Lake Michigan Beach House with Private Hot Tub to get away from it all

Quiet time in nature should be part of a wellness routine, like meditation or yoga. If you’re stressed out, you should be able to pull a rip cord and be sitting at a campfire. This is that place. Why settle for cold and impersonal when you can stay here in this warm, inviting home where you have the beauties of Lake Michigan to admire? The home is directly on the Lake. Enjoy the stunning infinity lake views from nearly every window. The deck overlooks a gorgeous sweep of Lake Michigan that is perfect for swimming. Just 22 steps down to the spacious white sugar sand beach! Our cosy year-round home offers spring and summer sun and fun and Fall’s quiet beauty. Winter is a quiet escape for special holiday memories with family, cocoa by the fireplace and sweeping views of majestic waves skinned with ice.

Please note: the home’s stairs were built like attic stairs: they have shallower treads and higher rise than standard steps. This could be challenging for anyone who physically has trouble with stairs. There is one stairway to get up to the main floor (kitchen, decks, living room, family room, guest room) from the driveway entry, and also another stairway up to the master bedroom level (with a full bath and second guest room). There’s a king bedroom and full bath on the main level that is ideal for anyone who wishes to avoid stairs once they’re in the house. It’s also possible to walk up the slope on the side of the house to the deck level and enter the main floor that way (Not recommended in winter due to slippery conditions).

The home has a warm and wonderful appeal. The kitchen has been renovated with slate, custom tile, stainless appliances, dramatic lighting and a convenient breakfast bar. The upstairs full bath has a large tiled shower overlooking the Lake.

The main floor full bath (with tub) is perfect for guests who want to stay on the main floor because it’s right next to the main floor king size guest room.

There’s a lovey & comfortable living room overlooking the lake with a fireplace and flatscreen TV. There’s also a spacious family room off the kitchen with two daybeds set up for lounging or TV watching, and a spacious dining table for 8, a workspace with phone and desk lamp, and a 2nd TV. Satellite WiFi is great for emails and texting. A landline with free long distance ensures you can stay in touch even if your cell phone has a poor signal.

Enjoy the view of the water while you soak in the hot tub and watch the kids play in the sandbox. Have an outdoor fire on the deck at night. Adirondack chairs for 6, outdoor dining table for 8, and 3 cool chairs down on the lake deck mean there are places you can get some alone time, even when you’re at the lake together.

The water has a very gradual slope that's great for kids: no drop off, lots of sand bars. You can wade out a very long way before you're in deep water. We provide life jackets in many sizes.

The deck area is enclosed to provide a secure area for children so you don't have to worry about a small person going to the lake alone. Combination locks on each gate are easy for grown ups, difficult for children.

We have all the beach towels you'll ever need: and we do the laundry after you leave.

You'll love the master bedroom with a view that quite simply takes your breath away and a wonderful Tempur-pedic mattress. Listen to the waves all night long.

The guest room upstairs has two double beds. The guest room downstairs has a kingsize bed. The family room has two twin size day beds. All linens and towels are provided; so you don’t have to stress planning your vacation.

We want you to enjoy what our family has enjoyed and we invite you to come to stay at this wonderful slice of paradise. You'll love your time here and leave refreshed and happy.

lovely host and house
The house has a beautiful view and an easy & sturdy one flight of stairs down to the water. Enjoyed 2 wonderful sunsets while sitting in the hot tub. Although there are of course neighbors on both sides, the house sits a bit in front of them both and had a private and "secluded" feel.

Fall beach getaway
Our family spent a long weekend here to enjoy the fall colors and the changing of the seasons. The property was perfect for us. The children especially enjoyed combing the beach for washed-up treasures. We had many long walks along the beach and a few excursions out to some of the nearby quaint communities, which are quiet now with the end of the busy season. The property was very clean and the waterfront views incredible. We enjoyed several colorful sunsets over the lake from the deck. Mary is a very responsive and informative host.

Another great stay
Second time here and already booked for Summer 2024. Thanks for sharing your place with us. Can’t beat the view from the primary bedroom or the hot tub and fire pit. Until we meet again.

Fall Getaway
We had a wonderful time! The house was exactly as listed, very clean and had everything we needed! The area was quiet, but as expected for time of the year. We still enjoyed eating at local spots, some shopping, dunes, golf, beautiful sunsets and freighter spotting! A nice little fall getaway! Mary was very informative and stayed in touch before and during the visit. Beautiful home with amazing views!

Gorgeous Spot
Well-appointed house and the views off of the deck were so gorgeous. My family had a great time and the sandy area in the backyard was perfect for young kids.

Wonderful for the whole family!
We all had a wonderful time. Mom (85) Hubbie, me and brother (60s) my daughter and her partner (30s) all acted like kids enjoying sun, clouds, rain, electrical storm (that was awesome watching it come across the lake) and the sand and water! Meals together no work talk what could be better. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
