Vintage Beachside Cottage
Vintage Beachside Cottage:
• Beachside - No roads to cross over!
• 4 Bedrooms
• 2 Full bathrooms
• Fully equipped kitchen
• New furniture & colors!
• Nice sized living & dining rooms
• Buffet area w/extra seating
• Twin patios & lots of sunny windows
• High capacity Central A/C with enhanced filtration
NOTE: Holiday weekends and the entire month of July require at least a 3 night stay.
M&M Dune Cottage is a vintage, 1930's Sheridan Beach original. So, if you're looking for a place with character and can live with all of the rough edges that come with staying in a 80+ year old cottage built on sand, we're the perfect choice for your fun in the sun!
Simply, walk out your front door to step onto the sand path. It leads to the world's most beautiful beach - Sheridan Beach!
Just a stroll down the beach…
• The historic Lighthouse with its Promenade
• The Michigan City Zoo & award winning Washington Park.
Like to shop, boat or play...
Visit the nearby Lighthouse Outlet Mall, the Downtown Art district with its fun Restaurants & Pubs, the Blue Chip Casino and the local marina with ramps and transient slips - just a quick 5 minute drive away.
An easy vacation for young families wanting to create a lifetime of memories, and for those who are looking to reconnect. Great for a large family, or two smaller ones. Well suited for family gatherings & craft groups, too.
Comfortably sleeps eight...
• 2 bedrooms each with 2 Twin Beds
• 1 Bedroom has a Twin over a Full Bed
• 1 Bedroom has a Queen Bed
Note: Bed linens & Bath towels are provided

• Pots, pans, pitchers & prep bowls
• Corkscrew, can-opener & cutlery
• Dishes, glassware & utensils
• Dish towels, paper towels & napkins
• Vegetable cooking spray
House items...
• High capacity central air conditioning system designed to handle hot summer days.
• High speed internet and WIFI service upgraded for Summer 2022 - supported by Comcast’s newly installed wiring all the way from their trunk line into the cottage and connected to their newest broadband modem.
• SmartTV to stream your member accounts
• DVD player & scores of DVD movies
Outdoor items...

• Cottage set back off road
• Rear entrance has one step
• Front entrance has 3 steps to patio +1 step into cottage
• Emergency numbers on fridge
• First-Aid Kit
• Flashlights & extra household lightbulbs
Parking...
Nearby, day/night free public parking spaces are readily available on Colfax, Lake & California Avenues, most days of the Summer. It'll take a bit more effort on holiday & event weekends
Bring your suits, sandals, suntan lotion, and a good book!
Important Note:
Like all area cottages, M&M Dune Cottage is separated from the lake by a naturally created, government protected dune. The pathways over the dune are marked & continually managed to keep their heights as low as possible. Last season, there were ‘easy walk’ board-walk mats placed out on two of the three beach paths adjacent to the cottage. There's a flat boardwalk in Washington Park.
Please remember to read all beach cautions (especially about riptides) and supervise children. Thank you!
FOR ADDED COVID SAFETY:
• We’ve extended the work hours of our 5 Star Housekeeping team to provide the additional time necessary to perform enhanced cleaning procedures.
• We use ‘Hospital Grade’ disinfectant solutions.
• The newer dishwasher has a Steam Cycle for better sanitization.
• You’ll receive a large quantity of ‘Hospital Grade’ disinfectant wipes your use on hard surfaces at the cottage.
• Also provided are compact hand sanitizers to take with you to the beach, zoo or anywhere else your vacation takes you.
• Brand new rolls of paper towels, toilet tissue and kitchen sponges are provided for each stay.
• The interior has been tested for mold - no issues.
• In addition to the full complement of freshly laundered linens and towels, all mattresses and bed pillows have allergy liners.
