Yay the beach! Lake Michigan beach front cottage, adjacent to dunes & park.

Lake Michigan beachfront property with amazing views and 100 feet of private beach. Enjoy spectacular sunsets and pristine sandy beaches at our newly refurnished cottage adjacent to Flower Creek Dunes Nature preserve and Meinert Park, a favorite spot for kite boarders. Our cottage is in an ideal location at the end of a cul-de-sac with a large deck that provides commanding views of Lake Michigan and a low bluff for easy access to the beach and the large dunes of Meinert Park. Fiber internet if you can't quite leave work at home. Don't miss the charming towns of Montague and Whitehall, a short 10 minute drive, where you'll find shopping, breweries, golf, and a thriving art scene. All of this just a short 55 mile drive from Grand Rapids.
The cottage features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a travel crib.

Yay The Lake!

Perfect Michigan stay. Love this cottage and the location is perfect. Cottage is lovely and comfortable and very well appointed. Owners are clearly experienced and professional property managers. Extra stars for all the attention to details including high quality beach chairs, SUPs, kayaks, comfortable beds and nice linens. Thank you Ty and Michele for another perfect stay.

Perfect

This week could not have been better. The cottage and location were perfect for making family memories. Games on the beach, in the water, or on the deck brought all ages together. Sunsets were gorgeous and paddle boats a new delight.

Yay The Beach

We had a wonderful week at the beach with our children and their families. The beach is so private and easily accessible down the stairs. Everyone in our group with ages ranging from 4 to 70 had a great time. In addition to the excellent swimming and "sand-castling" there are kayaks available and great trails behind the house on the woods or up dunes with majestic views. The house was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed. The view from the deck was always being enjoyed by someone. Two TVs helped the kids relax after hours in the lake. The bedrooms were all comfortable. Check out the cute farm/artist market in town on Saturday mornings. We had the need to contact the host one time and I think he responded within 5 minutes and helped us immediately. Check in and check out was easy. We all agree we would like to come back again. Thank you, The Chases

Amazing weekend by the lake

Even better than the photos, the view was amazing and we liked the decor. The house felt cozy but with plenty of space. We were 3 adults a teenager and a child, so not easy to please all ages. The direct beach access was great, and the spacious decking was safe for the 6 year old with room to eat, relax and play corn hole. The welcome basket was a treat and there were lots of thoughtful touches, loads of toiletries, towels and bedding. Fully equipped kitchen, and lots of board games and beach toys. We’d definitely stay again.

Magical week on the shores of Lake Michigan

The house was perfectly situated at the end of a cul de sac right next to the park. The park has wide beaches and large sand dunes without too many people. It was a perfect week at the lake for my family. The house had canoes, paddle boards, beach chairs, a hammock, and a grill. We used them all. We played spikeball every night as the sun was setting over the lake. The view was fabulous. We watched boats going by and thunderstorms coming across the lake. The house was a great mix of rustic with amenities. We loved our stay. Montague and Whitehall are 15 minutes away with great amenities.
