Secluded Woods Edge Cottage in Dowagiac MI.

The place itself is unique. You are in the forest and fields around. Silence. And the owners have taken care of everything for relaxation. Take food and disconnect from the world for a few days.

Quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. It was like staying in a sanctuary. There were places to sit and paths to walk. There were games to play outdoors, every amenity one could imagine and the softest bath towels we've ever used. There were homemade chocolate chip cookies on the counter--I would love to have the recipe....I wish we could have enjoyed more time exploring. I needed a place to stay to attend a funeral, but this place was a gift during an extremely difficult time and I will treasure our stay for the beauty and comfort we found here.

What a hidden gem this cottage is! If you are a nature lover, this is the place for you to stay. The hosts go above and beyond in their pursuit to helping you relax in the great outdoors. There are plenty of beds. The kitchen is supplied with Pampered Chef. Both indoor and outdoor games are available. This cottage is not one to just spend the night, it is a place to enjoy!

This property is so beautiful! The cottage had everything you would need for your stay. Secluded and private but close to Dowagiac and Cassopolis for food and supplies. So many places to relax and watch the birds. Loved it and highly recommend!

Staying here is always a joy. The grounds are great, the cabin comfortable, and the hosts very responsive and helpful.

2nd time staying at this cottage. Its so peaceful and secluded. Loved soaking in the hot tub after a day of hiking

We really enjoyed this home. It was very secluded and clean. The host was attentive. We look forward to staying in the future.

This was the perfect retreat for our boys’ weekend. The property is enormous but walkable and immaculately maintained with a wide variety of things to do and see while remaining secluded in what felt like our own personal state park. The cottage was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed every one of the homemade cookies the hosts left for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and each of us plans to return with other friends and family members.

Property was very nice

Secluded, peaceful, but also many activities available on the property without ever having to leave a really beautiful and fun place to stay

It was a beautiful house with an amazing property. Thank you for sharing your space. It was a relaxing weekend. We enjoyed the pond and the trails. Great place to get away for a weekend. Highly recommend to anyone who needs to ground and to relax. Thank you Lincoln and Shelly!

Beautiful property...nice walking paths!

The pictures do not do this place justice. The cottage is super cute and very secluded. The natural plantings and meadows with the mowed paths make this a nature lovers dream! Highly recommend and look forward to staying here again!

This place exceeded our expectations. It is a Hidden Gem or a Secret garden back in the woods through the corn fields. It's like a whole new world of exploration and beauty. You instantly feel calm and connected to nature here. My family and I felt so at home. We love exploring and there's plenty to explore around here. We did not want to leave.Shelly and Lincoln thought of everything. You can feel the love that they have for this home and the grounds. Will definitely return. *we got home yesterday. I dreamed of this place last night and woke up thinking about it today.

It was a lot of fun, great house and property

The Woods Edge cottage is simply magical. The home itself is beautiful, clean and has everything you could need for a short or long stay. It was just my son and I staying to celebrate his birthday but the home would be comfortable for a larger family as well. The real treat are the grounds. There are so many paths through meadows and woods with little spots to sit. My favorite was having morning coffee in the middle of the meadow and listening to the birds. My Merlin bird app even identified some rare birds that aren't seen as much due to disappearing wetlands. Once you see how much effort Lincoln's family has put into rewilding their property you will understand why it is such a wildlife sanctuary and I feel lucky to have experienced myself. This is my dream to live somewhere like this and I hope more people can enjoy it as well. Also the owners were super responsive although I honestly didn't need anything except to check out their sweet farmstand!

Wood Crest Cottage was an excellent choice for my first visit to Michigan. Morning coffee experiencing nature in the beautiful setting and evening soaks in the hot tub were perfect bookends to days of exploring beaches and the wine trail. The carefully curated grounds, interior and amenities insured a peaceful and relaxing stay. Anyone considering booking this property should not hesitate to choose it.

My wife and I were looking for a quick getaway for 2 days !! I must say this by far was a great pick ! Very clean property tucked back in the woods. Just bring what you are cooking !! Everything else it there for you !! Thank you !!!

We stayed for just 2 nights but we really enjoyed our time! Loved the trails and scenery! Hot tub was great. We had beautiful 60 degree weather and the hot tub really helped us enjoy our stay. House was stocked! Bed was very comfortable!

The cottage is adorable and the property is awesome. My teenage boys spend hours each day fishing at the pond. We loved using the fire pit at the pond and spending time on The kayaks. The trails were great. The setting is peaceful and private. The hosts were kind, very communicative and accommodating. Everything was clean and well taken care of, except the outdoor furniture could use some refreshing.

I took my son and his friend to meet my family from Wisconsin as this house was about half way for both of us. The pictures and listing don't do the house justice! We absolutely loved our time, we just wished it was warmer to enjoy hiking the property more, hopefully we can meet there again! Thank you to the wonderful hosts! Ten out of ten!

Best place to feel free
