Large Lake House: Expansive View
Reconnect with loved ones and enjoy a getaway of lake fun when you stay at this Paw Paw lakehouse! Featuring a private dock and lake views from the floor-to-ceiling picture windows, this spacious, tastefully designed home offers numerous vacation amenities. Spend the day fishing on Eagle Lake, playing yard games or relaxing on the deck. After dinner enjoy watching the sunset over the water and then cap the night off roasting marsh mellows over the fire, or drinking wine under the party lights.
Our lakehouse is the perfect retreat for a family vacation or a long weekend with friends. The property consists of an expansive list of features that will make your stay memorable:
- two refrigerator freezers ensure you'll have ample space for food and drink
- from a large front room dining and sitting area to a separate sitting area in the kitchen to a living room and bonus sun room and then a spacious basement there are plenty of places to hang out.
- the kitchen is spacious and has all the appliances and cooking tools you need for your stay.
- dining can take place at the large table in the front room, the four bar stools in the kitchen or the two decks (one seats 4, the other seats 6 - 8).
- three bedrooms (sleep 8 in total) plus a loft (sleeps 4) and a trundle bed in the basement (sleeps 2) provides plentiful sleeping options.
- the living room has a bumper pool table and a cabinet full of puzzles and games.
- the sports garage (accessible through a door in the laundry room and slider to the yard) includes two bins of beach toys, fishing rods and tackle, and numerous yard games (bocce ball, corn hole, croquet, spike ball, kan jam, and ring toss), and a standup paddle board. A seated-kayak (stationed outside on the west side of the house) is also free to use.
- the outdoor fire pit also comes with free firewood and roasting sticks.
- if the sun gets too hot lounge on an Adirondack chair in the shaded patio
- a gas grill (with spare propane tank) is located on the east deck.
- easy access to the lake from the steps off the pier.
- sandy, shallow water for 30 - 40 meters from the pier makes for a perfect swimming area for young kids.
Everything in the lake house is for guest use except for contents of the primary garage (and the owners' bin in the pantry).
I'm available via call or text for the duration of your stay. I live an hour north in Grand Rapids, Michigan but I have neighborhood contacts that might be able to help if I'm not available.
Our lake house is on the south end of 200 acre Eagle Lake. We have 300 feet of lakefront property with neighbors on both the east and west sides of our house.
We have two driveways (a primary driveway and a smaller driveway on the west of the house). Please keep to the 15 mph limit when driving in the neighborhood.
Our pontoon boat (seats 8 - 10) is available to rent between the months of May and September. The current rate is $150 / day or $900 / week (fuel provided). Please inquire to see the pontoon rental contract. Separate payment is made directly with the owner.
We have two external security cameras. One camera, aimed at the driveway, is also a spotlight to provide light for when guests enter at night. The other camera, aimed at the back yard and lake, provides us with peace of mind that our pontoon boat is safe and secure.
Please note that we have been listing our property as a vacation rental since July 2020. We used a separate property management company but played the role of host and guest contact. We had 30+ reviews on Airbnb with a 4.97 average rating before deciding to manage our listing directly (the reviews couldn't be transferred).

We had a great lake house vacation. Rob was an excellent host (great communication and information to help us plan our trip and maximize our stay). The house was perfect for our group (6 adults and 6 children) with plenty of indoor and outdoor activities. Highly recommend!
Gorgeous home with fantastic view of the lake. If you have the opportunity to rent the pontoon, I would recommend it because the lake is awesome. Fire pit with camp fires lovely. Rob was excellent to work with. Our family gathering for the 10 of us girls was fantastic.
We had a great summer vacation at the house- the yard is big and has a gentle slope- it’s perfect for games. Our host had plenty of yard games and swimming floats available. The house was set up really well- huge table and plenty of plates and cups etc and plenty of beds. It was also really clean and nicely decorated Our host was super communicative, friendly and really helpful with the details of our trip
We take a family vacation every two years. This year’s was amazing. The use of this house was everything we needed. Kitchen was plenty big enough for our needs to feed everyone. Supplies for cooking were well supplied.
We had a wedding near by. This was a perfect spot for our group to gather before and after the wedding. The house has lovely spaces and is very well equipped.
Rob was an excellent host and responded quickly to our text message. We had 5 adults and 6 children and more than ample room. Never once did the kids say I’m bored. The water was great for young swimmers
This by far was one of the best houses we have stayed at! The pictures don't do it justice, it was absolutely beautiful. The owner Rob, was extremely responsive to our questions and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was fantastic, which it was! The highlight of our stay was the Pontoon. It was so relaxing and so much fun for the kids to jump in the lake and for the adults too! The check-in proces was very easy. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need! I would highly recommend this house, you won't be dissapointed!
The house was absolutely beautiful. We had no problems with the check in and there was a bottle of wine to welcome us. Rob contacted us that evening to make sure everything was okay and if there was anything that we needed. He was very responsive whenever we contacted him. There were only 4 of us but if you have a house full what was so nice was the many sitting areas to space out. The weather was not good while we were there but the big windows and large table was the perfect spot to enjoy the lake view while reading and playing games.
We also rented the pontoon boat unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate, we only took it out twice. Rob was so gracious and gave us a partial refund.
The kitchen had every utensil/pans you would need to use for cooking or baking.
The 3 bathrooms were well stocked with necessities and the whole house was very clean.
We would definitely recommend this lake house to others!

Nice home
We really enjoyed our stay at this lake house. It was clean and well maintained. There were even enough beds, bedrooms, and parking for our extended family. I gave the house a 4 star rating as there were 2 safety issues that should be addressed. There needs to be a safety rail on the outside of the stairs leading from the basement to the main floor. A child could easily fall and hurt himself. Also, none of the showers had a safety bar. I recently had surgery and needed a handhold for balance while showering. Seating in the living room was limited due to the bumper pool table taking up much space. Overall, it was a nice lake house.
Our group had a fantastic weekend at this VRBO. The communication as far as any needs and getting to and checking in was fantastic and very accommodating. Very highly recommend
This was our 2nd annual girl’s trip!
Aunts, Nieces, daughters & cousins comprised our Group of 12 ladies ranging in age from 83-24!
From the moment we arrived until we sadly had to leave - our expectations & experiences were more than met.
The property is beautifully decorated- clean- well laid out & has every accessory that you mAy need.
Rob was always quick to respond & most kind.
This property does not disappoint- you’ll have a delightful visit!
The home is beautiful and the lakefront property is amazing! We enjoyed everything from the view to the water toys to the boat! Rob was wonderful to work with!
I have stayed in many rentals and by far this was my favorite! Many cute & whimsical touches, everything labeled clearly, great communication with Rob! The home was very nicely appointed, and very clean! Lot's of extra goodies for our families to enjoy. Great farm stand just down the road with awesome produce! The lake was clean & very enjoyable. All in all we had a fantastic weekend even with it being Friday the 13th! Best part was we got to see a few meteors! Would highly reccomend!
Everything was perfect. Owner communicated everything perfectly. Had so much fun hope to return next year
