Lake MI Private Beach; fireplace, Sunsets. Close to Fishtown & Sleeping Bear

Beautiful Lake Michigan waterfront in Good Harbor Bay. Located between Glen Arbor and Historic Fishtown with easy access to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. 122 feet of private beach frontage with shallow entry and sand bar for perfect family swimming. Breathtaking hikes and bike trails can be found in every direction. This all season 3Bed/2Bath Cottage offers gorgeous sunset views over the manitou islands through large bay windows across the living room and main bedroom. Views of Pyramid Point are to the south and Whaleback to the north. Other favorite amenities include fireplace ( wood provided) , a large master bedroom with lake views, and an outdoor deck to dine in the breeze while taking in the view of Lake Michigan. Two kayaks, cable, high speed internet, and pantry/cookware necessities are included. Grill on the weber gas grill on the deck while watching the sun set over the national park lakeshore pyramid point. There are two more bedrooms toward the back of the cottage, one with a twin and bunkbed, the other with a Queen. The pullout couch offers another two spots to sleep (sleeps 9 total). This serene setting offers the perfect opportunity to relax, explore, and take in the historic national shoreline. Reliable high speed internet. Winter sunsets in front of a cozy fire offer a romantic winter get an away. Great location for wine tours and fall colors!

My family and I had a wonderful stay over Labor Day weekend. The weather was absolutely perfect for long strolls on the beach and incredible star-gazing at night. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, and we left feeling rested and rejuvenated. We hope to be back!

Beautiful home, beautiful lake views. No visible sunsets or stars but that was a weather issue. Hiked Sleeping Bear dunes, visits to Traverse City and lots of other quaint towns still decorated for Christmas. Loved it all!Highly recommend, must be extraordinary in the summer months.

My family and I have vacationed in this area for decades and this is one of the best places we've stayed at. Owner was responsive. The location is idea. The view is spectacular and from the Master Bedroom you can hear the slow waves rolling in at night (summer). Ideal.
