Mears, Michigan
This is indeed a special place! The paved driveway leads you to spacious parking for 4 (or more) cars. A few steps away is our beautiful 3 bedroom home with 2600 square feet of living space.
The main level and the lower level each have a spacious deck for you to entertain and enjoy the amazing views of Lake Michigan.
Then 60 steps down later (from the lower deck) there is another deck that overlooks your own 90' of private beach!
*Summer of 2020 update: Because of the record high waters, our beach area has been changing week to week. Currently we have very little beach area, but the lower deck provides an area to enjoy the lake.

Our stay at Dan and Jan's beach house was wonderful! The house was extremely neat and clean upon arrival. So many small touches to make our stay comfortable. Loved the puzzles and chess/checkers set. Drawer of kids dishes, cups and utensils were very helpful. The kids basically lived in the waves all week, amazing to have a private beach. Great views of the lake and sunsets from the large porch. A great location near Hart, Mears, Silver Lake and Pentwater. Thanks for a great week!
This was absolutely perfect! A beautiful property! Amazing lake views and access. The hosts are great to work with. Easy access to activities, groceries, etc. The home is spacious and well- equipped. The deck is outstanding. We had such a great time!
This is our fourth year at the lake house. We are just home a week and missing it already. What makes it so wonderful? The cottage is situated with a full view of Lake Michigan from the kitchen, dining room, and living room. The deck brings you even closer to beautiful sunsets. I do not know how the owners manage to keep it consistently kept up and clean each year. The cottage comes with everything you might need, including a coffee grinder! Pots, pans, knives, coffee maker, dishwasher and kitchen ware are all in excellent shape and condition. You can’t get much closer to Lake Michigan then this beautiful place. This year and last were the added attractions of a shipwreck from the 1800s right near the beach. Our grandchildren were fascinated, as were we. The front lawn is great for young kids to run off whatever excess energy they have at the end of the day. There is a fire pit near the front lawn as well as one down by the beach. The beds are all very comfortable and we love hearing the surf in the evening. This cottage is updated with new improvements yearly. It would be hard to find a better place on Lake Michigan!
My family of four (and Grandma for a few days) loved every minute of our stay in Mears MI. What a perfect location at the beach, and very well maintained. Easy to feel hidden away with a private chunk of beach, but not far from attractions (hello Silver Scoops...). We appreciated the little details like the hose at the bottom of the steps, and having all the creature comforts of home while away at the lake. We booked our next stay here only a few days into the week, that's how sure we were of our enjoyment. 100% Recommend!
We had a wonderful week! The house was very clean and we appreciated the good communication with the owner. The upper level had an nice open concept with kitchen, large table for meals and couches with tv. The large sliding doors along the entire back were great for experiencing Michigan's lovely summer weather and seeing the lake since they also had screen doors. The master bedroom had the same beautiful view and a nice skylight in the bathroom. The lower level had a good hang out space for kids with another table and chairs and tv along with extra bedrooms, laundry area, an extra fridge and a bathroom. My husband loved the Weber grill and having a picnic table on the back deck. The neighbors on one side are very close but there is a privacy fence. Our favorite place was the fire ring on the beautiful beach at the bottom of the stairs. There were also chairs down there. The stairs are steep but there are places to stop and sit if your knees or lungs can't handle the climb back up without breaks. The lights on the stairs were nice to have at night. There is a fire ring in the front yard also if you don't want to go down the stairs to the beach. We also appreciated having things such as hand soap, a roll of paper towels, a box of Kleenex and toilet paper upon arrival! Some of the places we have stayed in the past didn't have these and it was a hassle on day 1 if you hadn't gone to a store yet. We don't have any complaints!
The kids had so much fun at Dan's lake house last year that they demanded a return trip. It was just as pretty as we remembered -- the property was in great shape and the host couldn't have been more accommodating. We may well be back again next year if Dan will have us!
Comfortable space, and beautiful walks on the beach!
We love Dan and Jan’s property! This is our 5th year staying here and we’ve never been let down. Lots of beach to enjoy down by the lake. My mom and I love going for long walks and our kids enjoy splashing in the lake and playing with the sand. This property is close to Pentwater, Ludington, and Silverlake. We love visiting Pentwater and shopping/getting coffee in the morning/ice cream at night. We brought our own personal boat this year and boated Silverlake - that was super fun. We stopped by Mac Woods Dune Rides and our kids loved that. Lewis Farms is another great spot to visit for the whole family. We can’t wait to return next year. Thanks, Dan and Jan!
Great house with a large deck for beautiful views of Lake Michigan. We had a great week and plan on coming here again!
The description of the property and amenities were spot on. Any questions we had the owner responded right away. The view of the lake at sunset was spectacular. Water was crystal clear. You could see the bottom 20’ out. Wonderful swimming, great beach.
Amazing property and a great host. Very clean!
Beautiful home with a fabulous view of the lake. Had an incredible week.
We had a great week at the Lake. The property looks just how it does in the pictures -- our kids had a lot of fun playing at the beach. They also really enjoyed a day at Michigan's Adventure, which is about a 30-minute drive from the house. A storm knocked out the internet during our stay and Dan drove out that night to replace the modem and router for us, which was extremely kind of him and well above and beyond what we might have expected. Dan is a very thoughtful host / property manager -- we'd highly recommend this property to others.
