Perfect Location for your Beach/Lake MI stay! You'll Love This Beautiful Home!
All completely renovated in 2021 & still looks brand new, this private home in the small community of Sunset Shores is next to the Marina. These three blocks of homes are nestled right by Lake Michigan and have their own private beach accesses for your use. They are perfect to watch a sunset or skip stones. The public beach is about a half mile walk away and is great for building sand castles, splashing in the lake or climbing the stairs through the dunes. This one level ranch has three bedrooms; two bedrooms each with a queen and one with a set of twin bunks. There are two full bathrooms, one as an ensuite to the master bedroom and an additional full bath in the main hallway. The whole home was remodeled in 2021 and offers all the finest amenities. There is a W/D, D/W, C/A, WIFI, smart TV's to watch your favorite shows in the evening, front patio, outdoor back patio, gas grill and a firepit to sit after a long day of exploring the area or being at the beach. This is the perfect home for a small family or two or three couples. Close to town and the beach. You can walk to everything and not have to worry about parking. Enjoy the many shops & restaurants that you can walk to in town. The marina is out your front door so plan a day to rent a boat or a jet ski from Oselka Marina and have a real lake experience. Many people find Dockside Retreat to be a great place to stay while in the area visiting the many wineries & distilleries. It also provides a welcoming place to stay when in the area for a fall Notre Dame football game. For those coming for more of the nightlife the Four Winds Casino is about two miles away and there is a shuttle right outside Docksides door that can pick you up and bring you home. The Stray Dog offers rooftop drinks for 21 and over where you can sit and watch the sunset over the harbor. Dockside Retreat seems to have the best Harbor Country has to offer and we'd love to welcome you to come stay with us.
