PENTWATER HISTORY CRUISE RETURNS FOR 2024 SEASON

Pentwater’s “water taxi” is in the water and area residents and visitors can again board this 1960's-era U.S. Navy whale boat (not ADA accessible) for a casual, one-hour lap around historic Pentwater Lake and down the Channel. History Cruises depart on Thursdays through Saturdays at 3 p.m. from the Fourth Street Dock. The cost is $15 per passenger age 13 and older. Children 12 and under are free, but must reserve a seat at no charge.

The captain and passengers will be joined by a Pentwater Historical Society volunteer docent who will tell stories about people and places from Pentwater’s past, going back some 400 years. While cruising past various locations, the docent will talk about early Pentwater landmarks that once stood there. These include the railroad depot, Eldred Shingle Mill, Hotel Valeria, “White Elephant,” Sears and Nichols Canning Company, Pentwater Furniture Company, Pentwater Bedstead Company, local newspaper office, U.S. Lifesaving and Coast Guard stations, ferry, swing bridge, Pentwater Brick, powder magazine site, “The Dock,” and the original community hall. Passengers also will learn why nearby Dumaw Creek, northeast of the Village, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

As passengers leave the boat, they can show their appreciation for the docent’s knowledge and time by making a small donation to help support the admission-free Pentwater Historical Museum at First and Rutledge streets.

For more information about the History and other cruises available on the historic “water taxi” (note: not ADA accessible), and to make paid reservations, visit www.ptwtaxi.com. For more information about the Pentwater Historical Society and museum hours, visit www.pentwater historical society.org.

WELCOME TO THE SEARS NICHOLS COTTAGES IN BEAUTIFUL PENTWATER, MICHIGAN!

**A COVID-19 NOTE:. Michigan is currently on a shelter in place mandate until the end of April. We expect/hope to be on the other side of the curve by mid-late May. So, we're hopeful about June, July, and August. But, these are uncertain times. We are continuing to receive reservations for 2020 and even 2021! Should reservations need to be cancelled due to COVID-19, we will be giving renters the option of transferring their deposits/contracts to the following year, or getting a refund. You may have heard about the temporary hold that the VILLAGE OF PENTWATER put on rental licenses in the village limits. We are not in the village. But we do want to respect the seriousness of the virus and again, are hopeful about June, July, and August for the sake of Pentwater (which depends heavily on summer tourism).

The good news is, we've been at the cottages since March 16 doing our Spring Cleaning and Maintenance...and they've never looked so good! Thank you and stay well!**

Sears Nichols CottagesWELCOME TO THE SEARS NICHOLS COTTAGES IN BEAUTIFUL PENTWATER, MICHIGAN! PLEASE SEE “PHOTOS” AND INDIVIDUAL COTTAGE ALBUMS FOR RATES, DESCRIPTIONS, AND PICTURES. Our 3 cottages are designed to give you the best of an old-fashioned Lake Michigan summer cottage vacation with your family. We are located just 1 mile north of the village of Pentwater on private acres of wooded Lake Michigan dunes.

We’ve named our cottages in honor of Trystin's beloved maternal grandmother, Ardis--whose ancestors summered in Pentwater all the way back to the 1800's (and still do). The Sears Nichols family owned the Sears Nichols Canning Factory, headquartered in Ohio. It was one of the largest fruit and vegetable canning companies in the United States until the 1930’s, when they lost their bank financing during the depression. Our logo is an adapted version of their original logo! One of their 12 factories was once located on the shore of Pentwater Lake (sadly, it's no longer there), as was the family’s summer cottage (now the Abbey Bed and Breakfast).
