About the host

Hosted by Shannon Wagner

Host profile image
We are so thrilled you are looking at the Coloma Cottage as a potential vacation option and know how important it is to find the perfect place to relax and have fun. My name is Shannon and along with my husband Andy, we are your hosts at the Coloma Cottage. We reside in the western suburbs of Chicago and both work in advertising but have been long time vacationers to the area. We have 3 children, our oldest son will be going to Western Michigan, just 40 minutes north of here in Kalamazoo. Our middle son is 16 and a baseball player and our daughter is 12 and a gymnast. They keep us busy but we still thoroughly enjoy any opportunity to come to Michigan and have outfitted the Cottage with things we love and hope you will love to!

Why they chose this property

We bought this adorable historic 100 year old home in October of 2021. We have been vacationing in Southwest Michigan for 20 years and our family has come to love this area and all that it has to offer. We use this home when we can, however as a family of 5 with active kids, we aren't able to use it as much as we'd like to in the Summer and are thrilled to offer the opportunity for others to enjoy this beautiful home. We hope to one day retire in Michigan. We hope we have created a warm and welcoming space for our guests as so many have done for us in the past. We hope you love Coloma and the surrounding areas of St. Joes & South Haven as much as we do

What makes this property unique

When looking at homes in Southwest Michigan, we considered towns from New Buffalo up to Saugatuck and knew immediately when we saw the front porch and location that this house, in Coloma, was perfect for us and our future guests. It's a bit quirky, if I was 100 years old, I imagine I'd be a bit quirky as well. The house has so much character but we are creatures of the new millennium and modern conveniences are still very important, so this house brings a combination of both historic charm and modern amenities. The front porch wraps around and has Adirondacks for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. It is a beautiful place to sit and relax and watch the world go by. We've put a fire pit in the backyard, because when you are on vacation, sm'ores are a must! There is so much to do within a just a short drive, explore St Joes & South Haven, go a bit north to Holland and Saugatuck or south to New Buffalo, the Warren Dunes & Weko Beach. Wineries & Breweries abound and wonderful restaurants, unique the area with few chains and so much to explore. Get the small town charm while still being close to all of the wonderful activities that this area has to offer. Lake Michigan and Lake Paw Paw offer opportunities for boating, fishing, swimming or just relaxing. We hope you love this area as much as we do!
