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.
HIGHLIGHTS
Private Dock • Hot Tub • Sandy Bottom Swimming Area
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.
The Cottage: Cozy Meets Contemporary
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
>Kick back with a 48” Plasma Smart TV (Roku) & fiber optic WiFi (with small TV available in the 2nd sitting room)
>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
>3 Outdoor Decks — perfect for sunning, dining, or sipping a glass of wine
>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.
Extras & Add-Ons
>Celebrating something special? Ask about our Romance, Anniversary, or Birthday Packages!
Traveling with little ones?
>We partner with BabyQuip (as seen on Shark Tank)! Rent clean, sanitized baby gear like cribs, car seats, strollers, toys & more — available in 1000+ cities. Ask us for pricing and scheduling!
Location Perks

>Kal-Haven Trail
>Lake Michigan beaches & coastal towns
>Wineries & breweries
>Local ski resorts & hiking trails
