About this property

Eagle Lake Kalamazoo, Mattawan - Lake Livin'

Welcome to beautiful Eagle Lake in Kalamazoo, MI! This lake is a roughly 300 acre - wake lake with public boat access, multiple sandbars, refreshing water, and tons of fun!

This home is 2,000 sf and sits on 40 ft of lake frontage. The home has an open floor plan designed to accommodate 8 comfortably. The main floor opens into the kitchen and living room with views of the lake.
The kitchen has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, barware, utensils etc. There is also a laundry room and half bath on the main floor. The living room has a couch and two oversized chairs as well as a flat panel smart TV and fireplace.

Upstairs includes the master bedroom (queen bed), an outside deck with lake views, and a new, beautiful master bath. The master bedroom has a flat panel smart TV as well.

In addition to the master, there are three additional bedrooms (2 queen bedrooms and one bunk bedroom). A pack n' play is available if needed. Linens, blankets, towels, and pillows are supplied. There is free wifi and cable.

There is a gas grill on the patio. There is also have a half-acre of green-space behind the garage that has a swing-set and fire pit.

This home has a large driveway that can fit 6 cars with additional parking on the back property. There is also a basketball hoop, yard games, water toys, and flotation rafts. There are 2 adult kayaks, 2 kid kayaks/paddle boards, and 2 adult paddleboard. This lake is public so you may bring a boat and dock it at the house. Perfect place for boating, swimming, kayaking, fishing, and RELAXING.

The yard and landscape are new in 2021, new concrete patio, fire pit, furniture etc. In 2018-2020, Eagle Lake had record rainfall and flooded. We had to install a seawall which protects the property. The seawall stands about 2 ft higher than the yard (in the future we will cut the wall down) however until there is a long-term water solution the wall is a great asset to our property.

Once you are on the dock, the water at the shoreline is around 2 ft deep. It is a sandy bottom. At the end of the dock, it is roughly 5-6ft deep. The dock has a ladder. There is also a swimming raft that is anchored about 20 feet from the dock.

Lastly, a pontoon boat is available to rent if need be. $150 per day or $650 for the week.

During the winter months, the dock and the outside furniture are put in storage. Upon request and weather-dependent, we can provide the outside propane firepit. There is also a burn pit on the back property for wood fires.

The home is about 5 miles away from Texas Corners which has shopping, restaurants/bars, bike trails and a farmers market.
45 minutes away from Lake Michigan. 2 hours from Chicago.

We had a great stay at this lakeside property. The neighborhood was great, location is close to all things Kalamazoo. The house accommodations were great along with the lake amenities provided (Kayaks, Fishing gear, boat dock). The kids were able to use the bicycles provided along with a adult bike. Special thanks to Megan for providing the jungle gym and small trampoline. 5 Star Time Rick C

Great House in Great Location
We stayed here to prepare for our son's wedding. We live out of town so we needed a place to work on final preparations. We also stayed a few days after the wedding to rest and relax. This was the perfect place for us! There was space to work and for everyone to be comfortable. Becky was a great host, very responsive and very nice!

Kid-friendly, all we could have hoped!
A marvelous venue for an extended family week with small children. This home was by far the best equipped one I have ever stayed in with a thoughtfully, generously and fully stocked kitchen and lots of toys, books and entertainment particularly for the elementary and under set. Lots of opportunity for water play, too, with several human powered watercraft and flotation toys. This home is an easy one to recommend.
