About this property

Sit by the fire with a beautiful lake view, pet friendly, close to the beach

This pet friendly house has been completely redone and everything is bright, modern and brand new! You can sit on the deck and watch the sailboats or sit at the firepit and roast a hotdog with firewood provided! You are just minutes from beautiful Pere Marquette Beach! The house is fully stocked with everything you should need. Just bring clothes! Plenty of room to park your boat trailer!

The lower level of the house is like a separate living space with its own bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen and full living room. It is perfect for two families traveling together or one big family that wants space. You can't go wrong.

We Would Stay Here Again!

We really enjoyed our stay on this property. It was cute, comfortable, and clean and had everything we needed and more. We were only there two nights, but we wished that we could have made use of more of the amenities like the fire pit and yard games that were provided. We did not bring our dog this time, but we would love to do that in the future. Overall, we highly recommend this property.
