We had an amazing girl's weekend at the cottage. The home was immaculate and we loved that it was walking distance to the beach. It was the perfect size for us and it was even decorated for the holidays. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area!

Perfect Fall Family Getaway
We absolutely loved our stay at the Sandalwood Cottage. We are a family of 5 (kids ages 5,4&2) and this was the perfect location! The house had everything we needed (kitchen supplies, towels, laundry, etc) it was exceptionally clean and close to all of the main Sheboygan attractions. We loved Bookworm Gardens and Above and Beyond Children’s Museum (both less than 15 minutes away). The yard was absolutely gorgeous and our kids had so much fun exploring the woods and playing on the swing set/tree house. Amy’s communication exceeded our expectations. She was so kind and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Cozy family stay for races
Loved our stay. Wish we could have used the fireplace or fire pit but our stay just wasn’t long enough! It’s about 25-30 min to Road America which was fine for us. Plenty of room. Comfortable beds, pillows and blankets! Pretty wooded setting. Will look to book again if going to area!

Cottage by the Lake
This is our third time staying at this location. Every time has been a positive experience. We love the close proximity to state parks and the nice backyard. The only negative was a neighbor who was doing concrete work while we were there. This was only one day thankfully and definitely not something the owners could have controlled. We would definitely stay at this cottage again.

Lovely house
We enjoyed our stay. We created meaningful memories here. I would like to visit again! I did have one misunderstanding with the listing. When it stated 300 feet from the lake and showed a picture of a trail, I thought our property had lake access 300 feet away. Although the lake was 300 feet away, it was someone else’s private property. We were able to enjoy the lake, however, at the public access down the street.

Woods Plus Water = Relaxation
My wife and I were looking for a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of our working lives. We found the perfect place, a “Tranquil Cottage in the Woods with Lake Michigan only 300 feet away.” The perfect combination of the beautiful woods and the lapping/crashing waves of Lake Michigan gave us a relaxing weekend. The cottage was immaculately clean and well furnished. We highly recommend this home away from home.

Perfect getaway
we loved our quick getaway from the city to be in nature and relax in the woods. The cabin was absolutely perfect for this and furnished beautifully. If we had more time and it wasn't Christmas, would have been very easy to drive into town or up to Kohler. But for our brief visit, it was enough just to get up and go outside and hear the lake and sounds of the forest. We hope to stay here again!
