Family Reunion

Perfect spot for a group of 6. We were here for a week for a family reunion. The views in the mornings were lovely and the lake is wonderful. Would easily recommend for anyone looking for a water side property in Pentwater to rent here!

Amazing Pentwater Lake House

House was a perfect location to town, beach, and the dock was a wonderful fishing spot. The property manager was very responsive to communication.

Very nice

Excellent location on calm (and not too busy) Pentwater Lake but with access to Lake Michigan. Nice size for a large family. Three full bathrooms. Would definitely return.

Great set-up for kids!

Beautiful home with a fun bunk room and lots of toys/games/books for kids. Large kitchen table for family meals and lots of outdoor seating options as well. The boat lift was a wonderful perk and the kids loved jumping off the dock and swimming. Lots of space for a multi-generation family vacation.

Wonderful Week at Watercress

Our stay in the Watercress Cabin on Pentwater Lake was delightful. The house is very comfortable and the manager is helpful and easy to contact. Beds are comfortable and the basement area is fun for kids. The deck is where you will want to be at sunset and sunrise as it affords a beautiful view of both. Pentwater Lake is not very large, so there aren't lots of power boats on the water - great for kayaking. Nice sandy bottom for jumping off the dock and swimming. Thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay!
