About this property

On Lake Michigan, Bright,Light & Airy Summer Haven, Gorgeous Views,Sand Beach

Light filled, very clean and bright vintage cottage on Lake Michigan with a wide beach has all you need for a relaxing getaway, available May through October. We rent by the week, from Saturday to Saturday during June, July and August, and for shorter stays in the fall, through October. Enter through landscaped grounds to open concept living and eating area with vaulted ceiling. Look out from private deck to Lake Michigan view. Equipped kitchen with fridge, micro, stove, and utensils. Breakfast bar and small round dining table, plus outdoor dining on the deck. Barbeque grill, flowers, and hummingbirds abound.
Two small bedrooms: main bedroom with queen-size captain's bed. Second bedroom is dressing and lounge area which could be used for an additional one-person bedroom if needed. Bathroom with shower next to main bedroom.
Clean, cottage feel with lots of windows, light, and views of the Lake. Bedding and plenty of towels for bath and kitchen.
Guests always comment on the beautiful bluff over looking the lake. You can see for miles, watch the sunset and clouds, on a serene lawn with adirondack chairs, and lounge chairs. This is your front yard!
Cottage is set back off the road, and landscaping and fencing runs the full length of either side of the property for privacy.

My husband and I are an active couple who love to bicycle, sail, and take care of our wonderful spot on Lake Michigan. Mort enjoys getting people out on the water on our sailboat with our charter company Sweetwater Sailing of Saugatuck, 616-566-8386. Visit sweetwatersailing.com and read about it. We have lived here since 1976 and our guests at Summer Haven cottage are so important to us. We are happy to give you recommendations for dining and activities, and share our favorite places with you. It is fun to have people come and fall in love with our wonderful area. We are here to help if you need it, and we respect your privacy. Our house and the cottage you are reading about here are spaced far apart with the plenty of privacy at each. The property in several acres of space. The magic of being right on the lake and enjoying the light changes and reflections on the water during the day, and the stars and the moon at night makes this location such a favorite place to be.

Why they chose this property

We enjoy the area - this has been our home for 40 years. Saugatuck is not the typical small town. It is full of art galleries, activities at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts, live music, a brew pub, wonderful history museum, beautiful surroundings. We are close to all the action yet completely peaceful and private and right on the beach.
The nice big grassy garden and bluff overlooking the lake are so welcoming during the long summer days and evenings, guests enjoy spending lots of time there, relaxing on the lake.

What makes this property unique

Lovely lakeshore location offers direct access to your own private bluff view of Lake Michigan. Enjoy lounging on your private beach, long beach walks, and spectacular sunsets, and yes, moonsets! Hop in the car for a quick drive to Saugatuck State Park, shopping, coffee shops,great restaurants, art galleries, wineries, brew pub, live music and theater, and the great variety of planned events throughout the summer and fall in both Saugatuck and Douglas. There are many interesting communities to visit nearby, beautiful country roads to expore. If you love bicycle paths, they abound in the area.
