“We could not have loved our time at
this beautiful property more! ”
“We had 8 ladies for an easy getaway--everyone had their own space, with a bathroom on each floor, and the shared living spaces were a dream. We had a wonderful private chef prepare dinner for us one night, so can confidently say the kitchen was set up to support real cooking. Each of us vowed to bring our families back for another stay. The property owners were extremely responsive to questions before our stay and responded within *minutes* when we had a little trouble figuring out the door key pad upon arrival. The panoramic views of Lake Michigan are a dream come true -- we witnessed every season during our mid-March stay, including crazy winds. The home kept us nice and toasty while we watched the snow whip around outside. Even in the harsher elements, the hot tub was an incredible treat. Truly, cannot recommend this space more!”

This is a magnificent property. It comfortably fit our whole party and had lots of activities on site. The lake was beautiful in the fall. Would stay here again 100%

“We reserved Lakeside Living BNB for an annual women’s retreat for our church…. and we WILL be back! Briana was amazing to work with. Professional, great communication, and well accommodating. This home feels like a million bucks yet has an intimate vibe that we all felt. It was well stocked; between towels and toilet paper to kitchen needs and games. Not to mention all the windows to take in the beautiful view of the water! The furniture was comfortable, from beds to lounging. We felt welcomed in this home. 5 stars!!!”

“This house on Lake Michigan is just as incredible in real life as it is in the pictures! From the crow's nest 360 views to the arcade in the basement, every foot of it makes for a great getaway. We loved the large open first floor that allowed people to spread out into different groups but still be together. The dining room table is nice and big, and playing games in the sun room looking out on the lake was amazing. We loved this place and would definitely come back!”

“Our stay at Lakeside Living was an absolute dream. From the moment we arrived we were blown away by the exceptional experience. This property surpassed our expectations provided us with a truly outstanding vacation! The amenities offered here were simply incredible, the gorgeous in ground hot-tub quickly became our favorite place to relax and unwind after a day of exploring, the outdoor space was impeccably designed with a massive fire pit and dining area that allowed us to enjoy delicious meals while soaking in the serene beauty of the lake! Inside was even more amazing, the design seamlessly blended every space and the beds were like clouds. The golf simulator provided endless entertainment, while the home theater offered a cozy setting for memorable movie nights, the arcade games, ping pong, and basketball court kept everyone entertained regardless of age. We even discovered a newfound love for pickle ball during our stay! Truly perfect getaway. We can’t wait to stay again!”

“Quiet..comfortable..accommodating..serene! Look no further! I have never had a more accommodating host than I did with this property. From the moment you arrive and walk into this amazing home you will feel relaxed. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook large meals and have sit down family meals. The pontoon boat gave us hours of relaxation on the water during the day. A few of us would prepare dinner, while the kids went and enjoyed the pickleball/basketball court on the property! After dinner we would enjoy the large firepit with s’mores and games while the sun set.. the hot tub was amazing and so easy to use and enjoyed by all! While the kids retreated to the basement living space to watch a movie, the adults enjoyed the golf simulator for a quick round of competition. A quick walk or short pontoon ride to the ice cream shop (The Jetty) was a nightly ritual! You will regret not having this experience! Book now! We already booked our trip next year!

“This home is the most beautiful home ever!!! We LOVED staying here. It’s even more beautiful than the pictures. It’s modern but unique and still feels cozy. The hot tub is huge and beautiful to be right on Lake Michigan. We came in the winter so we weren’t able to fully enjoy the lake but in the summer this house would be a MUST to visit!! Would 100% recommend and would love to come back.”

“Absolutely beautiful airbnb. We had a group of 19 people that felt very comfortable at this home. The view from the top of the stairs was incredible and you can catch a good sunset from there. The bedrooms were very cozy however I wish there were more bathrooms. We had a great time in the hot tub and the views from the airbnb were incredible. The hosts were very responsive and provided recommendations of places to visit around Saugatuck. I would definitely recommend staying at this beautiful house!”

“Absolutely phenomenal stay! This home is absolutely stunning! Of course the lake is great - lots of room, not overly crowded, fun for boats and seadoos - but this home is easy to get to, has a TON of room, the beds are so comfortable, the kitchen is well-stocked and is CLEAN! We absolutely LOVED the “barn” across the street. The boys played basketball every night and we fit in family tournaments for pickle ball! Even the barn was clean!! I can not say enough great things about this property! We will absolutely be back!!!!”

“Our stay at the Lighthouse Bluff was exactly the getaway we needed. What an incredibly BEAUTIFUL location! It was peaceful & spacious. Falling asleep at night listening to Lake Michigan’s water hit the shore was magical. Thank you again for giving our family a next level holiday trip.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lighthouse Bluff. We are 3 families spanning several generations, gathering together. The house was big enough that we could enjoy our space, yet get together and enjoy each other, whether it be around the dinner table, the fireplace or the game room. The views of Lake Michigan were amazing. This was our first trip to Lake Michigan and we felt that we were at the ocean. The weather was unusually cool but we were still able to enjoy the views while inside. We enjoyed all amenities- the kayaks, the hottub, kitchen amenities ( we grilled several times during the week), the balconies, and the game room. The management team was very responsive to our needs, thank you Briana and Michael. We hope to return next summer!”
