About this property
Ruby's Retreat - 3BR cottage in Sawyer near Warren Dunes
Newly renovated 3BR / 2 BA home located in Saywer, MI near Warren Dunes State Park and Greenbush Brewery! Sawyer is located halfway between New Buffalo and St. Joseph and is ideally situated for exploring all that SW Michigan has to offer. The cottage is located at the end of a private drive just off the Red Arrow highway. Lots of mature trees, large yard area and a huge deck make for the prefect place to relax outdoors. Brand new master bedroom with ensuite bathroom provides a relaxing retreat. The newly remodeled kitchen features light and bright finishes with a large dining area and direct access to the deck and outdoor dining area. Of the two additional bedrooms, one has a full size bed and the other includes two twin size beds. Full size washer/dryer, grill and fire pit are available for use. House also has central air! The house is kid and pet friendly with a selection of games, books and movies for your enjoyment on rainy days. Pets considered on a case by case basis and pet fee will apply. We are within walking distance of a wooded nature trail, walkable to Warren Dunes beach (1 mile from the house), and walking distance to a few nearby restaurant / cafe options. We know you'll enjoy a beach day at the dunes, relaxing in the yard, exploring the booming microbrewery / winery scene, or checking out the shops and restaurants in nearby towns.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Heidi Wang
Hello! Thank you for choosing our home in Sawyer for your vacation. My husband and I bought the home in 2014 because we fell in love with Sawyer and the surrounding area during our first vacation together a few years prior. We are both architects who live and work in the Chicago area. We love to explore the local breweries, forest preserves, beaches and restaurants, and our dog Ruby loves it all too. She actually thinks we bought the house just for her! We now have two young children who also love the outdoors and going on adventures with us. Since 2014 we've been steadily making improvements to the house and we think you'll really enjoy the cozy interior, expansive deck and yard, bright kitchen and brand new master suite retreat. We hope you have a wonderful stay and are happy to share our home with you.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the location, yard, and stately row of pines at this house and saw lots of potential. The neighborhood is quiet with easy beach access and just a short walk to a beautiful nature preserve. We also often see a family of deer wandering the property and a wide variety of birds and hawks flying overhead.
