Gem directly on Lake Michigan: The Pink House

This was my 4th stay in the Pink House and each visit is the best ever. We are a group of 7 who reserve a year ahead, just so we can stay in the Pink House; it is that special. The owner's attention to detail and our comfort is apparent in every room - great decorating, fantastic art, cozy gathering spaces. Donna's posted review from our weekend was not positive and I need to say that the others in our group thought it was a 5 star experience. We did have a heat problem and it was attended to immediately by Mark, who is our contact when we are there. Ditto, the toilet paper. We arrived home with a fresh supply inside the door. I have been dealing with the owner and Mark for 4 years and have had excellent responsiveness from both of them. The Pink House is the nicest place I have ever stayed in (I have stayed in over 30 properties in the last 5 years) and I can't wait to go back. There is nothing better than sitting in one of the many areas in this home looking out on Lake Michigan and savoring the sunsets.

Our family gathered at the Pink House in August and we had a wonderful

time.There were nine us and the house accommodated us perfectly. There are 3

Levels to the house and everyone had plenty of space. The location is gorgeous -

right on the lake with 2 large decks and a porch off master bedroom. We give the

House 5 stars - it’s beautifully decorated and maintained. This house will not disappoint

and we look forward to booking it next year. A big thank you to Dotsie for sharing

this amazing house.

Absolutely beautiful yet very family friendly house! Our family of nine was so comfortable there, plenty of room to gather together as a family for meals and games, yet enough room for people to retreat for peace and quiet. The house is everything a beach house should be and more. The view of the lake and the incredible sunsets were breathtaking! Everyone had a wonderful time!

We absolutely loved our stay at The Pink House! It's perfectly located in a peaceful area on Lake Michigan with picturesque views from nearly every room. We were pleased to find that the sun sets straight out over the lake from the 3 balconies, perfectly framed by two large trees. It was a highlight each night to sit outside with a drink, chatting and watching the sky turn beautiful shades of pink, purple, and coral.

Inside, the spacious home is gorgeous! It's beautifully decorated, totally updated, bright and cheerful with unique art pieces. Each bedroom is adorably done in cottage decor and has comfy beds with luxurious linens. Falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves was incredible!

It was stocked with everything we needed--2 bikes, beach chairs, towels, a crockpot, family games, books, and even Netflix and Amazon at the touch of a button. Everything was as described in the listing, and there is a property manager on call 24/7 in case you need anything.

We had such a memorable week walking the beach, swimming, biking on Lakeshore drive, exploring Saugatuck and Douglas, climbing Mt. Baldhead, shopping for art, and simply enjoying conversation with family and friends who stayed a few nights while we were there because it sleeps 10!

This place is truly a gem, and our family and friends thought it was above and beyond any other lake rental we've stayed at. Thank you for opening your unique and beautiful home, Dotsie! We hope to return next summer!

Wonderful home, fabulous setting in a great neighborhood!!
