About this property
Cozy Cottage on Gravel Lake, WMU, Wine Trail, Kayaks
Your fall color vacation is ready for you at our charming cottage in Lawton MI. 3 bedrooms, including 2 queen beds, 1 bunk bed and a sleeper sofa makes this a retreat perfect for families or groups of friends. The Southwest Michigan Wine Trail runs right through our backyard and St Julian is a short 20 minute drive! We include 2 kayaks and a paddleboard for your enjoyment. If you’re planning to bring your boat you may tie up to our pier! We are right next door to the public access for easy unloading and loading of your boat. If you would like to use our pontoon let us know and we can make the arrangements. We still get a lot of beautiful weather in September and October. With the pontoon boat and a cozy blanket you can take in all the views the lake has to offer! We have a huge patio for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. We supply beach/swimming floats & chairs, toys, games and activities for the kids. We are 2 hours north east of Chicago and 2.5 hours south west of Detroit. Lake Michigan beaches are 45 minutes away! The grape vineyards smell amazing in Sept-Oct along with the beautiful changing leaves.
