This is the income-producing lakeshore STR investors wait for.
Located in the highly desirable corridor between Saugatuck and South Haven, this turnkey 3-bedroom retreat generated $64,000 in 2025 and offers the ideal combination of proven performance, prime positioning, and long-term upside.
Guests are drawn to the peaceful ravine and wooded setting, just minutes from Glenn Beach and Casco Nature Preserve. The expansive deck, hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor recreation space deliver the experiential stays today's renters actively seek, while the cozy fireplace extends appeal into the shoulder seasons. Laundry in the basement adds convenience for extended bookings.
A significant future advantage: the planned Blue Star Trail expansion is slated to run directly in front of the home, offering seamless bike access between Saugatuck and South Haven. This connectivity enhances guest appeal now while positioning the property well for long-term appreciation.
Whether expanding an investment portfolio or securing a second home that performs when you're not using it, this property offers flexibility, income, and location in one compelling package.
