LAKESHORE LIVING
Building on the West Michigan Lakeshore Enriches Your Lifestyle
We build vacation homes, second homes, cottages and new homes on the West Michigan lakeshore. We are adept at managing projects with clients who are out of state or country through the use of our project management software, videos and weekly updates.
Many people from around the country, world, and West Michigan love living on or retreating to Lake Michigan and its surrounding inland lakes because of the views, culture, beaches, relaxation, and access to recreational activities. PR Design Build can help you become one of them, whether you want to build, renovate, or add additions.
We Build the Lakeshore Lifestyle in Your Home
We can provide luxurious interior features that many lakeside homeowners prefer:
An open-concept design. You’ll love open-concept design if you’re like the many lakeshore homeowners who value convenience and breathability. The kitchen, living room, and dining area flow smoothly with high ceilings and natural light. The living space usually extends from the great room to the deck or covered porch.
The open concept accommodates family and social life well, as you can simultaneously cook, watch kids, and entertain guests.
Remember the hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, high-end countertops, and inviting furniture!
Inviting bedrooms. After a long day in the sun, you may just want a cozy bedroom to retire to. Use it to read, relax, sleep, or as a romantic getaway. Luxurious features include ensuite bathrooms, fireplaces, high ceilings, soft carpets, smart technology to control the atmosphere, private balconies or patios to gaze at the lake, and whatever else meets your needs!
A spa retreat in the bathroom. Do you want to step into your bathroom and feel like you traveled to a resort spa? You may enjoy calming colors on the walls, wood, and stone materials. We could provide abundant counter space and room to get ready.
Lakeshore bathrooms often have a freestanding tub perfectly placed to view the lake. In addition, you may have a spacious shower with peaceful rainfall showerheads and beautiful materials, such as natural glass or stone. Just imagine stepping out of the shower and onto your heated floor with your towel warmer ready.
Large windows and skylights could help you thrive on natural light. Wash up with a high-end sink, and stay organized with smart storage solutions in your cabinets, shelves, and drawers.
A gourmet kitchen. For those who value functionality and splendor in the kitchen, go for a gourmet kitchen! What’s better than an outdoor kitchen adjacent to your indoor kitchen? Additionally, an open layout allows you to supervise children or entertain guests while you cook.
A key aspect of a gourmet kitchen is a large island convenient for prepping, cooking, eating, and socializing. Of course, you may also have lots of counter space, usually quartz or granite surfaces, and storage space, like custom cabinets and walk-in pantries.
These kitchens typically have a bar area, a separate sink for prepping ingredients, and a beautiful tile backsplash.
Expansive windows. Many lakeshore homes have abundant large windows, even in the bedrooms, so you can enjoy the beautiful lake views from the comfort of indoors. We could even add a sliding glass door to your bedroom that leads to your private balcony or patio.

The PR Design Lakeshore Building Process
We Have Defined The PR Design Build Process To Be 7 Steps
Discover the step-by-step journey to your lakeside home build with PR Design Build. From initial consultation to final reveal, our process ensures excellence in every detail.
1. Initial Consultation
We discuss the desired project and feasibility with professional guidance. Homeowner’s wants, needs, tastes and style preferences are critical during this process. We also review a target budget range.
2. Design Build Contract
Upon determining that the desired project fits within the recommended target budget range, an investment is made by the homeowner to proceed to the next Design phase. The contract amount varies based on the potential scope of work.
3. Design & Scope Development
On paper, we start building. The goal is to build the project within the agreed upon target budget range. We finalize a design, develop and confirm the complete scope of work, assist with product selections and consult with our specialty trades as needed (i.e. plumbing, electrical). We commit to keeping the project within budget and communicate with you if the direction may exceed the target budget range.
4. Construction Agreement
At the conclusion of the Design Phase, we present you with a solid construction agreement identifying all work to be performed, a preliminary loose project schedule, a project payment schedule (based on milestones) and an estimated start date.
5. Planning & Organization
Our office takes the lead on managing the project. We file all necessary permits, order all materials (unless otherwise noted), schedule trade partners and establish the communication center with you.
6. Construction
“It’s FINALLY HERE!” The day you have been waiting for gets underway with the preparation of demolition areas with dust control measures. We perform the work per our design and construction agreement. Here we address any additional needs and concerns.
7. Completion
When construction is complete, we do a final walk-through and discuss warranty. By using quality products and building materials, we leave your project knowing we have truly delivered lasting value. We provide a one-year labor warranty and assist with manufacturer’s warranties if needed. If not 100% satisfied with your project, we request a review of our company and work.
