Modern Farmhouse w/Pool & Hot Tub, Surrounded by Nature - 5 minutes to beach!

Dogwood is a charming rental property with heated swimming pool nestled within the woodlands near Lake Michigan in SW Michigan’s Harbor Country, just 70 miles from Chicago.

**Ask us about promotional pricing for off-season stays longer than 2 nights from November through April (holidays excluded).**

With a main house and detached guest house totaling 3,500 square feet of living space plus an expansive backyard with heated swimming pool & hot tub surrounded by forest, Dogwood is well-suited to large groups who want to disconnect a bit and experience the serenity of the natural world.

The main house’s communal space is anchored by a generously-sized living room with a wood-burning fireplace, home theater system, and multiple seating areas. Equipped with updated appliances, the beautifully remodeled kitchen connects to a large picturesque dining area surrounded by glass. The main house includes 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms on the second & third floors.

Located a few steps away, the cozy guest house provides an additional 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, plus a living room & eat-in kitchenette area.

Dogwood’s 1,800 square foot outdoor area includes a large heated swimming pool, wrap-around wood deck, hot tub, outdoor dining area with gas grill, outdoor ping-pong table, and fire pit. The property’s large backyard on the 2-acre lot creates an idyllic backdrop for outdoor activities of all kinds.

Dogwood’s slightly-off-the-beaten-path location is moments away from several nature preserves that are perfect for nature walks. Don’t miss the magnificent old-growth forest at Warren Woods State Park! It is a short drive to the pristine beaches of Lake Michigan, downtown Three Oaks, and the beach communities along Red Arrow Highway including Union Pier and New Buffalo.

Family Vacay
What a beautiful modern farmhouse! Dogwood was perfectly suited for our family of 14 adults and 4 little ones. We LOVED spending our days in the warm saltwater pool, evenings around the campfire, and everyone slept great in the very comfortable beds! The entire home and property was IMMACULATE and set up so beautifully upon arrival - every room smelled fresh and clean and there were plenty of towels, pillows, blankets, and the kitchen had everything you needed. (We did bring our own electric griddle which we wanted for pancakes, and they didn’t have one) Jorge was very easy to communicate with when we had questions and he sent the maintenance crew over promptly to address a small issue we had. There were smiles on our faces the entire week-we couldn’t have been happier with our stay!

This property ticked all of our boxes!
We have been renting Lake Michigan properties for nearly 10 years now. As our family has grown, so have our vacation needs. This property fills the bill! The pool is fabulous. Warm water and a perfect ledge for little ones. The outdoor space is equally great. We have young grandkids who played baseball, soccer, red rover, and tag for hours! The house is beautifully appointed and so clean. The table for 18 in the sunroom was a cherry on top! Also Dwell Vacations was the least intrusive, yet thorough management company we’ve worked with!

It was a great spot for our group of friends to stay together with our families. Between the pool and the lawn area, there were plenty of things to keep all ages busy. The fire pit surrounded by a canopy of trees was perfect for winding down at the end of the night.

What a relaxing retreat!
What a beautiful property and layout ! Having a saltwater pool was so wonderful even our dog enjoyed it. Everything was as described in the listing. If you have a large group, especially a bunch of young families, this would be ideal. Plenty of beds ! For us having a two bedroom pool house was perfect for my in-laws. They had their own private space all on one level. Penny from Dwell management was very responsive. I can't say enough about that !!! so easy to work with.

Better than expectations!
We arrived right after a snow storm had gone through and the lot was well plowed and ready for us. Upon entering the house, it was most pleasant and inviting. A beautiful Christmas tree greeted us, the table fully set beautifully for sixteen. Anything we would want was available, it stayed warm for us, decorating was simple and beautifully done. We spent most of the time with activities around the huge table, from the two year old to the 81 year old. Many memories were made and we couldn't help but think it would be a great spot during warmer months. We would definitely return for another family stay.

Beautifully appointed. The kitchen had everything you'd need, lots of dining, living and sleeping space. The deck, outside eating area, firepit, and hot tub were a hit. Walking distance to hike in the state park, minutes to area activities. Communication and support from the owner was excellent. Highly recommend!

Great Family Stay
What a spacious house and beautiful property. We had plenty of room for our group of 9 across the two different houses. We loved the hot tub, enjoyed the outdoor firepit and had multiple meals gazing out across the trees changing for Fall. You do need a car to get around and uber isn't very active in the area so some pre planning is helpful. The host was very responsive and gave us plenty of suggestions for how to get around. Would stay here again especially with the new pool they are installing.

Our Thoughts on the Family Vacation
Very family friendly, well prepared for a large group: space, cooking equipment, towels, ample space to set and visit, enjoy the hot tub. A well prepared guest book helped to know what was in the area and things to do. Lots of other places to visit: Warren Dunes State Park - swimming, breweries, distillery, parks. Only issue was the yard, slightly torn up, tall grass and weeds, a dug-up hole - caused a need to limit the play area of children and adults doing frisby practice.

Reunion House!!
We found this gem when our previous rental property fell through a week before our trip. The house was big enough to accommodate our group of 24. We especially loved the large dining room table, the porch and seating outside, and the backyard. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with EVERYTHING you could ever need. We all really enjoyed our stay at this house.

Rented this for my Corporate Leadership Team off-site. It worked out great! The house is set up perfectly for large groups. The kitchen is extremely well appointed and perfect for cooking!! The only downside was the attic bedrooms were hard to keep cool, but it was crazy hot. Overall, loved the house and highly recommend it!!
