Luxury 4 bed, 2.5 bath Gun Lake Waterfront Home w/paddleboards/kayaks, free wifi

If you are looking for a luxury stay year round, look no further. For your next trip, you will certainly enjoy this fully furnished luxury 4 bed 2.5 bath 1600 finished sq ft home on the West lagoon of 2640 acre all-sports Gun Lake!

This home was designed to let in lots of light, and features all of the modern things such as an open floor plan, super insulated walls and ceilings, high efficiency furnace, + AC, High speed Cable Internet Wi-Fi, LED lighting throughout, 16 ft high cathedral ceilings on the main floor, white luxury mocha glazed under-lit cabinetry throughout, Frigidaire Gallery smudge-free full size stainless steel kitchen appliances, all of the comforts of home like Belgian waffle maker, Pancake griddle, coffee maker, full set of cookware, pans, utensils, 4 flat screen TV's, etc.

In addition to being fully accessible on the main floor once in the house. There are two steps up to the front door or door in the garage, and no steps anywhere on the main floor. All hallways & doorways are 3 ft wide, and the main floor master suite has step-in shower. There is main floor laundry, plenty of parking, and lots of space to entertain friends in the yard and on the deck, boardwalk, and obviously out on the big water.

There are extra safety measures taken for fire protection including 2 hour fire rated exterior and interior walls. The house is sanitized between guests, and features easy to clean upgrades like granite counter tops, CoreTec Plus waterproof luxury Vinyl Plank flooring system in all areas of the home except for the carpeted bedrooms and stairway. There is ceramic tile in the master shower and deep soaker tub with tile shower in the 2nd floor bath.

For your extra comfort, enjoy the energy efficient doors and windows, 4 ceiling fans, main floor laundry complete with front end loading washer and dryer (so no need to wait around in a laundromat), king size bed in the master suite, king size beds in 2 of the rooms upstairs, and a bunk bed room which sleeps 4 and a pull out mattress that makes sleeping for 5 just in that room! So up to 6 adults allowed and no more than 11 people total. There is a TV in the living room, the master bedroom, and each of the upstairs bedrooms that has a king size bed has a smart TV as well. There is no TV in the bunk bed room as the kids will have more fun feeding & catching the abundant fish and turtles, as well as feeding the sparrows, ducks, geese, swans, etc :-)

There is a large deck, a fire pit area, plenty of life vests for everyone, 2 kayaks, 2 paddle boards, and of course this house is only 10 houses down from the open waters of Gun Lake so there is great fishing right off the brand new sea wall and boardwalk. We just added a stainless steel ladder to make it even easier to get in and out of kayaks. There are no waves here and it only takes a few minutes at no wake speed to get to the fast water. Boat rental facilities, a great grocery store, sit down restaurants, a gas station, a McDonald's, a public beach with playground and boat ramp are all within 2 miles!

For winter guests the ice is great for skating and ice fishing, just make sure it is solid and take all necessary precautions like wearing a provided life vest over your coat just to ensure safety. If you are planning to enjoy downhill skiing at one of the nearby ski resorts, just know that by car Bittersweet Resort is only 22 miles or 28 minutes away, and Timber Ridge is only 26 miles or 34 minutes away. As long as the nights are below freezing these resorts make their own snow and usually are open and everyone has a great time.

The property Location is 12960 Hazel Dr, Wayland MI 49348 if you want to see where it is on a map and if it doesn't show on this site anywhere else. This is often helpful to know for mapping and distance purposes when traveling :-)

No matter when your stay, just know the house is cleaned thoroughly and disinfected so this can be your safe hangout! All you need to bring are your food, personal items (toothbrushes, toothpaste, shaver, etc...we have everything like washcloths, body shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels), and of course you will want clothing. Then get ready to relax, have fun together and make memories! Book today!

We had an amazing stay at this property. Everything was seamless, from the booking to communicating with the host to the check-in and out. We got to use the kayaks and paddle boards, so fun! We even extended the stay last-minute without any delays from the host. Thanks for making the trip a wonderful experience. I highly recommend working with John.

Owner was great responsive to a problem we encountered. Place is as pictured with location and good amenities. The grandkids enjoyed the paddle boards and kyaks. I thought the price was a little high, but it was worth it when I saw how the grandkids enjoyed the place. It became the meeting place for family attending the wedding.I would highly recommend the place

Family Getaway
Our family had an amazing time at Gun Lake. We had both houses next to each other which made for a great week of visiting with family. Gun Lake is conveniently located between Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids where we have family, so we had several visits throughout the week. The property was clean and well maintained, and there is lots to do in the area.

John was fantastic at keeping us informed about the property! We had absolutely everything we could possibly need provided for us by the owners. Plenty of space for our family of 6 and could have added even more. Our family loved going out on the kayaks and paddle boards multiple times a day. Darling house. We really enjoyed our stay!

Perfect Family Getaway
We had a perfect family vacation! The home is beautiful and the layout was perfect for our family. The house was very clean when we checked in and all of the amenities were exactly as described. The first floor master suite was great for my father who is in a wheelchair. The kitchen was very nicely stocked so we were able to cook large meals with ease. We appreciated all of the beach towels and life jackets which allowed us to pack light. The kayaks and paddle boards were a fun extra touch and the ladder on the dock made it so easy for us to hop in and paddle away! We are looking forward to coming back next summer!

Gun Lake - unlocked, fully stocked, and a barrel of fun.
One of the best VRBOs we have visited. The property was clean and well maintained. It was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Instructions were very detailed and communication with the owner was super. Being on a lake access allowed for many opportunities to enjoy the lake. Also, the geographic location was great for day trips to the Air Zoo to the south, dune rides to the west, and Holland to the Northwest. What a gem, we hope to come back.

Convenient, accommodating and very clean
Having the rental be so close to everything and basically being on beautiful Gun Lake made the family trip so enjoyable. In addition, John the owner was very accomodating and very respondent to all our needs. The VRBO itself was beautifully decorated and very clean. Cute little treasures/games in the kitchen table was a nice touch. Thank you John for meeting all our expectations and helping us make memories for a lifetime.

Wedding gathering.
This is our second time staying at John's property, both times for local weddings. We are from Michigan but currently live in Oklahoma. Our 3 children and their spouses live in Georgia. The house is perfect for 4 couples to stay and spend time together. Other family in town for the wedding stopped by and there is plenty of room. The backyard being on the canal with a large deck and dock makes for good gathering and grilling space. We'll be back!

This was the second near my family and I stayed at John Cremer's beautiful lake house home in Shelbyville Michigan. Everything about our stay was excellent. The home is clean and has everything you would need. We enjoyed using the kayaks provided. John responded immediately to questions and was very thorough with instructions and information we may need. The beds were so comfy- we all slept really well. If you and your family are looking for a comfortable, clean and relaxing getaway, this is it.👍

Great Vacation Home
My husband and I along with our two adult sons and two granddaughters enjoyed this vacation home immensely. The kayaks and paddle boards were a big activity for everyone. It was so nice being on a channel of the lake. We didn't worry about our granddaughters using the kayak and paddle boards as long as they stayed in the channel. The house is equipped with everything you need. No need to buy dishing washing detergent, laundry detergent, soap, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. I had packed a lot of these items because in the past, some of the homes we rented had maybe a days worth of these items. Just pack your clothes and prepare to have fun. Also, loved that there were several restaurants within a few minutes of the house. We will definitely rent this home again.
