Sister Lakes Cottage

The cottage offers a fully equipped kitchen for preparing meals. There is a dining area that accommodates 6. There are two full baths, newly renovated with walk in shower and the other with bathtub/shower combo. There are three bedrooms, each with a queen size bed and a closet. The Primary is en-suite. The living area seats approximately 7/8 with a leather sofa, leather loveseat, ottoman, 3 occasional chairs, 1 recliner. We have several games (chess, monopoly, cards)and books! Guests have access to the expansive wooded property filled with trees and perennial plant filled garden. There is a huge deck off the back of the cottage with dining table, dining chairs, umbrella and casual seating for 8 total. Play one of our games for outdoor fun-Corn Hole, Bocce Ball, Croquet or Yard Dice. Fire up the propane gas grill for some yummy BBQ. The main shaded garden has a natural fire pit with additional comfortable seating for 8. Full driveway accommodates approximately 4-6 cars. There is fishing allowed at Beach #2. The Main Beach is a half block away from the cottage and has a sandy area, a pier, swim platforms, picnic tables and a pavilion. This is private to the subdivision. There are two kayaks at the main beach for our guests to enjoy!

Lovely welcoming home.
This 3 bedroom home is absolutely beautiful. We really just needed a place to stay, we didn’t need lake front property. Our host was readily available by text and responded quickly. You can’t go wrong staying here. .

Great stay but not steps away from a beach.
Great place and clean but this is a block away from the beach, stating steps away from the beach is a bit of a stretch. Other than that nice pace to stay.

Beautiful home!
We stayed at Dawn's rental in late June for our son's wedding in Dowagiac and had a wonderful time! Her home is beautifully done and very comfortable and cozy. It is a very short walk to the lake and our kids took out the Kayaks and had a fun time. Dawn was excellent at communicating and it was so nice to come home to such a warm and welcoming place. We would all highly reccomend staying in this sweet home!

Cute place for a geraway
The house was updated and very clean. The house was quite roomy. The beach and fishing pier is a block away. The kitchen had everything for cooking. Having coffee available was nice.
