Hello Sweet Friends.
This past weekend Terry and I took a weekend trip and drove to our favorite areas in Southwestern Michigan. Very cute towns along the lake.
This time we found a new and cute cottage to stay.
I thought I would share some of the pictures with you.
I loved this place it was decorated in my style so it felt like I was home.
|
The Front Porch of this Cottage Rental was decorated for Fall and Very Welcoming. |
|
When you walk in there are two living room areas. I did not realize when I took this picture the pumpkin pillow was upside down lol! |
|
This is the other side of the living room as you enter into this cute cottage. The sofa is a sleeper on this side. |
|
This is the cute dining room and sitting area plus kitchen. French doors off the kitchen go to the outside screened in porch. |
|
This is the Master Bedroom. Gotta love those vintage shutters flanking the window. |
|
I just loved all her sweet touches in her decor. That white chippy bench made me feel right at home. |
|
There is a second bedroom with twin beds. |
|
My daughters and I are planning a girls get away trip and I think this will work out great. |
|
Here are my sweet little deer females that would stroll into the yard each morning to eat what little bit of greens are still left. I could not capture them looking at me. By the time I grabbed my phone to take their pictures they were off. |
|
Here is the porch off the back of the house. Every morning this is where my female deer friends could be seen.
|
|
A short walk from the cottage is the shores of Lake Michigan. It was very chilly but a nice place to walk before dark wearing our heavy sweaters. |
|
One of the places in this little town is the Blue Moon Vintage Market. We stopped in and saw some pretty cool things. |
|
I kind of was swooning over those shutters and that beautiful cabinet. |
|
I am glad I got a picture of this fabulous Turkey because after I took this picture he was gone! Someone bought him. That guy was solid concrete. |
|
See the white chippy bench. That came home with me!!!! Shocker I know! White, Chippy and fabulous. Had to have it. |
|
In the little town of Three Oaks is a great distillery called Journey Mans. You can see them making and storing their whiskey. The food was all organic. All ingredients in the recipes are from local farmers. I had a great salad with a gin/vinaigrette dressing that was so delish. |
|
Journey Mans also has a huge loft area you can rent out. Many people have weddings here and then rent out the huge loft for family and friends to stay. |
|
One of the kitchen areas of the lofts in this place. There are 5 all together. Each with huge kitchens, living areas and bedrooms and baths. |
|
There is a beautiful porch off the back of the lofts. Just a great place to have your special family gathering. See those great chairs I found 4 just like those in a resale shop for $15 dollars each. Wooo Hooo Score! |
|
Then it was onto my favorite place. The Found Cottage in Hudsonville. About an hour drive north of where we were renting the cottage. |
|
There were so many fun fall things in the shop. |
So that is what I did this weekend. It was a very cozy, sweater weather get away.
I cannot wait to plan a girls weekend with my two daughters and stay again in the cozy cottage.
Have a good start to the new week.
Hugs,
Kris
