Large fam8ly home

The place is beautiful with all the amenities you would want. However, anyone bringing their boat must realize that the neighbors dock is 6 blocks down the road and 80 steps from the driveway to the Lake.

Good week long stay

The pictures did not lie. The house was very clean and the owner was responsive. The 2 decks were great for relaxing. Made trips to St Joseph (downtown is great), Holland (Windmill Island Gardens), Grand Rapids (Fredrik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Gardens) and Sageutuck (paddle boat). Went to 3 beaches on Lake Michigan and saw a couple of lighthouses. The faults: -No wash rag in mbr -Towels were extremely thin -Dock on lake for swimming was about a block walk _No Keurig

Amazing time

Came on a small vacation with a family group. The house is incredible with plenty of space even with twelve of us. Communication with the host was fast and check in was very easy. The views are incredible. My favorite thing was to enjoy coffee on the deck in the morning watching the sunrise over the lake. 100/10 recommend

Awesome Gathering Space

Our group has been traveling together for several years as our daughters on part of a horse back riding team. This is the first time we have all stayed in a house together. Lakeside was perfect for our four families-each parent had a room and bathroom and the girls a bunk room. Everything was clean and check in was easy. The owner is quick to respond to any questions or needs. The views from the kitchen/living room are amazing. As a bonus they had a Christmas tree that made it festive!

Lake Time

We enjoyed the amenities of the house. The sunsets from the back deck were gorgeous. Having a pool table downstairs was fun for everyone. The fire pit was nice on the cool evening. Having access to a dock was nice also since we had rented a boat. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The only item is the second floor bathroom needs better lighting to see when you are getting ready in the morning. Other than that it was great.

A wonderful place for a get away

A short walk to the small beach, with warm, shallow water, which is great for kids. There is also grass and shade there, which we found helpful. We enjoyed the kayak, bikes, and beach toys. The view of the lake from the deck and living rooms are great. We loved this spacious home. Our host was very responsive.

Family gathering house

Perfect house and location for multiple family get together. Lots of amenities including kitchen items, baby gates on the stairs, toddler high chair, pac-n-plays, canoe, kayaks, life preservers, washer and dryer and two decks over looking the water.

Great for family holiday gathering

Great property for the family to meet. There were nine of us for dinner and plenty of room at the dining table. Great views of the lake and a quiet neighborhood. Really enjoyed our stay. My only “nit” is the soft water and dry air really did a number on my skin and hands. I recommend bringing a humidifier if you’re prone to dry skin.

Amazing view needs some updates, attention to the outside experience, great responsiveness.

We stayed for my mom's memorial service because she grew up on Paw Paw Lake. Overall our experience was excellent, the view was amazing and we enjoyed ourselves as much as we could considering the occasion. Improvements neec to be made in the following areas: the grill did not work well, we put a tenderloin on, and, after 30 minutes it had to be moved to the oven. The broiler also did not work in the oven. The refrigerator leaked and we could not get that fixed so had to place paper towels in the freezer and the refrigerator. It would have been nice to know this The weather was beautiful so it would have been nice to have some form of cleanup on the decks outside so we could have enjoyed the outdoor seating area.
