2nd time staying here. Sheila (host) is extremely responsive to questions and comments. Clean, lovely home that accommodated myself, spouse, adult daughter and son-in-law and their 3 kids. Large assortment of beach equipment (chairs, umbrellas, towels, wagon) and easy walk to a lovely beach. Kitchen well stocked with supplies and spices. Would have loved it if there was soap and shampoos as we did not bring any (so used to having the big squirt bottles supplied at hotels and other vrbo’s) but made do.
We would rent again, no question!

Uncorked was perfect. The quality of the home, the location, the comfort, the cleanliness, the amenities, and don’t forget the lighting - all were beyond expectations! We had a great stay and that included all of our time in Uncorked.

Everything about this property is amazing. Extremely clean & organized. They had games to play, books to read. The house had all of the amenities and household items we needed. The beach was a 5-minute walk and the local coffee shop was a 7-9 minute walk. Sheila was responsive and replied to my text questions very promptly. A great getaway spot! We would definitely come back.

I can't say how much we enjoyed our trip. I was very impressed at how well stocked the place was. The proximity to the beach was an added bonus, we were able to go a couple times despite it being September. It's also a great location, near restaurant, hiking and nearby towns such as New Buffalo and Threw Oaks.

This place is great. Super clean, well taken care of, more equipped than any other VRBO I’ve ever been at. You can tell these people genuinely care about you being comfortable and having a good time when you’re there. Great communication too. A+

The hosts thought of everything you would need for your stay, including a beach cart, beach chairs and umbrellas and an amazing library of books to read during your stay!
Thank you thank you! We loved it!

This cottage is a hidden jewel. Quality work was done on the interior and exterior. Great kitchen set-up and a variety of cookware. Also, a well-stocked library of books and games for all ages. The upstairs and downstairs Sonos speakers was a nice touch. Two-thumbs up.

What a lovely spot! The location is off the road slightly but perfectly located to walk to the lake, store or the Whistle Stop for breakfast. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed starting slow over coffee discussing all the neat features of the cottage and how we want one just like it! The porch was so nice and kitchen table was an inviting spot to compete against one another at Yahtzee and cards. We will definitely look to stay at Uncorked Cottage again in the future!

This is our 2nd time staying here and it was just as good as the first time. We didn’t have time to use it, but there is a fire pit now that I wish we would have been able to use, we’ll make sure for next time. House is clean, beds are super comfortable and very close to great places to eat. Cannot wait to stay there again. Shelia and John really make you feel comfortable too!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay where everything was just right, including size, comfort and location. Nice quiet spot, yet close to restaurants, beach and other activities. Many thoughtful details, such as books and games. Well equipped kitchen!

This is a wonderful property with all the essential modern amenities. It is a short walk to a very beautiful, level beach. Would readily stay again.

This was our second time booking Uncorked Cottage and we were even happier this time! We enjoyed the paved fire pit area with the solo stove for s’mores 3 nights. We just love sitting on the screened in porch and enjoying our coffee and bakery goods from Black Currant Bakehouse. The house is so easy to walk to and from the beach. Sheila has everything you would need at the house to make it easy on what you need to pack. We grilled steaks one evening. It’s truly one of the best vrbo’s we’ve rented. We plan on coming back next summer. I don’t know how many times I said to my husband that I just love this place! ❤️

Daughter's wedding weekend
Our stay was a wonderful experience! The home is beautiful. Loved the screened in porch! We were able to have an early check-in and a late check-out since there were no bookings before or after our stay. The walk to the beach is about 5 minutes which was great. The hosts are so friendly and responded right away to our questions. I would highly recommend this home. We are already talking about going back!! Thank you again for an enjoyable stay!

Exceptional cottage
So glad this new property was available for a last minute weekend getaway with family. Everything and more as advertised. Beautiful and comfortable accommodations. Worth noting if you will be staying during cooler temperatures, the terrazzo floors on the lower level can be cold on the feet. Plenty of space for gathering together for dinner inside or outside around a fire; quiet reading area upstairs. And a short easy walk to beach access and Lake Michigan . Our family likes to cook together; our hosts made that easy with a fully equipped kitchen. Looking forward to a return stay

We had a marvelous day at Uncorked!
Uncorked Cottage proved to be just what we needed to “check out” and relax for a few days. Sheila and John were amazing hosts, very attentive, and offered a getaway that was well stocked with everything we might imagine we would need. We liked the secluded location of the cottage and immediately fell in love with the kitchen and the screened in porch. Although there were just two of us, we commented on how nice it would be to bring other family members to enjoy. Union Pier and New Buffalo are nice little towns with a lot of local color. We patronized many of the local businesses and found all to be very welcoming.
We will definitely recommend Uncorked to friends and family who might plan to visit SW Michigan.

excellent property
Friends together for a long fall weekend. The cottage was perfect and so well appointed. Our hosts made sure you have everything you might need. The neighborhood was quiet but assume it is lively in the summer. We will rent this property again.

Great Place in a Quiet Neighborhood
This was a great place to stay. The attention to detail in the house was impressive. From the choice of books on the shelves to the beach supplies and kitchen equipment, this was a pleasure. The front porch was our favorite spot each evening. Great funiture and taste. Congratulations!

The best vacation home
This was our second stay at the cottage and we hope to come back in the future. The house is brand new and super clean. It is walking distance to the beach and close to restaurants and a grocery store. The screen porch is a plus. Sheila is a great host and responded to our questions immediately. Uncorked cottage is the perfect beach house.
