Two hundred and sixty feet of private, seawall-protected Lake Michigan beachfront await you at the end of a winding, tree-lined drive throughout this wooded dune. "Beautiful home with vintage cottage charm! We loved the many outdoor spaces to enjoy Lake Michigan. Very peaceful and private." Ellen R. INSIDE THE HOME The main floor features a spacious living and dining area with plenty of options to gather together or break away for quiet conversation. Step out to the roomy, attached lake facing screened porch for your morning coffee or cozy up in the evening to watch the famous Lake Michigan sunsets. Plan your daily meals in the roomy kitchen and step out to the second attached screened porch where you will find plenty of room to serve everyone at the spacious farmhouse dining table. A convenient main floor bedroom with a full bed and separate full bath complete this floor. Wander upstairs where you will find a lake-facing bedroom with two twins, a bunk room with one set of twin bunks and an additional twin bed, and a fabulous master bedroom with a king bed, twin daybed, half bath, and amazing private sundeck overlooking the shoreline. An additional full bath completes this floor. \* Please note, this home does not have a washer/dryer on site. There is no air conditioning, but the lake breeze is cooler in the evening. The fire place is purely decorative and not for guest use. \* THE LOCATION Step outside to enjoy the day lounging in the sunshine on your remote stretch of sandy beach. Rent kayaks or paddleboards locally and explore the shoreline at your own pace. Keep an eye out for local deer who occasionally wander from the wooded dune to the lake for a refreshing drink of water. Retreat to the cottage after a day in the sun and plan a barbecue on the side deck or take a short drive to nearby Grand Haven/Spring Lake and enjoy local pubs or fine dining. Treat everyone to ice cream, walk along the channel and watch the boats travel by. Plenty of retail therapy options can be found as well in this bustling resort town. Once back at your retreat wind down the evening with a fire in the new Solo Stove while making plans for your next day's adventures.

The home was set back from the road quite a bit which gave us the rustic feel we were looking for. You cannot beat the views and the sunsets were glorious!" Thomas F. "My friends and I had a wonderful time during our girls trip! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a semi secluded getaway. Loved the privacy of our own beach and it was super easy to drive into town when we wanted!"
