About this property
You'll love sipping a drink on the deck while enjoying views of Paw Paw Lake.
Cozy lake home in convenient location situated on a channel (created by opposite island) leading to 922 acre, all-sports Paw Paw Lake, in Coloma, Michigan. Enjoy the sunrise toward the lake from the raised deck. There are water views from two bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen bed with attached bath, including shower and separate extra large tub. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has two twin beds.
Enjoy bright skylit rooms, and living room with beautiful lake view which includes queen sofa bed. The kitchen is fully equipped with coffee pot, microwave, refrigerator, blender, plenty of pots/pans, dishes, cups and utensils. There is a washer/dryer off the entrance. Stock your groceries and enjoy meals in the kitchen, or on the deck with beautiful water view. There is dock access, gradual depth frontage and public boat launch located just around the corner. You can watch those fisherman and boaters launching their boats right from the deck! Bring your rafts, kayaks, or boat and keep it docked at our pier. Coloma is a quaint town with it's own movie theater, pubs and restaurants and antique mall. The lake house is 20 minutes north of St. Joseph and Silver Beach, 24 minutes south of South Haven, and surrounded by local wineries and breweries galore. There is so much to see and do in southwest Michigan. We hope you enjoy your stay!
*Pricing is based on comfortably sleeping 6 guests. We do have a sofabed available to sleep 8 for additional fees.
** Feel free to email or message us with your questions. You may inquire about April or May bookings. We use this time to do some maintenance, but there could be some availability.
***Note: Although we DO NOT allow pets at this time, we do occasionally bring our Boston Terrier. The home is cleaned before each guest's visit, and other friends who are around our dog that have allergies are fine when she's around. We mention this in case you are deathly allergic to pets.
****Pull YOUR boat up to our dock easily. We can also direct you to a few pontoon rentals on the lake or in the area.

About the host
Hosted by Randy & Michelle Tschetter
Let us introduce ourselves. We are Randy and Michelle and we are both originally from Chicago suburbs, transplanted to central Illinois. We've been married 28 years and have four wonderful children and a bonus daughter-in-law. We enjoy fishing, the outdoors, and boating which led us to search for a fun place to get away that wouldn't take all day to get to. After exploring various locations in Michigan, we were blessed to find our home here on Big Paw Paw Lake. We fell in love with the area, the views, and the oodles of things to do in the nearby area, not to mention proximity to Lake Michigan! We hope you enjoy your stay and would love to hear about your experiences in SW Michigan!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the views from the deck and the brightness of the home with its skylit interior. We are close to one of two boat launches which make for entertaining lake activity. SW Michigan is chocked full of things to do with your family or with friends, all year long. Paw Paw Lake is also one of the largest inland lakes in the area and fishing and boating is abundant here.
What makes this property unique
We love to sit on the deck as much as possible and enjoy watching boats of all kinds coming into the lake from the public boat launch right around the corner. The first thing I do when I wake up is open the blinds to enjoy the view and the ducks that frequent our area. Since we are from Illinois, we love all the black squirrels here as well, since ours are all gray. There are plenty of turtles you may see sunning themselves on various docks, and occasionally swimming near our dock.
