Spectacular private Lake Michigan beach access

This house sits in a private gated community with access to a very unique and spacious private community beach. The beach has a small river that flows on one side of the beach into Lake Michigan, perfect for young kids to splash around in. There is probably 100-150 feet of Lake Michigan frontage, and the beach is about 40 yards deep, very rare at a time when many private beaches have washed or eroded away.

Fabulous CabInn with Touches of Luxury

My family and I enjoyed a wonderful stay at this amazingly stunning log house in the woods! We stayed a week with my four-year-old grandson, who, along with his Grammy, was in awe of the home, the woods and the beautiful beaches--especially Brandywine. The soft and cozy linens managed to put that little bit of icing on the cake! The stairway to the second level was a bit tricky, especially for little ones, but we were informed and used the stairs cautiously. The owner of the property was only a text or call away when we had questions or needed to iron out a minor glitch or two. This was one of my best vacations ever!!! BTW: You may need an escort from the main entrance if you've never been here before. We were fortunate to have a gal pull up in a golf cart and lead us to the CABINN! The community gets an A+ for friendliness:)
