Girls week at lake cottage!

This cottage is in such a neat neighborhood SO close to Lake Michigan. The beach is really nice & they even have a wagon loaded for you to take to the beach. Super cute place & very comfy. This is a duplex type cottage so you do hear your neighbors who has a dog that occasionally makes quick barks. Kitchen is functional but bring your own spices & condiments. Would stay here again!

Great location, smelly carpets

Location was perfect, close to the beach. The house overall was ok, but the carpets in the bedroom smelled of mildew and it was difficult to breath. The beds were also very uncomfortable. The rest of the house was clean.

Great mini vacay

We stayed here with our 2 young boys and it is a great location. Beach is a short walk and is very private. The place is very clean and has all you need including beach chairs and umbrella. Loved being to use the shower to keep the sand to a minium inside. Would definitely come again.
