Creating Memories

We had a great time staying at this home with our family. We were able to enjoy everything the house has to offer. Although the weather was a bit chilly, the kids were still able to swim with the heated pool. Jim was great at communicating with me and check in was a breeze. Would definitely like to stay again.

Spring Trip

Very nice place, with lots to do. The weekend ended up being colder than we thought, so we spent most of the time hanging out in the heated pool. The pontoon being available for use was a huge bonus too! We took a cruise around the lake each day, and also took the boat and kayaks out a couple times for fishing.

This was the best place to be with your family. By having a private pool; this enabled the children to have fun while the others relaxed around the pool or cooked dinner. It was so kind to offer the old boat for an evening cruise around Paw Paw lake - just another thing to do right there. For Lake Michigan lovers the 25 minute drive to Lake Michigan was peacefully driven through the SW farmlands. What a great place! There is a great Fruit Acres farm co-op where we could eat fresh vegetables and fruit everyday!

Enjoyed this property!

Our family loved this property. The kids loved the heated pool and the hot tub! House is on the canal leading into Paw Paw lake, and we enjoyed the use of the pontoon boat. While it is not fast enough to pull a tube like others on the lake, it is a great perk. The bedroom with the bunks is separate from the other bedrooms on the other side of the house so it’s best for children a little older. We would recommend this property.

Ideal family rental!

This is a great place for a family get-together. The pool, boat, kayaks, paddle boards and hot tub were all put to good use. Good supply of pool towels were very much appreciated.The kitchen was well-equipped for family meals, beds were comfortable and adequate parking for 4 vehicles enhanced the stay. James was a most responsive host and all questions were promptly answered, help quickly obtained for our one minor problem (a fuse). I can't recommend this rental highly enough. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Fantastic property for family vacation!

What an amazing property! Right on the channel, this house offered beautiful views and access to the water. Access to the pontoon boat made this vacation a dream! My teenagers loved the kayaks and paddleboards. The smaller kids loved the pool. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and had an open kitchen/living room space which was great for our large group. Everyone raved about the comfortable mattresses in the bedrooms. Bunk room was great for the kids and they loved having their own space in the nearby tv room. I can't say enough about this property! Amazing!!

This stay has everything. A beautiful, clean house with plenty of sleeping room and sitting room. Pontoon boat is a huge plus on beautiful Paw Paw Lake. We kayaked and paddle boarded the inlet. We loved the pool and hot tub. We grilled and ate at the big table outside. It was really the perfect bigger family getaway. As amazing as the house is, I cannot express how friendly, responsive, helpful the owners are. The communication was seriously above and beyond. Thank you so much! We will definitely be back.
