Sunset Cottage on McKinney Lake — Cozy 1BR/1BA with Kitchen & Dining

Welcome to Sunset Cottage!

Located on the northern edge of Grand Rapids, this newly remodeled, cozy retreat puts you close to all the shopping, dining, and events the city has to offer.

Enjoy peaceful views of McKinney Lake right from the kitchen window and wake up to a serene pine forest view in the bedroom. Step outside to relax around the firepit in your private outdoor space—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

NOTE *Security Cameras*

I give guests plenty of space to relax and unwind, but I’m always available if you need anything.

If there's anything that could make your stay more comfortable, just let me know—my goal is for this space to feel like a true escape and retreat. I’m available anytime for emergencies, and during regular hours for any non-urgent questions or issues.

It’s super helpful to have good contact info for someone in your group that is staying at the property, just in case I need to reach out with important updates or to resolve something quickly. If we ever need to stop by, I’ll do my best to let you know ahead of time and will always keep any disruptions to a minimum.

Step right outside and you're on scenic Highway 38—part of the Edge of the Wilderness Byway. This beautiful, winding route takes you through forests and lakes, and is especially stunning during fall color season!

The cottage is just blocks from top local spots like the Yanmar Arena Event Center, the Reif Performing Arts Center, and the Itasca County Fairgrounds Park & Campground. You’ll also find easy access to gorgeous walking and cross-country ski trails, including the Tioga Trailhead just minutes away.

Hungry or thirsty?
You're a short drive from local favorites like Rapids Brewing and Klockow Brewing Co., the award-winning UnWined Up North, and cozy coffee shops like Brewed Awakenings—not to mention unique shops and more to explore downtown.

Love golf?
You're just 10–15 minutes from four great golf courses.

Make yourself at home! You’ll have the whole apartment to yourself, plus access to the shared grill, outdoor areas, and parking. Check-in is super easy with a keypad—no need to coordinate arrival times!
