About this property

350 feet of private beach on Lake Michigan, 6 acres of privacy

Large rustic cottage on six wooded acres with 350 feet of private beach right on Lake Michigan. Cottage is several hundred yards off the road and through a forest for quiet and privacy. Cottage has three bedrooms, each with a queen sized bed, and loft area with 6 twin beds. One bathroom. Large screened front porch with panoramic views of the lake and sunsets. Cottage yard has charcoal grill, picnic tables, firepit for campfires and lots of room to play. 8 guests maximum. No pets, no smoking.

Cottage does not have washer/dryer or dishwasher. Shower room separate from bathroom.

2020 note: Lake Michigan is expected to hit a record high water level in 2020 and as such, we don't expect to have much, if any, beach. This issue is affecting all properties on Lake Michigan, not just ours.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Why they chose this property

My grandfather bought this cottage in the summer of 1941. Our next door neighbors to the north have been owners since 1939! This is a old-style cottage, with screened in porch, no air conditioning, no washer/dryer, no WiFi and no cable or satellite TV! We do have a small TV with DVD player for viewing videos. No live TV reception. We have several renters who have been renting for over 10 years--they tell us they keep coming back because the love the cottage, the beach, the woods and the proximity to Pentwater and Silver Lake.
