Hi Leo, thanks for choosing Sawyer Country Estate for your family's special weekend!
It was a memorable extended family experience - 8 adults and 5 grandchildren (under 8). Their provisions were amazing - in addition to every possible pot, pan, plate, cup or glass you could ever need, they had plastic plates/cups/stemware for the kids. In addition, the host was gracious enough to stage fresh flowers at several places in the house, as well as a gift bag with wine, chocolates, and other local favorites. We went through a lot of beach/pool towels, but could not exhaust the available supply (and had 3 washer/dryer combos to clean everything before the next day. Other pluses included a smores kit with graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmellows for over the fire (wood provided). Pool, hottub and outdoor shower were all a plus.A definite 5-star vacation...!!!

We really apprecite the feedback on the home! Thanks for staying!
We had a fabulous experience booking this beautiful home for Memorial Day Weekend with our large extended family. Cindy and Andy were wonderful to work with. And Andy was so responsive and helpful throughout our visit. This home has a great layout for multiple families to enjoy but the real star for us was the grounds. Despite the rainy cool weather, the pool was heated so we were all able to swim and enjoy the hot tub as well. The yard is huge and flat so we were able to set up family volleyball bocci and other activities and we spent every evening by the large fire pit with enough chairs for our whole group. We would definitely stay again! PS so close to great restaurants and if you have kids with your group, 6 minutes from Captain Mike’s Fun Park which was a huge hit for our family!

Absolutely amazing experience! The house was perfect for our multi-family vacation. Everyone was so impressed with the layout and features of the house. We are already planning our next visit back!
This home is absolutely gorgeous and exactly as described. We hosted our wedding weekend here for our closest family and friends and had a spectacular time. This is the perfect place for a large group. The pool and hot the were both immaculately clean. The whole experience was wonderful.

Amber, thanks and we’re happy to have you back for a future retreat!
We had a wonderful time at this rental! It was impeccably clean, super comfortable, love the decor. We spent hours out back swimming, hanging at the bar, making s’mores with our kids, nights in the hot tub. It was perfect! Thank you for a lot of great memories.

Glad you enjoyed your stay Meghan - thanks for choosing Sawyer Country Estate!
My extended family of 12 thoroughly enjoyed our second stay at this lovely property! We did morning yoga on the rooftop patio, swam in the pool all afternoon, made delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, and visited the many great nearby destinations. We look forward to coming back for a third visit next time!

Sara thanks for staying with us again and happy to host in the future for your family vacation!
We had the perfect stay here! The home is even better in person than the pictures. We had plenty of room for 20 guests. The beds were comfortable and each room was extremely clean. The kitchen was the most well equipped rental we have ever stayed in. We hope to be back again one day!

Hi Melanie, thanks for the comments and choosing our home for your getaway!
Our 5 year grandson called this our “vacation house”. It was everything and more than we expected! Beautiful home, luxurious bedding and towels, fully equipped kitchen and much more. The pool was equivalent to a fancy hotel. Best thing was the electric pool cover for child safety. Best stay ever!!

Why they chose this property
Sawyer Country Estate has plenty of room for large groups to spread out and enjoy the country setting while still being walking distance to downtown Sawyer. The main floor living space, with dramatic 10’ ceilings, has two family rooms and two dining tables with seating for 24-25 people. The home has 7 bedrooms with 6 king beds and 12 twins (3 bunk bed + trundle, 1 bunk bed and 1 day bed). Two of the king bedrooms are set up in a family suite configuration. 5 of the 6 king beds have en-suite bathrooms, and all bathrooms have marble finishes with Kohler spa showers. The home offers multiple spaces for groups to gather both indoors and outdoors. In warmer months enjoy the pool deck and yard. The hot tub and fire pit are open all year! The patio has two couch areas, multiple dining tables, 12 Adirondack chairs for enjoying the fire pit (firewood included) and a large outdoor bar with 6 bar stools, gas grill, wine and beverage coolers and a 65” TV with multiple streaming options including ESPN+ for enjoying fall football game weekends.
What makes this property unique
Sawyer Country Estate is like your own private resort! The spacious outdoor area has multiple seating areas and a large outdoor bar with TV for watching your favorite sporting events or TV shows. The large heated pool is open from May through October. As with all of our homes, the interior is a balance of historic charm with modern elegance. Enjoy all of the comforts of a first class hotel with high end mattresses, comfortable linens, plush towels and all of the comforts of your own home. Our spacious kitchen has brand new appliances and is fully stocked with accessories (tableware for the entire group, pots, pans, knives, Kitchen Aid mixer, blender, etc), oils, spices and everything you'd expect in a chef's kitchen. The game room in the garage has both a ping pong and pool table for further entertainment! In the fall, winter and spring, this home caters to girls weekends, friends getaways and families who seek a unique harbor country experience with convenient access to wineries, breweries and distilleries. Southwest Michigan has something to discover year round and some favor the off season for more low key escapes. Regardless of the reason for your visit, Sawyer Country Estate will be sure to impress!
Downtown Sawyer has so much to offer for such a quaint small town! Sawyer Garden Center is so much more than a place selling flowers – gourmet grocer with a selection of fine wine, spirits and beer, and their home section has many different accessories and clothing. For a first class dining experience, visit Susan’s Restaurant. They are currently open Wednesday thru Monday and walk-in only. Their patio in warmer months is fantastic! In Sawyer, Greenbush Brewery is one of several southwest Michigan craft breweries which offer their own beers on tap plus a really great food menu. Infusco Coffee Roasters is a great place to grab a morning coffee and pastry (if they don’t run out!).
