We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Great location, walk right out to the lake to swim and the pier with pedal boats and a row boat for use. The kids swam and fished quite a bit. The cottage was spacious and clean and has a very large deck with a grill. We made s’mores later at night in the fire pit. We will be back for sure next summer.

Lake view

Rustic lake house not far from South Haven had everything we needed and we enjoyed the lake view with eagles and swans we fished swam and used the paddle boat. North beach was the best and Marias was the best restaurant and the Saugatuck dunes rides are a must great family Vacay

A Wonderful Escape

We really enjoyed our stay at The Icehouse. Everything was just as it was described. We used the kayaks and were enthralled by the swan family. This was a perfect place to enjoy the area including South Haven and Saugatuck.

Relaxing Getaway

Great place to stay right on the waterfront! The views were amazing, weather was perfect and the water was so calm. The history of the ice house is pretty interesting. The only other thing I would comment on is the fact that the two rooms are semi-private. So I would say be sure you are staying with family or close friends that you don't mind having a bit of openness to the rooms. We really enjoyed our stay!

Fun at the lake

Overall had fun at the lake and good fishing. Close to nice beaches. Place is a little more dated and a little dustier than expected. Clean enough to not be a major concern, but just know what to expect.

Pullman lakehouse

Had a great time. Very peaceful & relaxing atmosphere. There wasnt much traffic on the lake either & we caught quite a few bass. Only negative was the oar locks were broke so we couldnt use the row boat. We tried all the oars available also. So we had to fish from paddle boats. Kitchen was nice & had a few pans,utensils & more. The wifi was hit & miss but we werent on our phones much so i cant really give an oponion on that. We do plan to stay again sometime.

Nice quick getaway (:

The lake and area was peaceful and quiet, good fishing and the use of the paddleboat is a plus (: The icehouse is very quaint and cute. I loved the kitchen island! Very close to Lake Michigan, Saugatuck and South Haven. The Saugatuck Sand dune ride was fun! The Michigan Maritime Marina is a must! Both very cute little towns to visit with good food. Only 2 downfalls, the beds are a little creaky but not terribly uncomfortable and the Wifi is quirky. Will definitely stay again!

If you're looking for a quiet place to relax, this is it. The porch is 15 steps away from the waters edge and the view is lovely. The lake was not crowded by boats, mostly quiet pontoons. This cabin is situated at the end of a short road, so there is zero traffic to hear. The cabin has plenty of seating for hanging out or reading. A decent sized dining table and all the necessary tools for cooking and dining. Only a quick 20 minute drive to South Haven for restaurants and shopping. And there are multiple, excellent Mexican restaurants in easy driving distance. When booking, bear in mind that this place has wonderful cabin vibes. Don't expect luxury accommodations like a high end hotel. The ice house is decorated with nature paintings and photographs and a few hunting trophies. Feels like you're up north. Bring some DVDs if you like to chill in front of the TV. The Wifi works perfectly on the 1st floor, but was spotty upstairs in the bedrooms. There were two full sized beds upstairs, plus 3 twin roll out beds. The sleeping area is not huge. I'd say it fits 2 people in each room really comfortably. But it can sleep more than that, especially kids. The rest of the cabin is quite spacious. The price for this place is very fair, especially considering the view and quiet location and quick drive to many restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay.
