The cozy cottage was the perfect spot for us! It was so peaceful and we really enjoyed the private beach access! It was exactly what we were looking for, for our girls weekend!
Quick communication with owner, beautiful private beach within walking distance (does involve quite a few stairs, but it was manageable even with infants and our grandmother)— the neighborhood was quiet and felt safe.
Very cozy shabby chic cottage in a twist location. Easy walk to a gorgeous beach (there are stairs) with crystal clean water. The cottage has everything you may need or want and the owner Hailey is a gem!
Cottage was very sweet. Charming vintage decore. Very clean and well stocked. Beach was amazing! Short walk, beautiful sunsets, not crowded. Wewill book again!
We had the best time during our vacation at this property. The location, the property, the proximity to the beach-all was wonderful and we hope to return!

Thank you so much for the review, Eileen! We hope to see you again next summer!
Charming, comfortable cottage that was very clean and well appointed. We’ve rented many places in the area and we will definitely be coming back to this place when it’s available. One of the best beaches in the area and it’s not crowded like the public access beaches down the road in U.P.
My family really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The private beach is amazing and the cottage provides everything you need to make your stay comfortable and fun! Highly recommend this place!

My family and I stayed at The Cottage and had a wonderful time. The cottage was clean and just a short walk to the beach. It is also a close drive to New Buffalo. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again.
Sweet cottage, reminiscent of old school Lakeside stay! Great location, nice updated kitchen and bathrooms, everything you need for a beach vacation. We had a wonderful time.

Had a fantastic stay with our family, 5 total. Access to the private beach was the best part. Short drive to New Buffalo and other towns. Planning to go back next summer !

Thank you so much for the review, Rebecca! We would love to host you again in the future.
This is a great place to vacation. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen is so well stocked with all pans and utensils that you would ever need. The big thrill is the lack is just a few minutes walk away.

Your home was welcoming and allowed us to relax and reconnect. It was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy home cooked meals and long evening talks. The location to the beach was perfect. We enjoyed ourselves so much we didn’t want to leave
