About this property

Charming Lake Michigan Cottage in Stevensville near Grand Mere State Park

Ready for a great lake vacation? This bright, adorable cottage is just what you need for an idyllic beach getaway. Nestled near quaint Grand Mere Park, you'll be steps from the beach, sand dunes, fishing, walking trails, and parks. This cottage is close to the dozens of wineries and craft breweries in southwest Michigan. After you enjoy all Grande Mere has to offer, you can relax on the large screened-in porch, or prepare dinner in the spacious, modern kitchen. This cottage boasts an open, airy floor plan, and two cozy bedrooms, so you can have a great night's rest after fun-filled Lake Michigan days. The cottage sleeps up to 6 adults with 1 queen bed, 1 full bed, and a queen sleeper sofa. While this cottage is not lakefront, it is only a 5 minute walk from Lake Michigan public beach access. We are located off I-94 just a short 90 minutes drive from Chicago, 2.5 hours from Detroit and 3 hours from Indianapolis.

Please note that current water levels have caused some erosion on the nearest public beach as several trees fell into the water. Most of these trees have been cut and cleared but there are still some portions of the trees/brush on the beach. The beach is still accessible and useable, however it is not as picturesque due to the erosion. There are also two other beaches very close: (1) Lincoln Township Beach which is about 1.5 miles away at 3655 N Lake Path, Stevensville and (2) Grand Mere State Park which is 1 mile away. Note that at Grand Mere State Park it is about a 15 minute walk from the parking lot to the beach. Other great beaches in the area are Silver Beach in St. Joseph and Weko Beach in Bridgman.

The beach is still useable and the beach conditions could change at any time based on the weather and tides.

Cute cabin in the woods
We loved the secluded cabin vibe. The house was clean and welcoming. We had a little trouble finding it in the dark but the host was super communicative and helped us through the check in process. Would stay again!

Perfect Beach Vacation
We loved the location, which is within walking distance to two different beaches. The cottage has a well-equipped kitchen, which we appreciated, and we spent most of our time in the screened in porch. I would definitely recommend this property.

Great stay
Stayed here with family (4 kids that were 11 and under) and enjoyed ourselves! The private beach that is just a couple minute walk away is great. The house is very nice, clean, and a great location to Grand Mere, St. Joe, and all your Pure Michigan-ing!

A great get away
My wife and I absolutely loved the cabin! As a couple that lives and works in under resourced neighborhoods in Chicago, it was medicinal for us! Relaxing by the fire pit, cozy, clean cabin itself, enclosed front porch, a great space to work, living room so comfortable to watch tv, everything about it, so nice and clean and updated, and my wife loved the decor!

Family trip
Nice little cottage in a quiet area near the lake. The cottage had everything we needed for our stay. There was a fire pit and firewood that was perfect for roasting marshmallows. Beach towels, chairs, and a caddy for heading to the beach. The table on the screened in porch is where we ate most of our meals. Was comfortable for our family. Room for a pack n play in the bedroom. Temps were in the high 80s when we arrived and the window air conditioners kept the cottage comfortable.

Nice cottage near Grand Mere State Park
We were looking for beach cottage within walking distance to Lake Michigan. The cottage has been nicely updated inside and was a great place to stay for our family of four. It is hidden back in the Grand Mere State Park and we enjoyed hiking into the park to go to the beach. It would be perfect if there was beach access right across the street but the beach in Grand Mere is worth the hike in. We appreciate that the cottage was very clean and had a well appointed kitchen.

Summer getaway
Clean, comfortable and well equipped home close to the lake. We loved the screened porch for chats, meals and watching/listening to the birds. The host was very responsive and provided accurate information. The local beach access is a little climb, great for sunsets. The township beach is minutes away, and the tree lined walk is beautiful(no restrooms). St Joe's is close by, for swimming, sun bathing, shopping and eating. It was a great place to spend father's day weekend with the family.

Pure Michigan Experience
We enjoyed the stay thoroughly. It was accessible, easy to find and the check in and out was very streamlined. The cottage was tidy, organized and family friendly. It was a great place to land at the end of our busy days. The beds were soft, towels and bathroom very nice. We made use of the convenient washer and dryer. Location-wise the neighborhood setting in Grandmere Park is beautiful. We will definitely plan to return. The only comment I have would be to replace the water filter in the fridge for faster water consumption! Otherwise everything was perfect. :)

Cute
Cute little house. Worked just fine for my wife and two young kids. It's a little off the beaten path but easy to find. The beach is within a couple min of walking. But due to erosion it was not ideal for a beach day. Also there was a broken key in the lock box. Not sure what it went to. But we were still able to gain access to the house with no problems. The host was very quick to respond. Overall happy with our stay.

Amazing getaway!
We stayed two nights in this lovey cabin. The location is perfect for the local beaches and towns. The cabin is really well equipped - probably the best place we’ve ever been to - and they have anything and everything you need. The ROKU TV was great and we were able to stream online well, the WiFi was really speedy and no issues. Shower was amazing and perfectly sized for taller people (husband was thrilled). No problems with the stay at all. I’m a clean freak and the whole property and grounds were clean and very well maintained. I felt comfortable and in a home from home. Thank you so much for letting people stay at this beautiful place.
