Welcome to the Farmhouse, a beautiful four-bedroom country escape set on a dozen private acres in Fennville wine country. Designed for families, couples, and groups, our home features a private heated pool, hot tub, firepit, outdoor dining, and plenty of space to relax and reconnect.

Our book club had a girls weekend and the property was perfect. Everyone loved the decor and whimsy of the property. Our only minor complaint was not enough dish soap as we stayed in the whole weekend and cooked. Otherwise, the host was accommodating and responded quickly. Thank you!

The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked.The upstairs was warm at night but there were fans provided.The pool was great. It’s a short walk from the house and had plenty of outdoor water toys and outdoor furniture.The screened in porch was disappointing as the screens were torn and mosquitoes were plenty.It was nice having a washer and dryer on site.The firepit area was great for making s’mores with plenty of of seating.

My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. Check-in was very easy. The instructions and communication from the management company were thorough and exceeded my expectations. The house was clean and felt like a “home.” We enjoyed walking the property and all it had to offer - especially the pool, hot tub, front porch, and screened in porch. We definitely hope to make a return visit.
