Superb!
Fantastic cottage with only steps from the beach & private access to beach. Accommodations were lovely with soft colors & comfy bedding for The bedrooms. Our girls enjoyed having a trundle bed so all 4 could share a room!! Super to have a shed with a wagon & sand toys plus floats!! Will definitely return for more fun!!

Cozy, nicely outfitted house just a short walk to gorgeous, private beach.
We cannot overstate how much we loved our stay here! This house is clearly beloved and is well-stocked with all of the cooking and beach supplies you might need for a weekend away. Quiet, laid-back neighborhood, friendly neighbors waved hello to us every time they passed. The beach was clean, quiet, and BEAUTIFUL. We will absolutely be back!

After a long winter we were glad to spend a few days by the lake. The cottage was spotless, full of light and a great place to relax. The beach is beautiful and just a short walk away.

Home away from home
This was our 2nd time staying here. It was so nice being familiar with the house, beach, and area. House is light and airy, neighborhood great for walks, and we basically had our own beach for the week. All was wonderful.

My wife and two kids, 4 and 6, spent a wonderful week at this lovely cottage. The house overall was very nice with plenty of space for us all. The only minor improvement would be a more thorough cleaning of the house.

What a nurturing place! Cozy Retreat is immaculately clean, comfortable beds, and a well stocked “cooks kitchen“. The hot tub is just steps out the back door and was lovely during the cool Michigan evenings. Already looking forward to going back!

Good Times in Lakeside MI
The 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cottage. The house was wonderful and spacious. The kitchen was well equipped and the storage shed was loaded with great beach toys. We enjoyed cooking, kayaking, biking, beaching and golfing. We will return next summer. Thank you to our hosts for a terrific stay!

This was a perfect rental for our family for Christmas weekend!!!
The booking and rental process was very easy and the host did a great job of communicating prior to our visit. The property was very clean, well furnished, and was perfect for our family (parents and 3 teenage children) for Christmas! We had a couple of minor issues during our stay but the owners quickly replied to our messages and took care of things. I would highly recommend staying here and hope to do so again sometime soon!!!

Wonderful house, close to the beach.
This is a beautiful house, about a block and down some stairs from the beach. Janette provided all the beach gear we could want plus more. There were six of us, 5 adults +1 three year old. We were very comfortable and had plenty of room.

Everything was wonderful!
We had a great stay at the Cozy Cottage. The home is stocked with everything you could possibly need! We had plenty of space (Me, my husband, and 3 & 5 year old boys) to relax and enjoy Lakeside. The beach was a quick walk down the road and then about 25 steps down. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed, plus a garage full of fun toys and chairs, etc for the beach. I already want to come back next summer!

Amazing house and beach!!
Janette was an amazing host! Her house is beautiful - a perfect beach oasis. It was open and airy, impeccably clean, had so many amenities (hot tub, tons of beach equipment, full kitchen supplies, comfy beds, plentiful towels, cute patio and porch, etc). We loved it! We plan on making this an annual adventure. Can’t wait for those union pier sunsets next year. Thanks, Janette!
