Cottage Lake Michigan Beach Pentwater Dunes *Special* April 1st - May 22nd 2024

This vacation home offers one bedroom with a queen bed, a queen sofa bed in the living room, one full bath and a fully equipped large kitchen. Areas of enjoyment outdoors include a nice deck off of the bedroom, a covered porch with grill, and a firepit with seating.

The home is located near the edge of the Pier Marquette Forest and includes access to a private, shared neighborhood beach which is only a 5-7 minute walk (or 1-2 minute drive) away.

There's so much to do in this area of Michigan with sand dune activities, beaches, wineries, shopping, hiking, water sports, Michigan Adventure Amusement Park and more. Or just unplug, hang out, and relax! 

There are lots of good restaurants nearby to enjoy. Bortels Fishery (which has been a family business since the 1800s), Golden Sands with their tasty pizzas and often entertainment, Hart Brewery, The Antler and so many more. 

Whether you like quiet and relaxation, or you are looking to stay busy, you can find it here.

Peaceful paradise best VRBO EVER
The owners were fantastic! Responsive and made sure the kitchen had the items I requested for my extended stay. The house is beautifully appointed and the kitchen is very well equipped! I walked to the private beach every day and experienced fireflies every night! I will definitely come back to this piece of paradise in Mears!

Outstanding experience
Our stay at Robin and Bob's home was outstanding. It is a darling house - very well appointed and cutely decorated. The owners are so kind and helpful. Great proximity to the private beach and to the cute town of Silver Lake. This is a great choice for a Michigan vacation.

This was our first VRBO experience. “Our” cottage did not disappoint! The home is first class. The owners have impeccable taste who no doubt strive to provide a home away from home. I won’t spoil others stay, but the owners made coming through the front door very welcoming! Privacy abounds in the serene setting all the way to “your” nearby private beach. Fun times!!

Perfect Family Getaway
My three sons and I spent four nights at this wonderful property, and had a wonderful time. Extremely clean, great kitchen, plenty of room for air mattresses on the floor. We arrived to some welcome gifts and every "extra" was available from a hose to rinse off our sandy feet to a nightlight in the kitchen. We spent quality time on the beach and in the Lake. Bob and Robin are wonderful hosts!

Adorable Cottage, Loved it!
This cottage was super cute and fit our family’s needs perfectly. It was close to Hart, and Mear’s / Pentwater State park which is an amazing little town. We used the Cedar Point Park each day which was beautiful!! The owner’s did stay in the camper on the back of the property but we had no issues and hardly seen them. I have recommended this to friends for a future rental.
