Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Gull Lake

Tracy is a great host. She allowed us to check in early and took the time to show us around the house and property answering all our questions. The house is extremely clean situated in a beautiful setting. We wished that we could have stayed another day just to hang out at her place all day to relax.

Pure Michigan is exactly what it stands for. So is the Stepping Stone Lakehouse. This property is right near 3 Lakes and a Beautiful Park with lots of things to do around the area. We used the house for a family gathering because our nephew graduated from Portage North High School. The outdoor patio was perfect for us to sit outside and catch up with family and to reminisce and make new memories. 💯 would recommend this home.

I am still going to give a 5 star review regardless of a couple issues we had. First of all the house, amenities, and outside area are excellent and as described. The location feels very private and it is what we were looking for. We had 3 total issues during our stay, and 2/3 minimum were outside of the owner's control. During our drive in the Benton Harbor area had 60-70mph straight line winds that blew the outside furniture into the driveway. This storm also caused water to bypass a window and get the floor a bit dirty. Owners drove out early next morning and replaced outdoor furniture and I wiped up the water in the house. In the morning we realized the hot water was out. Owners immediately drove back out and investigated. They happened to have a property that was vacant at the time, and gave us access to it to drive there and shower. Overall communication and response was excellent. Owners made us whole, and I would recommend.

Beautiful home, nestled on a small no wake lake. Well stocked for all of our needs. Quiet neighborhood. Conveniently located near Shipshewana. Perfect for our senior girls trip.

I stayed Thurs–Sun and couldn’t have asked for a better solo retreat. I run a wellness business and needed a change of scenery to rest, reflect, and reset. This space delivered all that and more. The home is spotless, everything thoughtfully arranged. The kitchen is fully stocked with a separate pantry, which made it easy to cook all my meals. The soaring ceilings, sliding glass doors, and screened patio created the perfect indoor-outdoor vibe. I never even went to the beach, between the peaceful yard, woodland trail, and hot tub, I didn’t want to leave. My dog loved it too. Johnny and Michelle were responsive and kind, quick to help with a Wi-Fi question, then gave me space to unwind. Favorite moments: morning runs on Lake Shore Dr, sunset cocktail walks to Sundown Park, chill music on the Bluetooth speaker, and lunch at Penny Royal (the veggie sando = 10/10). If you’re looking for a peaceful, elevated stay that feels like a proper reset, this is it. I’ll be back with friends!!

A stunning house architecturally; the view of the river through the trees from the floor-to-ceiling windows was fabulous. Even the indoor mirrors were carefully positioned to provide views of the outdoors. It rained for two days while we were there but we were content to stay inside and watch the river go by, while the chipmunks, squirrels, and birds busied themselves right outside the windows. Finally, the under-floor heating worked well.

Beautiful home, peaceful, quiet, clean and private setting. We enjoyed our stay so much, felt right at home. Well stocked with everything we could possibly need. Me, my husband, two boys and our dog had a wonderful stay. Hot tub was so nice, the game room was awesome for my boys. Brian was a great host. This has topped our list of stays. Would love to come back and stay again sometime.

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was spotless, super modern, and had such a fun vibe—trendy decor, board games, and LED lights throughout gave it such a cool and cozy feel. The location couldn’t have been better, just a short walk to great local restaurants and things to do. The blackout curtains made it so easy to sleep in (seriously, some of the best sleep we’ve had in a while!), the waterfall shower is a must, and the fire pit outside was the perfect bonus for late-night s’mores. Highly recommend this spot—we’ll definitely be back!

Maybe the best Airbnb attached to someone’s home that I’ve ever stayed in. Such a sweet set up. Very comfortable, clean, private. Thankful for the keurig for coffee and water bottles in the frig. My stay was short but very restful and waking up to have my morning coffee out on the deck and watch the river and the birds was the highlight of my stay. Mark was very good with communicating and gave clear instructions. The Airbnb was easy to find, even in the dark. Of course being attached to their home there was a bit of noise from the kids in the morning but that wasn’t until after 9am and didn’t bother me at all. I’d definitely stay again if I’m in the area!

Everything was squeaky clean and just as described. Would recommend 10/10!

This place was amazing! Everything was very well thought out and Diana was very friendly. I highly recommend staying here. The location is great and the living space was well laid out. I would definitely stay here again if traveling in the area.

Sarah was friendly and helpful. I felt like I was staying with a friend instead of an Airbnb. This home is clean and exactly as it is described. I loved the unique decor and the layout. I was very comfortable there and I look forward to visiting again.

My best friend and I took our annual girl’s trip to Michigan and we are so glad we chose Amy & Derek’s place! It was peaceful and secluded. As silly as it may sound, we liked having the dehumidifier. The place we stayed at last year in Saugatuck had a lot of humidity, causing our stuff to be quite damp. It’s a nice touch! We loved being greeted by the kitties! Amy & Derek were friendly and accommodating! I recommend staying at their place! 💐

Fantastic place for a single person to hang out. Check in was easy and it's right across the street from a beautiful park. Fantastic access to downtown and to MSU. Would love to stay again.

We come to South Haven frequently and this will be one of our favorites. Great location, you can walk everywhere and the back deck was perfect for an evening glass of wine while the sun set. Great view of the Black River from the back desk as well.

Had a great stay. Place was tidy and felt like home, when we walked in. Will stay there again, if we are in town.

This was a great little place for a last minute get away! I appreciated that we could travel with our dog. It was also nice to have access to the pool across the street. My teenagers enjoyed that. The place was clean and in a great centralized location! The only thing I didn't realize is that the bathroom is attached to the bedroom so if you're traveling with more than two people, they will need to walk through your bedroom to get to the bathroom.

Debbie and Jeff's place was perfect. It felt like home, very nice and clean. Location was right smack in the downtown beat. We really appreciate their hospitality and being very accommodating. We highly recommend their place and would not hesitate to book again.

This was the perfect place for us! It was only a few minutes drive from downtown. Could walk to the beach if you wanted. Kitchen had all the amenities. We didn't get to use the outdoor areas due to the time of year but would be so nice in another season. Owners were very helpful and responsive. Beaches are clean and sunsets are beautiful. It's only about a 30 minute or less drive to St. Josephs, Benton Harbor, Saugatuck, Holland. We did them all! Would definitely stay here again!

This was the cleanest Airbnb we have ever stayed in. If there is an award for best kep Airbnb ...Sharon should receive it. Clean, beautifully decorated, just the right amount of amenities., quiet. We felt at home the moment we walked in. Highly recommend

Accommodations were exactly what our family of four needed. Great location, close to everything. Very clean and comfortable. My only recommendation to guests is, if you’re a light sleeper, bring a sound machine or ear plugs. It’s near the highway and there’s an early garbage truck daily. No fault of the owner! We’d stay here again!

Great building in a great location. Neat that there’s a sky bridge to connect to an indoor retail area. The unit is more of a studio and is not wheelchair accessible (sunken and raised rooms everywhere). The bathroom is really nice and the shower has great water pressure. The balcony is nice too. Has everything you’d need for a short stay. The floors are a little thin so sometimes there’s noise from above. There was also some street noise including the nightly musical fountain nearby at dusk. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Our family of 4 really enjoyed our short 2 night midweek stay here. Excellent location that is close to the beach and downtown Saugatuck. The heated pool and gas fire pits were really nice after we got back from a day of exploring the area. Isabel’s was just a short walk across the parking lot - great bakery, coffee shop, and market with unique foodie options. We would love to come back here.

Thank you, Ashley, for a wonderful stay! We loved the privacy and comfort here, the ease of access to interstate and everywhere we wanted to explore. Very clean and calm! Appreciated the intentional touches - coffee, laundry pods, bug spray (mosquitoes were brutal one night). Covered parking spot was nice, great communication and availability/flexibility from host. Great, peaceful stay, we would return! Only tip for future guests is to bring an eye mask for sleeping, bedroom is a bit bright from outdoor lights.
