About this property

Charming Three Oaks Cottage - dog friendly with a fenced yard and hot tub!

Get away in style to the Cherry Tree Cottage located in a quiet corner of Three Oaks. You’ll enjoy a private home with a large, fenced-in yard that backs up to mature woods and is walking distance to the charming shops, restaurants and event venues in town including Journeyman Distillery and the Acorn Theater. The location is central to all that Harbor Country has to offer - New Buffalo’s beaches are a 10-minute drive, Warren Dunes State Park is 15 minutes away, and there’s convenient access to the Galien River for kayaking or paddle boarding. The area is also close to many vineyards, as well as hiking and biking trails, and local farm stands will provide the freshest ingredients if you choose to cook while you’re away!

The kitchen is well-appointed for preparing all types of meals and provides coffee lovers with many options in the morning- Keurig, drip coffee, French press or Chemex. There’s even an ice cream maker to take the edge off of a hot summer day and a slow cooker for making soups and stews for tailgating in the Fall. The back door opens to a sizeable deck with a grill nearby and a hot tub that seats 6. The yard is perfect for lawn games (corn hole is provided) or for your well-behaved, four-legged best friend to enjoy. In the evening, you can relax with your favorite beverage around the fire pit, take a dip in the hot tub, or gaze at the stars when the sky is clear. There are three bedrooms - 2 with Queen beds and a third with a daybed/trundle that provides 2 twins, and there’s a washer and dryer for your use. For entertainment, the home offers board games, cards, books, high speed Internet, YouTube TV with local and cable channels and Roku/Smart TV to access streaming apps.

Pet policy:

Well-behaved dogs are welcome at the cottage (limit 2) - I love to travel with my dogs, too! - and I'm asking that guests follow these rules to keep the cottage clean and welcoming for other guests who may have pet sensitivities:

1) Please do not allow pets on the furniture unless it is covered - covers are provided and are washed between guest stays.
2) Pets should not sleep on the beds - please use one of the 2 dog beds provided or your own.
3) Dog bowls are available and should be used for all feeding/drinking - please do not use other dishes for your pets.
4) Please wash/bathe dogs outside.
5) Please use the paw wipes that are provided at the front and back doors.
6) Please clean up after your pet in the yard - this will keep there are bags provided and a trash can right outside - as well as a scooper.

Quiet and Relaxing Stay

It is our 2nd time back at this 3 Oaks property and everything was as wonderful as our first stay. The house is decorated beautifully and there are plenty of amenities. The host has thought of everything! We especially like the extra blankets and towels so that we do not need to bring our own. We utilized the hot tub outside even on the cold New Years night and it was great! The house is on a quiet dead-end road and is very close to downtown. The yard is fenced in and very dog-friendly. Bathrooms and kitchen very very clean, comfortable couch and bed. It’s a great place to get away from the business of life and relax. Would recommend!!

Thoughtful and clean oasis in Three Oaks

The host thought of everything! The place was clean, comfortable, stylish and organized. The beds were so comfortable. It is on a quiet cul da sac, yet easily walkable to the adorable downtown. The yard is fenced in and safe for dogs to freely and safely run around. I can’t wait to go back!

Perfect get away home in perfect location

This home truly exceeded our expectations! The back yard was a standout feature—spacious, beautifully maintained, and so peaceful. The neighborhood was incredibly quiet, making it the perfect getaway for relaxation. Inside, the house had a very nice flow, with thoughtfully designed spaces and high-quality finishes throughout. Everything felt well-maintained and inviting. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!

Wonderful fall weekend getaway!

Myself along with my husband and two doodles enjoyed a lovey fall getaway at this wonderful property. The neighborhood is quiet and nature takes ahold of all your focus in the expansive backyard. Our city doodles had plenty of space to run, play, and explore. We took advantage of the fire pit and and and the hot tub amenities explore.

Southwest MI Charm!

This cozy house in Three Oaks was fantastic. It was so cute and cozy, so easy to relax in, and just the right fit for us and our pups. The house was clean and updated, had everything we needed with extras. The backyard was amazing for our pups. Fully fenced in secure. It was so cute with all the lights. Host was so accommodating and friendly. Kept us up to date on any issues and was so easy to communicate with. Three Oaks was such a cute town. We were pretty centrally located to a number of other great towns and the beach. Will come back again for sure.

Lovely

Such a wonderful home and location. Very clean and the host was quick to respond to all questions. The yard was perfect for relaxing with my dog in the morning to have a cup of coffee to start the day. At night the quiet street and hot tub were great to have. Close to places to eat, a grocery store and gas station with the beaches nearby.

Everything I pictured and More

My family and I had such a nice stay at this house. Felt like home. We didn't get to enjoy the Outdoor part as much as we wanted to due to the weather but the inside was so comfortable and relaxing it did not matter. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding felt luxurious. She had everything needed for your pet, I did not really need most things I brought for my dog. We had an issue with the TV and she sent someone out right away and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend! Wish we could have stayed a little longer.

Wonderful Stay

Based on the description, photos and reviews It may have been hard to exceed expectations, but this gem of a house did just that. Starting with the convenient location of Three Oaks, this accommodation truly does feel like the comfortable and relaxing home one would like to spend time in. Everything has been thought of to provide for a wonderful stay. From the beautiful interior design to the fully equipped kitchen, to the comfortable beds, to the expansive and inviting outdoor space with deck, fire pit and hot tub you could not ask for anything more. Thank you, Carolyn, for being the perfect host and for creating such an incredible experience.

Lovely home and backyard

Meticulously clean and thoughtfully designed home. We had an issue come up and Brandy, the property manager responded immediately and successfully resolved the issue. Very impressed by the communication with both Carolyn, the owner and Brandy, the property manager. The backyard is absolutely beautiful and private with fire pit, hot tub as well as outdoor comfortable seating and a table and chairs. Fragrant candles available and many "little touches" that made staying here for 6 nights exceptional.

Great for a small family!

The house was cozy and very clean! And the location was perfect. Three Oaks is such a cute little town, and only 10-15 minutes from lots of beaches and other great restaurants. It was such a great size for our family of 3 and bigger dog who felt so welcome with all the pet supplies and giant backyard to run around in. We plan to try staying here again next year we loved it so much :)

Amazing

The house was just as described. Very clean. I’m not sure how to describe it other than it felt like a home away from home. There was just this nice, cozy feeling we all felt during our stay. The location is awesome and a short driving distance to several beaches. My family & our dog enjoyed it very much.

Weekend Getaway

Enjoyed our weekend getaway to Three Oaks. This property was perfect, just as described and displayed in pictures. Great location , good proximity to New Buffalo and downtown Three Oaks. House was clean, kitchen was well appointed with everything you need to cook if desired. Hot tub was clean and working properly. We really appreciated the fact that the property not only accepted pets but welcomed them. There are treats, blankets, bowls and toys for your pet. Carolyn was easy to work with and very responsive. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect 4th of July Getaway from the City

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property in Three Oaks, MI over the 4th of July holiday! The thoughtful interior design made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The entire house is well-appointed, with every detail carefully considered. The kitchen is nicely equipped with all the essentials and more, making meal preparation a breeze. The outdoor area and yard are absolutely fantastic. The furniture is well taken care of, and the umbrellas provide much-needed shade during the day. Our dogs had a blast playing in the spacious yard, which was a huge bonus for us. The hot tub was clean and operating properly, adding an extra layer of relaxation to our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring we all had a good night's sleep. The location is super convenient, within walking distance to town, making it easy to explore the local area. Communication with the property manager was excellent, and they were always responsive and helpful. We can't wait to visit again. Highly recommend this property for a relaxing and enjoyable stay away from the noise and hustle of Chicago!

Anniversary getaway

We loved every detail of this property! For starters, this property is more than dog friendly, it’s dog welcoming! The owner had treats and a plethora of dog materials available. The welcome gift was very thoughtful and elegant. Amenities like the hot tub and fire pit were adored daily. The backyard was beautiful and spacious. We used the patio furniture and outdoor dining set for cards and enjoying meals. We also loved the short walk to Journeyman Distillery and Froehlich’s. The neighborhood was quiet and good for walks. Overall, communication was great, amenities were wonderful, and our trip could not have been better. A must stay!

City Escape

We had a wonderful stay in Three Oaks. The house was adorable, although smaller than we anticipated, and had everything we needed for our stay. The backyard is awesome, especially if you have dogs. We did have one issue come up with the property, however the owner responded immediately and worked all day to get the issue resolved. We would definitely consider this house when we are in the area again.
