We have rented here a few times and the location keeps us coming back. The cottage is getting a bit run down & definitely needs some updates. If rustic beauty is your thing than this is for you. When we had issues, Diane was right on it which is a plus.
The property is right on the beach and very private. The cabin is very comfortable and well equipped.
Outstanding north Michigan beach property
Lovely property with gorgeous, private, sandy beach. Our family of five had the best time and loved the beautiful views, cool breezes and calming Lake Michigan waves. This was our first vacation bringing our golden retriever and she loved being with us, playing and relaxing on the beach. This was our second trip to Cross Village and we love it. Thanks for a memorable week!
Enjoyed the sunrise and sunsets, nice beach-walks, sounds of waves at night. So happy the store in town is open now. Looking forward to see how the Petosky Brewery works out! Thanks Diane for letting us stay here. We really enjoyed ourselves.
Relatively private beach and crystal clear water steps from the deck made for a wonderfully relaxing getaway. My dog loved splashing through the waves although the water was rather chilly for those of us with only 2 legs. Great little local farm right around the corner. House was very comfortable. Would love to come back later in the summer when we can actually get in the water. Thanks for sharing your charming family lake house!
The perfect place to get away from it all. The deck is almost close enough to jump into Lake Michigan with beautiful views in either direction. We made sure we were around for sunsets every night. We loved all the raw wood inside and you could tell there was a lot of history behind the cottage. Exactly what we needed. Thanks!
Beautiful spot on the lake, super easy access to water. Thanks for sharing!
My husband & I, along with our 18 year old daughter, had a wonderful weeklong visit to this lovely beachfront cottage! The lake views are incredible & the cottage has many special touches! Our week was relaxing from start to finish! Diane checked in via text with some little details at the very start of our trip & we always felt we could reach out to her at any time. We are planning a return visit next year!
This was our third time staying at this beautiful property, and it has been great every time! The cottage is very clean, comfortable and homey, and right on the water. Communication with the owner has been great! We love it!
