About this property
Charming cottage on Lake Michigan, nestled in the woods
Welcome to your home on Lake Michigan! This darling family cottage right on the big lake is located in the desirable Little Point Sable Association about 2 miles south of the Little Point Sable Lighthouse.
On the main level there are 2 bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one can be made up as a king or two twins), 2 full bathrooms, living room, kitchen, dining area, and a wonderful screened porch that runs the length of the cottage overlooking Lake Michigan. A mini-split AC unit in the kitchen cools the living area. Downstairs, accessible via a circular stairway inside, or an outdoor stairway, are 2 more bedrooms, a powder room, and laundry.
There is a Roku TV on which you may stream your own subscriptions. No cable or satellite TV service. Excellent fiber optic internet.
Enjoy quality time with your family on the large patio with a gorgeous view of the lake. You can live out there on the large sectional and dining table and chairs. The association offers, pickleball courts, crolf course (a crude form of golf fun for the whole family), and walking the miles of trails in the nature preserve.
As you may be aware, Lake Michigan's water level was at a record high in 2020, causing much erosion. We are thrilled that the lake level has dropped dramatically and we have a gorgeous beach! There is a path down a very small dune to the beach and water.
The family that owns this property lives next door, and they have several family members with cottages in the area, as well. Occasionally some of the family may be on the beach in front of your cottage, or using the shared firepit. They are a friendly bunch and there is room for all!
The cottage is located between Silver Lake and Stony Lake, just west of Shelby. The famous Silver Lake Sand Dunes are 10 minutes away. This area is known as a wonderful summer playground ... golf, boating, tubing, waterskiing, and more are just minutes away. This is a rural area; fine dining and high-end shopping are 40 minutes away.
