About this property

Executive Residence on Lake Michigan with Amazing Sunsets and Fall Colors!

ABOUT THE RENTAL
If the Four Seasons Hotel chain offered a lakefront rental in Michigan, this would be it! Highest quality, full log construction in impeccable condition on Lake Michigan. A newer luxury build, executive level residence with soaring ceilings, massive log beams and rafters, plank floors, and carpeted bedrooms. Take long walks on the beach, just 50 steps from the house, and witness beautiful pink and purple sunsets from this western-facing home. Lake Michigan water levels vary each year, but this frontage usually allows you to walk out almost a quarter mile into the lake before you get waist deep. You get a secluded feeling on this heavily wooded lot, but are just minutes from all conveniences. A wonderful, soothing retreat to get away from all of the stresses back home, but with all conveniences you'd expect in a luxury retreat. You'll enjoy the expansive deck, which is ideal for catching some sun or grilling out, also the perfect place for an evening cocktail. The great room offers plenty of seating, a massive stone, wood-burning fireplace, and views of Lake Michigan. For entertainment, there is cable, Smart TVs, BluRay Player with a movie library, board games, whole house music system, and WiFi. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped and has top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub-Zero dual zone wine fridge, for your perfect temperature reds and whites. The spacious primary suite features a sitting area, king bed, private patio, lake views, gas fireplace, and bath with a dual vanity, soaking tub, and tiled shower. The two guest rooms each have a queen-size bed (one offering lake views) and all bedrooms have down comforters and pillows. The sun room has a beautiful stone, wood-burning fireplace, great for cooler evenings, and a full-size sofa bed for additional sleeping accommodations. End your evenings gathered around the firepit to enjoy s'mores and the sound of the Lake Michigan waves!

*Access to water toys and boats are not included in the rental of this property. If you would like information on watercraft rentals, please reach out to us for recommendations!

A wonderful experience!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I stayed at this cabin for only three nights. I can say that the cabin is really cool, the location on the shore of Lake Michigan, and everything inside it is truly superb. This is a perfect spot to relax and enjoy time with family or friends. You can watch the sunset from the porch or the deck. A great view of the lake Michgan.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage is in an excellent location with amazing sunsets over Lake Michigan. The sofas are worn and need to be updated. The Weber grill was in poor condition when we arrived with old food on the grill and an empty propane bottle. The freezer has a maintenance warning light and needs immediate repair.

Summer getaway

It was the perfect summer getaway, we escaped the heat from Az! We really enjoyed relaxing on the deck, listening to the lake water! The house had everything we could ask for and more! It was very spacious! We had a fire indoors and outdoors ! The private beach and yard was amazing! Can’t say enough good things about this property and the homeowners communication was excellent!

Spacious Splendor

Despite the limited view across the bay and/or horizon due to the horrible Canadian fire smoke, we enjoyed the home very much. We couldn't find any kayak rental companies willing to deliver, so that was a bit disappointing, but I found the courage to enter the cold water anyway. Burrr! We would definitely want to return. The sunsets were beautiful!

Incredible Property

My family absolutely loved this house! It was large enough for all of us to gather and not feel like we were crowded. The kitchen was the perfect size for my mom and I do put together a meal and not be bumping into each other constantly. We are already talking about booking this property again in the future!

Beautiful lakefront home

This house has beautiful views of the lake and wonderful backyard space. There was plenty of shared living space and the layout of the bedrooms were ideal for our family ( Master on one side, two bedrooms at other end) . We were happy to see that TVs are now present in each bedroom which gave us a private space to retire to in the evening if wanted. We have rented three houses on this same road because we love the location and views and this one has by far been the best. For how luxury and beautiful the house is, it does have a few quirks, but nothing that made me not want to come stay again next year!

Summer getaway

My friends and family loved our stay here. So big and cozy at the same time. The lake views and sunsets were amazing. The place was very clean and pretty much had everything we needed. My only issue would be the beds - they were a little on the hard side for everyone in the house. Was not a deal breaker and we would stay here again!
