Perfect Getaway!

This home was impeccable upon our arrival. The location is amazing, and the view was beyond beautiful. This home was a peaceful getaway! The neighborhood is quiet, the home backs up onto the water for fishing, and the fire pit allowed us to relax and take in the view.

Visit to Saginaw Bay

The property offers a unique place on the mouth of the Kawkawlin River where it enters Saginaw Bay. We were able to moor out boat directly in front of the house, providing us with easy access to the river and the bay. The house is large, clean, quiet and comfortable. A great place for a beautiful vacation.

Family get together on the Lake

This property provides an excellent opportunity to bring your boat to a nice house where the Kawkawlin river meets Saginaw Bay. We caught many fish right from the deck of the house, including bass, bowfin, catfish, bluegill, perch, crappie, rock bass, and sheephead. Well worth the visit.
