Viking Gas Stove, Sub-zero fridge and the main living room with TV, wood stove, sofa and reading and reclining chairs. Large deck off this floor facing lake for additional seating and dining. Spiral stairs off deck leads down to beach.
Next level contains a large shower and bath, laundry room and Master bedroom with King bed and additional twin sleeping sofa if needed.
As you wind your way to the top level surrounded by windows with sneak peaks of the lake and woods is a sleeping loft with queen bed and Serta sleep bench (twin), gas Vermont style stove, book shelves and reading nook for viewing the ever changing lake or just a cozy lofty get-a-way.
