About this place

Experience Relaxing Lake Life!

With an original knotty pine ceiling, you will be welcomed into this charming Michigan cottage. Open floor plan with galley kitchen, this home has everything you need for a relaxing time away. Two cozy bedrooms overlook a large wooded lot with private frontage on to Lake Allegan. Outside, take your morning coffee on the large wrap-around porch and watch the birds and boats go by. Fire pit, gas grill and outdoor dining is also available for lazy summer nights. Bring your boat, kayaks, jet skis and fishing gear. With a 70' private dock, enjoy Michigan in a quiet, nature filled retreat away from the noise of city life. 
Dogs are welcome at Pinecrest, regrettably we cannot accept cats due to allergies in our family.
Pinecrest is: 
10 Minutes to Downtown Allegan
15 Minutes to Downtown Fennville
20 Minutes to Bittersweet Ski Resort
25-30 Minutes to Saugatuck/Douglas, South Haven, and Holland
Dock is usually installed mid April and may removed anytime after mid September, dependent on the weather. 
We strive to be as accommodating as possible to our guests. If you have questions on minimum length of stay or anything else, please contact us. We will see if we can help.

Owner

English
My family and I have been vacationing and owners of several rental properties in southwest Michigan since 2011. We love the relaxed outlook and amenities this part of Michigan has to offer. Hiking, walking on the beach, antiques, dining and exploring local farms and orchards are some of our favorite things. We hope you enjoy the area as much as we do.
