Amazing sunsets overlooking Lake Michigan!

Welcome to the Dune Cottage with incredible views of Lake Michigan and the Beaver Island archipelago. Facing west into every sunset, this fully renovated 3-story cottage was built into the dunes at a time that current regulations prevent. All you see from the large deck is a 230-degree panoramic view of Lake Michigan. We have a private beach, and a 100-yard walk away gives access to 3 miles of unspoiled, remote, protected, undeveloped land!

The cottage (renovated in 2018) includes a new kitchen, appliances, three new bathrooms, lighting, furniture, flooring, and decor. Four bedrooms are spacious enough to host up to 10 guests comfortably. Nestled inside Fisherman's Island State Park, it allows access to 2800 acres of protected land for hiking and hunting in season.

The Dune Cottage is conveniently located just 12 minutes from downtown Charlevoix. Charlevoix boasts a vibrant marina and East Park, unique restaurants, shopping, and a farmers market. There is no better location in Charlevoix. There are many golf course options within a short distance from the cottage. Snow skiing in the winter months is easily accessible as well.

We have been in the weekly rental business for 2 decades and always enjoy sharing our lovely properties with our guests.
