Fun for the whole family, a romantic get-a-way or girls weekend. We have it all
PICK ME! PICK ME! Chip Loves company. This cute little cottage is nestled in between St. Joseph (9 miles south) and South Haven(12 miles north) along the Lake Michigan shoreline. It is one mile south of Roadside park and one mile north of Hagar Park. These public beaches are surprisingly secluded and wooded in what guests have described as a diamond in the rough. There is plenty to do in both directions. Chip's Place is a cozy Family friendly cottage. We are NOT large enough for parties inside or outside. We have taken great pride and care to create an experience for our guests that will create happy memories of the cottage by the big Lake. Chip's has one central air conditioner in the main room that keeps the entire cottage cool and both bedrooms have ceiling fans. Guests' enjoy activities in the surrounding communities for year long adventures. We have received high marks for decor, activities, amenities and cleanliness! There is one camera in front as added security for the parking area.
We had a wonderful stay at Dawnâs cottage! Everything was clean and it was perfect location between St. Joe and South Haven. Would definitely stay again!
My sister and I stayed here for a relaxing weekend. The house was perfect and had literally everything we needed. The location was great as well. The smores were the perfect touch to end our evenings by the fire.
Small little cottage was perfect for our family of 4 (two kids under 10). Dawn was an excellent host with a few surprises that my kids thoroughly enjoyed. Thank your for the smore's and breakfast treats! She was very quick with communication when we had questions and the check-in and check-out process was a breeze. The cottage is in a small, quiet community that is not far from a quiet roadside beach park and a 15 minute drive from St. Joseph or South Haven beaches. Perfect place to stay at if you are wanting to explore the area and beaches.
Chipâs place was very clean, comfortable and welcoming. It is appointed simply yet had everything we needed. The coffee pods were great and we left the sâmores supplies for the next young guests. It is close enough to St. Joeâs for us to attend our events there, but off the beaten path with many hidden gems nearby. Quiet neighborhood with lush vegetation. Very relaxing. I hope to return.
Nice clean little property just down the road from Hagar park beach. Dawn was responsive and had the house stocked with all the necessities. Overall, 9/10. Only downside was the attached neighbors shooting fireworks at the house.
Chipâs Place was immaculate and had so many thoughtful touches from snacks and toiletries to books and games. The nearby pizza place is yummy, but otherwise it was a bit of a drive to other activities. Everything was an easy drive, though. We didnât try to walk to Hagar Beach as it would entail crossing and walking along the highway.
Dawn's property was just right for our family of three, perfectly sized, thoughtful details, and a well stocked kitchen and laundry area. Dawn was very responsive to every message I sent. Coloma is an adorable area, off the beaten path of St Joe and Benton Harbor - we enjoyed every meal we had at various restaurants and Hagar Beach was perfectly sized for us. Thank you, Dawn!
Dawns cottage was perfect for my familyâs Lake Michigan trip. It is centrally located near all the cute towns to visit and quick drives to all the beach accesses. It was super well stocked which was very nice of Dawn. Beds were super comfy too!
Dawn was a great host, so many thoughtful little touches, her cottage is immaculate and very comfortable. Location was great! Excited to stay there again.
This is an awesome place to stay if you are going to South Haven and St.Joe/Silver Beach. Kitchen had everything together on one shelf to make my coffee cake and all the dinnerware needed to serve it along with a nice size dining room table. Stocked with coffee and creamer for every morning which was amazing!! Dishwasher with soap provided. Also has a washer and dryer with detergent. The first thing my teens did though upon entering was to find the games and set up twister! Our highlight though was the sâmores in the backyard with everything provided. Dawn was very quick to get back to me when I asked questions and was ok with one of my sonâs who was passing through the area to spend one of the nights with us. The window a/c in the living room really does keep the whole place cool at night, and we even had our door shut with the overhead fan on. Would go back in a heartbeat!
Dawnâs place is amazing! It was very well stocked and clean. It was right in between St. Joseph and South Haven, each about a 15 minute drive. We visited the nearby beaches (about 3 min drive) and they were nice and not busy. Would definitely recommend!
This cabin was clean (except for cobwebs in corners) and inviting. It was easy to find but a good drive to downtown for dinner or shopping. The nearby beach was down a tall stairway - Not easy for a family carrying more than chairs, bags & small cooler. Chip's place was a great value.
Very quaint cottage. Quiet, very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable . At first look you might think it is small , but there were 4 adults and we had plenty of room. The price was very affordable as well
