Lovely stay on Lake Michigan!
The wooded setting directly on Lake Michigan was perfection. We loved the screened in front porch for all of our meals, morning coffee and game times. The deck was our sunset watching base and a shady reading spot during the day. The private beach was well appointed with lots of beach chairs. The fire pit behind the house in the forested area was great for our s'more making! Thanks for sharing your family cottage with us!
