About this property

Cozy cabin w lake view. Booking now for summer. Pets ok! Pontoon available.

Plan your getaway to this cozy cabin located on a peninsula with a 180 degree view of beautiful Maple Lake. Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend, a fall trip for apple picking and visits to pumpkin farms, a cozy winter getaway or fun filled summer vacation, Maple Leaf Cabin is your lakeside retreat! Book now for Summer 2025. Full weeks only, Friday to Friday, during July and August. Discount for long-term stays in the off-season. Pontoon boat available April-October. Well-behaved pets are welcome.

Maple Lake is a 172 acre, mile long all sports lake just 2 hours from both Chicago and Detroit, with easy access from I-94.

Maple Leaf Cabin features a bedroom with full sized bed with 100% cotton sheets and quilt. The cabin also has an indoor dining area, modern kitchen and bath, and washer/dryer for laundry. The cabin features a huge screened porch with floor to ceiling views of the lake. Enjoy meals from the large square picnic table, take afternoon naps, play board games or read by lamplight.
The cabin also has wonderful outdoor space, with a deck, fire pit, picnic table and plenty of adirondack chairs to relax and enjoy the view of the lake while sipping morning coffee or sampling a glass of local wine.



Dine out in local restaurants and pubs or create your own feast from local farmstands and (if you're lucky) your own catch of the day! Fish off the seawall or paddle the lake in our canoe. Or cruise the lake on Miss Maple, our pontoon boat--great for fishing, basking in the sun or sipping cocktails at sunset (extra charge applies). Hunt for antiques, stroll a few blocks for ice cream or a movie in Paw Paw's vintage theatre or visit a u-pick farm or local winery. Check out the microbrews at the Paw Paw Brewing Co.--don't forget to bring the growler from the cabin for a refill. Or relax and do nothing...It's always great to get away to Maple Leaf Cabin--and don't forget your pets!

Beautiful lakeside house

Perfect spot
We had a really nice time staying at this property. Sean was an Excellent host! The “Miss Maple” boat was fun for some nice cruises around the lake. My dogs are pretty upset about having to leave. When we come back, you can bet this will be our 1st choice.

Little cabin with the best view
This little cabin is so cozy (comfy for two), but the best part is the big screened porch overlooking the length of Maple Lake...and the use of Miss Maple, the pontoon boat. We had a relaxing stay and great visit with nearby family.

More than we expected
The listing for this property looked really good, and we were pleasantly surprised it exceeded our expectations. Our first impression it was clean and welcoming... as we found our way around we really appreciated all the various living spaces and amenities - the screen porch, the fire pit, the grilling station, the kitchen, bed, and bathroom - all were nice, tastefully done, and well-supplied. My wife's comment was "this will be hard to beat"!

Cant wait to come back next year
I've been 2x already, and can't wait to come back next year. The view of the lake is as peaceful a place on earth as I've been in many years. Plan to do nothing, and be pleasantly surprised. Napping on the screen porch with the breeze, watching the sunrise from a beautiful red glow at first, to full morning sun over the lake, it is all magnificently tranquil.

Absolutely wonderful!
We stayed at the Maple Lake cottage for a week in July, and we had a wonderful week. The little cottage is immaculate, and the view of the lake is breathtaking. We spent the majority of our time sitting on the screened in porch just relaxing with a drink. We brought our little 13-year-old peek-a-poo, and we put her bed by the door in the screened-in porch, and she was totally content the whole week. We grilled, fished off the fish wall, and, of course, made several trips to St. Julian's where we are wine club members. It rained one afternoon, so we took a trip into South Haven.....our favorite little lake town. We rented Miss Maple for the week, but unfortunately, she broke down after only being able to use her for a day. Shawn was fantastic to communicate with, and she quickly refunded our money and reached out to her mechanic to come and take Miss Maple to the shop. We don't hesitate in recommending this sweet little cottage to others and can't wait to return again some day. Thank you, Shawn!

The best view on the lake. Cozy cottage with a great fire pit overlooking Maple Lake. We used the pontoon several times. Paw Paw is a nice town with some excellent restaurants. ( Ate at the Taphouse twice) We were entertained with music at the local band shell. Less than an hour to Saugatuck where we went on a dune buggy ride. Lots of fun.

Million and a half dollar views
I couldnt figure out how one small cottage at the lake could get so many excellent reviews. Until we stayed there. The views thru the giant screen porch sliding door, are unobstructed by any beams or uprights. Just the beautiful lake...and fish jumping, birds chirping. Everything you might need, except your smile and a swimsuit, is right there- and a movie, or a choice of nice eats, are within walking distance, and groceries are 2 minute drive. Heaven actually does exist, but you need to go the Maple Lake house, to see for yourself. You would need to try, to have a bad time at Shawns place. Cant wait to go back.

Quaint Cottage
Small but adequate for two adults. Very clean, tastefully decorated with a rustic, cottage flair. Host had more than ample supplies of paper products, linens, wood for fire pit if you choose to use it. Breathtaking views from the screened in porch. Porch had great rockers and a futon. Bring you fishing pole if you like bass. Man caught 4 lb bass off in boat a few yards from the doc. Tuesday night LaCantina had 6.00 spaghetti special- magnificent! All in all a very relaxing experience.

Best Views of Maple Lake
Maple Cottage is not only absolutely adorable, but we feel it has the most gorgeous views on Maple Lake. We were truly wowed! Each morning we would awake to the mist rising off the lake and a little old man puttering around the lake in his fishing boat. The cottage was very well equipped. It had a washer and dryer, dishwasher, great kitchen layout, a window air conditioner in the living area, an occilating fan, and heating. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom, and in the kitchen you will find a big refrigerator, toaster and coffee maker. Most of all -- a flat screen TV (not streaming, but live TV) and INTERNET! What blew us away is the decor inside and outside of the cottage. There are antiques and vintage items everywhere. We LOVED the huge screened porch with a picnic table that seats 8, a futon and rocking chairs. Parking accommodations were great. The property itself is awesome -- a deck with grill, a fire pit with lots of seating, a dock with a pontoon boat and canoe, solar outdoor lighting, another seating area adjacent to the dock. The decor will blow you away, inside and outside. The flowers everywhere outdoors were so lovely. We could not get over all of the vintage treasures and antiques in the themes of maple leaves, ducks and fishing. There are even beach towels with the boat's name, Miss Maple, embroidered on them. Maple Cottage is a great getaway, only a couple of blocks from downtown Paw Paw. Highly recommended!!!!

True escape by the lake
We just had one of the best, most relaxing vacations ever! The house is small but has everything you need. The screened in porch is awesome, the view is unreal. Saw herons, an osprey, and a bald Eagle while on the lake! Wineries and a brewery only blocks away. Fantastic water pressure in the shower and a nice Weber grill (what a great touch). Just great!

Nature lover paradise, dog friendly!
The place was absolutely amazing! Everything matched perfectly! Clean, hot water, good shower, very small bed. You only need to bring your toiletries, clothes and food. I loved having the vacuum, washer/dryer, dishwasher, cleaning supplies, herb garden, pontoon and screened in porch was awesome! Nothing but beautiful nature, peace and happiness! ...if you can't do stairs, it's not a good option, we carried our 80# dog because he's elderly and can't use the stairs to get to the boat and dock, but otherwise it was perfect for everyone. I can't wait to return. The sofa bed is very uncomfortable though and the bed in the bedroom is comfortable, yet very small. The futon on the porch is nice!

The screened in porch was a great place to relax. The cabin has a wonderful view of the lake. We took the pontoon boat (Miss Maple) out several times. There was a town wide festival going on. We went to the Old Car Show. We saw fireworks right out the back door of the cabin. We sat by the fire pit a couple of evenings and soaked in the view. We had a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Shawn

Host profile image
We love getting away and enjoying time at the cabin. We like to relax on the porch, sip wine while taking Miss Maple on a spin around the lake, then throw some steaks on the grill. When we're not antiquing or gardening, we play with our chocolate lab Riptide--he loves to swim and fetch toys from the lake. Come visit the cabin--you and your dog will love it too!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the view of the lake--within five minutes of arriving we decided to buy it. We live in Chicago and can leave the City after work on Friday and still arrive in time to open a bottle of wine and fire up the grill--it's a great antidote to city life.

What makes this property unique

We love to relax at Maple Leaf Cabin, whether reading on the screened porch, drinking coffee overlooking the lake or cocktails on the pontoon boat, Miss Maple, it's always a great getaway. The cabin is fully outfitted and Paw Paw has everything we need so it's not necessary to bring alot of stuff--just hop in the car and go. We love visiting the farmstands and farmers' markets for local produce but if we don't feel like cooking there are many good restaurants, from casual to fine dining, where we can grab a great country breakfast or enjoy a relaxing dinner right on the water. And there are always new wines to taste at the wineries--just a few short blocks away!
