About this property

Rare Find- Low Bluff Cottage On Lake Michigan

On Lake Michigan-4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms with large deck and screened in porch.
This beautiful beachfront house on Lake Michigan has 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and an outdoor shower! Newly built in 2019, this open concept house has everything you need. With three large bedrooms (Queen beds) and a bunk room with two bunkbeds (Queen bottom and full upper) plus a separate Queen futon, there is plenty of room for everyone.
When you step out onto the spacious deck, you'll hear the waves and see the gorgeous, panoramic views of Lake Michigan. Relax outside on the comfortable deck furniture or enjoy a cup of coffee in chairs/table overlooking the water. In addition, there is a large screened in porch with an additional table and chairs, allowing you to enjoy the view morning and night, rain or shine.
This home provides two family areas with televisions, a 10 person dinning table, washer and dryer, gas grill, lounge chairs for relaxing in the sun, beach chairs to sit down by the water, games and puzzles when you're ready to take a break from the beach.
The following are included in your stay: bath and beach towels, kitchen towels, bed linens, pillows, bar soap, dishwasher soap, liquid dish soap, 2 paper towel rolls and 2 toilet paper rolls per bathroom.
We are on a low bluff for easy access to the lake. In addition to our 60 feet of private lake frontage, there is an additional county beach available for your use. Little Sable Lighthouse is just a 5-minute walk, or you can walk to the North and have 4 miles of Silver Lake State Park's beautiful beach all to yourselves.
In the evening there are several beach chairs to sit around a beach fire pit. Be sure to check out the stars at night! Oh, and did we mention the sunsets? They're incredible, you'll have a front row seat for each one!

This property is heaven on earth. The kids were loving the beach and the downstream river on the corner to explore! Perfect location for silver lake sand dunes as well. We all made the most out of this vacation and we will most definitely be back next year!!

Great house and location!

Had a great vacation with the family at the Low Bluff cottage. Cottage is exceptionally kept and has all the amenities you need. Beach front was great with sandy bottom which was great for swimming. Overall I would highly recommend the cottage and I’m sure our family will be back next summer!

Beautiful views

The house was amazing and had everything we needed. The view and the deck was the best spot to relax. Since it was a bit rainy that week we spent time inside and cooking some meals. Great kitchen! It was a very relaxing week.

Best Place Ever!

What a great time our family had at your house! Everything in the house was clean and in order. The grands loved their own spacious room with bunk beds and sitting area. Our kids and grands especially loved the stand-up boards and spent many hours on them.

Memories made

We had such a great time in this property. The location is unreal with private beach and best sunsets. Each of the four rooms are very spacious. The kids bunk room has a hangout area which was fantastic for our 6 boys under 8 years old. We highly recommend this property!

Perfect beach vacation

A beautiful home in a beautiful setting. Right on Lake Michigan for the beach and swimming, with the shallow creek so close for the little ones to play and swim. Perfect. Plenty to do in the area on a cloudy day. My seven year old grandson summed it up, “Best vacation ever !”

Great spot for a family reunion of sorts!

Very nice cottage. My daughter, son-in-law and two grandsons (5 and 7) slept in the huge 4th bedroom with the bunkbeds, had plenty of space to spread out, and appreciated the nearby washer/dryer. He's a former head chef, and loved the oven. When the lake was too windy or cold, they enjoyed using the nearby creek. I am in my 70s, so greatly appreciate the new steps making beach access simple! Overall, had a great week, with shopping and nearby dining and activities, including the dunes at the state park. Cottage is well located.

Absolutely Beautiful

This home and the private beach were amazing. The home is a newer build, clean (!) and very well-appointed. The screen room is so comfortable--for dining, relaxing and looking out over the beautiful lake. The sundeck was a favorite place to lounge in the sun and under the moonlight. Our family of four had bonfires on the beach at night, fished in the lake and creek and had the most relaxing time away from our busy summer schedule. I was able to work remotely without issue (i.e., great WiFi). This home is a gem, and Chad is an excellent host.

Great home- great view

This lakefront home is one of the best we ever rented through VRBO. The owner Chad responded to emails quickly. The home was spotless and well equipped. The lake views- unobstructed - off the huge deck. In the neighboring town of Hart they have a brewery - great place to eat and drink.

Special Place

We spent a week here, and it was just spectacular. Inside - everything is very well appointed, but you don't come here for the inside - it's what's outside that counts the most. The screened-in porch and deck overlooking Lake Michigan are nothing short of awesome. And the beach is Pure Michigan at your toe-tips. On your walks along the beach, go right, and you have to access the dunes - and it feels as if you are on a deserted island. To the left, you have a stream (kid friendly), and further on, the lighthouse. After the beach, the foot shower and outdoor shower help to keep the sand out of the house. The only thing to note is getting to the beach can be challenging for older people - it's steep - but there are alternatives, as Chad mentions in his notes when you get there. By the way, Chad and his father were extremely responsive to questions or issues - which was great. Don't hesitate to rent this beautiful and special place - you won't regret it.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay as a large family in this brand new cottage with breathtaking views. We enjoyed our time together and being able to take off and do family friendly day trips in Silver Lake and Stony Lake. Owner is friendly and responds quickly to texts.
