About this property

Convenient location, relaxed atmosphere, close beaches, and good food nearby!

This is an affordable Michigan cottage that sleeps up to 6 people. It has brand new central AC and gas furnace, keyless & contactless entry, complete kitchen, outdoor space, and comes professionally cleaned and sanitized with fresh linens, towels, coffee station with grounds, and basic soaps.

We have updated many parts of the cottage (see pictures) and continue to do so, however the cottage will show its age and character at times. If you are looking for a white-glove experience, this may not be the best option for you. However, if you are looking for a clean , comfortable, & affordable space, very close to beaches, sitting on 1-acre of green land and well-positioned between Saint Joseph & South Haven (in a quiet area of Hagar Shores), with all of the amenities of a home, this is a great option for your stay!

Fantastic Location!

If you are a beach-goer, there are several Lake Michigan options within a very short distance! No complaints about the rental. Excellent accommodations! Host responds immediately!

Perfect for our week at the Lake

The property was easy to find, directly off the main road, and great parking right next to our cottage. There were 6 of us total and the space was perfect for what we needed it for. The owner was VERY responsive to my emails with questions. It was right next to the lake and such easy driving everywhere we went. If we go back to Lake Michigan we would stay there again.

Terrible Bed and loud highway noise

We found the mattress to be unacceptable and the Blue Star Highway noise was excessively loud. We were exhausted and sore by the time we left the house. We contemplated ending our vacation a day early so we could get rest and relaxation at home. Additionally, we found ourselves driving back and forth to St Joe or South Haven throughout our trip. It’s walking distance to a pizza joint and that’s about it. Drew’s description is accurate about being right off the road, however we didn’t think it would be as bad as it was. There were lots of Harley’s waking us up throughout every night! We still feel disbelief in the amount of money we spent for this experience.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew

We have been travelling to Southwest Michigan for summer vacations and winter getaways for years to enjoy everything this area has to offer. The sandy beaches, small town charm, plethora of wineries, relaxed lake setting, and beautiful sunsets are only a small sample of what drew us here. Finally, a couple of years ago, we were able to move permanately to the area and call Southwest Michigan home. We are now excited for you to share memorable experiences in this little slice of heaven!

Why they chose this property

This property reminds us of the cozy cottages that we used to stay in when traveling to this area. Built decades ago and newly renovated, this cottage offers all of the amenities you need while reserving the relaxed, quaint setting that you yearn for when visiting the lake.

Known for its sandy beaches and dense woods, Hagar Shores is conveniently located right north of Saint Joseph and just south of South Haven. There is a pizza & burger place right across the street that is walkable. There is also a Dollar General about a 1/2 mile up the road for any last minute needs.

The cottage sits right off of two lane highway M-63. M-63/Blue Star Highway offers the scenic route connecting St. Joseph and South Haven. Along this route you will have convenient access to free public beaches , state parks and bike trails. While our area is generally a quiet location, the convenient Blue Star Highway may have peak times of road noise.

What makes this property unique

The fast WiFi allows you to work while onsite, or stream movies on the Roku stick included on the TV. There are many outdoor offerings at the cottage, including a fire pit, hammocks, picnic area, and corn hole boards. We encourage you to relax, settle in, and make yourself at home ... and most importantly, remember that you will now be on Lake Time!
