Very clean property. The kitchen had pretty much everything you'd need - knives, cutting boards, pots and pans, blender, toaster, etc. The beach is small but gets the job done. Very quiet section of the lake. Overall it was perfect for what we needed.

Such a cute little home, and the perfect spot on the lake for a relaxing family trip. We enjoyed spending time on the deck, fishing off the dock, grilling in the backyard. Thank you!

This was our 5th time staying here for a full week. We love the house and location. Great swimming off the pier, we had a boat at the pier, close to Coloma and easy drive to South Haven. The owners have always been easy to work with and very helpful.

Nice little place on the lake

Our stay was great. The property is smaller (described well in the listing) but has a nice patch of sand for our son to play in, a dock to launch my Kayak from and a great lounging area for my wife to use while looking at the lake.

This was perfect for our family vacation! The check-in was easy, the house was very clean, the kitchen had all the pans and dishes we needed, there were games for us to play, the beach and steps into the lake were great, and the cove was peaceful. We truly enjoyed staying here. There was a grocery store close by and a few places to eat out. We would definitely stay here again. The owners were very good to communicate with and responded in a timely manner.

Great 4th stay!

We absolutely love staying at this house. We've now stayed 4 times for a week each time. The house has everything we need, and close enough to town and groceries. The lake is fantastic and the kids love to swim and fish right off the pier. The hosts are very responsive and super nice.

A great getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the large deck overlooking the lake. It was a great location, very relaxing, yet only a short distance from Lake Michigan. Loved it.

Quick vacay for the 4th!

We had a nice time at this quaint little property. My family loved being right on the water and being able to fish off the dock whenever they wanted. Location was great for quick day trips to neighboring coastal communities. We enjoyed St. Joseph, South Haven and Saugatuck.
