Exactly what we needed
Our family has a home right around the corner and this was a perfect space to have as extra living space. The home is well stocked and clean. We would definitely stay again and maybe in the summer to enjoy the backyard.

Wonderful week at the Lakeside Cottage
The Lakeside Cottage is cozy, clean and so very comfortable. It was very chilly the week we were here so we weren't able to go to the beach, but there were plenty of activities nearby to keep the whole family engaged and happy. We brought our lab and had a great time taking long walks with her. Bill, the owner, was excellent to communicate with and when the power went out the first night was very responsive and helpful. A great place to stay! Thanks, Bill!

Cute cottage
Very cute cottage. Just wish it was 10 minute walk to true beaches. Closest beach was very, very small and we had to pass a home with a high pitched alarm system always going off. Not loud but audible and not very welcoming. Not much owner, Bill, can do about that! Highly recommend Black Currant Bakehouse in Union Pier! Lakeshore drive is a great road for biking and walking. Lots of big trees and beautiful homes too.

Great Holiday Weekend at the Dunes
This cottage was so spacious and peaceful. There is only 1 bathroom, but it is very spacious. The grounds and "hangout"bonus cottage in the back was a great plus. We love this area and its super close to the State Park! Beautiful weather!

New favorite in the area!
We were thrilled to find a dog friendly property with close beach access. The house was great-totally as advertised. It was really cute, and nicely appointed. It was very clean. It had a nice homey feel. It had a lot of space-so much so, we could have been a larger group. It was warm enough to enjoy the screened in porch, which an added bonus. We only wish we had more time.

Lovely cottage near beautiful nature
This was such a perfect place to stay with our extended family. We had five adults staying (two couples plus a parent), plus two dogs. It was such a comfortable home base for exploring all of the beautiful nature nearby. It had everything we needed to cook and stay in, but also nice dining options nearby. We had so much fun getting to spend time as a family over the holidays, and this was a great place to do it.

Great Time in Lakeside
The property was exactly as promised, and communication with the host was amazing (Bill was super helpful). The location was great - right half way in between most of the stuff we wanted to do, all within 15 minutes. Perfect, wonderful, would definitely come back if we were in the area again. Thanks!!
