Annual Winter Getaway

The house is perfectly appointed. It has everything you’ll need to enjoy a relaxing week or weekend. Plenty of room for a large group or if you have teens who want to hide away. Can’t wait to return.

Perfect for a group retreat

Everywhere I looked in this fun house gift box property there were wonderful, beautiful, thoughtful things that made our weekend so lovely and enjoyable. I didn't realize it would be so close to the highway... which at first concerned me in regard to vehicle noise & traffic, but that did not transpire. Plus, accessibility was extra easy as a result. I spent a lovely autumn afternoon in the hot tub... blue sky, colorful leaves, crisp breeze... I couldn't have asked for anything better. The rooms were beautifully furnished with quality beds & bedding. So nice to have so many bathrooms, too. We did a lot of cooking and were impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked with utensils and appliances, large & small. The grill was great (omg - I just realized I didn't check if the chef cleaned it before we left! uh oh) and having three fridges & freezers was super handy. I'm planning to stay here again this coming summer as my birthday present to myself. <3

Eclectic decor, thoughtful touches, so many amenities

We had a lovely time for a girls weekend away. The proximity to the lake, the hot tub, and the pool were wonderful. The backyard was private and cozy, the kitchen had everything we could have needed, the space gave everyone their own private quarters since we had less show up than originally intended.

Great property in a nice location. Highly recommend this house-plenty of space and great decor.

We loved our stay, every minute. The property owners were beyond easy to work with and flexible. We rented another property in the area last year and also had a very positive experience. My family comes her for a Midwest long weekend/spring break with our kids. This was perfect for a large family ranging from 17-25 year olds. Great decor, very clean, great amenities and plenty of space. We enjoyed every room, especially the basement and the kids loved having their own rooms and bathrooms. Easy drive to the state park and can walk to the winery/pour house. We loved everything about our stay!

Great house for our family vacation

My two brothers, our spouses and my mother spent a long weekend in SW Michigan to enjoy the wineries. This place had more than enough room for us and was comfortably laid out to provide room for all of us to be together but also space to have some down time. It was conveniently located to all the places we wanted to go (restaurants, casino, distillery…) Being March, we couldn’t enjoy the pool but thought it would be great to come back in the summer with our kids and grandkids. The house was uniquely decorated and we enjoyed discussing the artistic style(s) of the designer. Would definite consider staying here again.

Spacious retreat

The size of the property was more than adequate for our family of 11 and golden retriever. The kitchen was well stocked and the bedrooms spacious, each with its own contemporary tiled shower. The fenced in backyard was wonderful for our dog, and everyone enjoyed sitting in the hot tub while the snow fell. The villages of Bridgeman and Sawyer, with it's fine brewery are close by. We'd stay again!

Family Time

We enjoyed our stay in this home. Very funky vibe. Loved the set up of the house. Clean and so much cooking stuff in the kitchen. The location was wonderful. The only complaint we have is the TV in the basement would not work. The bathrooms were gorgeous and the hot tub was wonderful.

Really unique place!

First, I think someone (or design team) had a really great time renovating, updating and decorating the property. You can see the attention to detail (inside / outside) and effort to make it the place it is. Second, VRBO should use this place as the "quintessential definition" of a heated pool, which was very much appreciated during the cooler days we had in June. Last but, certainly not least, the home was quite clean which, made us quite comfortable staying there. Looking forward to coming back someday!

Great place to vacation!

What a perfect place to spend our week in Michigan! Location is great - down the street from Greenbush Brewery, Sawyer Garden Center, Susan's. You can also walk to get a coffee (Pheasant's Pantry) or walk to a wine tasting at Local Pour. We found the house to have everything we needed! Kitchen very well appointed and supplied. The decor of the house is gorgeous. Bedrooms offer lots of space and en suites. There are thoughtful design details around every corner. And the layout is great because we all had our own space when we needed it. The backyard is amazing. We went from day in the pool to a nice nighttime hot tub soak. The property owners are very communicative and responsive to every need. It really is an amazing property. We will be back!

There was lots of room for all of us and we enjoyed all of the areas this property offered. There were spaces for quiet moments as well as a spacious rooms and the pool/pool for gathering. Eclectic decorating and very well-equipped kitchen.

A+ MI Spring Break

This is now our 2nd Sawyer Spring Break trip to one of Tim's property's and once again, it was fabulous. Location was great esp if you like the Sawyer area. House and amenities were plentiful and perfect for all age ranges. About a 20 minute walk to the trailhead of Warren Dunes SP which we did every day. Already planning for 2023! Thanks again Tim and management crew!
