Very Rare location. A Lake Erie private beach is just steps down from a fenced backyard and there is a little river/canal across the street. This place is literally "Pure Michigan" right in the Southeast. You'll love it here!

Thanks kindly!

Rare location!!! A Lake Erie private beach is a few steps down from a fenced backyard and there is a circular canal on the other side of home. This place is literally "Pure Michigan" right in Southeast, Michigan.


The home is nothing too fancy, but your here for the lake! Its an older resort home. Our goal was to keep it simple, comfortable, and accommodating so that you can enjoy a relaxing beach life in a quiet community.

It is quiet, private, breezy, and healing here. Unwind under the stars and an incredible moonrise. Sleep to the sounds of the waves. Wake up to a sunrise! Its quite unique.

This place is great for families. Enjoy yourself while your kids can play on the beach right in front of you or in the fenced in yard's sandbox. There also is a non vented large closet upstairs that holds some toys and child items like a comfy rocking chair, books, pack n play, high chair, bouncer, rock n play, and 2 baby gates for the stair areas.

Some gym equipement, ping pong, air hockey, and foos ball in the basement. badminton with balls. Cornhole. Ring toss. Darts. Chess. Drying rack. Beach umbrella. Life jackets. Beach towels. yoga mats. Karaoke machine.

The beach is mostly very sandy and just gets bigger through the summer and into the fall months-which are absolutely gorgeous out here! Sept is a favorite. The prettiest time. Still warm being more south and one of the more shallow great lakes. Please note that we cannot be responsible for mother nature such as high water levels, algae, seaweed/debris. All rare but can happen.

* 2021 and 2022 had a great summers. No algae anywhere in area. Yey! However, we did have a very hot and a bit of a rainy season in 2021. Keep in mind, that this is a cottage on the water. Flies love humid days. 2022 was perfect though!

*Also, be aware that this is a wild private beach. Lake life will have different personalities. It is mostly sandy and the water is clear. Sometimes its calm like glass. Sometimes really wavy. Sometimes seaweed and debris washes up (rake available for you.) 2021 had only three pretty bad seaweed days after a storm that was unpredictable just like rain. Lake Erie is a shallow lake which gives the beach personality and keeps it warm during late spring and early fall for a longer summer season unlike the other deeper colder lakes in up north michigan.

*if there is a strong east wind or storm the tide can cover the beach but eventually resides. It still remains very shallow and accessible. Summer 2021 did not have this issue once.

The lake is more than suitable for swimming as it is shallow just from shins to under your chest pretty far out with a sandbar (please still swim at your own risk). (Bring watershoes as sometimes there are some rocks.) Some pple bring an anchor and hook up their rafts, jet skis, and boats for easy access to the home. (Free boat launch 5 miles away. Marina Boat launch 1 mile away)

There is a large charcoal grill for your bbq. A family artist just built a custom made steel cabana that you can sit and eat under for some shade or to enjoy a majestic rainy day that is often followed by an awesome rainbow.

There are 2 kayaks for you for use on the canal (that circles around) or lake that are lightweight and have easy access. We now have a blow up paddle board as long as guests keep them intact. Lots of boggie boards for kids.

You may make a beach bonfire but please be respectful of wind conditions and smoke going into neighbors areas as that is not allowed.

We have enough outdoor furniture to suit everyone and a folding table available as well. Set up how you would like

We do have a security camera installed just in the front driveway overlooking the road simply for your safety and the neighborhoods safety. We value your privacy. Once the gate is entered it is very private for you.

Please be aware that this area is on a peninsula a bit far out into the lake. Some phone companies have bad service in this area. We have a landline. We do not offer refunds for power outages and internet issues but we will try to address them as best as we can and recommend travel insurance for all those unexpected events.

*This property is being advertised for residential purposes only according to the Michigan state Court cases. the calendar may not reflect booked days according to that due to personal usage and other factors. no commercial short term stays allowed. will do a contract upon booking.
