About this property

Brand new Lodge-Style Home Steps From Lake MI, just off of Lakeshore Dr

Lakeshore Woods Lodge is a Lakewood Lux property. Check us out on our website or on social media!

Completed in 2021, Lakeshore Woods Lodge provides the perfect balance of privacy, expansive views, proximity to downtown, and familiar home amenities. Lakeshore Woods Lodge was built for suburban families of surrounding cities to relax and enjoy a non-traditional luxury experience that is often lost in the suburbs. This particular property is on a rare location accessed via a private road on Lakeshore Drive that provides the absolute perfect mix of Michigan woods, lake proximity, nearby Douglas beach, and downtown Saugatuck shopping. With an abundance of windows and natural light, gorgeous views of the surrounding woods and seasonal lake views await. The property is nestled among trees and tucked away on a wooded lot, yet steps to Lake Michigan bluff sunsets and a short drive to virtually everything!

WHY THIS LOCATION?
Our guests enjoy the proximity to activities and the ability to return to the quiet of the lodge after a long day of fun. A brief walk down the private road yields gorgeous views of the lake on a 50'+ high bluff that exists only in this rare section of lakeshore drive. Bluff sunsets are truly amazing and unobstructed by housing or trees. The lodge was positioned to enjoy the seasonal lake and sunset views from within the great room, loft, or screened porch of the lodge. We encourage guests to walk to the bluff for the ultimate experience.

THE LODGE
The lodge’s sprawling open concept floor plan provides multiple living areas for a whole group to spread out, remain comfortable, and enjoy the lodge. Cooking, living, and dining come together as one while the bedrooms are quietly tucked away. Guests enjoy the views from the common area while others seclude in the loft or the bonus room for movies and games. Gather around the indoor or outdoor maintenance-free instant-on fireplaces and enjoy a wholesome time with your loved ones before treating them to a delicious meal prepared in the fully equipped modern kitchen. A therapeutic retreat to the large screened porch for an early cup of coffee or a sunset drink is the ultimate break from suburban life. Create lasting vacation memories and recharge at this rustic beauty!

Great place for a family gathering
Beautiful property in a great location. Highly recommend for families looking for a comfortable, kid-friendly, yet still luxurious-feeling option. The home is new, decorated beautifully and outfitted with all the amenities a family could need. Communication with the owner was friendly and prompt. Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful cabin
The cabin was exactly as it’s shown with everything you need. The location was on a quiet road but close to everything. We walked a few blocks to the lake to watch the sunset.

Fantastic home surrounded by woods and short walk to Lake Michigan views
Gorgeous home and host was very conscientious and thoughtful to make our stay comfortable. Fantastic location surrounded by tranquil woods with daily visitors of white-tailed deer including fawns. Short walk to coastline and beautiful views of Lake Michigan. Very close to downtown Saugatuck area. House perfectly laid out to host two families and well-equipped for young guests. Would absolutely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Erica

Host profile image
Our family has been visiting the Saugatuck/Douglas, Michigan area most of our life. We hold a million sepia-colored memories in our heads. As Chicagolanders, we escape suburbia for the dunes, beaches, and woodlands of the Lake Michigan shoreline every chance we get.

We enjoy the area so much that I thought others should too. At a time when the town was still quiet and homey, I started on a journey of building true vacation destinations that are unique from anything you would find in suburbia, true cabins that drive relaxation and escape.

With no appetite for owning or managing rundown, churn-n-burn properties, we prefer to focus on high-end vacation homes with incredible amenities. In order to deliver value to our guests, the properties themselves became more than places to stay, they became experiences. Providing an experience is a combination of a unique property, different than anything our guests have at home, quality in-house amenities, unique exterior amenities such as location, and on-property activities such as jacuzzi, pools, and fire features. Finally, the experience is topped off with special treatment and high-attention from the management company (quite literally, us).

Someone once told me, “After kids, you don’t go on vacation. You visit places.” I didn’t want that for Lakewood Lux. I wanted to make each property family-friendly with the comforts of home. We splurge on high-end items like kitchen appliances, pots and pans, serveware, linens and towels to ensure a guest experience that is like or better than home. Then, we make sure all the amenities are maintained by professionals. Folks work hard to earn their vacations, and I wanted to ensure their visits were pleasantly clean, comfortable, and fun, because that’s what I would want.

Revel in The Lux.

The house was positioned to enjoy the seasonal lake and sunset views from within the great room, loft, or screened porch of the lodge, watch as the house glows orange while night approaches.
