Property Description
Welcome to our Paw Paw getaway. Our family has enjoyed Paw Paw for decades and has decided to share that joy with others.
Tucked away past the dam you will find the Paw Paw Cottage. A quaint cedar shake 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage with a large yard and dock. This cottage is perfect for a small family or couple that wants to just get away and relax. Breathtaking views of the sunrise over Maple Lake pierce the east facing windows. Steam rises from the lake as the Blue Heron makes his usual fishing stop at the end of the dock. Morning fishermen troll along the lakes edge and disappear into the cove. Enjoying a fresh cup of coffee while taking in all the sights is simply joyful.
For the adventurous soul there are 2 paddle boards of differing lengths and 2 kayaks in the garage. They are very easy to use and will provide a fun and relaxing time on the water. Also available is a lily pad float for the kids and a small inflatable boat. Don't forget to paddle to the island and walk along the sandy shore.
Nearby we have the famous St. Julian Winery. A family tradition dating back many decades. I would recommend a tour. And a wine tasting! :)
A little over 30 minutes away is the town of South Haven. One of the most beautiful beach towns in all of Michigan. Highly recommended!
And you can always visit a fresh produce stand or blueberry farm.About pets:Pets allowed: dogs and cats (limit 3 total).Please confirm breed of dog when booking..About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About events:No events allowed.

Charming cottage. You can tell this cottage is loved and well cared for. You could see the updates. I was impressed with all the supplies they gave you to start off. Usually you might get 1tp roll and 1 paper towel roll, no soap. Amenties included 2 kayaks, 2 paddleboards, inflated boat, float pad thingy, fishing pole, charcoal bbq, fire pit, beach towels. Centrally located to tons of towns- holland, south haven, st joseph, Kalamazoo, etc.... honestly, though if you just want low key and no crowds, you have everything right at the cottage. My husband and son caught tons of bass. 4 were over 3 lbs. They caught couple fish a day. Fenced yard on 2 sides. Our bulldog was able to enjoy being outside with us! Quick and easy communication with Bart. Highly recommend!!!

A real gem on Maple Lake
We have stayed on maple lake a few times before but I have to say that Bart's place was the best, it is very clean relaxing and beautifully decorated and the view of the lake is the best..My favorite time was taking my coffee on the deck early in the morning and watching the sun come up. Bart and his family are very blessed to have such a beautiful place and I hope we can come back.

Great time!
As usual, we had a wonderful time at this lovely cottage. Bart was very responsive as usual too. We love that he put a ladder going into the water--it helps alot (also it was my favorite place to drink my morning coffee.) We didn't go fishing but saw a lot of fish popping out of the water. You Looking forward to going back again next year!!!

Mother's day weekend at the lake!
Beautiful property with all the amenities! This home is clean, comfortable & meets every need. The deck is fantastic with an outstanding view of the lake! We were lucky to have perfect weather & spend most all our time outdoors, but if not there were movies, games, puzzles & a large dining table to gather indoors. Friendly neighbors & a great town. Plenty of great restaurants nearby & wineries too!

Fantastic Cottage by the Lake
This is an amazing little cottage on the lake! I could not believe how quiet and peaceful it was there! The cottage matched the listing to the T and was very clean and comfortable. My only regret is that I had to work so much during my stay I had very little time to relax in this amazing oasis!

Amazing Stay
Staying at Bart’s place was an incredible experience. The location is absolutely beautiful, right next to the lake — peaceful, scenic, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The place itself was spotless, cozy, and even better than we expected. Bart is a truly wonderful host; he’s thoughtful, kind, and genuinely cares about making sure you have the best stay possible. I can’t recommend his place enough and would definitely love to come back!
