In the Trees- Relaxing getaway with hot tub! 400ft to private Lake Access!
Welcome to In The Trees
Recently updated “In the Trees” is separated from the neighborhood with old growth flowering rhododendrons and surrounded by woods on all other sides making for a very private getaway with unique views from every window.
INSIDE THE HOME Nestled on a wooded lot in the quaint hamlet of Glenn is our Michigan retreat. Designed for intimate gatherings of friends and family, the home offers multiple porches, decks, glass nooks, and a 3 season room to relax and immerse in nature. The living room is well stocked with with cards, dice and games and a big wood table to gather around. In the colder months, you can warm up by the wood burning fireplace in the living room. Off the living room are two bedrooms with queen beds, and additional sleeping for two is available via the pull out couch with memory foam. There are also two separate full bathrooms. The gourmet kitchen is centered around a large 6 burner oven and is easy to entertain in. It's properly stocked with everything you'd need to make meals at home, perhaps using local produce from Dee's Farm just down the road. There is a third bed room in the newly done garage addition, there is no heat so renting in the off season is not permitted. No pets allowed.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS: This home sleeps 6 guests Main House Bedroom 1: King Bed Main House Bedroom 2: Queen Bed Main House Sleeper Sofa Garage Bedroom: Queen Bed - GARAGE BEDROOM IS NOT HEATED
OUTDOOR SPACE Enjoy the beach rock fire pit and Adirondack chairs privately located in the back of the home or fully unwind at night in the 6 person Nordic hot tub. The large wrap around back deck is a great place to lay in the hammack, use the bag set or play giant jenga. The 3 seasons room is usable all year-round, down to 30º weather with the radiant space heaters always on.
THE LOCATION The house in just steps away from Lake Michigan. Walk 3 minutes down the road to find steps leading right down to the water! Heading north from the stairs you'll find over a mile of walkable beach. A short drive away is a local favorite: Wau-Ke-Na, W. E. Smith Preserve North Tract. The private lake access is shared with the homes in the neighborhood and is not open to the public making it private. Not only are you in perfect distance to the lake, but also to two resort towns. South Haven and Saugatuck are both a fifteen minute drive away, the best of both worlds.

We had a great stay. The house was comfortable with space for all of us to spread out. Very short walk to the beach and we could hear the waves from the house!
My family and I loved the house and the neighborhood- it was so quiet and peaceful. The private beach was perfect. We had a great visit and hope to return!
Thank you for a wonderful stay! It felt like home away from home plus the beauty and serenity of the forest and beach. Thank you for sharing your home. We can’t wait to come back!
Wonderful house in a great location. If we are returning to the area we would look at staying here again. Overall a great experience. As a family that books houses so we can cook/bake some on vacation we did find the kitchen a little lacking in basic cookware.
We come to the South Haven area every year for our family vacation and this home was by far the best we have ever stayed in. Very clean, 3 minute walk down to the perfect sunsets every night, comfortable beds, plenty of space for our family of 5!
What a lovely setting in the Trees for a girls weekend getaway. Location was perfect and easy drive to many things. So relaxing watching the animals sitting in the three season room and walking the beach. The house was very homey and had everything we needed. Kitchen was excellent and so well supplied. We loved the hot tub! Thank you for a great stay!

Hello Tammy,
Thank you for the lovely review, we greatly appreciate it. Hopefully, you can join us again (it is a great place in the fall as well). Thank you, The Jaqua Vacation Rental Team.
Very lovely property, located super close to Lake Michigan. Close to beach towns. Nice hot tub, kitchen, and living areas. A great home base for a West Michigan adventure!

Thank you so much for the great review! We hope to host you again.
House is lovely, tucked away in the woods. Private Lake Michigan beach -?! Unbelievable! 80 stairs to get to it and worth every one. We did not end up needing the third bedroom in renovated garage but it looked lovely.

Hello Erin,
Thank you so very much for the lovely review. We love hosting guests like you and we would love to host you again. Thank you again for staying with us!! Best, Anne
Great getaway in an ideal location. Easy checkin and checkout. Loved the outdoor spaces and amenities and proximity to the lake. It was really helpful to have a high chair too!
Great spot with lake access. The master bed broke the first night of our stay. While we were impressed with the rental, we are not entirely pleased with how they handled the situation or the re-compensation.
The house and location were perfect. We loved being so close to a private beach and were so close to many great restaurants, parks, etc. such a great host and such an amazing experience. So very thankful to have found this spot.
Great location for a secluded and relaxing stay near the beach. The home is spacious, has a large kitchen and natural light. Bed linens were very soft and the firmness of the bed was perfect for me. You do need some stamina to get back up the 87 steps to the beach but it’s worth it. We spotted some deer, wild turkeys, rabbits and of course many squirrels. A short drive to neighboring towns, Saugatuck, Holland and South Haven.
Clean and easily accommodated the 5 of us.
Close to lake Michigan and tons of deer.
Could use a bit more parking space as we had three cars and would of like to had the cousins over but no where to park 'em.

Thank you for reaching out to us. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, there is not much we or the homeowner can do about parking (the property only sleeps six) and there is limited space regarding the property and how it is set on the lot. Hopefully you will come back for another visit as it is beautiful there in the fall.
We are 5 women of a certain age who were on a weekend getaway. We walked down the road to the lake and dipped our feet in the water. The hot tub was the perfect size for all of us to enjoy. Thank you for hosting us. We would love to return in the future.

That is great Pam we are happy you enjoyed your stay and we would love to have you back.
Inside was nice. The window in the main bathroom doesn’t have any covering so it is very exposed to the outside. The third bedroom is in the garage and not attached, and had a lot of bugs in it. The deck and outside of the house could use some upkeep. Everything was covered in spiderwebs and leaves. The beach is nice but just know it is about 80 steps down and back up.
Lovely home with a lot of room. Very relaxing time. Listening to the waves , wind and trees from the deck. Hot Tub made for a very relaxing get away. Very short walk to Lake Mi. Close proximity to Sagatuck and South Haven.
This is one of the best properties I have stayed at. The house is beautiful with a 3 season room, beautiful outdoor deck, and of course half a block away from the beach. The Jaqua Rental team was so communicative and helpful, they made sure all our questions were answered before we even thought to ask them.
While the one bedroom being separated from the house and in the garage did break up group cohesion, this stay would be perfect for a group looking for some privacy as well. My friends and I absolutely loved this home and hope to return some day!! 10/10 would recommend
This beautiful, updated house was perfectly placed literally in the trees and within a short walk down to the beach. Don’t miss the sunset views!! We spent most of our time in the Sun Room, kitchen and dining areas. Outdoor decking made the hot tub easily accessible, so we enjoyed it at night and one morning too. We visited Holland’s Windmill Island Gardens one day, and area beaches the other two days. The bedrooms were all comfortable (note the garage shares the indoor bathrooms). As with any rental a couple of small improvements will be offered, but nothing that would keep us from returning. Lovely stay!
