Cozy & Peaceful
We really enjoyed our stay! We explored nearby & ventured to Lake Michigan, it was the perfect cozy cottage to return to. We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evening & listening to the beautiful sounds of nature. Our dog, Finnigan, enjoyed the stay as well, plenty of opportunities for sniffari's!

Perfect little red cottage
This little cottage was perfect for me. I was in need of a solitary retreat to grieve the lost of my veteran husband who's b-day was July 4th. The area was peaceful & quiet with wonderful nature around. I was able to come to some peace after my stay, wish I could have stayed longer. Check in was easy and communication was quick. The place was spotless & very organized. Just when I was missing my 2 kitties 1 of the resident kitties came to say hi. He was a friendly little guy & gave me the love I needed. I feel very blessed to have finding this place at the last min. It helped me a great deal.
