Lake House -1 block from Lake Michigan Sunsets

2 Bedrooms, 1 Bathrooms, Sleeps 6

This updated cozy cottage is one block from Lake Michigan. Located only 5 minutes north of South Haven and 20 mins south of Saugatuck/Douglas.

At the Hygge Cottage you're a short walk from catching spectacular sunsets. Located on a quiet block the home offers a nice sized backyard for activities, grilling, and two patios for outdoor dining / morning coffee.

Located only a 2 minute drive from Cogdal Winery and Hawkshead Golf Course. When you are ready to visit the surrounding area, take Blue Star north and hit the farmers markets, galleries and downtown shops in Saugatuck/Douglas or head south to South Haven for amazing restaurants, boat rentals, and public parks and beaches.

Whether you are looking for lots of activities or a quiet peaceful getaway, The Hygge Lake Cottage offers the best of both worlds.

* One block away from Lake Michigan cliff. Due to erosion, there is no direct access ( stairs or tram) to the shoreline at the end of the block. We are short drive to lovely public beach access. The cliff provides great sunset / sunrise views.

Home is only 1 hour away from Notre Dame.

Cottage Getaway

Adorable and very clean little cottage provided ample indoor space for 3 adults. Open floor plan allowed us to engage and gather for breakfast. The bedrooms and bathroom are down a short hall for privacy. Kitchen is equipped for light cooking. Host thought ahead to provide items like coffee and tea, comfortable beds and plenty of towels to welcome us and make our stay pleasant. We did not have time to use the fire pit or outdoor decks this stay. Would definitely stay again if given the opportunity.

so relaxing

Quiet neighborhood within walking distance to lake views. No access to the actual lake shore due to recent landslides, but you can walk there and watch the sunset. Super clean and comfortable home, with easy access to all of the regional attractions. Everything in the home was great; very comfortable beds and pillows, fully functioning kitchen with all the basic food prep stuff like pots and pans, utensils, etc. My kids enjoyed the trundle beds, and we had fun with some of the games and puzzles. The only thing is that the light switches are a bit quirky. Some of them don't seem to control anything, and I couldn't figure out how to turn on the fan and overhead lights in the bathroom. The shower door doesn't close all the way, but we just put an extra towel on the floor and it was fine.

Delightful home near Lake Michigan

This darling vacation home offers all that was advertised. Fabulous kitchen with eating area, 2 good sized bedrooms, lovely bath plus open living room w/ large Roku T.V.. I highly recommend this very pleasantly decorated home with loads of amenities! Plus, it is probably the cleanest rental in which I’ve ever stayed.

Great retreat location

This cottage was completely adorable and SO clean! The pictures on VRBO don't do it justice. The decor had a natural (loved the live plants!) and soothing feel. The area was very quiet and perfect for my solo retreat. It's also a very short drive to Kal-Haven trail, which was a delight. I plan to rent this again as this is one of the nicest VRBOs I've stayed in.

House was great with only 1 big issue. Owner stares shower door needs to be lifted to open & close. Its much worse than stated. It’s an accident waiting to happen. One of our guests got stuck & had to have someone come in to open the door. The house otherwise was perfect,cozy & comfortable.

Hidden Gem

We have been using VRBO for years and have booked numerous accommodations through them. This little cottage house was 5 star all the way. The description of the listing is 100% accurate, which often isn't the case. In fact, the pictures don't really do it justice. Every room, every piece of furniture, and every blanket or bath towel was beyond comfortable. That can't be overstated. The bed was so wonderful (and we're picky) that we didn't want to get out of it! Suzy was an excellent host and immediately responsive to any questions. The house was IMMACULATE, so kudos to the cleaning company. Also, we like to cook on our weekends away and the kitchen was fully stocked with anything you could possibly need. Again, we often don't find that to be the case in our rental experience. The location is great, with the house being on a dead-end road and not close to any busy road. The trees offer tremendous privacy. We highly recommend this property---you won't be disappointed. Thank you Suzy!

So relaxing

This was a getaway for my mom and I. A little shopping and wine tasting. The home is beautiful and had everything we needed and more. Such care for the guests, she provided bath soaps, spices, teas, coffee and so much more. We are definitely planning a return trip with the girls. 6 people can comfortably sleep here. Beds were fantastic.

Perfect location!

This very nice beach house is located a block or so from Lake Michigan & although there is awful beach erosion, the sunset views were incredible! There are so many Lake Michigan beaches so close to the house - it literally took us less than 10 minutes to get to several! Also, proximity to Phoenix Street and historic downtown South Haven was wonderful! The house sits on a beautiful lot and you have no neighbors close by so it's very quiet! It is decorated really cute with tons of real plants & every comfort of home - soft throws, comfortable furniture and bed, coffee beans with a grinder for fresh coffee & various teas and a tea kettle. Only utensil we couldn't find was a pizza cutter, but a large knife worked great! It's bright and airy and we would definitely stay here again.

Very cute house. Very clean and has all the amenities. Beds were comfortable. My one complaint would be the shower. Not great water pressure. Could have been user error. But other than that we loved it. Nice area. Short drive to the beach.

House was very clean and decorated beautifully in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room for two adults and two kids. Full kitchen has everything you need. The deck was a great place to hang out and had a sun shade overhang so you weren't directly in the sun. Very quick drive to downtown and plenty to do. 10/10 would recommend!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

It was our first time in South Haven and it was a perfect weekend getaway. Susan’s home is beautiful, impeccably clean and had all the lovely decor and little touches to make it feel so warm, cozy and comfortable. Even had a list on the counter of recommendations for places to eat, beaches and outdoor activities. The neighborhood was so peaceful and serene and close to everything. Susan was very responsive and easy to work with and we hope to rent her home again in the future. Thanks Susan for a wonderful stay. :)
