Thimbleberry Cottage: Lake Michigan getaway!

THIMBLEBERRY COTTAGE
SLEEPS:6
BEDROOMS:3
BATHROOMS:1
**Has a geothermal cooling system. Please see below for details.

***Located on Lake Michigan

Your small family adventure to the Thimbleberry Cottage begins when you turn off of US-2. Soon pavement turns to gravel as you inch your way down the Garden Peninsula toward Lake Michigan. Then, as you move closer to the Lake, you will turn onto a decent 2-track road. Following a terrain where you need to drive slowly, plus pay attention to your markers is a part of the experience; the building anticipation as you wind your way closer to the Thimbleberry Cottage.

Once you arrive at this newly built cottage, you will rejoice you have found this unassuming home, just behind the parking area.
Keep in mind that the phenomenal view is just an opening of the door away....
Ta-da... The wall of windows overlooking Lake Michigan is sure to capture your heart.

Every detail has been attended to at Thimbleberry Cottage. The décor exhibits a simple, yet thoughtful, essence. Being able to cook while you gaze at Lake Michigan or watch a movie (via streaming or DVD) while soaking in the view of Lake Michigan are treats. Simply enjoying the sunrise over the Lake as you sip your morning coffee gives you time to reflect on this wonderful slice of heaven.

Walking down to the beach, you'll experience tide changes which display varying amounts of sand and rock. At certain times of the year, there is even a labyrinth of stones set up to provide further relaxation with a walking meditation. Calm, balance, and creativity seem to be easily drawn out of your experience at the Thimbleberry Cottage.

Sitting around the campfire at night is the classic Michigan way to wind down those days along the lake. Bring your marshmallows and stories to share. The ambiance is picturesque. The best of Michigan-- tucked between large trees on both sides with Lake Michigan in your frontal view.

One of the most convenient aspects this cottage offers is that all the basics are on the main floor. This is a bonus for anyone in your family with mobility challenges. A comfortable birds-eye view of the Lake, plus one (1) bedroom, the bathroom, kitchen, and outside deck facing the lake are all just steps away.
Plus, there are two (2) other well-appointed bedrooms, plus an additional living room/gaming area all on the lower level. In addition, the lower level provides easy walk-out access to the outside fire-pit and lake.

Although you cannot easily see the neighboring homes through the trees, we do ask that quiet times be adhered to, as we have working families living nearby. The sense of privacy is apparent.

On your way home, don't forget to pick up some local thimbleberry jam on your way home. Our hope is that the family memories you made at the Thimbleberry Cottage are etched in your heart forever.

Thimbleberry Cottage
What a beautiful piece of paradise. The pictures do absolutely no justice of how gorgeous the place is. Everything was nothing less than amazing. Very easily could’ve hung around the cottage for a few days without going anywhere. We had everything we needed and more. Will definitely be returning in the future when visiting the U.P. again!!

A lovely property
This is a lovely, clean, well appointed property. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen has newer dishes, and the two living rooms provide ample room. The beach views are stunning! The beach itself is a combination of rocks and sand, with a rocky landing as you first get into the water, but it becomes sandy a further ways out. To get to the beach you do have to go down a sandy hill that might be challenging for young children & older adults with mobility issues to manage. It is a very quiet and serene property, but be aware it is remote. The driveway to get to the property is not the easiest to traverse, especially if one had a compact car. Even though the property says it is in Manistique, it is actually about 20-25 minutes from town. Given its remote location, the WiFi was not always reliable and ran very slowly much of the time. It was concerning at points when it would stop working altogether, given there would be no way to call out in case of an emergency. It seems a though the property may still be on the newer side, as none of the bedrooms in the basement have closet rods installed and there is exposed metal edging in the basement where the carpet is yet to be completed. It would be helpful to install additional towel bar/hooks in the bathroom, as it only has one of each presently. Overall, would definitely stay at this property again with the comfort, cleanliness and amazing lake views that it offers!

Quiet getaway
This property is perfect for a quiet getaway! The home is spacious, clean and well appointed. We were in need of nothing. The views are breathtaking and the beach is clean and easy to walk. The rustic drive is just that! Bringing low riding vehicles or trailers would not be easy! We enjoyed the 5.5 minute bumpy ride to the main road, it makes the adventure feel more secluded! We will definitely book again if we are in the area!

A welcoming place and beautiful view
The cottage is very comfortable and clean, with a wall of windows for the best view of the lake and forest, and a big deck for relaxing on and for stargazing. Driving directions and household notes were clear and made the entire stay easy and relaxing! Everything in the house was clean and comfortable for good nights' sleep as well! Thank you.
