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 house is large and cozy with 5 bedrooms, which sleeps 12. There is also a finished 3rd floor (available at additional fee) with 2 more bedrooms to sleep an additional 6 for total of 18, if needed. There is a very large living room with a stone wood-burning-fireplace, comfy denim sofas, and a 65 inch flat panel TV, WiFi, and a stereo. 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, 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. 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, beverage fridge, dishes, silverware and a basement with a washer and dryer. There is digital comcast cable and wifi included. We provide all towels and linens and even toilet paper.

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 driveway fits 6 cars comfortably.

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.
