The cottage was really cute and clean. Short drive to a beautiful beach. The location was perfect for exploring St. Joseph and South Haven. The owner was very quick to answer questions and very friendly. Some of the reviews mentioned the shower being small but to me it was a cottage shower that served it's purpose I have no complaints. I would definitely stay here again.
I booked this cottage and then there was a problem w/ the well so John upgraded me to Livingston's Fabulous Beach House--a 3-bedroom house nearby. This review reflects my stay at the Beach House, which was a peaceful, airy, welcome retreat. John was most gracious in making this upgrade change and I had a fabulous few days to myself......95 steps down to beautiful beaches where I could walk for miles. I highly recommend Livingston's Fabulous Beach House, or connecting with John to stay at any of his properties. My sincere thanks, John!
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary. The country setting was enjoyable and for us was much better than staying in a motel. The price was very reasonable and it was close to shopping and restaurarants. Very nice.
The stay was great. About a 10 minute walk to the beach. Pull out bed was very uncomfortable and shower was not the best but outside of that the stay was lovely! I would just suggest bringing an air mattress.
Thought it was nice just got sick so had to leave early. Wish they would show more of where itâs at in listing. But the backyard is cozy and so is the house. Everything was clean. John was a nice host
This was a such a relaxing and picturesque location. It was close to the lake and easy to find. I would definitely recommend this location for a quiet weekend.
Great little secluded property just a short 3 minute drive to a secluded beach that is way less crowded than the touristy beaches in South Haven. Grilled and ate outdoor every night!
Nice little property. John was easy to work with. Felt fairly secluded where we were (which was exactly what we wanted). Yes, it is small, but we survived with a toddler there with us and everything worked out great.
We very much enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage in the woods near Lake Michigan! We could walk to the beach (or drive) for a quiet enjoyment at Hagar Park. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed including a giant bowl of candy waiting for us when we arrived! We will definitely be back next fall.
We enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cottage and would stay again. It was a little tight for three adults plus one 17 yo (girls trip). We ended up getting an air mattress and sleeping on that plus the couch (not folded out) because the mattress on the hide-a-bed didnât seem like it would be comfortable to sleep on. The bed in the bedroom was comfortable. The property was quiet and overall we enjoyed our stay!
Nicely renovated kitchen and bathroom.
Everything was there, more kitchen equipment than I have at home. However, the bedroom was not designed for a queen size bed (very comfortable.
We were slim enough to make do.
The area is so nice. We went to South Haven and Benton Harbor. The cozy cottage was in a nice quiet area where we could get to all the favorite areas! The cozy cottage was nice and clean. I was disappointed with the weather one day because with the rain and power outage there wasn't much we could do at the cottage but that wasn't our host's fault. If you are traveling and want to stay in, this may not be the place for you. It has a small TV and the lighting wasnt the best for reading but that may just be my "old" eyes. If you are wanting a place to stay while you explore the area it is a fantastic cozy cottage. Thanks for a great stay!
Cozy cabin, summarize it. Clean kitchen and living area. Small shower, bedroom and pull out is typical, horrible to sleep on. Best to bring air mattress to put on top.
Small window ac unit in main living area only. That was fine for us since weather was decent but any warmer temps wouldâve been an issue.
Had coffee maker, tiny microwave and tvs are tiny as well.

Clean beach house
House was very clean. Factory next door was loud as well as highway behind house. House was not located on Lake MichiganâŠhad a long walk down unstable stairs (with no railing) to get to beachâŠnot suitable for handicap individuals. Traffic was loud and factory had fumes and noisy during the day. No cards or games of any sort.
Living room with kitchenette (coffee, sink, microwave, fridge, mini dishwasher, stovetop with no stove). The living room has a pullout couch. The bathroom has a small walk-in shower. The bedroom (which you access via bathroom) has a full or queen size bed. There is a closet with shelves. Also in the closet theres a washer, dryer, and iron with board. The lawn is quite large with a deck and table. There is construction by an edge of the lawn. The place was very clean and quiet while we were there. The walk to the public beach was approx 20 minutes each way.
This property is new and fresh. It was renovated in 2011 and has a modern kitchen and bath, quality wood floors, and nice furnishings. It sits among tall trees and other cottages in a quaint area that you will want to call home. A fabulous community beach is the equivalent of about four blocks away.
