About this property

Cedar Valley Cottage - Ideal Location. Full Amenities.

Take it easy at this unique, tranquil, secluded, and pet-friendly getaway.

Situated at the edge of Pinckney Recreation Area, you have it all: hiking, biking, swimming, and kayaking at Silver Lake; in the winter hiking and ice fishing!   

But even more:  You will find the perfect intersection of nature and art.  An extensive art collection has been integrated into the decor of this cottage ranging from original world art to famous and not so famous, even whimsical, contemporary art by local artists.

Nearby Villages worth visiting are Pinckney (7 minutes), Dexter (12 min), Chelsea, (20 min), Ann Arbor (25 min), Brighton/Howell (25 min)

This 450' 2-story cottage has a surprisingly spacious feel and is nestled in its own wooded valley. You can grill, make a bonfire, or just relax and enjoy the quiet. Wildlife abounds year round.  This is a one-of-a-kind experience not to be missed.

One day stay does not do this cottage and its magic any justice. There is so much to do in this area (dining, entertaining) and just enjoying the cedar valley. The solitude and the beauty of the grounds as well as all of the art take one away from the grinds of daily life. I will definitely come back for a longer vacation. The host was responsive and easily available. The chocolates, the greeting card, and the unique 3-D printed gift box of the Tiny House were particularly charming surprises. Thanks, ET for all the personal touches.
