Carrie's Cottage - Charming Duplex Style 3 Bedroom Cottage with Beach Access!

Really liked the layout, the added privacy of the studio was great though it could use a microwave, table or desk and a place to put clothes. The beach is great and the kayaks are a great added bonus.

Great location and wonderful private beach access. Home itself was a bit dated and kitchen appliances could use an upgrade, but functional.

This is our second time renting Carrie's Cottage and we absolutely love it. Perfect location to visit all the cute towns in this part of Michigan, walking distance to a beautiful beach, and plenty of space for adults and young children. We hope to be back again!

Excellent stay, location is great, getting to the beach was tricky at first, and getting back up is difficult because of the dunes. Loved being off of the red arrow made it very easy to walk my dogs

The great room was perfect for hosting our large family gathering. The beach was close by and incredible. We appreciated having access to all the beach chairs and sand toys.

Lots of space, weird entrances, strange being next to old garage.Didnt like being literally on Red Arrow Highway. Lovely host

Really nice owners who were very attentive to our needs . Beach down the road and beautiful. Lawn chairs available . Individual room air conditioners which sometimes blasted the air continuously was the only negative. Thanks for a lovely stay

We enjoyed our stay ay Carrie's Cottage, there was plenty of room in the great room for everyone to gather. The fenced in backyard allowed for the kids to safely play outside. Spacious deck for family barbeque nights. Beautiful private beach access is available. Enjoy!

This was a 4 day getaway to relax. While there is no water view from the property, a short walk and some steps led us to the perfect semiprivate beach. There were umbrellas, chairs and 2 kayaks available to use. Despite it being mid September, the water was swimmable and the temps were high 80s. We brought our dogs with us and they loved swimming in the water. I can't speak to how busy it is during the peak summertime, but we had the entire stretch to ourselves. Loved that! We got to meet the property owner's dad who lives nearby. He was the greatest! He told us of a great pizza place (Villa Rosa), checked in to make sure we didn't need anything. He was available without being intrusive and we really appreciated how he looked out for us. We had not brought towels and he furnished them for us. The place was comfortable and had everything we needed to cook. The beds were comfortable. It could easily have held 7-11 people. We didn't stay in the studio part but it was adorable. My only complaint was with loud/older air conditioning units when trying to sleep, but they served their purpose. I used ear plugs without a problem, which I bring when I travel anyway. The host was communicative and helpful, and again, her dad made our stay even better with his kindness and how he looked out for us. We would stay there again for sure!

Perfect getaway house for three friends looking to relax. Would stay here again. All communication was prompt as needed and location to the beach was scenic and less than five minutes away!

The location was great, with several restaurants, walking trails, and the beach very close by. The lawn was a bit overgrown, and we had a little trouble with the locking mechanism, but overall we had a great time! The beach access was a quick walk with easy instructions, the chairs were a great touch, and the rooms were all comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

Great to accommodate a large group. Had a couple minor issues and the host was prompt on responses and trouble shooting.

We had a great time for our second year! Thank you so much for everything

Right on Red Arrow Highway with a short walk to the beach. TV didn’t work, but didn’t really need it. Plenty of space in the rental!! Loved the beach!!

This property is undergoing renovations. Needs a good weed wacking all around the perimeter of house. Inside was dirty with lots of dog hair on furniture. Kitchen equipped with very wornout teflon coated pots and pans. We dealt with ants in the kitchen (owners brought ant traps which helped) and MANY big flies in the suite. Nothing was done to help alleviate that problem. No hot water in the suite bathroom. We would not stay at this house again.

We had a small family reunion over the 4th of July - and this place ended up being a perfect arrangement! Great deck and fenced in backyard with large shade trees allowed us to spend every waking hour outside, comfortably, with pets. While located on Red Arrow Highway, noise was not a problem for us and this property has unique beach access privileges - which we very much leveraged. Owner was present and helpful / accomodating. We had a great stay!

The home was clean and roomy with everything we needed. I like the suite with the separate entrance for some peace and quiet from the younger part of the group! The beach was absolutely beautiful and just a short walk away, but prepare for a tough hike back, all uphill, when you’re done! Nearby New Buffalo was a gorgeous beach town with shops and restaurants aplenty! Its public beach was also lovely! We had a great trip, thank you!

Great beach front location. Relaxing and private. Hosts were nice and made sure all was well.
