About this property

River Cottage Retreat - Close to Golf, Beaches, Hiking!

  • No animals - no children (what an awful way to open this - but please read on for a further explanation)

    Escape to the enchanting embrace of our charming cottage, nestled in the tamaracks and set along the banks of the Betsie River. Walk the 14-acre estate grounds full of Northern Michigan natural beauty. This quiet escape features wildlife sightings, a covered front porch, riverfront access - all a close drive to beaches, and charming towns.
    Ideal as an intimate escape for two; offering a peaceful ambiance. Located just a mile from the golf course, dining, spa, and art park of Crystal Mountain, it provides the ideal blend of adventure and relaxation. Whether you choose to explore the nearby beaches, wineries, or immerse yourself in the local charming beach communities our cottage serves as the perfect home base.

    Kindly Note: Due to the unique nature of the property and home, we’re unable to accommodate children or animals. This rental is located on our private residence where we raise and care for breeding Corgis. Due to the risk of communicable diseases such as Brucellosis, no animals of any kind can be permitted on the property under any circumstance. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause - and please know this is not a decision we take lightly.

    This cottage is located next to our home and includes a 5 corgi greeting committee. While they do not have access to the cottage - they do have access to the yard. This is also why kindly ask for no pets.

    **Note : To make your stay special - we decorate the cottage seasonally. Photos may not represent current decor
