SHARING OUR BEACH
According to our Protective Covenants, the Cobmoosa Beach is for “the common use of all members of Cobmoosa Shores Association, their families, and their guests.”
The membership is further reminded that the Beach is a private park owned by the membership of Cobmoosa Shores Association (CSA). As platted the beach stretches from the northernmost and southernmost lot boundaries and extends to the lakeshore from the westernmost platted property lines to the mean high-water mark of Lake Michigan. Therefore, the Cobmoosa Shores Beach Area includes not only the flat sandy beach but also the grassy dune between the westernmost property lines of property owners and the sandy beach.
In addition, the CSA also owns the two lots ordinarily referred to as the North Access and South Access, as well as the lot across from the North Access ordinarily referred to as “The Park”.
These Common Areas—the Beach Area, the North Access, the South Access, and The Park—are meant for the enjoyment of all members and their guests. Enjoying these Common Areas requires that each member and their guests to have consideration for each other and to follow these commonsense guidelines:
