About this property

260 Feet of Sandy Lake Michigan Beachfront

Lake Michigan water views abound at our historic cottage located directly on a pristine sandy beach (with NO rocks) - and now with central air on the entire 1st floor. Walk in your bare feet to enjoy sunrise coffee on the sand. Unforgettable lake views throughout and also from the upstairs master and 2nd bedrooms. Come for extraordinary privacy and peaceful solitude and enjoy the amazing sun and moon rises over the lake. This unique beach front cottage on the sand awaits you!

Our cottage is highlighted by a 50 foot screened lake front porch. It is adorned with colorful hand painted furniture, an inviting large dining table, a vintage rocker collection, and custom designed upholstery. Whether you choose to chill in a rocker or take a snooze on the daybed, the lake porch is perennial visitor favorite. Please take a moment to sign our guest book and add your cottage memory to our journal.

The large upstairs master bedroom has jaw dropping sit down lake views (not an exaggeration, see the site landing photo), queen size bed, air conditioning, ceiling fan, desk/work station, dresser, many hanging hooks and a cozy, water front view reading area.
The second upstairs bedroom has a twin bed, a double bed, ceiling fan, another water front view reading area with 2 comfy chairs, a toy suitcase, and lots of space for playing and portable crib(s). This bedroom is the only one without AC however there are several lake front and other windows as well as a new oversized ceiling fan. There is a full, though very small, bathroom upstairs.
The Porch Bedroom has a queen bed, ceiling fan, 2 dressers, plus a private entrance to porch.
The Peach Bedroom has a queen bed, ceiling fan, lots of hanging hooks and dresser.

Our somewhat dated kitchen has a brand new refrigerator, a newer range/oven, new microwave, coffee maker/filters and ample storage and dish drying areas.
Pullout daybed (trundle on bottom) with privacy curtains on lake front porch sleeps 2 with amazing views and sounds of Lake Michigan - a favorite spot!
The living room sports a large screen Roku TV, wood burning fireplace and plenty of comfortable seating. Firewood is sold at local grocery stores. You may sign into your streaming accounts, but be certain to sign out. The game room has a large collection of games and books (adult, reference, children), including our "Seagull Share" bookshelf and there is has a perfect table for puzzles, board games, and meals.

Please note that we have a No Animals/ Pet policy in agreement with the neighbors on our cozy lane. We charge a cleaning fee and $5 per guest per night with groups over 6.

Such an amazing getaway. Spent lots of time out on the beach relaxing and our little one playing in the sand. This place is amazing! We were able to easily go up to Kohler-Andrae state park and Bookworm gardens, too, which was a blast!

We loved our time at the Seagull Lodge. It is a charming cottage in a great location. The porch overlooking the lake was a perfect morning coffee spot, and the sandy beach was just steps from the back door. Communication about our stay was timely and very helpful. Thank you!

This was our first visit to the cottage, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The cottage is well stocked with essential items, and all kitchen equipment works flawlessly. Beautiful sunrises and plenty of sand on a great beach. Upstairs air conditioning was welcomed by those in our group needing respite from the heat. We hope to return again soon.

Great Cottage on Lake Michigan

We enjoyed our week at Seagull Cottage. The weather was great and we took advantage of the sandy beach every day. The cottage had everything we needed. The large porch overlooking the lake was terrific for meals and just relaxing.

Great stay! Amazing beach!

We stayed with our three small kids for two nights and absolutely loved it. The cottage is small but had everything we needed, the online information and description is 100% accurate. The beach is absolutely the draw of this place!!! So much wide open sand, it’s private, not rocky, and the water is about as warm as you can for Lake Michigan. We would definitely stay again!

Wedding Weekend

I booked this lovely house for my family during my wedding weekend and it was the most beautiful stay! The house is full of so much history and we all loved reading the stories that went along with it. The location was beautiful and we’re so lucky to have gotten the opportunity to make our own memories there. The hosts were so nice and accommodating, we really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

Quiet with beautiful beach

My family and I had a very nice stay at the Seagull Lodge. I personally loved how peaceful and quiet it was, my kids loved the sandy beach and sand bottom in the water, while my wife loved the long walks on the sandy shoreline. The home itself is a little old, but it had everything we needed, plus the enclosed front porch area was just great for sitting and watching the water or eating at the large table. My kids have already said that they want to rent it next year.

Perfect multi family getaway. The beach is super close to the house. The back porch is fully screened in and totally perfect - we ate all our meals out there. You can hear the waves crashing in as you sleep. All the basics and more are provided for and signs and instructions are perfectly clear. 110% satisfied customers!

Lake Michigan stat

Quaint historic Dutch cottage on sandy Lake Michigan. Cottage had all the comforts of home with multiple areas for family members to gather. The porch along the lakeside of the cottage was a wonderful space to hang out in the evenings. Kitchen was well equipped with adequate counters and cupboard space to store our food. Hosts were very attentive and responsive.

Serenity

The Seagull Cottage was a perfect place for our family of four to unwind on the sandy beach of Lake Michigan. The cottage is stocked with anything you need, and everything is organized and easy to find. Our stay was very peaceful, I think we saw maybe a dozen people walking the beach over our six day stay. The cottage and town is full of history, and we recommend visiting the dirt track races on Saturday night in Plymouth. We could not have asked for a better place to stay, or a better host. Mary was extremely responsive and made sure that we knew all of the ins and outs. We highly recommend this property of a day stay or a month!

About the host

Hosted by Mary, Marty & Jeremy Fleischman

Host profile image
In addition to spending time at The Seagull Lodge my husband and I love to swim, ski, hike, backpack and hang out with our family.
"There is nothing higher and some good memory--especially a memory of childhood, of home." -Fydor Dostoyevsky

Why they chose this property

The Seagull Lodge is located on land that has been in my mother's family since the late 1800's. My husband, son and I are fortunate to be the current owners of this property. Since we are not able to get there as often as we would like, we decided to list our cottage for use by others who, we are certain, will find it as special as we do. Our sons honed their crawling skills on the beach, learned to bike up hills on Smies Road, became strong swimmers by challenging each other to make it to the second sandbar and have spent hour after hour playing in the sand. The four of us (now along with their significant others) continue to gather at the cottage every summer. The Seagull Lodge is a wonderfully peaceful, laid-back, private, and magical place. We are certain you will create your own memories with a stay at our property.

What makes this property unique

When I come to the cottage I don't like to leave. For quick trips into town I prefer to bike with my backpack to hold the groceries. I love the natural beauty of our lake and wooded surroundings and relish the peaceful; yet dramatic setting. Long walks on the beach and country roads are a favorite as well as reading, socializing, working on projects, and playing games with family and friends.
