Lake Michigan House with private beach access -- Oberon Cottage

Welcome to your summer vacation destination, where you will feel the breezes and the sounds of beautiful Lake Michigan from your back deck and bedrooms! A quick 2 minute walk will take you to the association's 80 steps down to 700 feet of shared private beach space. There you will find the most serene beach (salt free!) for reading a book, building sand castles, and catching breathtaking sunsets. While the big lake is an ever changing force from season to season, our beach is private, freeof rocks and shells, with plenty of sand and crystal clear water. You can walk for four miles along the beach all the way to Pentwater!

Our house is thoughtfully designed to take care of all your needs. Two outdoor decks (each seating up to 6) provide areas for lounging and dining, with a firepit for roasting s'mores at the end of the day. Inside you will find a large living space with connected dining and kitchen areas. A large custom dining table seats 10. Three bedrooms and an additional full bed in the loft allow everyone a space to recover from days exploring West Michigan. We have beach chairs and two kayaks for your use, and we have the house stocked with toys, puzzles, games, TV, WiFi, DVD's -- all you need to do is get here! This is our family cottage, so go right ahead and use the extra ketchup or bottle of ranch in the fridge.

This area is packed with fun activities throughout your day. To the south is Silver Lake, a toy lover's paradise. Dune buggies, wave runners, and go-carts abound, whether you bring your own or rent for a day. Take a dune ride with Mac Woods and make sure you get Whippy Dip ice cream afterwards! To the north lies Pentwater, a quiet town with art galleries, fine dining, and quaint shops. Travel inland to find fun experiences at Lewis Adventure Farm & Zoo, Country Dairy, or keep going south for rollercoasters at Michigan's Adventure! If you're the kind who likes to sprinkle in some workouts on your vacation, check out the Hart-Montague bike trail which provides 25 miles of paved trails or the Pentwater Pathways trail for running, biking or cross country skiing. Michigan offers incredible seasons -- don't miss a chance to take in the fall colors or enjoy a quiet winter weekend snuggled up with a book and a blanket. Did we mention the beach No sharp rocks, gross seaweed, and sooooo private!
