Perfect Getaway!

This home was impeccable upon our arrival. The location is amazing, and the view was beyond beautiful. This home was a peaceful getaway! The neighborhood is quiet, the home backs up onto the water for fishing, and the fire pit allowed us to relax and take in the view.

Visit to Saginaw Bay

The property offers a unique place on the mouth of the Kawkawlin River where it enters Saginaw Bay. We were able to moor out boat directly in front of the house, providing us with easy access to the river and the bay. The house is large, clean, quiet and comfortable. A great place for a beautiful vacation.

Beautiful view!

Perfect location if you love to fish the Saginaw Bay! The White House was perfect…comfortable, clean, and the perfect location. We enjoyed the convenience to many nice restaurants in the Bay City area, as well as golf courses along and near M-13. Jessica is an awesome host! Thanks for a wonderful week of fishing, golfing, and relaxing in the Bay Area!

Family get together on the Lake

This property provides an excellent opportunity to bring your boat to a nice house where the Kawkawlin river meets Saginaw Bay. We caught many fish right from the deck of the house, including bass, bowfin, catfish, bluegill, perch, crappie, rock bass, and sheephead. Well worth the visit.

Bass fishing

The house was great! Very very clean with updated amenities. Three buddies and I stayed a week and were very pleased with how the property accommodated two bass boats without issue. Just 5 minutes from the DNR boat ramp at the mouth of the bay. The bass fishing was fantastic as well. We booked a day of walleye fishing with Nick at Bay Charters and had an absolute blast as well. Highly recommend him if you want a true professional guide that goes above and beyond. Five stars!
