About this property

Family Friendly Mears Cottage - Walk to the Beach!

  • Escape to the Great Lakes State with your family or friends and make this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Silver Lake vacation rental your next home away from home! This cottage features a fully equipped kitchen and access to Lake Michigan and Little Sable Lighthouse views under a mile away. Sip your morning coffee on the deck, then head down to the beach and catch some rays! Later, enjoy a cold beer at Big Hart Brewery or wine tasting at Fox Barn. End the night with roasted s’mores under starry skies.
