Excellent weekend getaway.

My buddies and I spent the weekend at the Honeycomb Home and absolutely loved it. It’s close enough to Kalamazoo to enjoy some nightlife but remote enough to enjoy peace and quiet. The owner was very attentive and the home had everything we needed. We definitely recommend this rental and we will be back!

Cabin Getaway

Fantastic location for a cabin getaway. Plenty of room, area was clean, and all of the basement games were fun and functional! Outdoor area had plenty of room to play games and more than enough firewood for our stay. Would recommend to anyone looking to have a weekend getaway!

Friends and family getaway

We had a lovely stay. The house is beautiful and well maintained. The hosts are attentive and helpful. The bedrooms are large and the beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed the deck and the fire pit in the evening. The kids and the dog in our group loved exploring the grounds.

Thank you for your kind words, Katie. We strive to continuously update and ensure everything is comfortable.

We also appreciate you cleaning some linens and towels. You were fantastic guests and are welcome back anytime!

This place is as advertised! It is very well decorated, clean, and the beds were all very comfortable! The showers were great and we had a nice time around the fire. We did have to search locally for some firewood but we also pillaged the remote property to find way more than we needed. About a 45 minute drive to South Haven and an hour to Saugatuck. Paw Paw is a 10 minute drive which was has a very nice downtown with some wineries and we went to see a band at the Warner Vineyards which was a very cool venue.There is a section of the bottom deck that is covered that we enjoyed one morning while it was raining. We would definitely recommend staying here and the only upgrade we could see is to add a hot tub under the deck, there is a perfect spot for it! Haha.

Great Stay!

We used the Honey Comb Home while we visited colleges in Southern Michigan. The game room and outdoor space were a great place for the teenagers to burn energy off and watch the NCAA Tournament at night. There is a definite cabin feeling but it is in great shape and excellent value.

Beautiful woodland retreat

I loved the proximity to civilization and how private the property felt. The wooded setting was beautiful. I would have preferred a king bed in the master, and a second main floor shower. The home was lovely and exceeded every other expectation I had.

Quaint and Cozy

Clean and Welcoming, just watch the bottom step. The home was the perfect size for our group of 10. We had a tree fall down during our stay and the owners were super responsive and kind. Would stay again if we are ever in Michigan again since it was very close to a lot of our family.

Great location for family wedding weekend in Paw Paw. We were responsible for flowers for the venue and had plenty of space to work at the large dining table. Family members could relax together at this "home base." Thank you.

This was a beautiful property and home. Everything was clean and all the little "extras" were provided. Thoughtfulness of bathroom supplies, bug repellent, activities, and kitchen adequately stocked. All of the large beds, linens, and pillows were very comfortable. The twins were ok for kids, not as much for adults. We loved the space for gathering our family for my dads wedding celebration. We didnt explore the area much, but the space was close to everything we needed and exceptionally comfortable.

Ryan and Andrea were excellent hosts. The Honeycomb home is comfortable and inviting due to all of the special touches that the owners have put into it. We rented the house to provide a Christmas for nieces and nephew, and it was perfect. We hope to return next year and create even more terrific memories. Thank you gain Ryan and Andrea for being so accommodating and understanding. We hope we left your home as we found it and with a little spirit of Christmas.Gratefully,John and Rob
