Juniper Presents: Forest Escape, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Near the Dunes

Summary:

Minutes from Warren Dunes State Park, La Maison du Lac brings modern architecture into a deeply wooded setting. Inside, the vaulted living room and wood-burning hearth offer a quiet center to the home. A cozy lower-level rec room adds a great rainy-day retreat. Outdoors, a screened porch, large deck with BBQ, and secluded hot tub create space to unwind in the open air. It's a transformative escape that's uniquely Sawyer.



The Space:

Step into the heart of the home, a soaring, light-filled great room designed for gathering and grounding. Layered with plush textures, bold accents, and a striking stone fireplace, this open-concept space invites deep conversations and cozy nights in. A sleek, modern kitchen and farmhouse-style dining table make shared meals easy and elegant, while glass doors open wide to a serene forest-view deck.



Each bedroom at La Maison du Lac is a restful escape, designed with natural tones, crisp linens, and serene woodland views. Whether you're winding down after a day at the lake or curling up with a book, these inviting sleep spaces promise deep rest and dreamy mornings.



MAIN LEVEL

Primary Bedroom: King Bed



UPPER LEVEL

Bedroom 2: King Bed

Bedroom 3: 3 Twin Beds and 1 Trundle



The bathrooms are a refreshing mix of playful and polished, featuring gold-accented fixtures, modern vanities, and creative pops of color. Fresh tilework and curated decor make these spaces as photogenic as they are practical. Downstairs, you’ll also find a full-size washer and dryer set tucked into the lower level, perfect for keeping swimsuits clean and weekend gear ready for more adventure.



When the weather rolls in, the lower-level recreation room earns its keep. A large sectional, armchair, TV, and a shelf stocked with books and games make it an easy place to lose an afternoon without ever needing to leave the house.



Step outside and discover your own woodland haven. Dine al fresco in the airy screened porch, lounge beneath a fire-red umbrella on the deck, or fire up the BBQ grill for sunset cookouts. A bubbling hot tub sits under the trees, ready for evening soaks, while the stone fire pit, surrounded by stump and Adirondack seating, invites stories and s’mores under the stars. Nature wraps around you, private, peaceful, and perfectly designed for unwinding.



Discover the best of Harbor Country just minutes away enjoy wine tasting at local vineyards, brewery hopping, and farm-to-table dining; explore art galleries, antique shops, and weekend farmers markets; spend sunny days beachcombing, swimming, or watching sunsets along Lake Michigan; bike or hike scenic trails through dunes and forests; take a chartered boat cruise, go kayaking or paddleboarding, or try your hand at fishing; play a round at nearby golf courses or enjoy family fun at local ice cream stands, arcades, and miniature golf; and don’t miss the live music, seasonal festivals, and charming towns like New Buffalo, Three Oaks, and Sawyer, all brimming with small-town character and lakeside charm.

Highly recommend this host and property which is in a fantastic location near Warren Dunes State Park and countless restaurants within a 15 min radius. Clear description helped us know what to pack, easy digital check-in process to access the house. Well appointed rental with quality linens and towels. We had everything we needed for cooking, trips to the beach and family game night. Loved the large hot tub and screen porch. Great vacation thanks to Juniper Holiday!

La Maison du Lac was quite the find! It's tucked among the trees in a peaceful and quiet residential area close to the Dunes, the beach, golf and mini golf. And it's within walking distance to our favorite meat market (Falatics)! We aren't a hot tub family, but we grilled and chillaxed on the deck almost every night and played monopoly in the screened-in porch while our pup napped. The home has charming decor and there were lots of nice touches throughout. The kitchen is well stocked, the beds are comfy and there are plenty of soft towels! And Juniper was a dream to work with! The contacted us to let us know that the house was ready 45 minutes early and then regularly checked in with us to make sure we were happy! I definitly felt that if I needed assistance, in any way, I would be able to reach someone promptly. They also offer all sorts of conceirge services such as hiring a Chef which we didn't take advantage of during this trip. Oh, and they also left us lovely welcome treats (coffee and cookies)! As we were leaving, my husband asked me how soon can we book the house for next year! :)
