Mother Daughters getaway

The cottage was beautifully decorated. We thought we would be on the lake instead of a channel but it was still beautiful. Great set up outside and this time of year so quiet. Bretta was very responsive. We had a great stay.

Fabulous location !

This beautifully decorated property was very clean, comfortable and a pleasure to stay at . The waterfront location is epic as it is also minutes away from Silver Lake dunes . There is plenty of outdoor seating to relax on . Kayaks are also provided for extra fun! We also loved watching the turtles bask in the sun on the wooden raft in the canal. The host is very friendly and readily available to answer any questions or concerns . We would definitely return to this vacation property in the future!

Family Vacation 2023

This place is beautiful! It was perfect for our family. Location with waterfront was perfect for my grandkids. Spacious and clean. Outdoor seating was amazing - so many options. Owners were great to deal with and very responsive. The only downside I have is the one bathroom. For a larger family - it’s a little challenging! Other than that we would not only stay here again, we would recommend it to anyone else seeking a home away from home for a summer vacation .

About the host

Hosted by Bretta Young

We are John & Bretta Young, both Michigan residents since birth. We have enjoyed the Silver Lake area & the sand dunes for 20+ years with our two children. We have been campers to lake front cottage owners and everything in between. We enjoy our time at the cottage as well as other hobbies. Utah is our favorite state to visit! We enjoy mountain biking, repelling, boating, canyoneering and spending time with friends & family. We welcome you to stay with us and experience this amazing area for yourself. We hope wherever you choose to stay you make memories to last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

Spacious family cottage for rental. This is a place for a quiet retreat away from the busyness of life, but close enough to downtown if you want to take in the food, shops and activities. Down town as well as the dunes are just a couple minutes away and offer several places to eat, a mini roller coaster, bumper boats, mini golf (2), go carts, zip line and some of the best pizza you've ever had from the Pizza Factory!! We offer a well furnished and decorated space you are sure to love. We have four entertaining spaces that overlook the water, an attached spacious deck, lower covered deck, back deck and a patio down by the water with a firepit. Bring your boat or jet ski, just let us know ahead of time. Swim right off the dock! The lake has a no wake zone, no wake before 11:00 am and after 7:30 pm.

What makes this property unique

Close to all the hustle and bustle of Silver Lake Sand Dunes but the quiet serene experience of a privately owned lake front property. Great swimming, kayaking, boating, biking/walking trails and golf near by, with night time fires roasting marshmallows all in a fully furnished cottage where all you really need is friends and family to share it with!
