A PERFECT place for a ROMANTIC escape in the heart of southwest Michigan. A modern cottage in a country setting. The bird feeder is kept full, the deer roam free, the creek runs year round, and the stars shine bright. Hygge atmosphere, like Winnie the Pooh says, “You don’t say it, you feel it.” You may even hear the coyotes howl.
Private but safe for the solo traveler as hosts are close.

Her wooded canopy will provide wildlife up close. The field across from the cottage may grace you with a new baby calf or you may see the Blue Heron walking down the creek. The sweep of deck or gazebo will allow for hours of outside lounging, games, and grilling.

Stop by our family owned store in 3-Rivers, and grab all you need to fix yourself a gourmet meal in our fully equipped kitchen. From steaks, to fresh brats, to smoked meat you should be able to find a favorite. Use the gas grill or for the true campers enjoy the camp fire.
