About this property

Secluded Lake Michigan Sanctuary with Pristine White-Sand Beach and Woods

The Cottage is a beautifully decorated French Country bungalow located on 7.5 acres of a privately owned compound.

Miles of Lake Michigan sand is simply steps away through a walk of the stunning gardens.

Find yourself on the shores of Lake Michigan with 300 feet of Pristine White-Sand Private Shoreline.

Visitors often remark that it is as vast and magnificent as any ocean.

Beach chairs and sand toys are available for a relaxing day of play in the sand.

The property is home to 5 acres of wooded hiking trails through your own secluded cedar forest. No matter the season the adventure of exploring the woods is a highlight for visitors.

In the Spring, Summer and Fall, the fabulous outdoor grill is available for your cooking pleasure with plenty of outdoor seating. Inside the cottage, a coffee maker, mini fridge and toaster allow the conveniences of any hotel - but with luxury, views and comfort that is unsurpassed.

Located north of Milwaukee and just 15 minutes south of historic Kohler, there is plenty to do for those looking to stay busy. However, if you are looking to do absolutely nothing in a luxurious private setting than The Cottage is where you need to be.

As a romantic getaway, a charming stay for a girls weekend, or a family with children The Cottage at Casa del Lago is an ideal home away from home.

The alternate name for Casa del Lago is The Sanctuary, with good reason. This is a property like none other. The smell of cedar, the wind in the trees, the lapping and/or roar of the waves, with the morning birds, will transform your body and mind during your stay.

We're pretty sure your first time visiting The Cottage at Casa del Lago will not be your last... Come and find out for yourself!

Extremely peaceful and beautiful location. We didn’t get a lot of lake time due to rain and (sadly) some big flies on the beach during the bright windless day, but we loved the firepit and the sound of the waves. Everything was great in the cabin.

Excellent stay at the beach

We stayed two nights in early August. The cottage was clean and well maintained. I had to reset the regulator valve on the grill, but that only took a couple of minutes. The 2nd sleeping area isn’t really a bedroom, but it worked well for our two kids.Overall it was a wonderful stay.

It was peaceful and secluded. George was friendly and helpful. The cottage might seem outdated to some but the Victorian furniture is beautiful. The private beach was amazing as well as the beach fire pit.

Beautiful property, loved the beach

My wife and I stayed at the Cottage for a weekend. The beach on the property is beautiful. The sand is perfect. We didn't see anyone else on the beach. The Cottage is nice. The furnishings are very classy. We found this was a much better option than staying at the American Club.

About the host

Hosted by George

Host profile image
I’ve been in the creative field since my early days in business, whether conceptualizing and creating commercials for some of America’s iconic brands, to designing, remodeling and decorating exceptional properties.

Having searched for the perfect lake front property for what seemed like an eternity, I came across this property, I knew this was it, and was inspired to call it Casa del Lago. We developed a theme of construction and design specific to each of the property’s 5 buildings and cohesively tied them together to blend with the natural environment of the sandy beach and the beautiful scented cedar forest.

Why they chose this property

When we first began looking for a lake house, I was skeptical—and more than a little hesitant. With two young children at the time and already plenty of upkeep at our home in Chicago, the thought of taking on another property felt less like an escape and more like an added burden.

We searched throughout Indiana and Michigan but never found a place that truly felt right. Then, while visiting friends in Kohler, we decided to take a slight detour and look at a few homes along Lake Michigan on the way.

The moment we arrived here, everything changed. We fell in love with the privacy, the untouched beach, the surrounding forest, and the peacefulness of the setting. It felt secluded yet welcoming—like a world of its own. What I had once imagined would be another responsibility suddenly felt like an extraordinary place where our family could slow down, reconnect, and create memories for generations to come.

I could hardly contain myself when walking the grounds with the realtor - it was more than we could have ever imagined. As I told my husband then, do not waste another minute looking elsewhere, this was the place.

You will undoubtedly understand why when you come. Casa del Lago has been a blessing to our family and one we are thankful to be able to share with you.

What makes this property unique

Starting with 300 feet of Pristine White-Sand frontage along Lake Michigan.

You won't leave the same as you arrived. It is impossible to walk the property, breath in the cedar scented air and hear the constant lapping of the lake and not be changed.

You will sleep deeper, feel calmer and find that that the evasive answers to your questions are answered in the space that can only be described as a sanctuary
