Charming Couple's Cottage close to Lake Michigan, Silver lake, and Stoney Lake
Small Charming Cottage set in a beautiful wooded setting. The big slider off the living room gives views of woods and nature. People who have stayed here have seen deer, raccoons, fox, woodpeckers, and listen to the sounds of whippoorwills in the evening. There is a small patio out back, with outdoor seating and grill, with a fire pit near by. It is Private and romantic yet still close to Silver Lake, Stoney Lake and Lake Michigan. Equipped with full kitchen, bath, and laundry.

Steering Group Retreat
Our group, the White Lake Area Climate Action Council enjoyed your space for our steering committee retreat. It was perfect for four people. We enjoyed the intimacy of the space and the wooded setting. We even ventured for a walk in the 15 degree temps. Lovely spot. Thank-you!

The coziest charming cabin…stay here!
The cabin is so cozy and I love how the backward was woods. The bed was comfy and my spouse is in a wheelchair and he was able to get around the cabin easily. There is the Fox Barn winery, Farmhouse Restaurant, Stoney Lake Inn restaurant, silver lake sand dunes, and the best breakfast sandwiches at the dune store! Our stay was perfect…I can’t wait to stay here again. The perfect couples cabin. The hosts really pay attention to detail! It was perfect!

Tucked into Nature
The property and house are surrounded by trees so very private and relaxing. The little house is tight and beautifully finished with the owners thinking of guests as the top priority. The inside was clean and well appointed and the backyard was great for star gazing by the fire pit. I would definitely return for more.

Perfect Getaway !
Lovely couples getaway . The owners thought of every detail to make us feel at home .
I was skeptical about this property having a perfect 10 rating and all the reviews about how clean it was...they deserve at least an 11! This place was super clean and the host really takes the extra steps to make guests feel welcome! Highly recommend this place! Centally located so you're only 10-30 minutes away from most beaches trails and restaurants.

perfect hide-away
We loved our 4 nights at this cottage. It's tucked back in the woods, so you feel very secluded, but all of the area's best attractions are very easy to access. It was one of the most well-appointed rentals that I have stayed in and owners were easy to contact and quick to reply.

Wonderful cottage in the woods
My husband and I have stayed in rental properties all over the United States and Northern Italy over the past 25 years so we have high expectations about where we choose to stay. This was our second time staying here and we will definitely book again. This secluded cottage is in a quiet location with all the necessities for a comfortable getaway. Close to Lake Michigan beaches and all area attractions. Great star gazing on clear nights, too! Hosts are kind and accommodating. We highly recommend this property!

Super clean house
This home was nicely located in a remote, woodsy area. It was clean and modern and only six miles from the Hart-Montague bike trail we rode on two days.

Wonderful stay
The property was clean and beautiful. The loacation was great, close to activities but in the woods. My husband loved the snacks the host left us. It was a thoughtful touch. This rental had everything you needed for the weekend. I loved the recommendations by the host for places to eat and see. We went to the dairy and it has the largest donuts I have ever seen!
I definitely will stay here again when I am in the area.

Amazing Cottage getaway
We’ve booked many stays and half of them haven’t been as beautiful and as well advertised as this gem. It was private and quiet, but close enough to get to the vacation activities we came in town for. The owner and family were beyond welcoming and helpful. Even offered to loan us his flag for off-roading so we could avoid buying one if we didn’t want to (and they aren’t cheap!) There was more than enough items furnished if you planned a longer stay and needed to cook or set up for meals ect. Beautifully rehabbed and in a great location.

Quiet and cozy cottage
Nicely remodeled cottage has all you need. King bed, family room, kitchen, full bath with laundry. Outside is a fire pit for unwinding or roasting s'mores. Great location. We were able to easily get to Silver Lake, Pentwater, and Muskegon beach. Nice bakery down the road with fresh donuts. Owners are friendly and very accommodating.
