Scenic Waterfront Lake Michigan Escape

This stylish 1913 craftsman is perfect for family vacations, group trips or a couple's escape. Situated directly on Lake Michigan you can enjoy breathtaking views from the home and recently constructed deck. The primary bedroom features a new bathroom and magnificent views of the lake.

There are three workspaces perfect for "work from home". Finish your day by relaxing in the hot tub, hammock or by the fire. The home is located in a historic neighborhood just 1 hour and 20 minutes from Chicago and 45 minutes from Milwaukee. Enjoy a walk down nearby College Ave and enjoy the remarkable architecture.

Please Note: The home is lakefront however the staircase that provides direct access to the water is currently waiting for final city approval. It's expected to be completed in 2025. There are two lakefront parks within walking distance to the house, one with a small beach.

This house was built in 1913, was significantly remodeled in 1963, and then again recently. Look closely for some original features including servant bells and the dumbwaiter (now a laundry chute).

There is not central air conditioning, however all of the windows open and the lake breezes keep it much cooler than even one block west. There are window AC units or wall units in every bedroom and the living room.

Outdoor amenities include grill, hammock, hot tub, fire table and solo stove.

The perfect cozy winter stay!
Our group of friends had the best time at this cozy, character-filled home. A well-appointed kitchen and large dining table made for great meals, and the living room had lots of comfortable seating, perfect for curling up with a book with the a beautiful view of Lake Michigan. The home is located in a neighborhood with lots of cool historic homes - we enjoyed walking the area. The cherry on top of our stay was the hot tub. Perfect for this chilly weather! Finally, we really appreciated that our host was highly communicative, ensuring we had a great stay. Would recommend!

The house is a dream! Very cozy yet spacious, with so much warmth & character. Beautiful back yard and porch with breathtaking views of Lake Michigan. Inside was perfect for our group of five adults with plenty of sleeping options and super comfy beds! The kitchen is perfectly stocked with all you could need for cooking! Loved the way this place is decorated - the hosts have created such an inviting space and are super responsive! This place will be a 12/10 once the stairs are built that will give direct access to the lake. Great places to walk to tho!

Family get together
My family came together here from 3 different states. It was the perfect location. Chose here for the lakefront. View was beautiful. Was in hopes the steps from the bluff would have been completed but had not even been started. Plenty of room for our group of 7 for sleeping, cooking and dining…inside and out, and ample comfy sitting areas. Grill was great…used two nights. New washer and dryer was used by all. Luckily we brought our own games. Was counting on the Keriug and pods for our arrival but was not on site. Clean, quite neighborhood. No privacy from the neighbors from the porch on the right, was a little awkward. Beach and restaurants about 3 miles away. Grocery story 15-20 minute drive. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here…comfy and cozy!

Cozy getaway with gorgeous views
A small group of friends and I celebrated a birthday for a weekend here, and we loved it! The house is beautifully decorated (great for pictures) and had everything we needed. We loved the record player and backyard space. Thanks Daniel for the great stay!
