About this property

Expansive Lakefront Home with Private Dock

Summary:
Welcome to Swan Shores, a 7-bedroom, 4-bath ranch-style lakefront home offering the same inviting layout and amenities as Sunset Shores Lake House, Eagle's Nest, Heron's Landing, and Hawk's Haven. Take in stunning views of Upper Scott Lake from your private backyard beach or the expansive picture windows in the great room, complete with a kitchen, dining area, and cozy lounge. This retreat features a rec room, screened porch, deck with dining sets and a grill, a fire pit for evening gatherings, and a private dock with a canoe for lake adventures.

The Space:
Welcome to Swan Shores, a stunning 7-bedroom, 4-bath lakefront retreat built in 2019, nestled on the eastern shore of Upper Scott Lake. The spacious backyard invites you to enjoy lawn games, gather around the fire pit with seating, or relax on the private sandy beach complete with a dock and canoe. Inside, the airy great room steals the show with floor-to-ceiling lake views, a kitchen with island seating and a mini fridge, a cozy lounge area with a 55" TV, and a breakfast/game table for 4. Gather around the expansive dining table that seats the whole group! Step onto the lake-facing deck with outdoor seating, or retreat to the screened porch with a ceiling fan and an 8-piece dining set, ideal for rainy days. A gas grill is just outside, ready for summer cookouts. The rec room promises fun with pool, air hockey, and foosball tables, plus a comfy media lounge area with a 55" TV. Swan Shores is a perfect blend of relaxation and entertainment, designed for memorable lakefront gatherings.

Guest Access:
You will have access to the entire property, including the canoe onsite. Guests have the flexibility to gain convenient access to our home via the keypad entry system any time after the designated check-in time on their scheduled arrival date.
Check-in Time - 5:00 PM
Check-out Time - 11:00 AM

The Neighborhood:
Swan Shores is just one of our getaways here in Michigan! In spring, enjoy the vibrant blooms and greenery. Summer brings fun on the water—boating, swimming, and soaking up the sun. Fall allows for scenic walks through the nearby Allegan State Game Area or our own hiking paths in the area. And of course, winter offers skiing, snowmobiling, ice skating, and snow-filled fun.
We’re 10-15 minutes from Crane’s Orchards and Dutch Farms - amazing pies and fruit picking. Fenn Valley Winery offers tastings and tours. Antique lovers, the area has a treasure trove of stores in South Haven, Allegan, Douglas, and Saugatuck. Summer brings dune rides, South Haven & Saugatuck's beautiful beaches, biking trails, and fruit galore: cherries, blueberries, raspberries, and peaches.
Note: We aim to maintain a peaceful environment for all our guests and neighbors. Large, disruptive parties are not allowed.

Getting Around:
To explore all the amazing spots in Southwest Michigan, you’ll definitely need a car! We are conveniently located to coastal towns—just 15 minutes from downtown South Haven, 20 minutes from Saugatuck, and 25 minutes from Holland.
Please note: We currently don’t offer electric vehicle (EV) charging on-site. Attempting to charge an EV here damages our electrical system, any violations will incur a $400.00 fee plus any repair costs. Thank you for helping us keep things running smoothly!

Other Things to Note:
Wi-Fi internet is provided by AT&T, but they only offer limited speeds best suited to web browsing & checking email. More than a few connected devices at a time will cause lag. We provide satellite TV & DVD players for all our homes since video streaming is not an option.
Loud parties with excessive alcohol/drug use are not allowed. All drinking games are prohibited. Township-mandated quiet hours are from 10 PM-8 AM daily. We ask that nothing be stuck to our walls since this will damage the paint. You may not use tinsel, glitter, confetti, feathers, etc. during your stay since these leave a mess that is hard & time-consuming for our small staff to clean up.
No EV charging, smoking, fireworks, vaping, marijuana use, or pets/animals. No exceptions.
Note: Docks, Watercraft, Grill & Outdoor Dining Furniture Are Not Available Oct 25-Apr 15. This home closes for the winter after New Year's Eve until April 1.

Family Weekend.

Plenty of room, so nice to have so many bathrooms. The game room is awesome. Kitchen is plenty big. So nice to have a large table, it was perfect for our group. It is a bit noisy, everything echos to the other side of the house. Your range may need to be addressed. When we used it, it took 3 times longer to get done than normal. But it was fine. The kitchen drawers were not very clean, a lot of crumbs ect. Also, your cookie sheets were dirty. We definitely had a great time, the beds were very comfortable! Thank you!

Annual ladies retreat

Our group of 8 ladies thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at Swan Shores. The house was extremely clean and welcoming, nothing was amiss. The yard was freshly mowed and had periodic pickup of lake geese poo. The lake itself is lovely and very quiet. The local town of Pullman appears to have fallen on hard times and there is nothing of interest to see there; however, it was only 20 minutes to Saugatuck and South Haven for day trip adventures. We plan to come back next year!

Our party of 7 stayed here and it was a perfect base for our trip. We loved the games room and it was well used. The property was very clean and well equipped. The location on the lake was beautiful - we’d love to come back and fully utilize the outdoor space when the weather is warmer.

Swan Shores was the perfect property for our mini family vacation. We had 6 adults and 7 kids and there was more than enough space for all of us! The home was very clean and kept up very well. Elizabeth was wonderful to work with and was always quick with a response. We had such a good time that we are already planning another (longer) visit. I highly recommend Swan Shores!

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth Kosten

Host profile image
I was raised in southwest Michigan, in the Grand Rapids area, and I have always reveled in the natural beauty to be found here in our Great Lakes State. I just love being near the water, so any chance I get to be near a lake is a perfect opportunity for me to relax and unwind. I hope you get to know our beautiful state when you stay with us, because to know it is to love it!

Why they chose this property

I was immediately drawn by the natural beauty of the lake and its environs — not to mention the extensive outdoor activities and peaceful surroundings. Since then, I have made it a priority to spend as many summer weekends in the area as I can.

What makes this property unique

This home was conceived and built specifically to cater to large groups and families who want to escape the mad rush of daily life and spend time growing closer to one another while experiencing all the tranquility and enjoyment that "life on the lake" has to offer. We have worked to provide a balance of comfort, functionality, charm, unity, and fun throughout our home and grounds. We even designed our outdoor spaces to provide maximum opportunities for gathering together to enjoy good meals and good conversation. We sincerely hope that the breathtaking lake views from the great room and lake-facing deck will inspire and astound you as much as they do us. We love creating welcoming spaces that draw you in with their charmingly-decorated rooms designed with great care, and our greatest desire is to see you return year after year so you can continually create memorable moments with those you love.
