Welcome to the Secluded Getaway cottage! Our home is conveniently located between the Kalamazoo River and Lake Michigan, making it the perfect spot for access to both beach and town. Enjoy the quiet neighborhood, close access to outdoor activities and the friendly deer which wander through the yard around dusk and dawn.
The space
This dog friendly, 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home is the perfect spot for families, couples or small groups. The cottage comfortably sleeps 10 adults, all in beds. The main bedrooms feature queen sized beds. The bunk room has a regular queen sized bed as well as two queen sized murphy beds. Two bathrooms are located on the main level of the home, off the bedrooms.
The modern kitchen has almost anything you would need for cooking- pots and pans, dishes, glasses, coffee mugs and other kitchen essentials. A highchair is also available for the little ones. Grab a cup of coffee with the convenience of a Keurig and a travel mug and stroll down to the beach for an early morning walk or to watch the sunset over the big lake.
Please enjoy the home, but please treat it with respect. This is our vacation home that we are happy to share with you and others.
Amenities for your enjoyment
Beach items are available for your use while staying at the cottage. You will find kayaks, beach cruisers and other inflatables as well as a beach bag and small picnic cooler. Please return these when you are finished using them.
Games are available for your use while staying as well. Board games are located in the closet off the hallway and lawn games are stored in the shed. Again, please return these when you are finished so that others can enjoy them in the future.
The downstairs area is a wonderful refuge for a rainy day or evening, complete with air hockey, foosball, ping pong and pool tables.
There is a gas grill on the back patio as well as patio furniture. Feel free to use the grill but ensure that it is cleaned prior to leaving.
Other items to note

Please take any garbage accumulated during your stay out to the trash bin located at the top of the driveway.
