Cottage # 5 Little Yellow Cottages

Little Yellow Cottages consist of a block of six one and two bedroom cottages, located in Downtown Port Austin. They are perfect for those that desire activity and comfort. Across the street, you will find the Port Austin marina, beach, and pier, as well as Port Austin’s seasonal Farmer’s Market. The cottages themselves are ideal for both small groups requiring just one cottage, or larger groups needing more room, yet seeking the privacy afforded by the individual cottages.

Each of the Little Yellow Cottages feature a screened in porch with seating, a living room with TV & soft seating, a full kitchen (plates, bowls, utensils, pots/pans, etc.), air conditioning and/or heat, and a private bath with shower. Cottages are available in both one bedroom and two bedroom configurations and can accommodate up to six guests. Outdoors you will find a fire pit, outdoor grills, and picnic tables and chairs. You are welcome to enjoy the space outback, as well as your own private patio with outdoor seating. You can purchase wood, charcoal, and other essentials for your outdoor fun just a few minutes from your cottage.

The two bedroom cottages each have one bedroom with a queen or full size bed, and one bedroom with two twins. The one bedroom and studio cottages have 1 queen sized bed and 1 queen sized sofa bed.

Quaint cottage vacation
We loved our stay at the little yellow cottages. The town was a small village by the lake with little shops and good places to eat. The cottage is a perfect walking distance to the beach and everything else in town. It was clean and stocked with the necessities for cooking. We are a family of 6 with 4 teens so it was definitely small for us but it was cozy. We spent time outside and with the small space it made us reconnect in ways we haven’t in a long time. :) Communication with the Guest family was amazing. They were friendly and very accommodating. The cottage is on a property with 5 other cottages so it would be perfect for a large group to rent more cottages to vacation together. The backyard is a community space with a gas and charcoal grill, picnic tables and a fire pit. We had the space to ourselves since there were no other renters the week we stayed. outside was stocked with all you needed for cooking and the fire pit had wood. The kitchen was a little challenging to make meals for our large family bc of the size but we got creative and made it work. Port Austin Kayak is a fun place to check out and is walking distance from the cottage. Adventure Golf is a beautiful mini golf course just 10 min down the road on the way to Caseville. Grindstone general store is an awesome place for ice cream with giant scoops. 10 min drive out of town but worth it! Farmers market is on Saturdays. Overall we had a great time!
