About this property

Little Blue Cottage - wooded getaway, near beaches and towns

Our cozy, family-friendly, newly remodeled cottage is a stone's throw from Lake Michigan and near Harbor Shores. Great location for peace and quiet, surrounded by trees on a large wooded property and isolated from any nearby neighbors. It's close to beautiful downtown St. Joseph, but also not far at all to South Haven and Coloma. Beaches, boating, several golf courses and great dining are all closeby. Home is quiet, private, clean and cozy.

Vaulted ceilings over the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Two general sleeping areas: one we like to call the "Lake Suite" with 3 beds, study area and sink, and the other slepping area contains 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. Reclaimed wood can be found throughout the cottage from the former fruit stand that once was on the property. Everything here is brand new including the kitchen, bathroom, flooring and carpet, windows, paint and trim. We wanted to create a very comfortable space that would provide a cozy experience for you to relax and unwind all year. Check out the photos, we think you'll enjoy it!!

Rural wooded setting across the street from Lake Michigan. Closest neighbors are over 300' away. 8 minute drive from St Joseph and 20 minute drive from South Haven.

The exterior driveway is monitored by exterior camera for security and safety.

Cozy blue cottage is truly cozy

Clean, beautiful and with every small detail taken care of - Cozy blue cottage was truly a cozy relaxing experience for us. Nice layout, inviting back patio and large backyard with fire pit. Ideal location - straight shot of 8-10 min to beaches/parks and St. Joseph area restaurants with a very little traffic to bother you even in the busy vacation season. Benton harbor and South Haven attractions are also close by (15-20 min drive). We are happy that we picked blue cottage for our 3 nights, 4 days August vacation.

Fun weekend!

We had a family wedding in St. Joseph and this place was the perfect house to rent for the weekend. House was super clean and had all the amenities we were looking for. Very close to a public beach and felt so secluded from all the other homes in the area! Would go back again!

About the host

Hosted by Kira Ho

Welcome to our Little Blue Cottage!

Over the years, we found our families often in Southwest Michigan and so
when we had the opportunity to find a cottage we loved we knew that it
would be something our guests would love as well!
We know first-hand traveling with kids isn't always easy, so we try to
accommodate the littlest of guests. We hope that the space we've provided
for you is a cozy and comfortable setting for you to make memories with
your friends and family!
