Awesome house, awesome location, awesome owners!
We stayed for a family wedding at Journeymen. We were the very closest to the event than anyone else in our party. Power went out during the event for the whole village. The home owners actually bought flashlights and lanterns and placed them in the house for us so when we came home we could see where we were going. So thoughtful. House is great, so many amenities. Would recommend to anyone coming to Three Oaks for anything but especially something at Journeymen as we were closer than the wedding party.

July 4 holiday
Very nice place and very pleasant stay. The house was beautiful and the porch was very nice to use. It was right on the main street of town, so traffic noise was a bit much at times, but also very convenient to walk around downtown and enjoy the area.

The perfect Michigan getaway!
There were 13 of us- 8 adults and 5 children four years old and younger! And all family!!!! Two lucky parents, three sons, three daughters in law and their respective children! The house accommodated all of us very easily! Ron was very easy to reach and responsive when we needed to ask him a question. The house was clean, well kept, and the perfect location! We enjoyed walking to town, parks and driving short distances to the beach and blueberry picking.

Nice stay, very responsive hosts!
The property is just as described, clean and well maintained. The hosts were incredibly responsive, both to a question at check in and later when the wifi had an issue. My extended family does an annual trip to this general area in Michigan but we hadn't stayed in this specific town before. We really liked it - nice town but a bit more lowkey than other towns in a good way - and the house is in a great location in the town.

Great Weekend Getaway
We had a girls weekend at this house in Three Oaks and it was perfect. It is a beautiful old house that is brilliantly designed for groups. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the dining room, kitchen and deck were perfect for when the whole group wanted to gather. Plus, it is an easy walk to everything in town. The hosts were very responsive and we had a great weekend!

Wonderful stay at the Sycamore Guesthouse!
We spent five outstanding days in Three Oaks at the Sycamore Guesthouse in late June. The house is beautiful and well-appointed, and was extremely comfortable for our extended three-generation family of grandfather, daughters/son-in-laws, and granddaughters. It was terrific to have bathrooms (with outstanding showers!) adjacent to each bedroom, the kitchen was large and very functional, and we loved spending time on the large porch dining and relaxing. Communications with owner always very timely, helpful, and professional. We highly recommend this property. Three Oaks is a cute town and we enjoyed walking everywhere, renting bikes nearby, and within a 15 minute drive relaxing on beautiful Lake Michigan beaches.

Perfect location and set up for family gathering
Great place beautifully maintained. We were in town for a family wedding reception at Jorneyman's. Perfect location across the street. Great family gathering place in the kitchen and dining areas, perfect for reconnecting by playing cards or dining together. Everyone in our party loved the place with their own bedrooms and bathrooms.

About the host

Hosted by Ron Zarantenello

Host profile image
Ken and Ron opened the first B&B (Three Oaks Inn) in the Village of Three Oaks in 2011 and quickly identified a need for additional fine lodging within the downtown area of Three Oaks, Village. We brought in Ron's brother to partner with us to create the Sycamore Guesthouse, a luxury guesthouse. Ken grew up in the area and ran his parents retail store for a decade prior to opening Three Oaks Inn with Ron. Ken is also a licensed massage therapist and practices out of the Three Oaks Inn. Mario and Ron are local Real Estate Agents (each their 2nd career after leaving Illinois for Michigan.) They grew up in Chicago and visited the area since childhood. Originally drawn to the lakefront, Ron settled in Three Oaks and set upon his goals of opening a luxury B&B. He's never looked back and continues to grow their lodging business.

Why they chose this property

Each bedroom has a private bathroom (Total of 5+ bedrooms / 5-1/2 bathrooms) and we are just across the street from Journeyman Distillery. We run a tight ship and you'll find no other vacation rental as well maintained or with as many private bathrooms. We were approached by the owner back in 2015 who declared that if anyone in town could make something of the property, it was us. We embarked on a long journey and created a luxury property for singles, couples, families and groups where they can create their own memories that will last a lifetime.

What makes this property unique

A fully renovated 1880's Victorian home that combines the original architectural details of the building with modern/contemporary furnishings & appointments. Relaxed elegance with a bit of rustic chic for fun.
