Renovated cabin / beach access / 1+ acre of woods

Unwind at this fun family-friendly cabin in the Glenn Shores beach community. The house was lovingly renovated in 2021 including a brand new bathroom, kitchen, and outdoor shower. Located equidistant from downtown South Haven and Saugatuck, offering families a wealth of local attractions to explore. Nestled on over an acre of secluded property, this cabin is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy all that Southwest Michigan has to offer.

About the house:
The house has two main structures - the main house and then a bonus bunk house (bedroom #2 pictured) which is about 15 yards away from the main house. The bunk house is only available seasonally (May - Sept).

Bunk House (Bedroom #2 pictured):
The bunk house is a large space with a queen size bed, living area with a pull out couch (sheets and extra pillows available in the closet of the main house bedroom), large desk facing the woods, and its own deck. The bunk house is a perfect private space for a couple or for kids to stay and feel like they have their own space. The bunk house is only available seasonally (May - Sept) as it is not winterized.

Main House:
The main house has the primary bedroom with a queen sized bed, a full kitchen, a full bathroom, a living room, dining area, wood burning fireplace, screened in porch, and large deck off the back. Details about each space below.

Kitchen:
The kitchen is newly renovated and fully stocked with a retro refrigerator, full size electric range oven, farm house sink, and dish washer. All cooking utensils and spices you may need are provided as well as dish ware, pots and pans, microwave, and a Keurig coffee maker (Coffee and Tea K-cups provided).

Dining area:
The dining area is just off the kitchen and includes a large built in bench and table that can seat six. It is a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee.

Bathroom:
The bathroom is newly renovated with a large glass shower, new vanity, and washer dryer. It is fully stocked with hair dryer, towels, toilet paper, and dove soap. Guests will need to bring their own toiletries (shampoo/conditioner).

Wood burning fireplace:
The main house has a huge wood burning fireplace that is not functional at this time. We kindly ask that guests refrain from using it.

Screened in porch:
The main house has a front screened in porch that seasonally includes a small bistro table and a sitting area perfect for enjoying morning coffee or an evening meal.

Bar area:
The main house includes a small entryway/bar area which includes a cocktail shaker, wine opener, wine glasses, and copper mugs.

Outdoor shower:
There is an outdoor shower off the bathroom of the main house. This is a great spot for washing off after a trip to the beach.

The yard:
The houses sit on just over an acre of property which backs into what used to be an old golf course where there is a ton of wildlife (deer, turkey, an occasional fox) that can be seen trotting through. There are two decks on the property--one off the main house and one off the bunk house. The main house deck includes an outdoor seating area (available seasonally) and a gas grill. There is a fire pit and chairs in the back yard. Guests can help themselves to the firewood that is piled in the yard. A lighter can be found in the long drawer in the kitchen. There are a few yard games available for guests to use. These games can be found in the bin off the back deck.

Beach access: (seasonally)
The Glenn Shores community has a water lookout point that is about a 5-7 minute walk from the house. This is a great spot to go watch the sunsets. The stairs to the water have been removed due to high water levels. The beach is an additional 5 minute walk from the lookout point. A community map is available in the guestbook. To drive down to the beach (4 min drive) you'll need to bring the key to unlock the beach gate. In the summer months, the key can be found attached to a small shovel on top of the microwave. The beach has picnic tables and a sandy area. It is a smaller beach due to higher water levels but usually guests can find a spot. Note, there are no lifeguards on duty.

Water toys:
During the summer months, guests can access beach towels, floaties, life vests, and beach chairs. Beach towels can be found in the main house bathroom. All other items can be found in a large bin off the back deck.

Guest access
Parking:
The house has ample parking in front of the house (3+ cars). Guests can pull in next to the shed. Please do not pull in all the way to the house as the well is located there.

House access:
Both the main house and the bunk house have keypad entry. The codes to each house will be provided via text before your stay. These codes are updated after each stay.

Highly Recommend!
Beautiful experience from start to finish. It was truly magical and the wildlife around the cabin didn't feel real. Deers, Black Squirrels, Rabbits, Wild Turkeys, etc... They were everywhere you looked! We will be back..

Cozy cabin retreat
This place was a cozy little get away that was perfect for my family of 4. Property was beautiful, you felt like you were in the woods camping, equipped with a fire ring and then had the convenience of walking down to the beach to enjoy Lake Michigan and have a beach getaway. It was easy to get to and was very quiet and peaceful, yet close enough to South Haven to grab breakfast at a café or dinner in the evening and enjoy all the town has to offer.

Charming cottage
Philip and Krista's home is so cute and perfectly updated, while still keeping the character of a cottage. We stayed for a weekend in the fall so it was a bit chilly in the bathroom and bunk house, but the hosts left us everything we needed to stay warm and were easy to get a hold of for anything we needed. The location is gorgeous and the property is so charming!

Location and property great! Though as someone who likes to read before turning out the light for the night, a lamp in the bedroom would have been nice.

Perfect cute little cabin!
This little cabin was clean, cute and as described! We saw the beautiful sunset from the lookout point which is in walking distance. My teenagers/young adults loved the retro vibe and enjoyed playing records on the record player. Overall we enjoyed our stay. We would recommend.

Excellent cabin. Clean. Such a beautiful quiet area. If your looking for a cabin-glamping feel with the unsalted ocean vibe, this is it. Walking distance to a magnificent overlook of Lake Michigan. We watched the sunsets from there every night we stayed. 15-20 minute drive to Saugatuck or South Haven where there are shops, restaurants and beaches. Owner is very responsive, friendly and accommodating.

Cozy cabin
We didn’t check the weather before coming out to South Haven. While parking was difficult in the snow, it made the property all the more beautiful! The cabin was the perfect size for my partner and I plus our dog. Everything was spotless and the space heaters kept the cabin warm. I recommend bringing a snow shovel and food for cooking if staying during the winter since traveling was a bit rough on the roads. The owner Phillip was easy to get ahold of and even answered my call late at night when we were having trouble getting into the cabin (was totally my fault). Anyways this was a lovely romantic getaway and can’t wait to visit again!
