Cozy Chalet - Shanty Creek, Golf, Pools in Bellaire

Originally built in 1975, this Chalet inspired home was once a small cabin. After many years as a seasonal property and an addition, it has evolved into what you see today. This peaceful cabin sits on 2 acres in Swiss Village (apart of Shanty Creek and Schuss Village properties). While you do have some neighbors, the village is quiet and peaceful during all seasons.

The space
This cozy year-round retreat is ideal for families but fits up to 11 (3 queen/full beds, 2 singles, 1 single sleeper sofa, and 1 king size air mattress) people looking for a place to relax. Our Chalet is close to many of Northern Michigan's most beautiful year-round attractions, however, appeals just as much to those who plan to hunker in for a cozy cabin night. Enjoy the gas fireplace and snuggle up with a good book or your favorite streaming platform.

Inside you’ll find a kitchen with all of the necessities and then some. There is an island with 4 stools, dining room, a stocked coffee and Nespresso bar, and 2 cozy living room areas. We have plenty of games, and movies to enjoy. A staircase leads to where you will find the majority of sleeping accommodations and 1 (of 2) full bathrooms. On the main floor across from the bathroom is a bedroom with a full bed. Each bathroom has a toilet, sink, vanity, and shower/tub. The bathroom on the main floor includes a full-size washer and dryer. The Chalet is climate-controlled - heat and cooling. Our heating system is electric baseboard heat and the gas fireplace. Our air conditioning is portal air conditioners space throughout the home.

There is an outdoor fire pit with plenty of seating, complete with picnic table. The deck has a comfy outdoor furniture to enjoy, a gas and a charcoal grill (charcoal not provided).

We decorate the home during the holiday season to ensure a cozy experience.

There is plenty of parking for your ORVs, snowmobiles and trailers!

Pets and Pet Fee:

Up to 2 medium-size dogs are allowed at the cabin (sorry, no cats and they MUST be housebroke, which means no puppies. :(

Please keep dogs in a crate if they will be left at the cabin unattended - this helps protects your fur baby and our personal property.

There is no extra pet fee, but please inform owner if you plan on bringing your furry friends.

Guest access:

You have full access to the cabin, patio, and fire pit area. Just please be mindful and respectful of neighboring properties.

We love sharing our space with others, but we kindly ask you to comply with house rules because doing so helps us keep our retreat in great shape for future guests.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Other important things to note:

(1) There is wifi available, however being in Northern Michigan means that sometimes it can slow if too many devices are streaming as well as in inclement weather.

(2) While our cabin feels very secluded, we still have neighbors within earshot and visual in the distance during the winter. You WILL likely hear ATVs, snowmobiles, or animals at some point during your stay. Please be respectful of posted property lines.

(3) No smoking of any kind is allowed inside the cabin. Smoking outside is fine, but please dispose of your trash responsibly.

(4) We have board games, 2 TVs with several DVD's, and some games suitable for young children.

(5) You do need to supply your own firewood and charcoal if you plan on using grill/firepit.

(6) The cabin can get chilly in the winter ~ typical of Northern Michigan! You’ll more than likely want to keep a fire going in the fireplace for a comfort temperature.

(7) A King air mattress & sheets are provided for additional sleeping arrangements.

(8) A Pack N' Play and highchair for your little ones are also available for your use. Guests are responsible for inspecting/cleaning the Pack N' Play and all attachments before use, as well as the set up & tear down.

(9) The indoor/outdoor pool (check seasonal availability on website for outdoor pool) at Schuss and Shanty Creek are available to use, via key card access provided during your stay. This is a wonderful amenity we are proud to offer our guests, please ensure key card returns back to its original spot for others to enjoy. Failure to return, will result in a fine to replace.
