About this property

NEW & IMPROVED Spectacular beach front home on Lake Michigan

  • This home has been remodeled in 2020 and 2024! OWNERS PURCHASED HOME & are Parade of Home Builders. Roosevelt Cottage has new cabinets, new bathrooms, new stainless steel appliances, & LVP flooring throughout!! Home is furnished beautifully, including custom built pieces.
    Relax and unwind at this quiet lakefront property between Montague and Stony Lake. Soak in the sunset from the hot tub overlooking majestic Lake Michigan, recline with morning coffee on the large deck, & enjoy the crisp summer night by the fire pit outside. This home is a great get away for families and friends! The newly landscaped back yard will give you the perfect spot to sit and enjoy the views.

    This beach house is located directly ON Lake Michigan with its own 125' of private beach front. This lovely beach house house rests atop a small bluff overlooking majestic Lake Michigan on a quiet, residential road. There is even a working organic farm across the street. If you are fortunate enough you might be able to walk to the farm stand and grab fresh farm eggs or organic vegetables.

    There is 700 sq. ft. of TREX decking overlooking Lake Michigan with lounge chairs to lay out, an under deck with new sitting areas to enjoy the views in the shade watch the gorgeous sunsets. Lake Michigan sunsets are a work of art that you don't want to miss. There are stairs to the beach and a large beach to thoroughly enjoy the lake!! There are 2 kayaks to use along with two paddle boards. Just bring your own life jackets and you are ready to coast the shoreline. The private beach is around 125 feet with Adirondack chairs and beach towels to enjoy the sunshine. We also have an outdoor shower with hot and cold water to rinse off after the beach.

    Roosevelt Cottage has 5 large bedrooms (Sleeps 12), with direct views of the lake. The Main floor King bedroom with windows looking out to Lake Michigan and a patio door. Its a great spot to venture onto the deck and enjoy your beverage of choice. You might even spot a bald eagle flying by.

    The cottage has 4 full bathrooms 2 on the main floor, 1 upstairs, and 1 downstairs. Other features include a spacious kitchen (all new including appliances) and dining area, living area with large picture windows with a lake view. Bring groceries to prepare in our fully stocked kitchen or venture out to eat at one of the many restaurants and open-air bars in Montague, Whitehall, Mears, Silver Lake, Hart, Pentwater, or Ludington. The Dining area accommodates 8 people at the table and 2-4 at the kitchen counter. A perfect spot to spend time with loved ones, spend a honeymoon, or just rest and recharge.

    Each bedroom has their own Smart TV. We have large Smart TV's in the living areas for the rainy day movies. There are lots of games and books to keep you busy on the cloudy days.

Amazing home with unbeatable views!

My family had a wonderful stay at this property. The hosts were quick to communicate and answer any questions we had. The home has been recently updated and was exceptionally clean. Plenty of room for kids and adults alike. Anything we needed was provided from beach towels to paddle boards to ample seating inside and out the home. Highly recommend and will likely be back sooner than later!

We love this house! This is the cleanest rental home we have ever stayed in. The decor is light and tranquil. The windows bring in so much great sunlight and stunning lake views. The house has had a lot of changes and upgrades from our original stay in 2021 and they did a phenomenal job! Beach (sturdy staircase, paddleboards and kayaks), fire pit, hot tub, amazing views from the deck, and a blackstone..it was perfect, We couldn't ask for anything else! The owner is kind and easy to communicate with. We will stay here again and again.

Nana's Lake Michigan Family Vacation

This is a beautiful home on Lake Michigan, bright, clean and plenty of room with wonderful lake views from every window. The beach is spectacular and was enjoyed by everyone. Nana watched most of the activity from the deck and could tell everyone was enjoying themselves. We were blessed with great weather. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Superb!

My family and I have stayed at many VRBO vacation homes and have enjoyed most (one exception). Our 2023 stay was by far one that checked all the boxes. It was CLEAN, roomy, beautifully decorated, and accessible for all 9 of us. The beach and the Blackstone really put this vacation over the top (plus the weather was perfect).

Perfect getaway for our group to relax and take in the beautiful Lake Michigan scenery. The wraparound deck was stellar for visiting and staring at the coastline. Plenty of room for everyone and super easy to book/check in. Definitely plan to stay again in the future! Thanks!

This home is absolutely beautiful, and the view is stunning. We loved being able to see the lake from so many of the windows. Looking at Lake Michigan is never looking at the same lake twice. It was amazing having a private beach! The house was immaculately clean and we had no issues at all. We also really appreciated the layout of the house. Having three floors with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms and two separate living areas gave our family the space we needed to enjoy each other’s company but also have some separate spaces.The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few family meals. It was well stocked and had really nice appliances. Montague was a cute town to wander through, we really enjoyed the bookstore and some of the little shops. This is also home to Michigan’s last remaining Dog n Suds. Unlike a lot of Michigan vacation towns Montague didn’t feel crowded at all.The hosts were easy to communicate with, very responsive and checking in and out was easy.This was definitely a five out of five star experience. Maybe even six out of five stars. our family thanks you for sharing this beautiful home.

Beautiful, Quaint Location

We spent a week here with my in-laws (9 people total). The house was big enough for all of us and met all of our needs. The kitchen and living room area are big and spacious with a beautiful view of the lake. The bedrooms are all quite large and the beds were comfortable. The cottage is located about 5 miles outside of Montague in a quiet, peaceful area. It was a great area for running and riding bikes. I would definitely recommend this cottage and we hope to return again next year.

Picture-perfect cottage on the lake with every amenity

Had a fabulous weekend here celebrating my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. The view of Lake Michigan was breathtaking with an unforgettable sunset each night. Inside, the home was beautifully furnished with a sophisticated, thoughtfully curated interior that felt modern and elegant. As someone who loves to cook, I was elated to find a well-stocked kitchen with sharp knives (a rare and welcome surprise in a rental), plus both a Blackstone and propane grill. The space was generous and comfortable, with room to spread out and relax. The host was kind, responsive, and made everything easy from start to finish. We can't wait to come back.

My family, ranging in age from 13 to 99, had a fabulous stay at Roosevelt Cottage. I was extremely impressed with the well-stocked kitchen; much better than anything I have seen at other properties. A perfect get away for relaxing, enjoying the lake views, and walking on the beach.
