About this cottage rental
No animals - no children (what an awful way to open this - but please read on for a further explanation)
Escape to the enchanting embrace of our charming cottage, nestled in the tamaracks and set along the banks of the Betsie River. Walk the 14-acre estate grounds full of Northern Michigan natural beauty. This quiet escape features wildlife sightings, a covered front porch, riverfront access - all a close drive to beaches, and charming towns.
Ideal as an intimate escape for two; offering a peaceful ambiance. Located just a mile from the golf course, dining, spa, and art park of Crystal Mountain, it provides the ideal blend of adventure and relaxation. Whether you choose to explore the nearby beaches, wineries, or immerse yourself in the local charming beach communities our cottage serves as the perfect home base.
Kindly Note: Due to the unique nature of the property and home, we’re unable to accommodate children or animals. This rental is located on our private residence where we raise and care for breeding Corgis. Due to the risk of communicable diseases such as Brucellosis, no animals of any kind can be permitted on the property under any circumstance. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause - and please know this is not a decision we take lightly.
Idyllic Surroundings and Nearby Gems

A perfect blend of proximity to adventure and serene seclusion, our riverside cottage invites you to create cherished memories in a setting that captures the essence of a romantic escape. Book your stay now and experience the magic of this idyllic retreat!
This cottage is located next to our home and includes a 5 corgi greeting committee. While they do not have access to the cottage - they do have access to the yard. This is also why kindly ask for no pets.
**Note : To make your stay special - we decorate the cottage seasonally. Photos may not represent current decor

Oh, we loved this so much! Perfect accommodations for us. The location was near the venues we were visiting for a wedding. We lived that it was nestled in an area away from the road. We loved the tranquil views from front porch and being greeted by the corgis.

Beautiful place, Ellen was helpful and gracious. The Corgis were an added bonus; however, the home is listed as riverside an it is not. The home is situated near the river but it's a few minute walk to get to it. It can't be seen from the house. Other than that, it's a really nice place.
