lovely little cottage! provides everything you need and more. The backyard is amazing but unfortunately it was a little too cold for us to enjoy it, but we still got use of the hot tub which was very nice! we definitely want to return
This place was amazing, beautiful, and best of all for me was the cleanliness. Wonderful stay, hot tub right on deck outside the living room and bedroom.
Our stay with Jerry was a great home base for all our day trips to visit Picture Rock National Shoreline and several days hiking in Hiawatha National Forest
It was clean and had everything you could think of that you might need. Hot tub was great to relax in at the end of the day. Jerry was so nice and responsive pretty much immediately to all of my questions. We loved our stay!!
We will be back for sure. Beautiful views and convenient location. Restaurant next door had great food and service. Host was very communicative and the place was clean and hospitable.
Enjoyable trip, centrally located Norway MI (hiking and rafting Piers Gorge) and Marquette (hiking Sugar Loaf Mountain and the quaint downtown). Also enjoyed Ludington Park disc golf and the hit tub on premises. Excellent all around
Nicely stocked, clean place! Host easy to communicate with. The hot tub was amazing! Beach is shared with restaurant deck and not sandy but there are multiple options for a sandy beach within 5 minute drive! Overall a great place
My husband and I were looking for a nice getaway with our dogs. This property was like a dream come true. The house itself was fantastic. It was a cozy 1 bedroom nicely decorated and very clean. The deck was very relaxing. The best part for us was that it was on Lake Michigan. The view from the backyard was great. We had a nice private fenced in yard for our dogs, but outside of the fenced in area was extra special. Our dogs were in heaven, they loved the access to the lake and we had the whole afternoon for them to enjoy it. Jerry the owner was easy to communicate with. We already recommended this place to our friends and family and will be going back again ourselves. Thanks for the great stay!
Nicely stocked house! We had a nice stay for 3 nights.
It isn't a perfect house.
1) The water is STINKY! To the point you don't want to shower or even turn on the hot water.
2) The house is 25 yards off of a highway with LOTS of transport trucks going by. If you are a light sleeper just know this. We closed the bedroom door and that helped but didn't eliminate the road noise.
3) The bed is rock hard! I've never been on a bed this firm! I'm 6'1" and about 195 and I don't think my body even broke the surface of this mattress! I'm not even exaggerating.
4) I love hot tubs. This one is super clean! Most of the jets don't function though. That was a bummer!
5) The shower is tiny and the floor is spongy! It grossed out my girlfriend.
Again, everything is so clean and we appreciate the stay. A few things and this could be a perfect place, at least for us.
It’s our third year staying at this location and we absolutely love this place! Everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. The location couldn’t be better and there’s still so much more to do and see in this beautiful land we call God’s country.
Perfect Little Gem - I Want it to Stay a Secret! ;)
This was the absolute perfect, private little cottage for me & my pup. I was worried it’d be noisy or feel busy being so close to the restaurant but if blindfolded, I would’ve never known it was there! Also loved that we felt we had the beach to ourselves too, with the restaurant set so far from it. Jerry has done a great job of setting up the accommodations to make the backyard feel super private too. Selfishly hoping it’s perfection stays a secret so I can always come back! 😁
Jerry went above and beyond to help with our vehicle issue. His Breezy Point Bar and Grill had excellent food and his staff were very friendly. With serious vehicle issue we were limited to using the facilities available but it was great walking our dog to the lake, playing corn hole and using the hot tub and eating at the restaurant. Would definitely do it again without the car issues.
Our family had the best time celebrating our daughter’s birthday at Jerry’s place. What a view! It was a perfect stay. We had some delicious pizza and cheese curds from Breezy Point Bar next door. Best part was listening to music and relaxing in hot tub. My ten year old son cried happy tears, my daughter squealed with excitement when we arrived thanking me over and over for her birthday trip.
