Cute Lakefront Cottage on Lake Michigan.

Beautiful 900 square foot cottage with 3 bedrooms and 1 bath. Panoramic view of Lake Michigan is breathtaking. Clean updated interior. Two bedrooms have double beds and one bedroom has bunk beds. The cottage sleeps 6 comfortably. You will enjoy the spacious living/kitchen/dining area. Flat screen TVs are in the living room and master bedroom. The cottage is in a private association so there is plenty of privacy. It has a newer LP gas furnace for cool nights if needed. There is usually a nice cool breeze off of Lake Michigan for your comfort. But large fans are provided in each bedroom if needed. Two kayaks are provided if you would like to use them off site. Unfortunately the high water levels this spring has made it so you can’t swim or kayak directly from the property. However there are several places to swim and kayak close by. The kitchen is clean, convenient and has all of the utensils, plates, pots, and cookware you will need for your comfort. Bedding and towels are provided as well. It is located just 5 minutes from recreational Silver Lake and 15 minutes from quaint Pentwater Village. A great family vacation place.

First no internet connection and the phone signal is terrible. No laundry to wash your gear. Dishwasher not working properly. The mattress in the master bedroom is not comfortable at all. The grill is filthy. The sink water is smell bad. Other than that is good location.

The view is beautiful from the cottage and we enjoyed the area with all the local things to do. I think Silver Lake and the dunes is a hidden gem.

Excellent family vacation
This little cottage was such a delightful place to stay! Comfortable beds, clean and beautiful decor (my boys loved looking and talking about the bear and antlers on the wall!), nicely stocked kitchen items, excellent view, and even s’more fixings complete with firewood and fire starter kit provided! We felt so invited and refreshed! Neighbors were nice, too! Nearby beaches were easily accessed and not too crowded. Overall, a great place to stay for some R&R at the Lake! Thanks for the memorable visit!

Well, we loved our stay. Right on the lake,enjoyed the 1 mile walk to silver lake beach. Luckily, it wasn’t too hot no AC, but they have fans. We enjoyed the location and the home. We would stay here again.

Perfect weekend getway
We had a nice little week-end getaway with my husband and 4 year old daughter. The place was perfect and the cabin is very clean with everything you need. One thing is that there is no phone, internet reception at the cabin, but if that doesn't bother you, this is the perfect place to relax and spend time with your family.

Weekend getaway.
This was a nice secluded spot. We came up for a Raptor event at Silver Lake, which was just a few minute drive away yet just far enough away to be peaceful. Opening the windows at night to hear the waves crashing on the beach was so relaxing. We would stay here again. The hosts were very nice. We loved the thoughtful touches. Roar!

Fantastic view with a tranquil atmosphere
We stayed here as a last minute trip due to construction at our hunting camp. We enjoyed being so close to Lake Michigan, the supplied firewood, and the fantastic location. Accommodations were everything we needed and the ability to be unplugged was great. Very nice touch with the s’mores. As adults we enjoyed them!

Cute cottage
We enjoyed our stay and the views and sunsets on Lake Michigan. It was a cozy, cute cottage. The only negative was that we didn’t realize that the tv’s were only to watch DVD’s. There was also a grill but it was not listed in the amenities. We enjoyed walking to the Silver Lake State Park area and watching the off road vehicles on the sand dunes.

Great Stay!
We had a great time. The house was extremely clean, and the campfire goodies were a great addition! The view was spectacular. For anyone who wants a mix of trails, biking, etc, but still wants to enjoy going into town for dinner/entertainment, this is a great location. Would definitely stay there in the future.

Cottage on Lake Michigan
The property is very nice. We loved the knotty pine through out the house and the view is incredible. There is no WiFi or phone service at all which I didn’t realize when booking. It was fine as we were doing other things in town most of the time but it would of been nice to be able to google things to do in the area, weather ect. The only big downfall was the fruit flies. They were awful. We only ate one time at the house and that was food we brought from town, no way could we cook with the amount of them. The owners were trying to get them under control with little traps everywhere but they weren’t working. Other than that the place was very clean and a nice place to relax and enjoy the views.

Our family of four enjoyed our stay very much! No internet or cell phone coverage allowed us to detach from the outside world, and focus on family. The view from the back was so nice, and although the home was quaint, we felt very comfortable. There are tons of DVDs to watch.
