Short Description: Lakewood Bungalow | Screened Porch • 2 Baths • Basement Hangout • Walk to Lake• Onsite Laundry
Welcome to Lakewood Bungalow — a relaxed, thoughtfully updated lake getaway designed for comfort, connection, and easy living. This cozy home blends classic cottage charm with modern upgrades, giving your group room to spread out, unwind, and actually enjoy vacation mode. Just a short walk to the lake, you’ll spend your days outside and your evenings gathered on the screened porch or around a bon fire.
We host with comfort in mind. Expect a clean, stocked, and thoughtfully prepared home — from fresh coffee supplies to games and outdoor fun.
We want you to arrive, settle in, and feel like you picked the right place. We are right around the corner and always available for questions, concerns or local recommendations.
There’s no shortage of ways to enjoy Southwest Michigan — whether you’re here for lake time, exploring beach towns, or seasonal outdoor fun.
🚤 **Lake Life & Water Activities** Swim, fish, or boat on Paw Paw Lake and Little Paw Paw Lake just minutes away. Bring your boat, cast a line, or spend the day relaxing at nearby lake beaches.
🏖 **Lake Michigan Beaches** Drive about 10 minutes to reach some of the area’s best Lake Michigan beaches — perfect for swimming, sunsets, and sandy shoreline walks.
🍷 **Wine Trail Adventures** Explore the Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail, where scenic vineyards and tasting rooms offer relaxed afternoons and beautiful views.
🛍 **Beach Town Exploring** Visit South Haven and St. Joseph (about 20 minutes away) for waterfront dining, boutique shopping, and classic beach-town charm. Saugatuck, known for its art scene and dunes, is about 40 minutes away.
🥾 **Hiking & Nature** Nearby parks and trails offer easy hikes, nature walks, and peaceful outdoor escapes throughout the year.
🍁 **Seasonal Favorites** Fall color tours, orchard stops, and scenic drives make autumn a local favorite. Winter brings opportunities for snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and visiting nearby ski hills.
No matter your pace — adventure-filled or laid-back — this area offers year-round experiences just minutes from the bungalow.
Guests will have exclusive access to the entire property, including the outdoor patio and backyard. Check in smoothly any time after 3 PM using our secure smart lock system. Free early check-in and late checkout offered when available!
Inside you’ll find a bright, welcoming living area upstairs plus a newly finished lower-level lounge that gives your group extra breathing room — something you don’t always get in lake cottages.
The layout works well for families, couples traveling together, or friends who want shared space *and* privacy.
Out back, the screened porch becomes your favorite hangout — coffee in the morning, cocktails in the evening, and everything in between. We also include a gas grill with propane and outdoor seating for all your summer grilling needs.

We loved our stay in this cozy home. The inside of the home was just as advertised and very clean! The added bonus was the fire pit out in the backyard to relax around after a busy beach day!The location of this home was perfect for what we were looking to do in MI. We were about a 20 minute drive to several beaches and enjoyed a little fishing spot in Coloma near Paw Paw Lake. I would highly recommend staying in this sweet cottage!Thank you for a wonderful time!

My wife and I stayed there for six nights in June. It's a very nice place. It's small but very tiny and clean. We liked the kitchen layout and the front entry covered porch. The AC will freeze you out if it's too low (works well). There is no beach access, but there is a small lake access about a block away. It's really well appointed for two people. The surrounding area is nice and very quiet. Parking is a little strange but, not too bad.

The home was as advertised and very clean. It was perfect for our family of four and provided the perfect spot to get out of town for a few days!
