Guest Reviews
“Love staying here! Right on the channel and a short walk to the beach or into town for food, drinks, coffee and shopping!! Very clean. Stocked kitchenette for light cooking in the room. Huge closet for your belongings!”
“Being right near the channel and, therefore, being right between Pentwater Lake and Lake Michigan, make this an ideal location for a nice getaway. Whether walking to the beach or to town, you don’t have to go far. The kitchenette rooms have what we need. The beds are very comfortable and being able to sit outside is very nice.”
“The location is fantastic. The beach and town within easy walking distance. The cottage was clean. Added bonus was the covered area in front of the cottage with a picnic table under it, made for shade always available.”

“We have enjoyed our stay here. Our room is very clean and comfortable. It is off of the main streets so it is quiet, but close to everything. It is just a short walk to downtown. The channel is across the street and we were able to walk along the channel to the light house and to the state park and along the shoreline.”
“Fabulous, wonderful and our yearly destination!! Lisa and Shane are wonderful innkeepers! Look here first. Clean, perfect location and truly a vacation delight. We will be returning every year, forever!!”
