Three Lovely Cottages On One Lakefront Property ~ Sleeps 22!

JUST REMODELED

Property is located on the beach with its own dock.

These cabins are tucked away along the shore only a few minutes' walk from town. With a deck and a spacious plot by the water, this group of cottages is perfect for large groups and family memories!

The three cottages are named "Wuzgonna," "Persnickety" and "Bugaboo," respectively. All three have their own tv/living area, lakeside deck with great views, and a fully-equipped kitchen and outdoor gas grill.

"Wuzgonna" is the largest of the group, with two bathrooms and three bedrooms. There is one bedroom with a king-size bed, one bedroom with two queen beds as well as a futon, and one room with a full/twin size bunk bed.

"Persnickety" is adjoined to Wuzgonna and can be closed off for separation or left open. This cabin has two bathrooms and three bedrooms; one bedroom with a king size bed, one bedroom with a queen, and one upstairs "loft" with one twin bed and two full/twin bunk beds... great for kids (but ladder-like stairs)!!

"Bugaboo" has one bathroom and two bedrooms, with two twin beds in one and a double bed in the other.

Depending on individual preferences, these three cottages together can accommodate up to 12-22 adults with plenty of space for small children and travel cribs.

When you rent from HomeAway, you are renting all three cottages and therefore the entire property will be yours to enjoy! We also own next door at 8532 W Silver Lake Road and can accommodate groups of 30-40 people between the two properties. Updated cottages, boat dock, fire pits. Rent or bring your own boat or water craft. Kayaks, 1 canoe and 1 paddle boat available.

Not as described
The property is not as described: it’s listed as a 9 bedroom property, it only has 8 rooms and one of those, the “loft”shouldn’t count as a bedroom. The loft has a small 3’ x 3’ opening that you have to crawl through to access the room. This posed a major problem for us, as we expected 9 bedrooms and only has 7. Sanel was helpful and opened up a separate cabin next for us to use. We had access to extra bedrooms and bathrooms there. Overall, the location is good, the place is nice and the water is close by. But if you’re expecting a large 9 bedroom place, this is not it.

I guess it could have been worse
First I want to say the location is great and we had a wonderful family vacation and the online pictures are accurate.. Now for the warnings. Bring your own towels, washcloths and toilet paper. We were supplied 8 towels for 22 people for 7 days, zero washcloths and 6 rolls of toilet tissue. We had to go buy our own. The property owner was made aware but did nothing to resolve the issue. Bring your own garbage bags, dish soap, bleach, cleaning supplies and vacuum and be prepared to use them upon arrival. There is an electrical issue in persnikity, the front cottage. Lights and plugs do not work and there is sparking behind the electrical panel. There is trash behind the fake wall in the loft. The loft really should not be counted as potential sleeping space for anyone over 3 ft tall. The deck was held together by the wrong kind of screws and it fell apart almost injuring my niece.. This property could use some work done by a professional contractor and electrician before someone gets seriously hurt.. Overall you get what you pay for with this property, as the price per night is on the lower end of others in the area. Be safe and be prepared.

Excellent location
Wonderful view of Silver Lake and the sand dunes. Large waterfront space with fire pit. Front cottage could be a bit warm due to lack of insulation and a hotel-like built-in AC unit, but the weather was not bad during our stay. Would stay there again.

Awesome cottages and host
Our family rents a house or cottage for a group of 16 to 25 people every year. This is one of the best places we have rented. We had people from 1 yr old to their 60's and this place was great for all of us. The 2 main cottages are well equipped with just about anything you can need and a bit more. Bugaboo is a bit more rustic. We had an issue with the air conditioner in Bugaboo and Sanel had someone there in 20 minutes to replace it. I almost didn't call but am so glad I did. There are plenty of chairs in the private beach area, a couple canoes and fire pit area. Kids had a blast in the sand and we made the most awesome smores in the fire pit. There are plenty of places to buy bundles of wood. The only bummer was the fishing action off the pier was not good but we found plenty of things to do. The view of the dunes is unrivaled. There were so many neat shops and stores within walking distance along with a nice playground for the little ones right across the street. We normally try to go to different parts of the country every summer but this place was so nice we may have to do Silver Lake again. Sanel, thank you for making this place available to rent. It truly is a gem.

Wonderful Silver Lake get away
This cottage was ideal for my family. Lakefront on Silver Lake - campfires, trips to Whippy Dip, and swims in Lake Michigan near Litte Point Sable lighthouse were awesome. There were a few amenities missing (fans & vacuums) but the communication from the property manager was fantastic.

Fall weekend get-a-way
Booking this property was extremely easy, and communication with the property manager was attentive. We had trouble checking in due to having two different lock box codes (one in the check in email sent 2 weeks prior to check in, and one sent personally in a personal message). Cleanliness of the cottages were sub par but property manager was receptive of the concerns and sent over a maintenance man. Unfortunately by the time he showed up, we had already cleaned up most of what was concerning to us. Bunk beds were extremely unsafe to sleep in so that eliminated one of the bedroom and two sleeping spaces. The cottages provided enough space for our group (16 people) and the view was breath taking.

Great stay for large groups!
Overall everything was amazing! We had a large group for a very relaxing "bachelor/bachelorette" get together, and every single person loved this place. We did have a little difficulty with the wifi, as the information left for us and in the folder was incorrect/outdated, and would recommend a photo of the loft entrance for future travelers planning. The room itself will accommodate adults, but the door to the room really does not. Other than those two hiccups, we had an amazing time. The rooms were comfortable, the kitchens were well stocked with utensils, there were enough lawn chairs for our whole group, and the views of the lake and dunes was unbeatable. We plan on being back on a yearly basis, if possible, because our group loved it so much.

Family Vacation
Great location in a fun little town with enough activities to keep all ages busy. Dunes, Go-karts, Mini golf, bumper boats, fishing, horseback riding, and golf. Short drive to Lake Michigan beaches and lighthouse. Cozy cottages. Private beach, shallow water off dock safe for little ones, lots of water sports equipment. Perfect for a relaxing getaway.
