Rare Find! Huge Beach & Luxe Woodsy Cabin

Enjoy a memorable escape on the beach AND in the woods at your private luxury cabin on Lake Michigan's beachfront. Feels like the North Woods, but is just 45 min north of Milwaukee.

Unique to the area is this special cabin surrounded by woods with a sandy beach for those who like days on the shore, making fireside memories, stargazing, walks, and fun surrounded by nature's best. Many activity options in the huge, grassy yard (basketball, old-fashioned play equipment, fire pits...)!

How nice is the cabin? Fully remodeled with newer high-quality furniture, beds, appliances, 2 washer/dryers. 3 BRs = 1 Queen, 1 Queen + pullout, 2 twins, plus a den with a pullout. 2 bath. This house is decorated and stocked, based on extensive travel experience, for those who like comfort, luxury, and cleanliness.

What is nearby? The cabin is located down a woodsy lane on a large Lake Michigan sandy beach. Steps from Kohler-Andrae State Park and minutes from Kohler's American Club & Spa, PGA-renowned Whistling Straights golfing, Sheboygan's Blue Harbor WaterPark, and other special small-town nooks, crannies, and watering holes. (Several less-expensive public golf-courses are close by as well.)

What can you do at Nelly's cabin? Spend a day on the beach, makes s’mores by the fire, play cards or yard games, read books, gaze at the stars and the wildlife, walk the shore, take a hike in the State Park. With fire pits and chairs on the beach and in the large yard, and a full size wood burning fireplace inside, you can play or rest with friends, or chill with a book and a glass of wine as you enjoy your time inside or outside on the property's several sitting areas. We provide plenty of outdoor chairs and blankets for your campfires, and some games/outdoor toys. (Public Pickleball and Tennis courts are a just a few minutes away in the town of Oostburg or Sheboygan.)

Nature lover? Nature is the norm as your senses are engaged by colorful leaves, starry skies, crashing waves, chirping birds, prancing deer, squirrels, frogs, turtles, and other wildlife in the woodsy scenery. For those who like to hike or go for a leisurely walk, there are several trails and walking dunes in Kohler Andre State Park a few hundred yards up the beach.

When should I rent? Whether you are planning your visit in the summer, fall, winter, or spring, there is nothing quite like being tucked the woods on a Great Lake with different views and experiences being offered each season. (Many of our visitors choose to re-rent, and summers and fall/winter holidays can fill up months in advance.)

We’re happy to answer your questions and wish you happy travels!!

What a great find!

Our family of seven loved this house! Everything was as advertised and even better! The beach was clean and very close, the deck was spacious and comfortable and the fire pits were large enough for our whole family to enjoy. The bed linens and towels were an expected high point. Top quality and an abundance of towels, both bath and beach!

Perfect Family Getaway

Our family loved Nelly’s Cabin and can’t wait to return! It was truly a unique combination of Northwoods cabin/pristine beachfront. The cabin was immaculately clean and well stocked with games, balls, beach toys, household items, and everything else a family of 6 would need. Lots of attention to detail with towels, utensils, and overall cleanliness. The large sandy beach was just a few steps away and stretched for miles in either direction. Amazing property for a family beach vacation close to home!

Magical Lake Michigan Cabin

This was our second stay at Nelly’s Cabin and we just adore it! The setting is unreal. You feel like you are at a quiet cabin in the woods and then you walk down a short path and you’re at a pristine Lake Michigan beach. It is such a unique property. The cabin itself is extremely clean and comfortable. We would definitely go back again!

Birthday Celebration

We decided to celebrate my milestone birthday in one of my favorite settings which is a cozy cabin in the woods near water. This accommodation did not disappoint. The property felt private and secluded with views of woods, Lake Michigan and even a few deer. The hosts thought of everything and there was not one thing they overlooked. We were there the weekend when the temps were -23 with the windchill, yet we were toasty warm! The hosts were wonderful and impressively responsive. We are hoping to return again! Thanks so much!!!

Great Family Beach Getaway

We spent a week with 6 adults and 2 children (4 & 14). Everybody enjoyed it. Comfortable Cabin with all the right updates (bathrooms & kitchen). Great grounds and the private beach is special. Really worked well for our kids and grandkids. Hope to make it an annual Beach Vacation!!

Cabin in the Woods

We had a very nice stay at Eric's cabin. He did everything he could to make our stay memorable. He brought in extra wood and more chairs for the fire pit. Our granddaughter loved watching the deer, wild turkeys and running on the beach. The cabin has a cottage feel and is a great place for a relaxing getaway. Dana

Wonderful stay at Nelly’s!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Nelly’s Cabin. This is our second time staying here (last time was in 2021). We enjoyed relaxing at the beach, hiking at Kohler Andrae, making s’mores, playing basketball, etc. We also just loved hiking down the gravel road through the wooded area around the property. Saw lots of deer, frogs, birds, etc. Seeing a barred owl on one of our evening hikes was awesome! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing spot. We hope to return again some day!😊

Beautiful cabin

It was the perfect unplugged family getaway! Beautiful property, well stocked home. The onlt negative things we experienced were all in regards to the weather and dead fish on the beach and obviously the host has no control over that. We felt very comfortable in the home and would book again in the future.

Lovely Lake Michigan Cabin

This is just the type of place I like to rent for a quiet weekend away with a group. Old time character with just the right amount of modern updates - dishwasher, comfortable beds and linens, decent bathrooms. The cabin is well stocked with games, firewood, blankets and towels. We did lots of cooking, had a sunny beach day and a rainy fireside day over the course of our weekend. We were lucky enough that there were no bugs in sight so we spent lots of time on the deck, had a bonfire and took naps in hammocks. The kitchen is a bit snug but suitable to fix meals for sharing. The cabin is set back off of the shore in the woods as pictured. We also took a few walks down the beach to the park and had a hysterical game of HORSE on the court. Would love to come back with my family. The setting is perfect for children as well with lots of playground amenities. Summer camp vibes for sure. What a bucolic spot - will definitely stay again if we have the chance.

Wonderful Lake Getaway

The location was just perfect being so close to the lake and we didn't lake for anything. The host had stocked the place with anything that we could have wanted. It was a little tricky finding the place the first time but after a drive by or two we figured it out. We wanted a place to get away and this place really fit the bill. Only wish is that we could have stayed longer. Can't recommend this place enough!
