Amazing Views of Lake Michigan

**For summer 2025: We're offering 7-night minimum stays (Saturday to Saturday) starting May 31st through September 30th.

ABOUT THE PROPERTY

Welcome to Sand Beach Cottage, where the beauty of Lake Michigan meets the comfort of a private retreat. Nestled just steps from the water’s edge, this cozy gem boasts access to what many would argue is one of Wisconsin’s best beaches—pristine, private, and wonderfully expansive.

A winding grass driveway leads you to the 1,150-square-foot cottage, tucked on 1.1 acres and surrounded by cedar forest on three sides. The result? Total privacy and front-row seats to stunning 180° lake views. Plus, direct beach access makes your path to paradise all too easy.

Inside, the main living area has been thoughtfully renovated to bring the outdoors in, with uninterrupted views of both the sparkling lake and the cedar-lined woods. Facing south, the cottage is bathed in natural light, with a living and dining area that perfectly frames the scenery.

The recently upgraded kitchen is fully equipped to make cooking a breeze. And for those who aren’t fans of well water, we’ve added a reverse osmosis (RO) faucet—because even your drinking water should feel like a treat!

The cottage comfortably sleeps six guests across three cozy bedrooms (two queen beds and a bunk room) and features two full bathrooms. The lake-side master suite now includes a newly renovated en-suite bathroom, offering a touch of luxury to your stay. And yes, we’re all about comfort: beds come with freshly upgraded luxury linens and duvet covers, all professionally laundered.

THE EXTRAS THAT MAKE YOUR STAY EFFORTLESS

We’ve thought of everything to make your getaway as seamless as possible. Need to do laundry? There’s a washer and dryer--with detergent--in one of the bathrooms. Summer heat? Whole-house A/C has you covered. Want to freshen up with a view? Check out our enclosed outdoor shower—it’s a guest favorite!

Cook outdoors with the Weber gas grill, or cozy up for a movie night with complimentary access to Netflix, Prime, Disney+, and AppleTV+ (sorry, no cable). For family fun, the cottage is stocked with games, books, and toys for all ages—and we’re happy to customize toy offerings upon request.

Of course, no beach day is complete without the right gear. You’ll find beach chairs, chaise lounges, umbrellas, boogie boards, child-size life jackets, and plenty of beach toys waiting for you.

YOUR FRONT-ROW SEAT TO RELAXATION

The spacious deck off the living room is your go-to spot for morning coffee with the sunrise or a moonlit cocktail while listening to the waves. Between the unbeatable views, the pristine sand beach, and (as our guests rave) the outdoor shower, Sand Beach Cottage is more than a getaway—it’s the perfect escape.

Simply the best!

If you’re lucky enough to find this property available, don’t think twice and book it. We had a wonderful stay due in large part to the hospitality of the owner. She made sure that every comfort was provided- literally from an incredibly well stocked kitchen and three different kinds of shampoo to beach balls, fishing net and water toys for our children. The waterfront view is mesmerizing and the home is beautifully decorated and spotless. The beds are very comfortable. The home is well positioned tucked away on a small, quaint road with access to a little creek for fishing and exploring. White dunes park and cave point county park are just a few minutes away. Thank you Jennelle for opening your beautiful home to us. We appreciate all that you did to make our stay special!

Short Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Can't beat the location or the views from the living room and deck area. Property owner was extremely communicative and responsive. Bathrooms/bedrooms are extremely clean and have been updated recently. Perfect size for our family of 5. Due to the water level on the lake, not much of a beach on property but the pier is short walk/drive and has a great beach for the little ones to play on. Would love to stay again!

Beautiful location

You can't get any closer to the beach. This property is lovely for early morning walks on the beach with a coffee. You also get to sleep to the sound of waves from your bedroom. The house is very kid friendly (toys, highchair, pac n play, and kids plates and utensils) and the owners are quick to respond and very accommodating. My family and I would definitely stay again.

Right On The Water. Welcoming Host.

My wife and infant daughter stayed for a week. This place has one of the best views and best sandy beach on the peninsula. Convenient into town for dinner or an afternoon shopping trip. The owners are very engaged and have clearly thought of the little touches that make it easy to spend your time relaxing on the beach instead of running to the store for condiments or a needed toiletry item. We've stayed at dozens of vrbos and this ranks along the very best. Not a fancy place, but a lake house retreat shouldn't be.

The property was beautifully situated and perfectly maintained

We had a wonderful family vacation there— it felt like our very own private resort. We really savored the constant sight and sound of the water. We had everything we needed—and very comfy beds and furniture! The owners showed a lot of thoughtful attention to details. It is a vacation our family will long remember.
