This extensively-renovated cottage is attractively decorated and is perfect for families with children or a group rekindling their friendship--all in a peaceful country and lake setting. Our home consists of nearly-new ranch-style construction with no stairs inside.

The great room offers entertainment and dining options including island seating for 2, an extra-large dining table that seats up to 12, or a small intimate table for 4 that can also be used for games or scrapbooking. The comfortable leather sofas are a perfect seating area to watch satellite channels or DVD movies on our large-screen (55") HD TV. The kitchen is well-equipped and even has a mini-fridge hidden under the island--perfect for kids to fill with their own snacks and drinks. The bedrooms are lovingly decorated, comfortable, and inviting. The screened porch is a great play area for kids or a sitting area for reading; it's also great for just looking at the trees while sitting in a rocking chair or on our comfortable furniture.

The Neighborhood:
Sunset Beach House is one of a few homes surrounding Upper Scott Lake, a quiet inland lake located in Lee Township, Michigan. Come and experience all four seasons with family or friends at Sunset Beach!

Summer brings the fun of boating, swimming, picnicking, and relaxing. The autumn colors are spectacular around the lake and area. Enjoy the area's winter sports like skiing, sledding, cross-country skiing, and ice skating. Spring brings the lovely colors of the flowers and leaves bursting into life, invigorating your soul and mind after the long winter.

The cottage is 10-15 minutes away from Crane's Orchards and Dutch Farms, famous for delicious pies and fruit picking. On the way to the orchards is the Fennville Winery, offering tours and wine tastings. If you like antiquing, it does not get better than this - there are many antique stores within 20 minutes, either in South Haven, Allegan, Douglas, and Saugatuck or along Blue Star Highway. In the summer dune rides are a blast and the South Haven beaches are gorgeous. Go fruit picking for cherries, blueberries, raspberries, and apples in nearby orchards. Art galleries in the area offer a wonderful selection to take home as souvenirs. Take your own kayaks to different lakes and rivers - but don't forget your paddles and life jackets!

Upper Scott Lake is only 15 minutes from downtown South Haven or Saugatuck, and 25 minutes from Holland.
