About this property

Cozy Cottage with GUEST HOUSE, 15 minute walk to the beach and Pet Friendly.

This cottage is set up for a perfect vacation for a small group in all seasons! The kitchen is top-notch, well stocked and fun to cook in. The hardwood floors bring the woods inside and the gas fireplace in the winter makes it easy to curl up with a book. Each room has its own bathroom; the cottage is designed with privacy in mind. Unusual for a home in the woods to have a front lawn, but we do, which we use for games.


The backyard is fenced in: there is a grill and a portable campfire, an outdoor dining table and outdoor furniture. The snow in Michiana Shores is beautiful in the winter. The trees are somber in the fall. This is an all year get-a-away whether you are looking for beach time, cross-country skiing, canoeing, hiking or tennis.

We have a new guest house that has two bedrooms and a full bath; perfect for a family with children. There is an additional fee.

About the host

Hosted by catherine grossman

Host profile image
I have spent nearly every summer somewhere along the Lake Michigan shore. My husband grew up near a lake in Up-State New York. We both are community college professors who believe people need to get away from their daily work and come to the woods. We are amateur naturalists, and enjoy learning about the dunal woods and its inhabitants.

Why they chose this property

We have always wanted a cottage within driving distance from our home down state. Michigana Shores is beautiful. We like the quiet, the proximity to the lake, the tennis courts nearby and places to cross-country ski. We like that there is canoeing and hiking nearby. We like what we have come to call "cottage time" that we enter once we arrive.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this little cottage because of it's location, our neighbors and because this cottage had been well taken-care of. The wood floors glow, the modern kitchen and baths are nicer than what we have at home, the comfortable beds, the nights that cool down in the summer, and the snow in the winter!
