Treehouse Vibes, Modern Comfort – Private Lake Cottage Escape
Treetop Cottage, Gobles MI - PRIVATE MILL LAKE

Looking for the ultimate private lake getaway? This is it. Nestled in the treetops on the hillside of one of Southwest Michigan’s most desired private all-sports lakes, this cottage brings all the charm of a childhood treehouse — but with modern amenities and plenty of luxuries.

Fire Pit • 3 Outdoor Decks • Great Fishing
Kayaks, Paddle Boat & Row Boat Included
Fiber Optic WiFi • Roku Smart TV • Central A/C & Heat
Dog Friendly – No Dog Fees! No Cleaning Fees!
*Please Note: The cottage is built into a hillside (one house from the lake), so guests will need to navigate two staircases to reach the home. This may not be suitable for those with mobility concerns.

Inside you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable and fun-filled stay:
>Relax in the Jacuzzi tub or the double-head walk-in shower

>Cook in a full kitchen with oven + built-in air fryer, gas grill, and essentials
>Stay cozy with heat, A/C, and even an automatic whole-house generator
>Sleeps 6 comfortably with quality furnishings and tree-top views (two queen beds and 2 large couches with an area for an air mattress if you desire)



The Outdoors: Your Lakeside Playground
>Private Dock for fishing and lake lounging
>Sandy-bottom swimming area — safe and fun for all ages
>Hot Tub with a view of the trees and lake

>Fire pit for s’mores and star-gazing
>Free use of paddle boat, kayaks, and row boat (seasonal)
>Excellent fishing for bluegill, crappie, bass & more!


Note: The cottage is set back from the lake (one house from the lake) and accessed via stairs (treehouse vibes!). Due to private lake rules, outside watercraft are not permitted.

We had a great stay at the cabin. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed walking around the property and rolling around in all the snow. The place was clean and easy to check into. The hot tub was a great addition as well. Would definitely stay here again

We loved this property for our family getaway. The house was clean and the multiple decks provided spaces for everything we wanted to do. We really enjoyed the enclosed deck with our toddler and dog! The hot tub was an added bonus. We loved being away in the quiet yet close to Lake Michigan and all the other attractions nearby. We would definitely stay here again.

There was a problem with the hot tub at first. These was also a mouse staying with us that left mouse poop everywhere. Had to re wipe anything you wanted to use.

can’t recommend this place highly enough! property was even better in person, and the location was stunning. we spent most of our time on-site, but enjoyed the close proximity to several beach towns. amenities were great, and we particularly enjoyed the hot tub, private dock/boats, and the fire pit. we were super impressed by the cleanliness and the attention to even the smallest detail (it was so nice arriving to full trays of ice and a selection of coffee pods!). no issues during our stay, but reached out to the host with a couple of questions and got prompt and thorough responses every time. hoping we can stay here again someday - it was a wonderful experience!
