About this cottage rental
Welcome to our modern guest home on Youngren Road. As part of a 2023 custom build, this 600 sq ft single-level guest home is thoughtfully designed as an efficient Harbor Country home base for a couple or young family. The property is set well back from the road and surrounded by 20 acres of trees, with Cherry Beach on Lake Michigan less than a mile away.
The open-concept living area is built around floor-to-ceiling windows that pull the woods inside, making the space feel brighter and larger than its square footage suggests. A natural stone wood-burning fireplace runs floor to ceiling and makes it easy to settle in on cool evenings. The design is modern and clean with natural materials throughout. The main bedroom offers a queen bed while the second bedroom includes a bunk bed with additional trundle to sleep up to 3 for families with young children.
Step outside to a patio strung with lights, a charcoal grill for summer cookouts, and a firepit for the kind of evening you came to Harbor Country for. From here, walking trails wind through the surrounding twenty acres of woods — perfect for a morning hike or a quiet afternoon exploring.
Walk five minutes on foot to the paved walking and biking path along Red Arrow Highway that connects you north to Bridgman and south into New Buffalo, with coffee shops, craft breweries, and local restaurants all reachable without starting the car. Warren Dunes State Park, over twenty wineries and tasting rooms, the Journeyman Distillery, seasonal farmers markets, art galleries, boutique shopping, and live music at the Acorn Theater are all a short drive away.
Modern, cozy, and wrapped in nature — this is Harbor Country the way it's meant to be experienced.
Youngren Guest Home is on the same grounds with one large main home and one additional cottage. If you're looking for space for additional guests, keep reading!
Traveling with another couple or family? Our charming studio cottage sits just next door on the same wooded property, offering a separate private space with its own kitchen, patio, and easy walk to Cherry Beach. Ask us about booking both homes together.
Please Note: An exterior security camera is positioned at the entrance for property safety. It records activity at the entry door only. No other cameras are used anywhere inside or outside the property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property for our 5 day stay as a family of 4. Communication was timely and not overbearing. The grounds are gorgeous - wildlife sightings and fragrant garden are highlights. The cabin is beautifully designed thoughtfully appointed, and very clean. Having access to laundry facilities was so helpful! The unit is a little smaller than I expected from photos, and only one small bathroom for 4 people was slightly challenging, but an extra mirror somewhere else would be really helpful. The outdoor shower wasn’t working during our stay, which was a slight bummer, but not a deal breaker. Lots of thoughtful touches like a local jam and coffee sample, kitchen cabinets stocked with essentials and games/puzzles, and free firewood for the fire pit. This was the perfect home base for our exploration of the area, which has so much to see and do. Check out the many wineries, Lavender Bliss farm, Shuler Dairy tour, downtown Three Oaks, New Buffalo and St Joseph/Silver Beach. Cherry Beach was an easy 15 min walk and beautiful. We absolutely loved this first trip to the area and will be back in years to come. Thank you for sharing your peaceful oasis with us!

Our stay was great! The property had all of the necessities needed for cooking. It was very clean, comfortable, and private. We walked to Cherry Beach a couple of times which was a nice option to have due to limited parking. Being right off of Red Arrow Highway is very convenient to get anyplace you would want to go. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting the area.

This is so close to Cherry Beach (which was beautiful) and the whole cabin was clean and very cute. I saw turkeys, hummingbirds and a mama deer nursing her babies! I would definitely stay here again! (I also felt very safe in this location)
