The cottage is located approximately 30 minutes north of Milwaukee and ,10 minutes south of historic Sheboygan/Kohler golf courses. Also 20 to 30 minutes from Elkhart Lake/Road America.

The cottage has been in our family for decades and we still love going there.

There is plenty to do for those looking to stay busy. However, if you are looking for a private and relaxing getaway, this is where you want to to be.
Clara’s cottage is situated on a private double lot just yards from the beach and the
ever-changing colors of Lake Michigan.

Throughout the living area, there are stunning lake views out each window. There are 2 bedrooms downstairs with comfortable queen-size beds. The upstairs dormer provides a nice lounge area with TV and views of the lake.

    We really enjoyed our stay here. The lake was warm enough (for us) to swim in, and it was just wonderful and relaxing to bounce in the waves! Afterwards, we'd sit in the Adirondack chairs and enjoy the sun and dry off. The cottage was clean, warm, and homey. We tried to use the grill, but I think it was simply too windy. No worries, we cooked inside. If you want to enjoy the relaxing on the beach and in the water, this is the place for you.

    My family and I had such a fun time at Clara's Cottage! We were very fortunate to have great weather in mid-July, so we spent lots of time at the beach. As advertised in the listing, the semi-private beach has direct access from the backyard - huge plus! If you're looking for a lazy summer vacation at the beach, but want to avoid the heat of Florida or the Gulf Coast, the cottage is a great choice. The cottage had all necessities expected/needed for a 6-night stay, and Rick was a responsive host through messages before and during our stay. The external temperatures were a little warm during the afternoons, but the window fans located on both levels kept the cottage cool and comfortable. The attic (while a bit musty smelling) was a big hit with my young kids. It wasn't emphasized as part of the listing, but should have been since they thought it was the coolest part of the home. There are 4 beds located upstairs (in addition to the 2 queens on the main floor), so plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The basement (also musty) had a half-bath and the washer/dryer.The local area, from Sheboygan to Port Washington, had lots of fun things for my family to do. I look forward to returning to the area and would stay at Clara's Cottage again!

    Right on the lake with a gentle few steps down to the large beach. The house has been updated but has kept some of the old cottage feel. Thank goodness for the air conditioner-it was a very hot week. Owner was easy to reach. It was just two of us, but it would be a great place to bring a bunch of kids, also.

    The location of the house couldn't have been better. Loved that we could step out the back door and walk along a quiet sandy beach for miles in each direction or sit under the umbrella and read. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with a variety of pots, pans and dishes, making cooking meals easy. We didn't have beach towels, a hairdryer or laundry soap as we were visiting from Oregon, but we managed. We would definitely come back.

    This rustic cottage had everything we were looking for. It was steps from the lake, and the beach was great for walking, watching the sunrise and we hardly saw any people.The location was perfect. The cottage was in a near private location but there was tons to do a short drive north or south.It was clean and there was nothing we needed that we didn't have.The check-in/check-out process was one of the easiest I have had so far on VRBO.Overall I highly recommend.

    Enjoyed the beach and quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Clean house perfect for our small family. Access to Sheboygan during a rainy day also a plus. Owner was very responsive and left detailed instructions for checkin and checkout.
