Lake Michigan Retreat

Open air freedom right on the shores of Lake Michigan. This beautiful property is in Cedar River, MI. The interior is all exposed wood beams with sliding glass doors along the whole lake side of the house. Mid century charm with classic beauty. Great fishing boating and swimming. Perfect for the whole family.

What a view
The Lake Michigan view is even better than it appears in the listing photos. We would definitely stay again. We brought along lawn chairs and spent a lot of time outside at the lakeside. Nice firepit to roast hot dogs and make s'mores. Bring along water shoes to really enjoy the shallow lake entry.

A remote gem by the Lake
We were looking for a place to power down and go off the grid and this place was perfect! Next time we'll bring more yard games, the lawn space is vast, so is the Lake and the shoreline, just amazing to watch the sky and lake change over a few late summer days there. Fire next to the water nightly, with the meditative constant sound of the waves lapping the shore were real highlights.. some fun forest area for kids to explore too! For a nature-loving, somewhat rustic up north experience with amazing views, this is the place .

A real getaway!
We enjoyed a beautiful view of the bay from all rooms in the house! Our kids enjoyed playing in the large yard and spent most of their time swimming while the adults enjoyed “adulting” on the nice, large walk round patio. Very quiet with no neighbors in sight. Internet connection was solid. The only drawback was the zebra muscles on the majority of the beach. That being said it don’t slow the kids down at all. We had a really good time in the cottage and will definitely be back!

Great time!
Beautiful, private and both the house and yard are set up for entertaining. Needs some updates, but stocked with all the necessities and some beach extras that I'm relieved were on hand. I would definitely come back! We very much enjoyed ourselves!

A House on the Bay
It is a very comfortable and relaxing place. We loved the fact that there was usable cookware. The temps in the evening were cooler, so we turned the A/C off and opened the sliders. The absolute best part of this house is that it is on the Lake (technically the Bay) Sitting near the water was absolutely mesmerizing. A very good place.

Disappointed. Returned home. Received refund.
Our family was very disappointed by the condition of the cottage on arrival, and decided to return home. The owner graciously provided a refund. The lakefront setting holds a lot of promise for nature lovers.

Watch wildlife while sitting on the couch
We are familiar with the area because we frequently tent camp at Wells state park nearby. That may be a thing of the past, as this location is a spoiler. All of the joys of nature with none of the unexpected surprises of a tent.

Great place!
Cozy place on a beautiful, quiet spot. Lovely sunrises, short walks to the water, great rooms for three kids/two adults. Clean with nice amenities throughout the house. Would stay again.
