The space
Inside, four fantasy-themed bedrooms (1 king, 3 queens) and 3 full bathrooms await, including an iconic heart-shaped soaking tub for two. The grand sunken living room soars with vaulted cedar ceilings, skylights, and a wood-burning fireplace, anchored by a self-playing grand piano and massive sofas you'll never want to leave. A dedicated home theater with a 4K projector and 120" screen sits alongside a built-in karaoke stage for nights that take on a life of their own. The oversized kitchen is built for groups: double ovens, generous counter space, and room for everyone to gather.

Step outside and soak in your private hot tub beneath a canopy of trees on 3 serene, secluded acres. Two miles from Lake Michigan's beaches, wineries, and shops, yet feels like a world apart.

Heart-shaped details, whimsical touches, and one-of-a-kind furnishings tucked into every room. The kind of place that makes you want to call your friends mid-stay just to show them where you are.

An adults-only retreat for romantic escapes, anniversaries, birthdays, bachelorette trips, and group celebrations. All guests 18 or older, maximum 8 registered guests. Please book with your accurate guest count, additional guest fees apply for groups beyond 2.
