Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Past Guests:
"This listing was tucked off the road with private beach access, great amenities outside, modern looks, and cozy! We had everything we needed in the house and outside the house. We traveled with children and adults, having something to entertain everyone. We experienced views of Lake Michigan, wildlife, climbed the stairs to look out over the Bluffs, and checked out 2 other local lakes during our stay. A hidden gem for certain!" -Allison-
"Kendra’s cottage was lovely. Everything was new and well laid out. We appreciated the extras (coffee, beach towels, beach supplies, games…). The loft was a big hit with my 9-year-old, and we all loved the beach (just save some energy to climb back up the stairs). Very close to Michigan’s Adventure too. We would stay again!" -Neveen-
"Kendra is an excellent host and the property was incredible. It was really nice being able to have the short walk down to the beach and Kendra has all the amenities to make your stay very comfortable. I would happily come back again to the same property." - Jeff-
