About this cottage rental

Welcome to your home on Lake Michigan! This darling family cottage right on the big lake is located in the desirable Little Point Sable Association about 2 miles south of the Little Point Sable Lighthouse.

On the main level there are 2 bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one can be made up as a king or two twins), 2 full bathrooms, living room, kitchen, dining area, and a wonderful screened porch that runs the length of the cottage overlooking Lake Michigan. A mini-split AC unit in the kitchen cools the living area. Downstairs, accessible via a circular stairway inside, or an outdoor stairway, are 2 more bedrooms, a powder room, and laundry.

There is a Roku TV on which you may stream your own subscriptions. No cable or satellite TV service. Excellent fiber optic internet.

Enjoy quality time with your family on the large patio with a gorgeous view of the lake. You can live out there on the large sectional and dining table and chairs. The association offers, pickleball courts, crolf course (a crude form of golf fun for the whole family), and walking the miles of trails in the nature preserve.

As you may be aware, Lake Michigan's water level was at a record high in 2020, causing much erosion. We are thrilled that the lake level has dropped dramatically and we have a gorgeous beach! There is a path down a very small dune to the beach and water.

The family that owns this property lives next door, and they have several family members with cottages in the area, as well. Occasionally some of the family may be on the beach in front of your cottage, or using the shared firepit. They are a friendly bunch and there is room for all!

The cottage is located between Silver Lake and Stony Lake, just west of Shelby. The famous Silver Lake Sand Dunes are 10 minutes away. This area is known as a wonderful summer playground ... golf, boating, tubing, waterskiing, and more are just minutes away. This is a rural area; fine dining and high-end shopping are 40 minutes away.

This is a great cottage for a family to stay at to spend time on the beach at Lake Michigan! The bedroom and bathroom setup worked well for our group and the kitchen had everything needed to cook meals. Note that you do need to bring toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, sponges, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, washer detergent, and trash bags with you. The enclosed porch is a nice relaxation area and there are books, puzzles, and games to enjoy. There is also a firepit on the beach to use, and there are roasting sticks provided, which made making s'mores easy. The property manager, Laura, is very communicative and helpful, and even left a cherry strudel for us in the fridge as a welcome gift. :) We had a couple of maintenance issues while we were there (the cottage had recently opened for the summer), which were fixed as soon as possible, with good communication. We enjoyed a very relaxing stay and would definitely stay there again.

The family and I had a great time at this property. We really enjoyed how close to the beach it was. We did get a little confused on the parking situation but once we figured that out we were good to go! I have never been so relaxed listening to the waves crash at night. The deck was a huge plus for us as we were able to invite family that still lives in the area to celebrate birthdays. I would stay here again.

Laura was a pleasure to work with, she was very helpful with all our requests. The view was beautiful, and it was a place to stay. Very kid friendly provided a lot of games, toys, etc. for the kids if the weather was bad. The cleanliness of the property was very disappointing especially during this time. Pretzels were found in the couch, windows had prints, bugs were everywhere in the house(dead centipede stuck to a hand towel), some of the hand towels that were hung up appeared to be used, just not happy at all with the cleanliness. The only tub did not work along with that shower. The grill was very touchy on whether it decided to heat or not. My bad on not seeing this in the listing, but no air conditioning.
