Welcome to where relaxation meets convenience! This cute small cottage is the perfect choice for a friends' trip, couples retreat, or family vacation. Walk only 1,000 feet to reach Sunset Lane Association Beach, a private association beach for the immediate neighborhood only that also allows dogs.

Located in the cute lakefront town of Lakeside, this ground-floor home is surrounded by beautiful trees and lush nature, offering a true 'get away from it all' feeling. Inside, an open floor plan seamlessly combines the living and dining areas and the well-appointed kitchenette. Snuggle up on any of the sofas by the wood-burning fireplace and stream a favorite movie or series on the smart TV. When mealtime comes around, the kitchenette will have your back with all the essential appliances needed to whip up everything, from full-course meals to quick snacks on the go. You can choose to dine indoors or delight yourself with nature in the outdoor dining area on the patio. There is a beautiful screened porch with comfortable seats that leads to the patio.

Great house for four adults and one dog. Super clean, easy access, kitchen updated with great appliances, including dishwasher. Kitchen well stocked, minimal spices, etc. Comfortable queen beds- Jack n’ Jill bathroom with only tub/shower being shared space. Comfortable living spaces with porch looking into nice wooded area where deer where seen. Two window air conditioners maintained the house comfortably in 90 degree weather. Lake Michigan only 5-10 minute walk - typical Michigan trail with tree roots occasionally over the dune to set of 70ish steps with rest landing built in. Beach equipment provided was in great condition- 4 backpack chairs, umbrella, and beach towels. Close neighbors were all friendly. This is a gem for small groups.

It’s a cozy spot with ready beach access. Had an issue with the toilet which would not stop running, causing water to overflow.
