About this cottage rental
Located in the middle of the 30,000 acre Allegan State Forest and on the banks of Lake Allegan, Pinecrest features an original knotty pine ceiling, you will be welcomed into this charming Michigan cabin. 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. Large, mature oak canopy provides a shaded respite from hot summer days.
Cabin is a two bed, one bath 1,000 sq foot house. Lot size is .46 acres, with 100 feet of frontage along the lake. 40-50 feet along the lake have been left as natural buffer from neighbors and to prevent erosion. The dock on the bank leads out into the water from the shoreline, which has small boardwalk for additional. Listing photos are from 2020, unless otherwise noted.
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 only one neighbor on each side and fully matured trees, this secluded spot will help you disengage and recharge..
While the lot is wooded; the property is treated twice a month for mosquitoes and ticks. Due to lack of sunlight our efforts to grow a formal lawn have failed. But, it is also professionally mowed and weeded twice a month. The lot is wooded and subject to plant growth and/or insects during that time. The lot is not professionally landscaped in terms of formal, organized flower beds. Wildfowers and plants that can survive in the shade, evergreen and oak trees compose most of the flora on our lot. We love its natural charm and hope you will too.
With a 70' private dock, enjoy Michigan in a quiet, nature filled retreat away from the noise of city life. Pinecrest is a great place to relax under the canopy of mature trees and enjoy nature.
Summer policy: A 3-night minimum applies to stays from Memorial Day to Labor Day. We look forward to welcoming you for a full weekend!
Pinecrest is:
10 Minutes to Downtown Allegan
15 Minutes to Downtown Fennville
20 Minutes to Bittersweet Ski Resort
25 Minutes to Saugatuck/Douglas, South Haven
35 Minutes to Holland
Dock is usually installed mid April and may removed anytime after mid September, dependent on the weather.

We had a wonderful stay on the lake! We loved the peaceful neighborhood and overall cozy vibe of Pinehurst. While the weather wasn’t the most cooperative during our stay, we took advantage of the time to watch movies and play games inside. Once the clouds parted we loved sitting on the deck and watching boaters pass on the beautiful lake. We loved fishing off the dock and even got a few bites! We would love to return! Thanks to Karen for her hospitality and great communication.

We had a great time at this home with the beautiful view of the lake. We had a camp fire one night and made smores! Overall, it was a nice vacation for us. Some minor recommendations I would make are: deeper cleaning, adding insect traps in the house as the lake flies got pretty intense at night, and adding curtains to the rest of the windows in the kitchen/living room for more privacy at night.
