About this property

Lake Michigan Views for Miles and Hot Tub Open in all Seasons!

We are excited to add another Lake Michigan cottage to our vacation rental portfolio- The Lighthouse. Built to resemble a lighthouse, the octagon shape facing the water provides stunning views from the master suite, living room, and dining room. Watch freighters and sailboats from inside the house, or from the amazing no-barrier deck. 69 steps lead down to your private beach. Prepare food and drinks in the newly remodeled and fully stocked gourmet kitchen designed for entertaining. A separate family room provides space to spread out. Three bedrooms each with private bath sleep up to 8 guests. A private basement bonus room has two futons and ping pong table.

Sunsets were incredible and the kitchen/house was the most well-stocked in all our years of travel. It was obvious the owners wanted us to have a great experience by their attention to detail and ample space for all. This was one of the best stays we’ve had, even in chilly weather. The house was spotless and we had zero issues with anything inside or out. Well maintained and we’d most definitely stay here again!

This is our second time staying here. We loved it so much last year it was an easy decision to reserve it again this year. The house has plenty of space and great views of the lake. It is stocked with everything you need - the kitchen has everything and there are plenty of extras if you need them like zip lock bags, cleaning supplies, garbage bags, laundry detergent. If you forget something - you’ll probably find it in the house. Carol is so responsive and helpful - she truly wants you to have a great experience.

The directions provided helped us find this treasure. The views were spectacular, the kitchen had everything we needed and more to make meals, we enjoyed the fireplace and the hot tub. We visited around the area, but mostly just relaxed and enjoyed family time - I don't think we turned the TV on once.

Great place for a family gathering

The house is very spacious, with lots of beds. Kitchen is well-stocked (we cooked Thanksgiving dinner there), and the lake view is amazing. The weather was chilly, but we still enjoyed walks on the beach! Also had fun playing ping pong and using the hot tub.
