Overall, not excellent but good. Kitchen very good. Queen bed fine though bedroom is small for the size of bed. Quiet neighbors. Flooring is attractive. It was clean and towels were fine.
Negatives: Definitely not for handicapped or mobility impaired. The nice, large deck has two steps of normal height and then a 2-inch final step that blends in with the deck and trips one. I fell once because of it. A bright strip is needed to alert one to the final 2-inch step.
The shower is small and old. Size was not a problem to either of us because we are not overweight. For large people it would be difficult. The greater problem was one of the shower doors was off the track and I could not get it back on. The shower is the worst problem. Window venetian blinds worked fine on three windows. Four others either did not work or partially worked.
A new air conditioning/heating system installation is in process. Due to wonderful weather, we did not need the small window a/c. We were thankful for space heaters some mornings. Living area furniture (hide-a-bed sofa and chair) were functional for sitting but not great.
We enjoyed our stay but probably would not return unless we knew maintenance had been completed. It has the feel of a project in process--which eventually could be 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.

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.

Humble, but clean and cute. Close to the beach and just a few miles from St. Joseph, a great little beach town.

John was very accommodating. The house was beautiful and peaceful. Something we needed at that time due to a loss in my family. Definitely will stay at one of his locations when we come back. Thank you again so much John

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 would’ve been an issue.
Had coffee maker, tiny microwave and tvs are tiny as well.

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 didn’t 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!

House was very clean. Factory next door was loud as well as highway behind house. House was not located on Lake Michigan…had a long walk down unstable stairs (with no railing) to get to beach…not suitable for handicap individuals. Traffic was loud and factory had fumes and noisy during the day. No cards or games of any sort.

Cute cottage, but shower needs attention: shower doors do not slide easily and come off track, water handle pulls right off, shower drain cover is unattached to floor, leaving drain pipe easily exposed.
First rental we’ve had that had a key for entry and not a lock box. Concerned that any previous guest could have made copy of said key for nefarious reasons.

The experience was okay. Was unclear whether I actually had it rented so I contacted the host who assured me it was. Just a little disappointed it wasn’t closer to the water.

Cozy and clean
We had a nice time at the property. It was close to beaches, antique stores, wineries, and driving along red arrow highway is pleasant. The tv gets only a few channels and is a little small, but it wasn’t a huge deal because we weren’t there to watch tv. It would have been nice to know we could have brought a dvd for the tiny tv in the bedroom.

Love, love, loved it!
We had our annual sister trip (3 of us) and this place was fantastic! Very neat and clean, bigger than we expected and so cute! We were able to cook inside and out. Easy to talk to owner. Centrally located for placed we wanted to visit. We really enjoyed our time in "The Cozy Cabin". Thank you for making our mini vacation so perfect!

Excellent Location for Exploring Area!
We had such an enjoyable stay at the Cozy Cottage! The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed to make breakfast and dinner in and pack lunches to go for our days exploring (this was very important as our daughter is too young to receive the covid vaccine and we weren’t sure how many outdoor dining options we would find in the towns we were visiting). The location was excellent to visit both South Haven and St. Joseph/Benton Harbor. We had two solid days packed full of activities in those towns, which are excellent for small children. We did not find the walk to the local beach to be great with a small child as it’s along roads without sidewalks, but it’s a close drive and has a nice playground. We loved the atmosphere of the lot, it was very private and wooded and even had some wildflowers (Indian Pipe) that we never see in our part of the state. We enjoyed being able to have a campfire and make s’mores and eating outside. The cottage was quiet and peaceful, and just a great base to explore this area. Lots of bath towels and washcloths provided, and the washer and dryer was useful for our beach towels (bring your own) that got wet at the beach. Our daughter has asked to go again! We would definitely go back. Owner was very quick to respond to email questions in advance of our trip.

Cozy, clean & quiet
Great host. Very responsive.
Place was clean and cozy, good size kitchen living area combo. Kitchen has electric stove, microwave, toaster oven, dishwasher and well stocked.
Bathroom is a good size, you have to go through bathroom to get to bedroom but that didn't bother us.
Bedroom is cozy but there is good enough room to move around and has washer /dryer in closet.
Backyard and porch are nice and big, if you go to the beach which is about a 2 minute drive or a 10+ minute walk you can use the hose at the back of the house to wash off before you enter the house. Overall nice stay

Weekend getaway
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!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property was immaculately clean. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked. It was very quiet and relaxing. We loved having the grill and deck as well. It was very close to the towns we wanted to visit as well as several beaches! Would definitely reccomend this nice little cottage!!

Nice little cabin. Nice, peaceful area. Nice price!
Great little place for two on edge of the woods with nice open yard. Didn’t attempt the beach access, however 15min drive to St Joseph. Queen bed ok, pullout sofa was tolerable if you found the “sweet” spot. Would definitely stay there again!

Nice clean, cozy cottage close to Lake Michigan!
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.
