Central Lake House | The Only Thing We Overlook is Intermediate Lake.Booking NOW for Summer 2026!

8 Bedroom House in Central Lake

Imagine drinking your morning coffee on a deck overlooking a beautiful all-sports lake while watching the hummingbirds feed on the nectar of the brilliant-orange trumpet vine next to the deck. The house is quiet. The lake is still. Soon the pitter patter of your family's feet will begin as they rise for another glorious day at The Lake House. You smile thinking about what lies ahead...a day filled with sun, swimming, games, and laughter and finished off around the bonfire roasting marshmallows and staring at the stars. This vacation can be yours when you stay at The Lake House.
The property consists of two homes: the 'Lake House' is a six-bedroom, three-bathroom, fully-furnished home; the 'Road House' sits behind the Lake House and is a completely renovated, two bedroom, one-bathroom cottage. Located on beautiful Intermediate Lake, The Lake House has 130 feet of lakefront and includes a dock, firepit, and huge custom grill. The water is shallow and sandy close to shore making it perfect for families with small children or adults who like to tie their rafts to the dock and soak in the sun.
The home is surrounded with decking in the front and backyards and has two picnic tables and lots of tables and chairs. Inside, you’ll find three fully stocked kitchens (including a dishwasher), four full bathrooms, eight bedrooms, two fireplaces (gas and natural), and a laundry room. In all, The Lake House has sleeping accommodations for 23 (four queens, two full, 3 bunks with full size lower bed, and one sofa bed). You supply the towels, bed linens and your toiletries.
The Lake House is located in Central Lake, Michigan which is just minutes from Bellaire, home of Short's Brewing. It is close to several championship golf courses, skiing, restaurants, shopping, casinos, wineries, and several northern 'hot spots': ten minutes from Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain, ten minutes from Torch Lake and Lake Michigan, 30 minutes from Charlevoix, and 40 minutes from Traverse City, Boyne City and Petoskey.
The Lake House is available year round for all of your recreation activities: swimming, boating, fishing, water-sports, skiing, snowmobiling, golfing, hiking, hunting, fall color tours, etc. Whether you like to be on the go or prefer to sit and relax, The Lake House offers you all the choices.

Summary: We invited out-of-town friends for their first visit to Michigan and the house was perfect for our big, all ages group. The view and water access was lovely. The location was convenient to other fun areas like Mackinac Island, Charlevoix, and Traverse City. There were farm stands, local stores, restaurants, and more all nearby. The hosts were welcoming and helpful when we needed to be in touch during our stay. We definitely recommend this spot to anyone considering!
