SWMI Lake House Rentals: two big-group stays where cabin life meets pure lake time. Now taking direct bookings through RentMichiganCabins.com.

If your crew is itching for wide-open water, bonfires, and easy access to the best of Southwest Michigan, SWMI Lake House Rentals has two standouts Cabintimers should know about. One sits on a private lake with 350 feet of shoreline plus a seasonal hot tub and optional pontoon rental. The other is set on a popular all-sports lake with sandy frontage, a shallow swim area for kids, and room for the whole family (pets welcome!)

Sweet Lake: private-lake seclusion + seasonal hot tub

This seven-bedroom, three-bath home sleeps up to 20 and spreads out along a quiet, private lake—perfect for paddles at sunrise and s’mores by the firepit after dark. You’ll find a full kitchen, Wi-Fi, A/C, and the kind of indoor/outdoor spaces that make multi-family trips smooth. At the shoreline: a dock, kayaks, and paddle boards; add a pontoon to your stay if you want lazy cruises at golden hour. The hot tub is available October through April, so winter weekends feel extra cozy.

Planning day trips? This corner of SWMI puts you within an easy drive of Lake Michigan beaches and artsy Saugatuck, with ski days at Bittersweet and Timber Ridge when the snow flies.

Saddle Lake: all-sports action for big groups (and dogs)

Bring the cousins, the cards, and the cooler—this five-bedroom, three-bath home offers over 4,000 finished square feet and sleeps up to 20. It sits on Saddle Lake, an all-sports spot loved for sandy bottom and kid-friendly, shallow swimming. Pets are allowed here, so four-legged family members can join the fun.

Saddle Lake itself spans roughly 300 acres in Van Buren County, giving your crew plenty of room for fishing, tubing, and exploring by kayak. Nearby towns like Grand Junction, Bloomingdale, and Bangor make stocking up easy, while South Haven’s lighthouse and beaches are a scenic cruise away. (Fishermap USA)

Make it a Southwest Michigan getaway, four seasons strong

  • Beach days & sunsets: South Haven’s lighthouse pier is a must for photos and evening strolls.
  • Bike and hike: The 34-mile Kal-Haven Trail State Park links South Haven to Kalamazoo under a leafy canopy—great for family rides and wildflower spotting.
  • Winter turns: Bittersweet Resort adds snowboarding and skiing to your weekend—easy to reach from either home.
Why book direct.

Why Cabintimers book direct here

Skip the middleman. When you book directly with the owner/local manager, you avoid service fees and get the inside scoop on lake toys, boat rentals, and seasonal availability (like hot-tub months). Locals know which sandbars are quiet, where the walleye are hitting, and the best blueberry donuts on Saturday mornings—that’s the stuff that turns a trip into a memory.

Ready to start planning? Check availability and connect with the owner on the SWMI Lake House Rentals listings—then pack the marshmallows and the fishing nets.

Hayward, WI: Big-Lake Stays for Big Memories—Majestic Escapes on Lac Courte Oreilles. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2012!

Hayward’s lake country is made for Cabintimers who travel as a pack. Think sand-between-the-toes mornings, long dockside afternoons, and big family dinners where the kitchen actually has room for the whole crew. Majestic Escapes in Hayward, Wisconsin delivers the space and the shoreline to match.

Why Majestic Escapes belongs on your shortlist

These are true lake houses with elbow room. Waterfront. Sand frontage. Space to gather without stepping on each other’s flip-flops. Cabintimers planning reunions, multi-family trips, retreats, or milestone celebrations will find lodging scaled for 20–30+ guests with private bedrooms, multiple common areas, and the creature comforts that make a week on the lake smooth.

The headliner: The Old Chicago Club on Lac Courte Oreilles

This historic Northwoods estate sits on more than 300 feet of level, sandy shoreline on Lac Courte Oreilles (one of Wisconsin’s largest, clearest lakes). Inside you’ll find 14 bedrooms plus one extra bunk space, 8 bathrooms, and over 10,000 square feet, including three fireplaces and a three-season room right by the water. The kitchen is a crowd-pleaser with multiple sinks, ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, and a commercial coffee maker—breakfast for 30 doesn’t have to be chaos. Outdoors, the beach is steps from the porch, perfect for sandcastle engineers and sunset watchers alike.

What Cabintimers do in Hayward (besides the lake)

Ride singletrack: CAMBA maintains hundreds of miles of mountain bike trails—flowy, forested, grin-worthy. Bring bikes for all ages.

Ski, hike, and run the Birkie Trail: The legendary American Birkebeiner trail system doubles as an all-seasons playground. Miles of gliding in winter. Miles of wandering in summer.

Roam the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest: 850,000 acres of pines, lakes, and wildlife. Pack a picnic and go get lost (the good kind).

Cast for trophies: Lac Courte Oreilles and nearby lakes serve up musky, walleye, bass, perch, and panfish. Book a local guide for that first-light bite.

Go full Northwoods: Check out the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame, the World Lumberjack Championships, mini-golf and go-carts for the kids, and a lineup of local events that keep summer buzzing. When hunger hits, Hayward favorites like Angry Minnow Brewpub, Coops Pizza, and The Fireside are crowd-tested.

Play a round (or several): Hayward is known for its collection of quality golf courses—most within a short drive of the lake.

Trip planning tips

  • Summer stays often run weekly; book early for June–August.
  • Bring beach and bath towels, and your go-to spices and condiments.
  • Ask about boat and PWC rentals nearby. Marinas around Lac Courte Oreilles can set you up for tubing, cruising, or a quiet sunrise paddle.
  • Traveling with grandparents or toddlers? The level sand frontage and multiple living areas make together-time easier.

Why book direct with Majestic Escapes

Skip the third-party fees and talk with the local team that knows which cove catches the calmest evening water. You’ll get dates, rates, and answers faster—plus tips that only locals share.
