Beautiful Lake Michigan Home - Private Beach - Fall Dates Available

Fall Bookings - Experience the magic of autumn at our cozy Lake Michigan retreat, where the vibrant colors of fall surround you. Spend your days apple picking and exploring nearby pumpkin patches. Stop for a cider or microbrew tasting on the way home, then gather around the firepit to make s'mores under the stars. Our home offers the perfect setting for family fun and making memories amidst the beauty of the season.

"The sun is out, the grill is hot, and the water is luke. If I can interest you in a swim and a little BBQ, just follow me..."

Get away from it all and enjoy the privacy of this "Pure Michigan" rambling cottage on almost 2 acres with your own private beach. The location is perfect - 15 minutes to Saugatuck or South Haven, and a million miles away from everything else!

Have the best of both worlds: a secluded cabin in the woods, right on Lake Michigan. Perfect for a family get-away, and large enough to accommodate multiple families and larger groups.

The beach is in your backyard - no road to cross, and no neighbors or association to share with. There are 82 easy steps down to the private beach - perfect for using the 2 kayaks or 2 stand up paddle boards. Use the 18-foot floating mat to get the whole family out on the water! Or just lay in the hammock at the bluff to watch the clouds and the boats go by. Enjoy the sound of the surf and the beautiful sunsets, while you relax with a beverage on the Adirondacks at bluff’s edge. Great backyard for family games: bags, badminton, and others.

The kitchen, island, and bar area, are set up for entertaining a large group. A chef's stove and stainless cookware make for grand meals indoors. Or cook outdoors in the new outdoor kitchen with beverage fridge. The indoor kitchen boasts a wet bar with beverage fridge and stand alone ice maker to help ensure the beverages keep flowing.

Ground floor Master Bedroom Suite has its own fireplace, with private access to the deck, and en suite bathroom. Two other ground floor queen bedrooms will each comfortably house a couple and share a full bathroom. You can pile the kids into the two upstairs bunk rooms for a week of fun they will never forget! One room has 3 twins and the other has 2 twins, and there is a half bath upstairs. The twin beds are all on wheels, and can be pushed together to make a king in each room, so the house will hold 5 couples, each in their own room.

High-speed Xfinity Internet with Wi-Fi access all the way to the beach allows you to stay connected, or you can leave your phone behind and relax off the grid. The house has central Air Conditioning and a backup generator to make sure that you are never without power. Window Air Conditioners upstairs make for comfortable sleeping in any room.

The house is perfectly located right in the middle of "Lakeshore Harvest Country" - numerous wineries, breweries, quaint restaurants, farm stands, and antique stores, among other diversions, make for no shortage of things to do. Virtue Cider, Waypost Brewing, Evergreen Lane Creamery, Crane's Orchards, and Saugatuck Brewing Company among others make for fun outings. The property backs up to Dee's Lakeshore Family Farm, which offers U-pick in season and a wide variety of fruits and vegetables to purchase. Here is a link to a map of nearby farms, wineries, and other attractions:

Six of us decided to get together after several years - we could not have picked a better place. There were so many gathering areas (indoor and out) where we could just sit and talk or just relax and enjoy the view - and the views of Lake Michigan were great. The house was perfect for us. We hope to return some day.

50th Wedding Anniversary with our family
We had a wonderful time at this home with our children and grand daughters. The home had everything we needed and the best lake view. We enjoyed playing in the lake, collecting rocks and evening campfires. We felt like we owed Lake Michigan. This was the most peaceful place i have ever been. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked wonderful meals there and in the outdoor kitchen. The many outdoor dining and sitting areas were great. This was a bit of heaven on earth.

Great Lake Michigan views, peaceful location
Our family of 7 fit very comfortably in this quiet home on Lake Michigan. We enjoyed the outside area more than the inside-the yard and sunsets were great as was the outdoor grill. The kitchen was very well stocked and labeled and easy to work in. Wish there had been better lighting in several areas, including the master bedroom. The master also could use additional window treatments. Overall a great week!

Second year just as delightful!
Our family had the best vacation ever last July when we stayed here, and I rebooked soon after arriving home to Kentucky. We looked towards returning all year and we were not disappointed. The kitchen and backyard got a workout, my kids enjoyed a "cold plunge" most days, I spent hours looking for rocks (yet again) and those sunsets...what a show! Thank you, Jeff and Christine, for sharing your warm, welcoming, family friendly home. We Stampers hope to continue a tradition of making priceless memories here!

Voted "Best Family Vacation Yet"
Absolutely wonderful property with something for everyone (plus a personable, informative, quick to respond host...Thanks Jeff!) My husband and sons enjoyed the best views while reading, all the kids loved the kayaks and SUPs, I loved walking the beach looking for rocks. Grandkids had tons of yard games to choose from, along with buckets/shovels/etc for the beach. Campfires at night, coffee with a lakeview in the morning! This house is...quirky, with LOADS of personality. By far, the most comfortable, welcoming, "liveable" vacation home we have ever had the pleasure of visiting. We've already booked for next year!

Awesome Vacation
WOW - all I can say is this house was PERFECT for a week with my entire family (7 adults, 2 toddlers, 2 infants). Jeff, the owner is very quick and efficient with his communication. See key points from our stay below: -When we arrived, the house was very cleaned and VERY organized. Everything is labeled which makes it very convenient for guests. -The house is well equipped for cooking as we cooked dinner each night. -We ate outside every night at the big picnic table out back…it fit all of us comfortably. -The backyard is where we spent most of our time. The kids enjoyed playing in the yard and the adults enjoyed the views of the lake from the patio. -The private beach was very convenient for all. Jeff has made the steep trek down to the beach very accessible with heavy duty stairs. -The house comes with paddle boards, kayaks and a magic carpet to use. My grandson LOVED using the kids kayak and would have spent all day in it if he could. Overall, this was a 10 out of 10. We can’t wait to come back!

A perfect fit
This spacious home was perfect for our family of 8 that included 3 small children. There was plenty of room inside and out for gathering together and for finding quiet time when needed. We enjoyed the beach, the various provided games, the large and well equipped kitchen for making meals together, and the evening ritual of watching that wonderful view of the sunset. Any questions that we had during our stay were quickly answered by the owner who couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. We made great memories in a beautiful setting and would love to visit again in the future.

All 9 of us loved our week here...
We are a 3 generation family ages 3-70. I asked each one to comment for the review. "If you don't like silence, move on..." ""Beautiful setting with something for everyone." "Tranquil" "The perfect mix between backwoods, backyard and beach." "Quite relaxing even without the state flower of Michigan!" "Lots of animals in the yard. If you like nature it is a good place." We had room to spread out and also gather together. And we had black squirrels galore. Who knew?

Great lake front experience in a spacious cabin
Perfect getaway for two, as well as for a large family. A few maintenance items need attention, but many may not even notice. The beech access is a challenge, but well worth making the trip from the house to the beach. Walkable beach depends on season and tides, but we enjoyed every minute of a beach walk in high winds and surf.

Beautiful kitchen! Enough space for six adults and one toddler. Hammock, swing and treehouse were so much fun! Lots of space in backyard to run around and lounge.

Great vacation home with stunning view
We really enjoyed our stay at this large, clean vacation home with comfortable furnishings. The house is nicely decorated with lots of amenities, and the communications from the hosts had all the information we needed, and really made us feel that they cared about us having an enjoyable stay. We were a family group of 6 adults. The huge backyard space included plenty of places for all of us to sit outside to enjoy the view of the lake and the sunsets, play corn hole and a tree swing. The stairs leading down to the lake were nice and sturdy, and we loved walking around on the private beach. We would stay here again, and highly recommend it.

Lake Michigan splendor
The home fit our group perfectly with five kids upstairs and six adults downstairs. The home was well equipped, particularly the kitchen. The wine fridge and ice maker were nice bonus amenities. The outdoor space and facilities between the house and the steps to the Lake were fantastic. Everything was used from floating raft to kayaks to stand-up paddle boards to fire pit (two nights with s'mores!) If you have young children or grandchildren, like I did, the swing and climbing structure were a HUGE hit. The entry from the beach to the Lake was very rocky ... water shoes or very tough feet are essential. Jeff has done a great job with pest control as we were virtually mosquito-free. The wifi worked well and is available all the way to the beach due to Jeff's efforts to provide the required electronics. We had hoped to bike into Saugatuck but there is not a good path and it is too far. This is a fantastic VRBO property if you're looking for a family vacation with privacy yet easy access to Saugatuck and Holland.
