About this property

Lakeshore Woods Escape

Private year-round escape perfect for getaways and family gatherings. Spacious recently-built six bedroom home on wooded acreage that surrounds a sunny yard with in-ground heated swimming pool. This property is not available for weddings or high school/college events. The minimum age to rent the property is 27.

Six bedrooms including bunk room perfect for kids with full + twin bunk bed sets. Large game room / den opens on to screened porch overlooking the woods and backyard pool.

The pool will open for the 2025 season on May 9 and will close on Sept 22.

The house has a three bedroom/two bath main floor area with open kitchen/living/dining room, large closed in deck for group dining with heat and AC, laundry room and large primary suite. Downstairs is an expansive game room and den with ping pong and foosball tables, a 75" TV and three sofas, a bunk room that sleeps 10 with private bath, a half bath and a large screened porch with outdoor living area that overlooks the pool. Attached and accessible from both the house or a separate outdoor entrance is a two bedroom, one bath apartment with its own kitchen and open living area, washer/dryer and private screened porch.

The in-ground pool with tables, umbrellas and chaise lounge chairs is in a large open back yard with great afternoon sun exposure. The yard is surrounded by dense woods that offer complete privacy. Across the street is a lakefront nature preserve; down the street is the trailhead of a walking path through the woods to a Lake Michigan beach. One mile away is West Side County Park, with amenities that include a playground, public beach, restrooms, and lawn area / playing field. The charming towns of Douglas, Saugatuck, Fennville, and South Haven are a short drive away.

You'll have access to the entire house, yard and pool. We are close by and available by email, text or phone, but will otherwise stay out of your way! The pool will open for the 2025 season on May 9 and will close on Sept 22.

After booking is confirmed, guest and host will execute a separate rental agreement. It is a standard contract that is required by my insurance company and shouldn't contain any surprises.

Our House in Fennville

The property was fabulous from the moment we drove up the quaint gravel driveway! Exquisitely furnished with a kitchen filled with all one needs to tend to and entertain a large and varied group. Spots to gather inside and out. Privacy and quiet, as needed.

Awesome Summer Weekend

We had an awesome summer stay. Everything in the house was in perfect working order and there was lots of space and things to do. We spent the weekend playing yard games and enjoying the pool. We did NOT want to leave!

Great place!

We stayed here for my friend's bachelorette party and it was the perfect place for it! The huge table gave us a place to all sit and eat meals together and there was more than enough room for everyone. Great place!

Fantastic property in beautiful setting

We had a weekend getaway with 3 families that this property was perfect for! The kids were entertained by the games in the basement lounge, backyard and of course the pool. The grill and fire pit areas were a hit and the porch dining allowed everyone to enjoy meals together with space to spare. The location is close to all of the nearby places we were planning to visit, but still felt really private. The house folder had wonderful information about the area and addressed all of the house info. What a fun and relaxing holiday weekend!

Perfect for us!

This home we have rented two years in a row and we never do that! It is the perfect spot for us. Most of us are 2-4 hrs away. We have a week of sibling time and then we host a family reunion of our kids and grandkids. It’s perfect!

Christmas gift getaway

We had a wonderful stay, at this amazing home with gorgeous property. The entire family enjoyed the time spent there, making memories. Just a short drive to several area highlights. Retro boats, Saugatuk dune rides, and Dunes state park to list a few. Loved every minute of our getaway.

The fireplace in the living room didn’t work and the coffee maker also didn’t work. Had to bring the coffee maker from the apartment to the main area to accommodate everyone! Also would be helpful to have instructions on how to work the TVs! Us older folks are not up to date on the newer technology!

Family Summer Vacation

Our family of 8 adults and 6 children (6-14) throughly enjoyed our week in Fennville. The kids loved the bunk room and the wonderful theater area. We loved the pool and the kids played in it daily. Shopping is nearby in both Saugatuck and Holland with plenty of good restaurants to choose from. We all enjoyed picking peaches at Cranes. Owners are especially responsive and gracious They are conscientious about the grounds and the house. We would return again.

Great family place.

The set up of the home was great for us with three families and 4 children from 8 to 12 years old. The bunk room is great along with the games. The pool is great. If I had a criticism it would be a lack of good lighting and prep space in the kitchen. We cooked most of our meals and were rather crowded in the kitchen. The dining porch was a nice addition for our family meals and after dinner games. We would stay there again.

An overall terrific time enjoyed by our family of 16. Plenty of room with ideal amenities, spacious kitchen and dining areas and a comfortable “bunkhouse” for the kids! The pool and lake/beach proximity were added exclamation points, providing fantastic memories! A special anniversary celebration enjoyed at a splendid location!

It was a beautiful, well kept house with a beautiful kitchen and numerous bedrooms. The area is beautiful. We had six adults and six children from 4 to 15 years old. We had a great time at the nearby beach and in the pool. The local towns are charming. The grill worked perfectly.

This property was fantastic! Pictures of inside and out were accurate, house was clean, nicely decorated, spacious and comfortable for all. Everyone that stayed loved it! The “dining hall” was perfect for meal time as well as game time! Wished we could have stayed longer in preset to take advantage of the great backyard as well. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!!

Perfect for large family gatherings

The house worked beautifully for our large family reunion! The primary bedroom is spacious, the apartment was perfect for the family with 18 month old twins and the bunk and game rooms were a big hit for the tweens in the group. We enjoyed having family meals at the large table comfortable for our group of 16. Owner very responsive. Highly recommend this property.

Wonderful family/friend lake MI vacation

Really excellent home. Location was very close to everything as stated. House was so big and we had 18 people at one point. We all had a great time in the pool and playing tons of games all over the house. The wifi was sometimes a bit unreliable, but otherwise all was excellent. Service was excellent, as well.
