Enter your email here. The best comment renters can make is"we hope to return next year." And we do! Our family (grown children) enjoyed the comfortable attractive furnishings and all the amenities including a kitchen equipped w/everything 'vacationing cooks' could desire.
Having vacationed at Lake Michigan cottages all of our lives we are used to steps to the beach and these are conveniently spaced between landings. Perched on a wooded bluff overlooking the lake the cottage woodside deck offers morning sunshine for breakfast while the front lakeside deck has afternoon breezes and sunsets. The spectacular sunsets are best viewed from the sandy beach which is also great for sunning, swimming and walking.

We shared this home with close family friends and I have to admit it was one of the best vacations our family has had. It is a comfortable home with everything you need for a wonderful beach get-away. Secluded private beach, wonderful amenities, close to Traverse and Charlevoix for shopping and sight-seeing. We even did a day trip to Mackinac. If you run, the mornings were great for runs along the beach. The best part was that our kids loved it. Would definitely come back again. What you see is what you get plus more.

We found the home to be very well equipped and clean. It has beautiful views and a great beach. We enjoyed the secluded feeling we got from the homes setting. We also found the location between cities nice. We could go north or south to shop and eat There are many steps to get to the beach and spiral steps in the home leading to the basement, so make sure you are able to handle them. We really recommend running the de-hummidifier during your stay!
