Great weekend in an adorable cottage.
The property was exactly as described. My husband and I had a wonderful time with are two dogs. Carol and Walt felt like family from the moment we met them. The Cottage is adorable with all the necessary amenities to make our stay perfect. We were a two minute drive to Lake Michigan and spent our days soaking up the sun with our doggies. We arrive before the summer season so the town was not 'open' however it was a blast. My hubbie and I already plan on returning for a longer stay. Thank you Carol for being so fantastic. We are so grateful to have met you! Steph and Greg (plus Claire and Roger)

Location is absolutely perfect. So easy to visit other areas (restaurants and attractions) that are north and south, but simply ideal for visiting Lake Michigan. The host are truly amazing. Always willing to help make my stay as comfortable as possible. Will definitely be back to visit.

Highly recommend!
We stayed here for several nights this July. The owners were very friendly and helpful, the location is great (very close to beaches and boat launches), and we all got a good night’s sleep. The accommodations were great. Highly recommend this location!

We felt very welcomed by our hosts. They welcomed us to come by 2:15 instead of waiting till 4:00 since they did not have guests earlier that that day. Our beds were ready, Every thing was clean. There was fresh spring water in the refrigerator for us. They welcomed our dog too which was a blessing. The price was right.

Cozy Guest House
Property owners went above and beyond with making sure we were satisfied. They even baked homemade blueberry muffins and served them warm to us. We would stay there again.
