About this house rental
Step into the Lemon Drop Cottage and start to relax. Our 3 BR, 2 Bath home features a large living room and open concept dining room/kitchen with an island bar. Although this home is part of the historical society, it still retains the charm of being built in 1871. But don't be fooled - the lemon drop also has many modern upgrades. A brand new kitchen, nice new comfy mattresses and of course....Wifi!
Master bedroom features a queen sized bed and has en suite bath.
Guest bedroom has full sized bed and one twin bed
Bedroom upstairs features 2 twin beds.
Off of the dining room is a slider leading to the large enclosed porch, which is great for those cool summer nights when you'd like to sit and still enjoy the outdoors a bit longer. Off of the porch is another outdoor area - a deck/patio area so if you'd like to sit in direct sunlight during the day or into the evening you can relax and do so! The patio area is also equipped with a grill so you have plenty of space to sit, relax, and prepare dinner for the evening while you enjoy a refreshment.
Our cottage has all the comforts of home so you can enjoy your stay in Pentwater and just relax.

This is the second year of staying in this VRBO. Sara was easy to work with, the home is lovely, with everything you may need. While the home is a short two block walk to downtown, the neighborhood is very quiet and private. We will definitely visit Pentwater and this home again!

Great

Our stay was enjoyable and my only regret is we didn’t have more time! The home was a comfortable size for 3 adults and 2 kids (under 3) to stay. We loved the screened in 3 seasons room, both for our Toddler to play and after the kids went to bed. The location was convenient, 1 block from the main strip and 3 mins from a coffee shop :) The window AC units helped keep the house cool when needed but we only used them once! The space felt private and we would stay here again
5.0
The cottage is lovely! My family loved being so close to town, for pizza and ice cream! The master bedroom with full bath, a nice kitchen for cooking, table space for a group to play cards. along with the screened room, is the icing for me! The upstairs is fine for 2 kids, as long as you expect, and know it’s a historical home, so quite tight. We will return!
5.0
Close walking distance to anything you could want in town. Beach just a little further and walkable. Fantastic screened in porch and back patio. air conditioner was most welcome on about the warmest days of the year. Owners easy to contact and took care of a little problem that day.

The house was really cute! It was close to everything. The attic was a little sketchy but my grown daughter agreed to sleep up there. I wouldn’t have and neither would any of my sisters have wanted to stay up there. The stairs were steep and short and the ceiling up there was very low! Great for kids only! The bathrooms and kitchen were nice. Loves the screen porch the best! We hung out there every day! The second bedroom is super tiny! No room for your clothing or luggage. We used the large room to put all our bags. Great for a family but not for couples. The master bedroom was large and had lots of storage space. Overall we really liked it even with the drawbacks.

We are three lifelong friends of over 45 years and love our girls trips. This was our second time staying at The Lemon Drop within 3 years and it has become a favorite. The home is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and walking distance to everything! We’ve decided to make this an annual trip! Can’t wait to come back next year! Thank you!

We visited Pentwater for a quick family reunion and were pleased that everything about the house was so clean and organized and fresh. Most importantly, it was comfortable. It was a relaxing visit. Most enjoyable. Thank you!

Visited Pentwater for a couple of nights with another couple. This was our first visit to Pentwater and it definitely won’t be our last! We were pleasantly surprised how nice Sara’s house was and how conveniently located it was to everything (stores, restaurants, beach). It was perfect for 2 couples, and everything we needed was available in the home. Thank you Sara!

We love staying at this location. We have stayed multiple times and plan on staying here in the future! Great location close to town. My kids love it here!
5.0
Lovely home just blocks from the water. Extremely clean and well put together. Especially love the screen porch, which was perfect for summer evenings or coffee in the morning. Linens were clean and in good condition. The home was well stocked with appropriate dishes. Couldn’t have asked for more perfect location for our Pentwater vacation. There were no downsides at all.
5.0
Set in a prime location on Pentwater, the beach and town were walkable. The hosts were nearby and very accommodating. We hope to stay there again next year. Thank you!
5.0
We all liked the house. We loved the screened in porch. Very relaxing. Since the master bath is so small, It would be nice if there was a mirror above the small dresser in the bedroom. It would let 2 people get ready easier. What would even be better would be a second vanity on that wall. Since it backs against the shower, Water & drain would be accessible. But still, best place we’ve stayed in Pentwater so far.
5.0
A group of friends and I kicked off the start of our summer break staying at this delightful cottage! Super cute screened porch to relax on and short walk to the Antler for dinner.
My family joined me the next day and they loved it, too!
We spent the evening on the porch again, listening to music and playing cards.
Comfy beds, space to spread out, and two bathrooms!
We had the perfect weekend in Pentwater. Thank you!

This is a super clean and lovely home just steps from downtown Pentwater. Amazing screened porch and back deck. Great for relaxing. The beach is within walking and biking distance. The TV streams well and internet connection never failed. Has washer and dryer- big bonus:) Happy to discover plenty of games for family to play. Perfect!
5.0
The cottage was close to town (nice short walk) in a quiet cute neighborhood. It had a nice porch that was very enjoyable to sit on and chat with friends. It was very nice to have a fully equipped kitchen with spices even! We enjoyed a couple of nice evenings playing games at the table, relaxing on the sectional, and snacking at the bar.
Hope to go back soon!

Lovely Cottage
We had never been to Pentwater before and were here the week prior to our son's wedding. We were THRILLED with the Lemon Drop Cottage. (Some of our friends and family were not so lucky with their accommodations).
The cottage is just as listed- very clean- updated. I appreciated the supplies in the kitchen- I had brought trash bags etc- but they were also already there. Obviously, there might not always be this or that- but I really appreciated what was there. The kitchen was LOVELY.
The beds were nice- my 12 year old loved the upstairs room. There were plenty of extra pillows and blankets. We enjoyed the couch- quite comfortable for the 5 of us. We also spent a lot of time on the screened in porch- just lovely. My college age daughter and husband both had some work to do that week- and the Wifi was perfect- and although the cottage is small- there was PLENTY of room for them each to have a workspace.
I had one panic about AC- as I'm hot natured and knew I'd be getting ready for a wedding. I messaged the owner and got a very quick and accurate response- which I appreciated. (My poor husband then had to fit a fan in the car). But, with the downstairs window unit and 2 fans (cottage has one) the cottage was lovely the whole week- even with 80's outside. There are ceiling fans too.
The location is AMAZING. We were steps away from the main street in Pentwater as well as an easy walk to Mears beach. We wish we'd had more time to explore!
We would not hesitate to stay at the Lemon Drop again! :)

short walk to everything
Walkable to restaurants, shops, beach and other entertainment. Property is well maintained and stocked with linen, towels and for preparing and serving meals. Brought my family with grandkids, have stayed previously and plan to stay next year. The screened porch is the best feature.

Weekend stay
This place was perfect for my family. Very close to Silver Lake sand dunes and walking distance to town. We had a great time playing yahtzee, so many games to choose from. We enjoyed watching football on the screened porch and I cooked a great meal in the kitchen. This place has everything you need for your stay. Will definitely come back in the future.

The opposite of a LEMON - our stay was perfect at the LEMON DROP!
Love the location and the house is just perfect! The owner's were amazing and attentive to any question or need that we had. We are looking forward to enjoying the Lemon Drop again next year :)

short walk
The property is nicely decorated, makes it comfortable. Location is centrally located. But the screened porch is the best. Planning to return next year.

Great location - very cute!
Cute and quaint! Owners very responsive! Minimal space to put clothes and food. A window air conditioner in the third bedroom would be a plus! The back yard and deck was a great space! No fire pit was a negative for us.

Perfect ! Great experience!
We had a great stay and would highly recommend this place! The screened in porch and fenced in backyard was perfect for our family. The kitchen had everything we needed and the house is so accommodating! Close enough to walk into town and not on a busy road. Can't wait to come back!

Great Place to Stay
We had a great time at the Lemon Drop! It was very clean and decorated so cute! It is close to town and we were able to walk to all the shops and the beach. Sara was great at communicating and made sure that we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We definitely want to return in the future and would highly recommend this location to others.

Girls Weekend
The Cottage was just as represented. We loved the fantastic location, we were able to easily walk to all that Pentwater has to offer. The deck, screened porch, and backyard were fantastic and where we spent the most of our time.
The kitchen was impressively equipped and had everything we needed to cook breakfast in the morning and enjoy charcuterie in the evening.
I especially enjoyed drinking my morning coffee on the screened porch in the extra comfy rocking chair.
Outside of the cottage it seems like covid has taken a toll on some of the area businesses, but there is still plenty to offer!
Bri’s Pies made us an excellent dinner and we loved strolling through the town shops.
Overall I highly recommend The Lemondrop for your next Pentwater getaway, you won’t be disappointed.

The porch is the BEST!
We loved our stay at this property. The location just a block from town was perfect for walking or bike riding. The spaciousness and cleanliness was so appreciated. The back deck and back yard was nice. We stored our bikes there easily. The screened in porch was our favorite part of this house and I'd go there and stay again just to get to sit in this porch! The kitchen was fully stocked, including spices and plastic bags/foil, which are very much appreciated when you only need a couple shakes of something!

Girls weekend
This was perfect for us. It was everything that they advertised. There wasn't much open due to the season and covid but we still found many nice items at the stores that were open. The size of the living room allowed us to lounge in our pajamas, drink wine and catch up on our lives.

Perfect Getaway
Plenty of charm, plenty of room and amenities, spotlessly clean, a block away from unique Pentwater shops and restaurants, and responsive hosts. What more could you ask for? We loved it!

Perfect Location!
We stayed at the Lemon Drop Cottage for a quick little weekend trip amongst friends. The location DID NOT DISAPPOINT! A very short one block walk to village, and we also walked to the beach with no effort. Unfortunately, we had a very rainy visit and ended up spending a day inside. But the cottage was well stocked with lots of books, games, and cable tv, so we were just fine! We truly enjoyed our girls weekend at the Lemon Drop Cottage. We can't wait to come back when its warm!
