About this property

Gorgeous Sandy Beachfront Paw Paw lake home with 155 ft. of frontage and dock

This large fully furnished comfortable home is located on 155 feet of sandy Paw Paw Lake frontage with a private 82 foot permanent pier with dockage for renter's boats and great pier fishing. The beach is sandy with no seawall, so great for swimming. Paw Paw Lake is a 900-acre inland lake with 13 miles of picturesque shoreline to explore, located in Watervliet, Michigan. Paw Paw Lake is one of the premier inland lakes in Southwest Michigan. It's fully recreational, including excellent fishing, power and sail boating, water-skiing and jet-skiing. The beach area is very user-friendly, especially for children since the sandy area's descent is gradual. Boat, jet-ski, kayak, and paddle board rentals are also available from local stores/marinas.

The dining room has a big farmhouse table and the kitchen has everything you'll need. From the house the wide lot offers a gorgeous view of the water and two large bay windows; one in front of the dining table and another that spans the entire living room, giving panoramic views of Paw Paw Lake. The backyard has a huge beautiful wrap-around deck. It's very large and with a picnic table, Weber gas grill and deck chairs. The deck makes an ideal outdoor living space. There is also a screened-in porch and an outside fire pit for s'mores. We even provide you with an aluminum boat with oars. There are cornhole boards, rafts, kids' life vests and toys for the beach. The house has hardwood floors throughout.

The home furnishes everything but your clothes and tooth brush including KitchenAid gas range and oven,dishwasher, microwave, mixers, 2 coffee maker, two refrigerators, extra freezer, dishes, silverware and a basement with a washer and dryer.

In the summer the house rents from Friday to Friday. Check-in is at 5:00 pm and check-out is at 10:00 am. It is available in the Fall, Winter and Spring for both shorter-term weekends and longer-term rentals. In the Fall people enjoy weekends of apple and pumpkin picking at nearby orchards, as well as wine tasting at area vineyards. The house is also close to several wedding venues.

The house has 5 bedrooms and can sleep 11 on the main 2 floors. There is also a finished attic that is available for an extra flat fee that has 2 bedrooms that sleep up to 6 more people, for a total of 17. The driveway fits 6 cars.

Lovely lake house!
This house is great - lovely outdoor space, nice deck, good lake access. Plenty of space for a good sized group, with five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Nice fireplace, well-stocked kitchen, and great lake views from the huge window in the living room. We'll be back!

Girls' Getaway
There were 7 of us. We rented this house for a long weekend to celebrate our 60th birthdays. Had a wonderful time and created lasting memories! The house and location were great. We made good use of the well-stocked kitchen, back deck and fire pit. Beds were comfortable!! Lori, the property manager, has a wealth of information and provided great recommendations on restaurants, wineries, and boat rental.

Great guys weekend. Fantastic property!
Everyone in our group thought this house was a quintessential lake house on a great lot and in a very convenient location. Very clean and spacious home and beautiful views from the deck, or hanging out on the pier. We rented a boat (Runyon Boat Rentals) and that was a plus as the lake is great. If you are interested in fishing, we caught enough perch for appetizers for 7 guys, not to mention some bluegill and bass which we did not keep. Plenty of room in the house for hanging out, playing games, etc. We cooked all of our meals in the kitchen or on grill, and ate in the dining are with views of lake or on the deck. Owners are very response and made the entire process enjoyable. Lastly, a great location near a few restaurants, grocery, drug stores, etc. Highly recommend this property!

Wonderful Lake home
A wonderful stay with my children, their spouses, and my grandchildren. The house has a lot of room to spread out. At check-in we were met by Lori who went through everything in the house and explained how to work things. Very well equipped with all supplies and towels-only need to bring your food! Paw Paw lake is a great area to stay. Beautiful views of the lake from the house and the deck. Nice beach-there are quite a few stairs from the house to the beach, but we all managed. Great family get away!

Wonderful Location on Paw Paw Lake
I grew up in the area but have spent the last 50 years on the prairie of Nebraska. When this property became unexpectedly available it was an opportunity return and enjoy the area, friends and family. This house and property are wonderful. Everything was as stated in the description. Everything was clean. The house is set up with everything you need from potato peeler to towels. There is a large deck overlooking the lake where one spends most of their time. The beach is clean with a sand bottom lake. The dock is perfect for tying up a boat. Lorie the manager, who is second to none, put us in contact with someone who would rent of their pontoon boat, which we had for a couple of days. As stated earlier, I can't praise Lori enough. A couple of unexpected touches were the bottle of wine from a local winery, Tabor Hill, and a supply of wood for the fire pit. This place is top shelf.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Offerdahl

Host profile image
This is our family vacation home. We live in Florida, but have been enjoying family time there for over 25 years. Our three kids grew up spending family summers here fishing, chasing fireflies, and living on the water jet-skiing and wakeboarding. The home is made to accommodate family time and is comfortable, not pretentious. My kids are now married or in college, so we steal precious lake time there whenever we can. We hope you enjoy building lake house memories there as much as we have.

Why they chose this property

This home is a large home that accommodates family time. It is set on the largest, widest portion of Paw Paw Lake that gives you panoramic views. The large private beach and private dock allow you to bring and dock all the water toys (pontoon, jetskis, speed boat, etc.) you need to have a great time on the lake as a family. The home has everything provided that you could possibly need so your time there is stress free; from silverware and dishes, to towels, to toilet paper. The large deck offers so much outdoor living space,too. There are so many different areas for people to enjoy without crowding each other from fishing on the pier, to reading on the screened-in porch, to grilling on the deck, to making smores in the firepit. The optional 3rd floor rental allows you to add an additional 6 people for sleeping if needed or for options to give your guests more privacy.

What makes this property unique

The basement with extra fridge/freezer and full-size freezer as well as washer and dryer is a big plus for family get-togethers. The driveway accommodates 6 cars. We will have someone check you in and give you instructions and a tour of the house and recommend area activities based on the interests of your group. We have someone within 20 minutes of the property that will be available by phone during your stay if you need anything.
