Private Vacation Home

Large home w/private Lake MI Beach access and convenient to local attractions

Mears, Michigan, United States

Just a minute's walk to Lake Michigan, the property offers private association access to a 750-foot shared beachfront. While the lake views are seasonal due to neighboring homes and trees, you can still enjoy the soothing sounds and refreshing breezes of the lake. You're not limited to our space - feel free to stroll for miles in either direction along the beach. The beach's beauty, the lake's majesty, and the stunning sunsets are simply legendary.brbrInside the home, there are four floors. The main floor features a large great room with 20-foot ceilings and large windows bringing in lots of light. There is a conversational seating area with a large coffee table for snacks and games, an island with seating for three, and a custom table with seating for six. Of course, there is also a picnic table on the deck which is easily accessed from the kitchen.brbrThe kitchen is fully stocked with all you’ll need – pots and pans, blender, drip coffee maker, hand mixer, slow cooker, flatware, glassware, and utensils.brbrFollow the hall from the great room, and you’ll find a full bath with a tub and shower combo along with two bedrooms, each with a queen bed. There’s also a door to the stairs that lead to the lower level. Follow these stairs down, and you’ll find the walk-out access to the front of the home. You’ll also discover a family area with a Roku TV for streaming, a sofa, and a love seat. There’s also another large coffee table for snacks and games, and a regular table with seating for six – another great place for playing games. The lower level also has a laundry/utility room, a full bath with a shower, and then two bedrooms – one with two twin beds, and one with two double beds.brbrOutside, there is a large wrap-around deck and a fire pit. We have several Adirondack and folding chairs, along with a picnic table.brbrUp the stairs from the great room, you’ll find the large primary bedroom with a window seat and king bed. There is also a full bath with a shower located off the landing at the top of the stairs, just outside the primary bedroom. From that landing, there is a circular staircase that leads to the Crow’s Nest, which is a great place to find solitude with a large, padded window seat, or to set up as a sleeping space (if you bring along an air mattress). Our kids have loved sleeping up there for the years we have stayed there!brbrThe property is located halfway between the lakeside communities of Pentwater and Mears (Silver Lake), Michigan. To the south is Silver Lake, complete with lots of activities for the kids, several souvenir shops, restaurants, boat rentals, and of course dune buggy rentals for exploring the world-famous Silver Lake Sand Dunes. With over 2,000 acres, the dunes are a hotbed of fun with something for everyone – boating, hiking, beaches, and of course “riding” the dunes.brbrWhen you can tear yourself away from the mesmerizing lake, a world of adventure and discovery awaits nearby:brbrSilver Lake Sand Dunes (10 minutes):brEnjoy the world-renown sand dunes with dune buggy rentals, four-wheelers, jet skis, and bike rentals. Remember to hit Mac Woods Dune Ride for an unforgettable experience!brbrPentwater (15 minutes)brIndulge in shopping, fine dining, and exciting fish charters. For a delightful treat, visit Cosmic Candy and Storybook Village, a charming interactive book store that's a hit with children and adults alike. Pentwater is known for its shops and parks, beaches, and events.brbrMichigan's Adventure (30 minutes)brEmbark on a day of fun at this amusement park and water park. Check out their website at www.miadventure.com for more details.brbrJJ Ranch & Resort (20 minutes away): Experience the ultimate getaway with snow tubing, golf, indoor and outdoor waterparks, horseback riding, and 18 miles of scenic trails.brbrLudington State Park (30 minutes away): Enjoy restuarants, shops and parks.brbrHart Montague Trail (15 minutes away): Ride the picturesque 22-mile trail! Stop at Country Dairy to refuel during your cycling adventure!brbrOne of the best and most-loved features of Ridge Road Cottage is its proximity to the beach. The bluff is relatively low, with 83 stairs and a couple of places to sit along the way should you need a breather. The beach itself is huge and beautiful, with trees lining the lake shore and views over the water as far as you can see. The beach is back and is huge as of spring 2024! Our association shares 750 feet of the beach, and there is more than enough room for everyone, as the beach is often on the quiet side throughout the summer. But you’re not limited to the association beach – you can literally walk for miles in either direction. And of course, in the evenings, you’ll find the sunsets that so many visitors to Michigan (and those that live here) can’t stop talking about.brbrRidge Road Cottage is an excellent home-base choice for families looking to spend time relaxing and ‘getting away from it all’ while having access to restaurants, shops, the beach, and plenty of fun things to do.

July 6-10 Open. Silver Lake, MI. Nice & Clean Cottage Home. Perfect Location.

Mears, Michigan, United States

Hi, my name is Mindy. I’m mom of one and “Nini” to two amazing grandson’s. I am retired and a year round resident of Silver Lake. I open my home up to guests for 6-8 weeks each summer. During this time, I stay with my daughter who also lives in Silver Lake. Renting my home out to guests for a limited amount of time each summer allows me to live here year round. My guests have been wonderful and some return year after year. It has been a very easy and pleasant experience.br Enjoy all the comforts of home, with nice furniture, comfy beds and living spaces. Located in the middle of it all and situated on 3 lots and Hunter Creek which feeds into beautiful Silver Lake. It is a very nice, clean and spacious 2,370 sq. ft., two story cottage home with an open floor plan. There are 4 bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths. 1 full bathroom with a shower is located on the first floor. A 1/2 bath is on the upper level, between two of the three upstairs bedrooms. br Bring your kayak and/or canoe and take off from the back yard and paddle your way right into Silver Lake. Hunter Creek has been shallow the past few years. So, for those of you who have a large boat, there is a public boat launch just at the end of W. Taylor and N. Shore Rd., you can drop it off and bring your trailer back to the house. If you don't have a kayak or boat, you can rent one from the Wave Club which is just down the street. At this time, there are no open boat slips available to dock your boat on Silver Lake. We are hoping this will change in the near future.br We are located right next to the Silver Village Assoc. path that leads to a pedestrian bridge that crosses Hunter Creek. Just a short walk across the bridge and up a dirt road leads you to the private Silver Village Assoc. pool and playground. Swim in the SVA private pool (scheduled days/times). Watch as people enjoy the zip line, drop tower and go carts at Craig's Cruisers. Walk across the street and eat lunch or dinner at The Chicken Shack, Smashed Burgers, MI Base Camp or Silver Scoops. Golden Bakery is where you can find yummy donuts, cinnamon rolls and breads. The Silver Lake State Parks, Silver Lake Sand Dunes and ORV access and parking are about a mile away. Don’t forget to ride on the dunes at Mack Woods Dune Rides! Our beautiful Little Sable Pointe Lighthouse and stunning Lake Michigan beach is less than 2 miles away. So many other places to enjoy are just a short drive, too!brbr~NO PETS ALLOWED.br~NO SMOKING inside the home. Outside, safely dispose of your butts.br~Garbage pick up is on Monday mornings by 6:00a.m. So, take the garbage out to the road @ end of driveway on SUNDAY EVENING! br~We keep the a/c set at a comfortable 72 temperature. Keeping it at this temp will keep the costs down for all of us. br-As a courtesy, we will start you off with 4 rolls of toilet tissue and 1 roll of paper towels. You will supply the rest.br-If you run out of propane for the bbq grill, take the empty tank to one of the gas stations and exchange for a full one. Leave the receipt on the kitchen counter and I will reimburse you through your VRBO booking.brbr*IMPORTANT! The housekeeping crew will be there at 11:00 sharp to clean the bathrooms, make the beds and do the laundry before the next guests arrive at 3:00. PLEASE! Pick up after yourselves and leave the home and property in the condition it was when you arrived. Thanks so much!brbr ~MORNING CHECK OUT is by 11 a.m.~brYou will find a vacuum and broom in the utility closet as well as in upstairs hallway. All of the cleaning supplies you will need is in the laundry area.brbr~PLEASE, strip ONLY the sheets/pillowcases from the beds and put downstairs in front of the washer/dryer area in the kitchen. br-Housekeeping will inventory quilts/comforters, switchover with replacements stored in sunroom area and take them off site to wash/dry. br~Place all wet/dirty towels in a laundry basket in front of the washer or inside the shower.br~Dust. Pick up. Vacuum and sweep the floors.br~Do NOT leave any dishes in the sink. Wash/dry and put away.br~Do NOT leave opened food in the refrigerator. Dispose of the food or take it with you. br-Any unopened food is okay to leave for the next family, if you wish to do so. br~CLEAN the yard/deck.br-CLEAN THE BBQ GRILL. Please, do NOT clean the grates in the kitchen sink or shower! There is a garden hose on the side of the house you can use to clean them. Don’t leave it dirty for the next guests!brbr NOTE: If you decide to return to Silver Lake and rent my home again, I only rent it out for 6-8 weeks each summer and block the rest of calendar. Therefore, to ensure you get your desired dates, booking your vacation AT LEAST 6 months in advance is highly recommended.
