The Tig at Lakeshore

New Year's Eve Special: Book a stay over December 31st and receive a complimentary Celebration Package to help you ring in the new year!

Let the calm of nearby Lake Michigan guide your stay at The Tig—a brand-new, minimalist retreat where modern design and natural beauty come together in effortless harmony. With clean lines, open space, and curated simplicity, this home offers the perfect setting to unwind, recharge, and reconnect with the rhythms of nature.

Now fully complete and ready to welcome guests, The Tig invites you to experience lakeshore living at its most serene. Step inside and instantly exhale — the main level opens to a two-story great room flooded with natural light and framed by panoramic windows that showcase views of Lake Michigan. Whether you're lounging in the cozy living area, preparing fresh local fare in the fully equipped kitchen, or gathering for slow meals at the dining table, you’ll always be surrounded by peace and beauty.

Just off the great room, a small deck with comfortable seating becomes your front-row seat to vibrant Lake Michigan sunsets. Step down to the adjacent patio where you’ll find an outdoor dining area and charcoal BBQ grill—perfect for evening cookouts and stargazing nights. From every angle, the lake remains your constant backdrop.

The main-level primary bedroom offers quiet privacy with an eastern-facing view and sliding glass doors that open to the backyard—a beautiful spot to sip your morning coffee or stretch before the day begins. A sleek, custom-tiled bathroom with a walk-in shower is located nearby.

Upstairs, the open loft area overlooks the great room and offers a relaxed space to read, sit, or simply take in the view through large lake-facing windows. A stylish daybed provides an alternate lounging spot for anyone who prefers their own sleeping space, though the home’s occupancy is thoughtfully capped at six guests to maintain comfort and balance.

The true standout of the upper level is the expansive balcony—a sun-soaked outdoor lounge ideal for morning yoga (just bring your mat), quiet conversation, or watching the waves dance on the horizon. Two upstairs bedrooms—each with a queen bed—provide cozy retreats for guests, along with a second full bathroom featuring a walk-in, custom-tiled shower.

Step outside and let nature complete the experience. Enjoy the warmth of the two-person cedar sauna, gather around the backyard fire pit, or take the short 0.1-mile stroll to Pier Cove Beach for a day of sand, sunshine, and shoreline bliss. This beloved stretch of Lake Michigan coastline is known for its natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere.

Tucked in the lakeshore area of Fennville, The Tig offers easy access to the best of Southwest Michigan. Spend your days exploring Saugatuck, Douglas, South Haven, or Fennville itself—each one brimming with art galleries, boutique shops, wineries, breweries, hiking trails, and farm stands. There’s something here for every pace and every season.

At The Tig at Lakeshore, you’ll find space to rest, reflect, and breathe deeply—with the lake always within reach.

A Note from the Owner:
"Spending his early years in up in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, my father "Petit Glion", colloquially "ti'glion". This was shortened to "Tigli" and finally to "Tig". The nickname stuck as the family traveled from station to station over the years. Pier Cove was an anchor and home base, and my grandmother spent her post-retirement life.

She hosted children and grandchildren through the Summers, trying to keep us from dragging the beach back into the house on sand-caked feet from our sun-filled days and bonfire nights. Those Summers inspired me to start a marshmallow company, Malvi Mallow, to capture the joy of Summer in Michigan.

We built "The Tig at Lakeshore" to harbor new adventures and make way for fresh cherished memories for our children and guests. Leap in the waves, search for treasure stones on the shores, walk in the ravine, linger over the sunset, and sleep deeply to the unplugged soundtrack. We hope you thoroughly enjoy your time at The Tig.

PS You can see Tig in the foreground of the B&W Photo next to the dining table :)"

Please Note:
Lawn Installation: Grass will be planted in late June. A full lawn may not be established until late July or early August. Thank you for your understanding as the landscaping continues to take root.
Refrigerator Size: The home features a compact refrigerator, which has less storage capacity than a standard-size fridge. Please plan ahead when packing or purchasing groceries.
Nature & Wildlife: This home is nestled in a beautiful natural setting where wildlife and insects are part of the experience. Routine pest control services are in place, but from time to time, you may encounter a curious critter, especially if doors are left open. If you notice any signs of pests indoors, please contact our office so we can promptly address it.
Septic System: The home operates on a septic system. Only flush toilet paper and human waste. Flushing wipes, feminine products, or other items can result in backups and damage. Guests may be held financially responsible for service calls or damage due to improper use.
Well Water: The home uses well water filtered through a reverse osmosis system, making it safe to drink. However, it may taste or smell different than city water. The naturally high mineral content in the area can sometimes leave an orange tint on white surfaces, including tubs, toilets, and linens washed at the home. This is normal and not harmful.
Security Camera: A security camera is installed at the front door. It records video and audio momentarily when it detects motion.
