About this property

Charming Beachfront Studio Cottage

This true beach cottage on Lake Michigan's Magnificent Mile, beautiful beachfront with only a slope to the shore, no steps to endure. Live on the beach or walk to town for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Bring all the float toys you want or even pull your boat or jet ski right up to our shore for the day, it's your choice.

Enjoy an adult beverage on our private beach during the day or a fine bottle of wine at your bonfire after the sun goes down. We've spent many a night watching the sun go down, gazing at the stars. When not on the beach hang on our common area large deck or in our quaint cottage with views of the lake.

This is one of the original South Haven cottages that has been meticulously maintained to please the most discriminant beach goer who is looking for that unique and memorable experience.

***Best for small family or romantic getaway. Ideal for 2 adults and up to 2 small children. This unit has a studio style layout with a queen bed and full couch/futon.

Beautiful refurbished vintage cottage on North shore.

It was the perfect getaway for me, being the grandma, with all of my family and extended family next door in a big house. It was wonderful to have my own private space to go home to every night

About the host

Host profile image
We’ve owned high end beachfront property for over 20 years and have rented to hundreds of lovely families and couples who have had nothing but great things to say about the experiences and memories they’ve made out at our beach. We just purchased cottage 3, and totally renovated it to provide you with the best, most relaxing stay possible, we know you will not be disappointed.

Why they chose this property

We’ve owned Cottage #1 for 20+ years and could not pass up the chance to bring Cottage #3 into our family.

What makes this property unique

You’ll get the old school cottage feel, with all of the comfort of a brand new perfectly appointed unit, specifically for life on the beach.
