Lakeside Retreat on South Scott Lake – Pet Friendly | Sleeps 8
Escape to this freshly renovated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage nestled directly on the shores of South Scott Lake in Bangor, Michigan. With 120 feet of private lake frontage, this cozy getaway offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and beach relaxation—all just 25 minutes from the vibrant beach town of South Haven.
Step inside and discover a welcoming, open-concept living space with stunning lake views from a wall of windows. The updated kitchen, dining area, and main living room flow together seamlessly, making it easy to gather and unwind. A screened-in porch just off the living area offers the perfect spot to sip coffee or enjoy a sunset cocktail while overlooking the water. The home comfortably sleeps 8 guests amongst three bedrooms and the secondary living room sofa sleeper. The primary suite offers a Queen bed, TV and private half bathroom. Another bedroom offers a Queen bed and workstation, while the third bedroom offers two Twin beds. The main bathroom has been thoughtfully updated with a spacious tiled walk-in shower.
Outside, enjoy everything lake life has to offer. The private dock is perfect for fishing, swimming, or launching the included kayaks and paddle boards (life jackets provided). A fire pit near the sandy lakefront adds a cozy way to end the evening under the stars.
Whether you're fishing, paddling, roasting marshmallows, or exploring nearby South Haven's beaches, restaurants, and shops, this is the perfect home base for your Pure Michigan getaway.

This was a very nice place to vacation. It appeared to be recently remodeled and was well-furnished with new appliances and a functional kitchen. Our kids used and really enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks on the property. It is a small, quiet lake, very restful and enjoyable. We would return.

Me and my friends had a wonderful stay, this lake house was very clean and had everything we needed! We loved the sun room! The neighbors were also very friendly and helpful when our air conditioning broke.
