When
the first snow of the year comes around, there is no better place to retreat to than a cozy cottage with loved ones. And that’s exactly what Marta Malviya, of the design blog Mackinaw Road, along with her husband, Raj, and their two children do when the wind picks up in Michigan and they need to escape from the cold. But it’s not just the calming ambience that makes the house feel like home—it’s the childhood memorabilia and time-honored décor, combined with a sprinkling of festive accents, that really spark joy in this coastal cottage.
