About this property

Family Owned Cottage Over Looking Lake Michigan

Katie's Cottage has been a family run rental property for generations and we hope to continue to welcome families to our property for generations to come. Come and relax on our back deck while listening to the crashing of the waves below and watch the boats pass you by. Enjoy an open floor plan fit for entertaining your whole family with wall to wall windows overlooking the lake. We are tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown and still a quick jump to all the entertainment.

A lovely lakeside idyll
If anything this cottage is prettier than it appears in the listing. Beautifully appointed, in a lovely spot, right on the lake, and the property manager was very accessible and helpful. The area is full of riches. I hope to be back!

It’s a family tradition
We love coming to Katie’s for a long summer weekend! The house is cozy with a well stocked kitchen. Beautiful view from a large deck with a charcoal grill. Our favorite part is the amazing bonfires we have every night on the private beach!

Family vacation
This was our second time staying at Katie's Cottage and have already planned to stay in 2024!! We love the quiet, peaceful area. Just a short drive down the road has many fun things to see and do, but we enjoy the deck, yard and beach!

About the host

Hosted by House flooring

Host profile image
My family has been running a rental business on this lot for three generations. We have opened our doors as a way for families to get away from it all and to soak up the sun and relax by the water. I grew up in South Haven and love the idea of families building memories on our shores. We want our cottage to be a home away from home for you. A place to let your worries and stress from the world fade away.

Why they chose this property

Since we are a family run business we cater to families. We treat you as though you are a part of our family and not just someone staying in our cottage. We go above and beyond to make sure you feel right at home with us. We have been hosting some of the same families years after years that we truly believe they are part of our family. One of the things that we love about our cottage is that it is tucked away from it all that there are no distractions but not far away enough that you are too distant from all that the Haven has to offer.

What makes this property unique

We are right on the beach and so you don't have to worry about the hassle of finding a parking spot, paying to park, or that exhausting walk back to your car. You have easy access to your own beach lot so you can go down for a quick morning swim, go sight seeing during the day, and have a bonfire after dinner.
