About this property

SPRING & FALL DISCOUNT! One Bedroom Cottage with Private Beach!

***SPRING & FALL DISCOUNT! When you rent 2 or more nights at Lat's Cottages, you get a third night FREE! This is on top of our already discounted off season rates! Offer good September through May (not valid Memorial Day through Labor Day weekends).

We are located on the relaxing shores of Lake Michigan in Lakeside MI, just five miles north of the Indiana border.

Our cottages and Lake House are set on a 2 acre fenced in and landscaped lot with 200 feet of sandy private beach. This VRBO listing is for Cottage #2.

This cottage has one bedroom and can sleep 2 guests. There is a queen bed in the bedroom and a foldout futon couch in the living room. In addition, this cottage includes a private picnic table, lawn furniture, and grill.

On the beach we have a large fire pit, picnic table, beach chairs and umbrellas, assorted beach toys, as well as 4 kayaks and two row boats for our guests to use.

A total of 17 guests can be supported between all of our units. Perfect for family reunions or large get togethers! We have been providing memorable vacations to families for over 60 years.

***Please note our property is set on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. We have approximately 100 stone steps from the yard to the beach. This can be difficult for guests with certain health and joint problems. We do have multiple rest benches along the stairs to take rest breaks.***
