Artsy Cottage

We rented this cottage for a fall family get-together and it was the perfect, cozy abode for our crew. We especially enjoyed the outdoor fire pit during chilly evenings and the extensive art & book collections throughout.

Such a lovely place

We absolutely loved this house - it was so charming and on a very quiet street. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. We also loved the newly remodeled bathrooms. I think our favorite part though was the backyard and deck. The fire pit was the perfect place to wrap the day… and the swings were such a nice touch.

Wonderful property in Union Pier

We loved the ample outdoor space, which included a big deck for entertaining, as well as a firepit and tons of open grass space. Beaches were a short 2 minute drive away. The house is dated and shows it’s age, but overall has enough space for a large family, with plenty of beds.

Absolutely Charming

We (5 Millennial high school best friends) stayed at the Bright Side for a girls weekend and absolutely adored it. The space is highly functional, beautifully decorated, and stocked with books and materials for crafts (!!). It was within ten minutes walk of Union Pier restaurants and shops, and a quick 7 minutes drive from New Buffalo. Would absolutely recommend.

Cute get away

Cute house. Bathrooms are very nice. Great deck and back yard. Our only complaint is there are no railings for the steps. Appeared the rug in downstairs bedroom had not been vacuumed.

Cute as a button

They’ve created a darling home to share. Very comfortable for my 6 girlfriends. Lovely outdoor seating. Bathrooms and beds were great, and for once, a vacation home had lots of towels! There is no dishwasher and no access to laundry. Who cares? It’s just great! Roll up your sleeves and wash your dishes old school.

The house needs a few more creature comforts.

The following would have made stay nicer. Room darkening shades and clocks in bedrooms. TV in upstairs bedroom. Washer/dryer. For safety the back door inside steps should have hand rail.

Plumbing issue

The house was super cute however it was old and there was a major plumbing issue within the first few hours of us being there which caused us to be relocated the next morning. It ended up working out but was inconvenient to move an entire family and all of our stuff. Hopefully the major plumbing problems have been resolved immediately.
