Secluded Riverside Log Home in Southern Michigan

Please contact owners for pricing and information. Some discounts may be offered.
Experience country log home living at its best. Looking for that private, secluded “retreat” beside a rippling river. This home sleeps 8. There is an upstairs king with bath, two bedrooms (queen in one and single and full bed in another) with full bath on main floor, and full bed and single bed and bath on lower level. The master bedroom upstairs has river views, and one bedroom on main level has a queen bed. The bedroom with two full beds has view of river and glass door which opens onto the deck. Lower level has a double glass sliding door to River area. The dining area has a slider that opens to a full deck on the River.
You drive in a 1/4 mile drive across a wooden Bridge past old barns to the home.
This home is in the middle of 130 acres offering nature trails along the Prairie River. This seclusion offers an abundance of wildlife with common sightings of deer, wild turkey, herons, rabbits, squirrels, many species of birds, including hummingbirds. There are also occasional sittings of eagles, fox, mink, otters, etc. There is a large pond area near the drive into the property.
Easy to access; we are only 10 miles from the Indiana Toll Road, 2 1/2 hours from Chicago, 2 1/2 hours from Detroit, and just 30 minutes south of Kalamazoo MI.
The spring is a delightful time of year to watch the birth of a new season, on many occasions fawns can be seen wading in the river right out the cabin windows.
This peaceful riverfront three-story log home is on the edge of Amish Country. Take a drive through quaint Amish communities and shop at their many retail stores for food, flowers, baked goods and gifts.

Very nice and very understanding
It was supposed to be a gathering of siblings and spouses each traveling from a couple hours away. A getaway for seven turned into a fun weekend for four. One missed because of illness. Two missed because of a family death the day we were supposed to stay. Owners were very sympathetic and understanding of the situation. The four who stayed had a good time and we hope to book again for a more complete siblings weekend.

Another amazing weekend in Centreville Michigan!
This was our 3rd straight Fourth of July Holiday at this amazing cabin on the Prairie River. Our whole family had a wonderfully relaxing weekend playing in the river, sitting on the hugh deck, and sitting around a camp fire in the evenings. John was very accommodating and willing to change our dates for us. We will be back!

LaVille Ladies’ Weekend Away 2024
We were all very pleased with the property. The house was very accommodating for 5 adults! We enjoyed the deck and the porch for relaxing, the dining room table for eating and playing games, the kitchen for meal prep and coffee and the bedrooms for comfy sleeping. The home was clean and well stocked right down to shampoo and soap. We would highly recommend this property!

Riverside cabin
Quiet, relaxing cabin with wildlife all around. We felt safe. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony overlooking the water, sitting on the front porch, and around the fire pit. Abundance of birds, rabbits, deer, and many other animals for us to watch. All this, yet near restaurants, stores, and community activities. The property was exceptionally clean and had all the amenities that met our needs.

Everything was absolutely perfect. The home was spotlessly clean. We had everything we needed. The owners were very friendly and very communicable with us. We enjoyed seeing the wildlife fishing sitting outside campfires. It’s a wonderful place for Family!. And yes, we cannot wait to go back. It is also convenient to go to grocery stores, places to eat, and a great coffee shop.

Highly Recommend!
It's the end of my husband's "Birthday Month," so I really wanted to surprise him with a quiet place where we could just chill from our busy schedules. This was the place! It was only the two of us, so we had tons of extra space that we never used. The property was well taken care of and very comfortable. It's the first time that we've been away for 4 or 5 days that my hubby didn't say he was ready to go home. In fact, he told me that he wished I would have booked it for a few more days. Loved the deer and other wildlife we saw while there. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. We definitely recommend staying here and we would certainly stay here again if we are ever in the area.

Serenity
This is one of the nicest and most peaceful places we have stayed in. We started every morning with coffee on the porch, listening to the brook that runs behind the home. Incredible well stocked. There was absolutely nothing else we needed. The owner was readily available. 4 bedrooms was more then adequate for our small family. I would highly recommend this property!
