About this property

Herons Nest at Viewpoint Beach channel on Magician Lake, Sister Lakes, MI 49047

  • Herons Nest: A cozy lake cottage, with a huge patio for large family events, is located on Magician Lake in Sister Lakes, Michigan. The property is located at the mouth of Polk Channel, a mile-long waterway excavated in the 1950's, running from Magician Lake through Viewpoint Beach...surrounded by pines and hardwoods that have been growing for a century or more. The cottage is perfect for a family vacation, or couples trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Fish from the dock and swim and boat on the lake. A sandy swimming and boating area is close by. Air conditioned. Boat rentals, which include kayaks, canoes, paddle boards and pontoon boats, are available for daily or weekly rates.. Enjoy the BB - Q and an evening around the fire pit.
    Fall: The property is perfect for an autumn get-a-way. Enjoy a campfire on a cool fall evening, kayak the mile-long Polk Channel, walk through the woods to view the colorful autumn leaves, participate in the many wine-tasting activities sponsored by local wineries, shop the quaint, but bustling Dowagiac, attend a University of Notre Dame home football game in South Bend, IN, carve a jack-o-lantern
    provided by Viewpoint Beach management. The cottage is heated; you will be warm and cozy on a cold night after busy, fun fall days in the country. Three-night minimum. Sleeps 9.
    We have three cottages next door to each other...Frog Hollow, Turtle Cove and Herons Nest...perfect for a fall group retreat, a reunion or a get-a-way with a group of friends. *Please no high school graduation parties!*

    Experience a real American summer and/or autumn in the country
    Celebrate your wedding in a natural setting.
