Watervale Inn

The Inn at Watervale has remained in the same family since 1917. Four generations of the Kraft/ Noble family have had the privilege of welcoming guests to our little corner of the world. With our vintage cottages and incredible natural setting that includes a mile of shoreline on both Lake Michigan and Lower Herring Lake, Watervale has provided a gathering spot that is a constant in this ever-changing world. It has been more than one hundred years of traditions, memories, and connections. We look forward to the next one hundred years!

Cottages

Watervale offers fourteen cottages that range between two and five bedrooms, suites of rooms with private baths and the Inn with shared bath down the hall. Check our Cottages page for complete descriptions of each lodging option.
