Private Wooded Retreat | Screened Porch + Firepit
Tucked away on a private, wooded lot in the heart of Pentwater, this thoughtfully designed mid-century cottage offers the perfect blend of style, comfort, and space—ideal for families and groups traveling together. Just a five-minute drive to Lake Michigan and Mears State Park public beach access, and equally close to the Bass Lake inlet, you'll enjoy effortless access to the area's best outdoor adventures while returning home to peaceful seclusion.
The home features four bedrooms and three and a half baths, all conveniently located on the main floor and arranged for relaxed, comfortable vacation living. Sleeping accommodations include: Primary Guest Room: Queen bed with ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower Guest Room 2: Two full beds with access to a full bath with tub/shower combination Guest Room 3: Queen bed with access to a half bath Guest Room 4 / Family Suite: Queen bed plus a twin-over-full bunk bed, with an adjacent sleeping area featuring an additional queen bed; access to a nearby full bath with shower
The open-concept kitchen is the heart of the home, centered around a large island that invites gathering, cooking, and conversation. A spacious dining area flows seamlessly from the kitchen, making shared meals easy and memorable.
With two separate family rooms, the cottage offers plenty of breakaway space—perfect for multi-generational groups, kids' hangout zones, or quiet evenings by the fire. Large windows throughout fill the home with natural light and highlight the surrounding woods, enhancing its warm mid-century character. The lower level includes a washer and dryer along with a ping-pong table for indoor fun.
Step outside to enjoy the expansive screened porch, ideal for morning coffee or evening cocktails without the bugs. A firepit and dedicated outdoor dining space create a welcoming setting for long summer nights, s'mores, and stargazing after a day at the beach.
Well-furnished, thoughtfully designed, and perfectly located, this Pentwater retreat is a comfortable and stylish home base for lake days, small-town exploring, and unforgettable time together.
