Enjoy a getaway steps from Lake Michigan's Sheridan Beach in this cozy cottage that is great for quiet comfort, family fun, a romantic getaway, or a weekend with close friends. There are many activities nearby including Washington Park Marina/Park/Zoo, Sheridan Beach, Blue Chip Casino, Lighthouse Premium Place Outlets, and downtown Michigan City restaurants, all a short walk or bike ride away. The area also has several wineries and breweries. Additionally, for those wanting to enjoy concerts, sporting events or a day trip exploring Chicago, the South Shore Line now offers a 67-minute train to Chicago from 11th Street in Michigan City, which is approximately two miles from the cottage.

The beach is just a five minute walk from the front door. We provide a beach wagon, two beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels, a cooler, a few ice packs, and some sand toys for your enjoyment.

The serene back patio is surrounded by trees and is great for relaxing in the evenings. A grill is provided but please clean this after use.

The charming house features 1 queen bed in the primary on the main floor and two double beds in the upstairs loft. There is one full bathroom with a shower. A hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner and lotion are provided for your convenience. The home has a television with a Roku for you to log in to watch your streaming services. We also have WiFi and a small selection of books to borrow for your next good read.

Fall in love with Michigan City and enjoy the magic this peaceful cottage has to offer.

    The cottage was clean, comfortable, and close to the beach. Everything we needed was provided: from kitchen and cooking supplies to beach chairs and coolers. We enjoyed our stay greatly.

    This beach house was a perfect fit for me, my 3 teen/adult children, and my dog. Check-in was as simple as making a phone call to the owner to let her know we had arrived a bit early, but she was very accommodating. We loved that the beach and zoo were all within walking distance from the house, and we even ventured further and walked to the lighthouse museum. Kitchen had plenty of coffee so I could spend my mornings relaxing in this comfy cottage. It was a very hot weekend, but air conditioning worked great! It was a wonderful weekend!

My kids absolutely lovrd it also! Theres a nice back patio, we had a BBQ and enjoyed the table firepit. This will definitely be our beach stay away from home from now on!! Easy walk to the beach was my favorite! Thank you so much!!!

    The cottage is adorable. It offers all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Jamie is very responsive to questions and even had a broom & dust pan delivered to the door when I asked about having something to sweep up sand.It is a short walk to the beach and a short drive for eating & shopping. My daughter and I enjoyed our stay and would return again. My 1 suggestion is to add a ceiling fan to the bedroom ceiling. Menopausal women like myself would appreciate the extra air circulation while trying to sleep. LOL

    We really enjoyed the cottage. The location is perfect for beach, restaurants and activities. It is clean and well stocked with everything you need for a beach day. The bathroom was updated with very nice fixtures. It is located in the main floor bedroom. The patio is large and has a table for 6 with additional chairs. The A/C was very comfortable and worked great.

    This is our third summer staying at this cottage and it is always clean and well maintained. The location is great being just a few blocks from the lake, close to the zoo and close to restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and very family friendly. This is a great spot for a family.
