We come from a large family and our siblings from 5 different Stares traveled to St Joseph for a funeral of a beloved family member. The summer Coastal Cottage was a warm, comfortable and pleasantly furnished venue that settled the nerves and soothed the soul. Indeed, the Swiss would describe the atmosphere and ambience as “gemutlich” (cheerful, warm, and cozy). The proprietors were extreme accommodating to our needs, and were warm and thoughtful hosts. I would highly recommend this venue for any.family gathering . The views of the lake and sunsets are stunning.

Beautiful property with plenty of room for a group our size

This was a business trip, but I can’t wait to come back for a personal trip. The house was simply amazing only beaten by the incredible sunset views- it was extremely peaceful. Every amenity you could want was available! My communication with the property manager over a few minor issues was prompt and very helpful. I can’t say enough about this little oasis. I wish I lived here!!

We celebrated my brothers birthday here and it was the perfect lake house! It was a short 1.5 hour car ride from Chicago and was so relaxing hearing the sounds of the waves & the seeing views of the lake. The place was very clean and had more than enough towels / blankets/ etc. for our group of 10! We had a storm pass through that impacted our Wi-fi and the property managers handled it with care and communicated efficiently.

A truly beautiful quality comfortable home well appointed and located in a fantastic setting deep into the woods on a private lane with an amazing lake view for perfect sunsets. We had 9 people with dogs for this week long family retreat and we loved every minute. The host was super easy to communicate with and we especially enjoyed the little touches like the fire pit, hot tub, gas grill, expansive front porch with comfortable tables and couches, and swings at the lake. 4 nice full beds in the loft with a full bathroom, 2 bedrooms each with queens on the main floor sharing a full bathroom and a bedroom with king in the basement with a full bath. Kitchen had nice appliances and was well stocked with utensils. Washer/dryer were upscale as well. Drive to best beaches just 15 mins. There is construction at the home next door. We are already planning to return next summer and can't wait!

I will be getting back on here and leave an in depth review if the owners of this do not contact us about the matter that took place during our stay here….. BEWARE. Do not leave anything of value when you leave this place or take anything into it that you might not want to be stolen during your stay.. we still can not believe what happen to us here.

My friends and I had a great time at this coastal cottage. The house was so beautiful and clean. The property manager was extremely responsive, as well! We truly enjoyed our stay.

Attention to the details in this home are exceptional. The views of Lake Michigan sunsets, location, furnishings, and little details like quality towels, quality bed linens, huge laundry room & local pancake mix & syrup made our stay next level. My college age kids agreed the location and yard, and fire pit were favorite parts of our visit. IT’s everything the photos highlight and more. Selfishly, I hesitated to share how great it all was as I don’t want it to be full next time we visit.
