Our family just returned from a wonderful week at Lantern Cottage. This property is the PERFECT blend of old and new. Fir floors throughout, a spacious, fully equipped kitchen centered on an awesome built-in antique glass-front cabinet. Stainless appliances, windows galore, huge screen porch, vaulted ceilings, tasteful furniture and decorating, and central air!!! Classic, yet informal, appointed with all the comforts of home! The setting is magnificent, steps away from the sun and surf at McKinley Beach, yet tucked away in Southwest Michigan's coastal forest, among a group of historic cottages that recall a simpler time; for this reviewer, exactly the way a week at the beach ought to be!!!! Thanks so much to the owners for offering such a terrific property!!!!! We need to confirm our 2018 dates, but plan to book again!!! Pete and Rose Lange Family
