About this property

You'll love sipping a drink on the deck while enjoying views of Paw Paw Lake.

Cozy lake home in convenient location situated on a channel (created by opposite island) leading to 922 acre, all-sports Paw Paw Lake, in Coloma, Michigan. Enjoy the sunrise toward the lake from the raised deck. There are water views from two bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen bed with attached bath, including shower and separate extra large tub. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has two twin beds.
Enjoy bright skylit rooms, and living room with beautiful lake view which includes queen sofa bed. The kitchen is fully equipped with coffee pot, microwave, refrigerator, blender, plenty of pots/pans, dishes, cups and utensils. There is a washer/dryer off the entrance. Stock your groceries and enjoy meals in the kitchen, or on the deck with beautiful water view. There is dock access, gradual depth frontage and public boat launch located just around the corner. You can watch those fisherman and boaters launching their boats right from the deck! Bring your rafts, kayaks, or boat and keep it docked at our pier. Coloma is a quaint town with it's own movie theater, pubs and restaurants and antique mall. The lake house is 20 minutes north of St. Joseph and Silver Beach, 24 minutes south of South Haven, and surrounded by local wineries and breweries galore. There is so much to see and do in southwest Michigan. We hope you enjoy your stay!

This was perfect for our family vacation! The check-in was easy, the house was very clean, the kitchen had all the pans and dishes we needed, there were games for us to play, the beach and steps into the lake were great, and the cove was peaceful. We truly enjoyed staying here. There was a grocery store close by and a few places to eat out. We would definitely stay here again. The owners were very good to communicate with and responded in a timely manner.

Nice quiet neighborhood. The house is on an inlet so there was not a lot of boat traffic. The neighbor children had lots of fun swimming and kayaking and their parents didn’t have to worry much about them. We would definitely stay again!!

Enjoyable Trip

The house was on a quiet channel and the grandkids were able to safely swim without worrying about speeding boats or jet skis. The house has everything you can possibly need as if you were in your own home. It was very hot the week we were there and air conditioning worked great.

Nice little place on the lake

Our stay was great. The property is smaller (described well in the listing) but has a nice patch of sand for our son to play in, a dock to launch my Kayak from and a great lounging area for my wife to use while looking at the lake.

Great 4th stay!

We absolutely love staying at this house. We've now stayed 4 times for a week each time. The house has everything we need, and close enough to town and groceries. The lake is fantastic and the kids love to swim and fish right off the pier. The hosts are very responsive and super nice.

Relaxing stay

Home is clean and cozy. The deck is perfect from enjoying your morning coffee to having an evening chat. Lots of wildlife to see from the deck or the yard-ducks, squirrels, birds, and even a muskrat swimming by. Close to other attractions and just 15 minutes to several Lake Michigan beaches. Our goal was to relax, and that is just what we did. Mom, 2 daughters, and 2 granddaughters.

Limited amenities! Would have been great with kayaks or toys for the water, fire pit, fishing gear, and a dishwasher. The house is okay for the price. It is fully functional, just a bit dated and worn. The rules and checkout instructions/expectations are fairly extensive (2 pages).

About the host

Hosted by Randy & Michelle Tschetter

Host profile image
Let us introduce ourselves. We are Randy and Michelle and we are both originally from Chicago suburbs, transplanted to central Illinois. We've been married 28 years and have four wonderful children and a bonus daughter-in-law. We enjoy fishing, the outdoors, and boating which led us to search for a fun place to get away that wouldn't take all day to get to. After exploring various locations in Michigan, we were blessed to find our home here on Big Paw Paw Lake. We fell in love with the area, the views, and the oodles of things to do in the nearby area, not to mention proximity to Lake Michigan! We hope you enjoy your stay and would love to hear about your experiences in SW Michigan!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the views from the deck and the brightness of the home with its skylit interior. We are close to one of two boat launches which make for entertaining lake activity. SW Michigan is chocked full of things to do with your family or with friends, all year long. Paw Paw Lake is also one of the largest inland lakes in the area and fishing and boating is abundant here.

What makes this property unique

We love to sit on the deck as much as possible and enjoy watching boats of all kinds coming into the lake from the public boat launch right around the corner. The first thing I do when I wake up is open the blinds to enjoy the view and the ducks that frequent our area. Since we are from Illinois, we love all the black squirrels here as well, since ours are all gray. There are plenty of turtles you may see sunning themselves on various docks, and occasionally swimming near our dock.
