Waterfront vacation rentals in Calhoun County

I needed help one time and got a response very quickly. The space was quiet and clean. My daughter and I felt safe there.

Thanks Matt we are enjoyed staying at your place twice

Brittany and Joe are the best hosts! Extremely nice, thoughtful, and had excellent communication. The property has everything you need and is very clean. The view of the river was beautiful especially during snowfall. Access to Battle Creek was super easy and we had no trouble making it to Kellogg Arena in under 30 mins. There are plenty of nearby stores, we did Walmart pickup for groceries and two close Dollar General locations. There is also Pizza Hut for delivery and a variety of typical fast food options. I’m so thankful we found Thornapple River Retreat for our trip for this year’s Winter Classic Invitational gymnastics meet.

We were in town for my Mothers funeral. We originally were staying at another Airbnb that wasn't able to extend our reservation. Rachel not only confirmed our new reservation within minutes, but also allowed us to go straight from check out at the other place to check in at her place without waiting around for several hours. She was also extremely helpful when we had an emergent situation with our dog, Dexter. The house is absolutely beautiful and even though you're only a few minutes outside of town it feels super secluded and private. Wonderful host, wonderful house.

Had a fantastic stay! The private hot tub and sauna were definitely the highlights for me! The outdoor area even has a koi pond that provides such a relaxing touch. The bed was incredibly cozy! The property had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. I’d love to come back with the kiddos for a longer stay and to enjoy some lake activities. Highly recommend!

We stayed during the off season but I have to imagine this place is amazing during the summer. We had a great time. Beautiful view of the lake.

Exactly as described, clean and quaint. Beautiful neighborhood, close to Hillsdale. Our stay was perfect for a quick weekend. No TV. Not a big deal for us but for some it might be. Try to arrive in the light as the roads are dark and if you are not familiar with the area, it can be hard to find. Owner instructions helped.

Beautiful location, unfortunately it was dark and raining when we arrived but it was still beautiful and comfortable. We would love to visit again someday

This house was wonderful for myself, my parents, my 2 brothers, sister in law, and 2 nieces! The pool was in use from sun up to sun down. Plenty of space to spread out and relax. My mom was able to navigate between her wheelchair and walker, which meant all the world. I have stayed in many airbnbs. What sets this one apart, besides the gorgeous house, pool, and amenities, was the way everything was stocked. There were enough extra towels for all the in and outs of the pool. Anyone who has stayed at an airbnb with a pool can relate to not enough towels. Not the case here!! Also, plenty of extra toilet paper. And the good tp! How many times have I had to stop during my vacation to buy extra TP. Not at this house! It had everything I needed!! Including washing machine tabs, so I could keep up with the laundry. Tons of extra plates, silverware, cups! EXCELLENT communication from Mary. I am sure our family will be back to this Oasis!

This was a fun & relaxing vacation for us, our kids and the grandkids. We really never left the place except to take the boat out. The kids and grandkids had a blast in the water and the shallow water was perfect for the young ones - they especially liked the water trampoline! The house is very spacious so we never felt crowded and my daughter was able to ‘work from home’ there utilizing the desk upstairs and the picnic table on the deck one day. The kitchen offered us everything we needed for food preparation so we didn’t have to go out to eat. We would recommend Karen’s place to others.

Scott was an amazing host. I booked a month before my stay and Scott communicated with me several times during the month. The place was great for a family celebration. It was very well stocked with everything we needed. I would highly recommend this rental. We can't wait to visit again. Thank you so much, Scott!

This beautiful old house is a gem - it's as comfortable as your favorite pair of jeans. And the lakefront is just so special - clean, well kept, and inviting. We have been going for over 10 years and love it today as much as the first time we visited.

Perfect place. Samantha's place is now our favorite in the Kalamazoo area. Very well kept. View of lake is fantastic. I did have a problem with the door lock, but Samantha responded quick and gave us a new code.

Jacob's place was spotless and right on the water. It worked perfectly for a guys ice fishing weekend. Jacob was very responsive and the house was exactly as described. Will be looking forward to booking this house many years to come for an annual tradition.

The house is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. I had a pleasant stay. Thank you for your hospitality.

Wife writing review!!… I read the reviews before booking a place and everyone was spot on! Dylan’s place is sooo nice! Comfy beds and great shower with great water pressure are my top priorities and Dylan’s place delivers. In addition, the kitchen and bathroom are stocked with extras that I just found very considerate and thoughtful. The fenced in backyard made it a great play area for our pup. Lots of fun games out there for the humans to enjoy as well! I loved watching the sunrise in the backyard and the sunset over the lake in the front. Large beautiful windows showcase the stunning lake view across the street which was my favorite. The house is on a fairly busy street. The noise wasn’t a problem for us. It could be an issue for really sensitive sleepers. Overall, we had a great time. We will definitely add this one to our list!! Thanks Dylan!
