About this property

Sunset Lodge - Right on Lake Michigan

At Sunset Lodge, enjoy two charming cottages nestled in the cedars on your private beach on Lake Michigan. There are two bedrooms and a bath in the main cottage along with a living room with leather furniture, gas fireplace on granite hearth, dining area with bay window, and a fully applianced kitchen and study area, large deck, covered porches and fire pit on the beach.

UPDATE: We are doing deep cleaning for your stay.

Wi-Fi and cable now available - We haven't had these amenities in the past because everyone was busy outside or doing side trips. But, some of you may be spending more time at Sunset Lodge so we wanted to make sure you're connected and entertained.

The design is “cottage style” with white painted wood walls and ceiling that contrast with the hardwood floors, cherry cabinetry and granite countertops. Eclectic accessories make this the most unique cottage in the area. Enjoy the sun and watch the freighters float by from the deck or covered porch. For a special stay, “Moonlight” is a separate one bedroom cedar cabin with half bath a few steps from the cottage and right on the beach. Both cottages are included in the rental.

RATES: We rent weekly only with a changeover on Saturday, (even though VRBO displays rates on a daily basis.)

Summer Base Rate: $1,750 per week

Early/Late Summer: $975 per week

PLEASE NOTE: Limit 6 guests. Weekly rentals only - Saturday to Saturday.

UP vacation
The property and house far exceeded our expectations and online summary The cleanliness of the house was outstanding and the comfort of the house was superb. The Lake Michigan view was the best part. There’s literally a view from every room in the house. And the Moonlight cottage was adorable and also very comfortable with awesome views of the lake. Will be going next year also

Amazing cottage with amazing views!
By far the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in! The house had everything we could have asked for; wonderfully stocked kitchen, comfy and nice furniture, peace and quiet. My husband and I stayed a week and explored the UP while using Sunset Lodge as our home base. The location was perfect and we loved watching the freighters go by every day. It was a bit chilly during our stay so the heaters in the cottage and the extra blankets came in handy! We enjoyed cooking dinner in the kitchen that had every utensil and appliance you could ask for, including an air fryer! We loved being so close to the lake and hearing the waves, even while in the house. Thank you for a lovely week!

Relaxing and enjoyable
We enjoyed our stay and would love to return. The cottage and cabin were just as described. The kitchen is very well stocked with all the essentials to eat in. We especially loved sitting out on the deck and having a nightly fire on the beach. We highly recommend this property. I only gave four stars on cleanliness due to cobwebs in both the cottage and cabin. However, everything else was just perfect!

Perfect!
Arrival was smooth and house was perfect. Kitchen had everything you could ask for. Views were spectacular and home was very comfortable. Great place to relax on the beach (water shoes a definite). Bonfires on the beach are a great way to spend a summer evening. Our family gives this rental a 5 stars.

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

Relax to the waves of Lake Michigan and watch the freighters float by. Watch the sunset over St. Helene Island. Day trips abound in the area for every interest, including nearby Mackinac Island.
