Fresh beach cottage
This is a new one-bedroom cottage in a great location. The entire interior is all-new with nice decor, loads of fresh air and all the basic you need. It's perfect for a couple or small family, we plan to rent again.

A Lakeside Getaway & Retreat
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Lakeside cottage. We were in the tri-state area for a family memorial service and the property provided peace, quite, comfort and a welcome retreat! Although it was a fairly rainy autumn weekend, we enjoyed Lakeside, Union Pier & New Buffalo. Thank you!!

Short & Sweet
We did a long weekend stay for a wedding and this property and location were perfect for that. Since our turn around was quick and we visited relatives while in town we didn't explore the area except for the wonderful breakfast goodies at Black Currant Bakehouse (highly recommend if you have a sweet tooth). Our host was very responsive to the missing ironing board which was appreciated and overall we had a relaxing stay.

Last Minute Getaway
We decided on Thursday to take a quick getaway because the weather forecast was ideal for October. We luckily secured this cabin! Perfect for us in every way. Clean, bright and comfortable. Loved the screened in porch and watching deer in the yard. Well equipped kitchen and spacious open floor plan. We cannot wait to return! I almost hate to post how great it was because it may not be available the next time we need to get away!!

Weekend Getaway
My husband and I recently rented this property in October for our anniversary weekend. The property was the perfect size for the two of us and came with everything we needed. If it was a bit warmer, the enclosed porch and outside fire pit looked very nice too on a nice piece of property. Check in was very easy and the owner texted to make sure we got in okay. It’s in a great spot near the restaurants in Sawyer and Three Oaks. We enjoyed cocktails at The Historian, dinner at Susan’s Sawyer and breakfast at Oaks Eatery. We try to visit southwest Michigan every year so hope to be back next year!

Perfect 1st visit to Lake Michigan
My wife and I celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary by visiting the Lakeside area to check out Lake Michigan the dunes. We couldn't have been more pleased with our whole experience, beginning with this perfect little cabin. Everything was clean and is like new. The area is beautiful and quiet. The backyard and back porch are peaceful. There is everything you need within a 10 minute drive, be that nice restaurants, beaches, wareen dunes national park, groceries, or breakfast nooks, they are all nearby! I'd give more stars if I could. Highly recommend.

Nice Cabin in Great Location
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this Lakeside cabin. Great central location with only a short drive to many wineries, breweries, restaurants, and casino. Nice screened in back room that we used every night. Only 1 1/2 miles to Cherry Beach. A nice stretch of beach that is well worth the $15 car park fee. There are quite a few stairs down to the beach, fyi. The host was easy to communicate with and was very accommodating in dealing with an issue we had with one of the overhead fans. The bedroom window AC unit kept it cool at night and the bed was comfy. Nice shower. Saw several deer on my walks in this peaceful area. Would definitely return.
