Welcome to the Painted Porch Cottage, a garden-style cottage in residential Lakeside, Michigan. Fully equipped, this rustic cottage is just two blocks from a private sandy beach. When you aren't playing in the sand, a short car ride will lead you to numerous antique stores, farmers markets, wineries, u-pick farms, outdoor recreation rentals, and delicious dining options.
Inside the Painted Porch Cottage, the cozy ambiance is abundant! The bright living room offers a lovely space to sit and watch TV. Steps away, the quaint kitchen provides a pleasant space to play chef and dine with your loved ones. When you aren't eating here, the charming dining room is perfect for family-style meals.

Summary: The biggest problem we had was getting into the place. The code didn't work. We were locked out for about a 1/2 hour 1 day.You had to put it in like ten fifteen times before it would finally take, they said they were going to send somebody to fix it.But never did.
