Douglas Beach Cottage

Experience the perfect Lake Michigan getaway at Douglas Beach Cottage, a classic lakeshore retreat with private beach access. Located on the highly desirable Lakeshore Drive, this charming cottage combines timeless character with unbeatable access to the sand and shore.

This historic cottage, in the same family since 1955, offers sleeping for 10 across 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Cathedral ceilings soar over the open living room, filling the space with light and creating a welcoming area to gather. While the home has gone through many changes over the years, it is easy to imagine the memories that have been created along the way. The furnishings are older, but that won't matter as the focus is on the stunning outdoors, where the lake takes center stage.

Step out onto the covered back porch to enjoy panoramic views of Lake Michigan, or take your private stairs down to the water's edge for a swim. The gentle lake breeze, the sound of waves, and the miles of shoreline provide an unmatched setting for relaxation and recreation.

Douglas Beach Cottage places the best of Douglas and Saugatuck within easy reach. Explore charming downtown streets, local shops, and restaurants just minutes away, then return to your private lakeside retreat to watch the sunset over the water.

Whether for a family vacation or a weekend escape, this Lake Michigan cottage offers a rare combination of classic charm, direct beach access, and unforgettable views.

Please Note:
- A flight of 42 stairs is required to reach this home from the road. This home is not suitable for those who struggle with stairs.
- This is a classic Lake Michigan cottage with original wood floors, walls, and ceilings. It smells and feels like a true cottage. If you are looking for new, this is not for you. If you are looking for a steady classic, this is it.
- This property is perched on the bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. The breeze off the lake brings with it remnants of lake water and sugar sand beach. Even after being freshly swept, vacuumed, and mopped, you may still find some sand underfoot.
- Cell phone reception can be spotty along the lakeshore. Your phone may switch between Eastern Standard Time (Michigan) and Central Standard Time (Illinois and Wisconsin). The internet is provided by Frontier, as high-speed cable internet is not available here.
- There are no laundry services available at the cottage. There is a laundromat just a mile up the road in Douglas.
