Located in a unique and secluded setting away from busy streets, you’re only a short 2-3 minute walk to the beautiful sandy Lake Michigan beaches.

Cottage Amenities
The cottage sleeps 7 comfortably (in beds) with an additional pullout couch (new memory foam mattress) and space for air mattresses.

The windows, skylights and lofted ceilings throughout the house flood the space with light. The master bedroom suite has a queen size bed and attached full bath. There are 2 additional bedrooms that share the 2nd bathroom just off the living room. Bedroom 2 also has a queen bed and Bedroom 3 has a bunk bed with a double bed on the bottom and a single bed on the top. The pullout couch is located in the front sun room with double doors from the living room that you can close for additional privacy. All linens provided.
Eat your meals on the large screened-in porch (table comfortably seats 8). There is a gas grill available on the front deck and the kitchen has all the cooking essentials. The laundry room has a washer and dryer along with iron and ironing board. Bath and beach towels provided. If the hydrangeas are in bloom, feel free to cut some fresh flowers for your dinner table!
Paradise Villas and Parking
The cottage is located within Paradise Villas, a tranquil neighborhood with a pebbled walkway that leads from the cottages to the main streets and our private parking lot. The setting is ideal for young children as they don’t have to cross any big streets to get to the beach and there is plenty of space for them to run around.
