About this property

Charming Cottage with Fire Pit Near Warren Dunes State Park

Welcome to Breezy Knoll Cottage!

Come with family or a few friends to stay at our attractive cottage nestled the woods at the end of a private road. You'll love waking up and walking or biking to nearby Warren Dunes State Park. Spend some time at Captain Mike's Fun Park with the kids, or go shopping in one of the unique local antique shops. There are amazing u-pick farms to visit nearby if you wish to sample local blueberries, peaches, apples, and more.

It is not unusual to see a mother deer with her baby walking across the front lawn early in the morning. There are also countless squirrels, rabbits, and birds. We have even seen dozens of wild turkeys strolling across the property in a big group.

You can end your days by roasting marshmallows and hot dogs over the fire pit or watching the sunset at the beach. You'll be glad you chose to stay with us! Please contact me for additional information.

Conveniently located near I-94.

Long Weekend Getaway

This property was perfect for meeting up with friends for a long liesurely weekend of cooking out, playing card games, walking through Warren Dunes State Park, and playing with our dog on the beach. The house was a clean turnkey rental with a fully stocked kitchen of cookware and dishes. We enjoyed the local meat market and produce stands. The house is surrouned by woods with a fabulous patio to cookout and relax with friends. We would definitely rent this property again.

Our stay at Breezy Knolls Cottage

Beautiful little cottage, just as described. Was very clean, nice yard, even had a couple of white tailed visitors. Had everything we needed for great girls weekend. Owners were very easy to work with and would recommend this cute place to anyone. Hope to go back some day. Almost directly accross the street from Warren Dunes. Meijer just up the road for all your grocery needs.

Nice little cottage

We stayed here 7 years ago with our two previous dogs so decided our dogs now needed the joy of going also. Love it that we can take our dogs with us. Our host Sara assured us our dogs were welcomed even though they were a wee bit above the 50 pounds. This cottage is located within 2 minutes of Warren Dunes State Park so easy to hit the trails for walks. We did take rugs to put down for the dogs-we remembered from our time before. Just a great trip and the pups loved it.

Sawyer, MI cabin in the woods near Warren Dunes SP

Perfect place for my family of 5 and furbaby! Tucked away in the woods, quiet and private, great fire pit, amenities were great and owners very responsive to our very minor issues we had during our stay. Two minutes from Warren Dunes State Park and about 35 minutes from Indiana Dunes National Park, would recommend to families with pups! Thanks to Chad for coming over immediately when issues arose.

Dunes Girls Trip

This stay was so perfect! My mom, a friend, and I all got together right before school started up just to get a break from our busy schedules and get a breather together. We spent a whole day at the dunes and another downtown New Buffalo--the location was perfect! We were able to drive easily to New Buffalo straight down the main road, and had the dunes themselves almost directly across the street. The house was so nice and comfortable and, with the addition of having grocery stores conveniently nearby, we were able to enjoy lowkey nights cooking dinner and watching movies. It was the perfect stay!

Uncomfortable beds.

No frills cabin. The property itself could use some upkeep inside and out. An overall gloomy dark, damp/moldy feel. Secluded lot surrounded by trees. Great proximity to Warren dunes state park & nearby quaint towns. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. No real mattress- just two thick memory foam toppers stacked on top of each other. No starter wood was provided for the fire pit- this would’ve been nice. We left the night before checkout to avoid having to sleep in the uncomfortable beds.

Wonderful stay

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this cottage. The yard and swing were great, it had equipment in the kitchen so we could cook every day, the living and sleeping areas were comfortable. It was so very close to attractions; we went to the beach, the fun park, and more. We will likely be back for another vacation here.

New Year’s Family Day

This is the cutest lil house, located super close to Lake Michigan. We had our doggo with us and this was perfect for him. House is back in the woods , on about a cleared half acre with plenty of room for us to walk him. The house itself is older but well maintained and clean with awesome amenities including the best bed we’ve ever slept on at a VRBO. Clean bamboo sheets just like home. Lots of kitchen utensils and plenty of linens. Washer and dryer. Truly loved it here and would definitely recommend. So homey. And very reasonably priced. Thank you for renting to us an obviously well loved cottage.
