View-the best!

Big picture windows on cottage and location great-right on the water and view of dunes could not be beat. Very short walk to climb dunes, did Mac Woods dunes rides and watched sunset over Lake Michigan at Little Sable lighthouse. And easiest check in ever! Thank you again Lynn!

Dune Shine Experience

What a wonderful time we had at Silver Lake. The cabin's views on Silver Lake were fabulous. From the sunsets over the Dunes to the raise of the full moon shine over Silver Lake. We took a tour with Mac Wood's Dune Ride, what a great way to learn about the history of these dunes and then we climbed up the Pedestrian Dune Area. We made some new friends and we experienced the off road adventure. We are looking forward to our next trip.

Quaint cottage with a view!

Nice cottage with spectacular view! Parking is tight if bringing trucks and trailers. We were able to utilize the boat launch for overflow parking. Owners were quick to answer any questions. Would have loved to be able to use outdoor ammenties, but it was snowing on April 1st! Would use again!!

This is the second time we've stayed at this property. My boyfriend and I love the view, how close it is to the foothill dunes, and the quaint cabin like home. We have decided to make this an annual stay and the host Lynn, is great!
