About this property

Bon Jodi's Dreamy Escape Guest House

Stop here. You've found the winter wonderland and summer dreamland. There's so much to offer every season, including a variety of games, a large bonfire pit, and a seasonal heated igloo for a unique fall and winter experience. Enjoy our indoor bar with two TVs, a pool table, arcade games, and cornhole. New floors and new felt on the pool table done Jan 2026! Our lake also boasts stunning sunsets throughout the year! Kayaks, paddleboards, water bike, and paddle boat available at no extra charge. NEW IN 2025 is Linda's Lake Vibes Boat Tours is available, and you are picked up at the end of the dock. Please see flyer in the photos for more details.

This is our guest home where the entire inside is private. We live in the actual home attached by a breezeway, so you will see us around the yard and beach at times. However, we try not to invade your privacy outside and do not use our yard and beach as we would when we don't have guests. We are social and friendly people, so feel free to reach out and chat, or just enjoy your own peace and quiet. We will respect your wishes.

We also only allow 3 cars in the parking spots in the driveway. No parking in the street. Please respect these rules and drive very slow down the road for the safety of our pets and children. There is also NO oven nor a washer and dryer. However, a Grill, induction portable cooktop, and griddle are all available for your cooking needs.

If you are bringing your pet, please add that to the reservation as there is a charge for a pet. We gladly welcome them but have had a few guests show up with pets we did not know were coming and then they are surprised by the added fee.

Do know that our dock is "seasonal" and is usually in from May until Oct. Sometimes we can put the dock in the water in April. It depends on our lovely Michigan weather. Please inquire before booking if you need to know. The dock is in place for your relaxation pleasure, at this time, we do not allow boats to be parked at this dock. No rentals available on this lake.

This is an owner operated vrbo and not managed by a property rental company. We like to ensure you have a great vacation experience.

It was very clean and well-appointed. Plenty of games and activities to do, even on rainy days! We enjoyed walking through the neighborhood and dining at the nearby Zukey Lake Tavern. It was a perfect place to spend some quality family time.

Very nice home, clean and stocked well. Pretty central to things we wanted to do. I will say this home is perfect for fun in the sun with the lake right across the street. It was unique for sure.

The main level recreation/bar area was perfect for a family get together. Lots of seating, lots of entertainment with the pool table, corn hole and other games. The upstairs (bedrooms/office TV room) was very nice, clean and comfortable.

Great Stay

We only stayed one night but wish we stayed longer. We found this place without really having plans. Once I read the listing I wanted to check it out. It was even better than I expected. It’s kid friendly and adult friendly. Whatever your situation or goals this is a very cool place to stay.

Great stay

We had a wonderful stay here. We had 7 people for the evening, but only 4 stat the night. Property was beautiful and kitchen was stocked with utensils. Bedrooms were also plentifully stocked with extra blankets and pillows plus plenty of sleeping options, 2 traditional beds, 2 futons and an air mattress. We also had the pleasure of meeting a very friendly orange cat who hung out with us outside and enjoyed pets. The bar area was perfect to sit around and chat.

Hiking and overnight stay

We stayed for one night "off-season". It was a spontaneous decision to go hiking and go to breweries/pubs in the area with our dog. This is a very cool rental. We were able to order doordash, and play pool while we watched football playoffs. It is a cool set up, good vibe and perfect for our short get away. The owners are responsive and check in and check out was smooth. Highly recommend!

Girls night

We did a girls night at Bon Jodies and could not of had more fun. We loved the rental! So many nice touches throughout, like snacks, coffee, drinks, and robes. We loved the main hang out space and spent most our time at the bar playing some of their games. The house was very clean and the beds were amazing! This rental has everything you need!! We want to come back in the summer and enjoy the outdoor space.

Dreamy Escape Indeed

Highly recommend this rental! There was something for everyone in my family of six. Between, the kayaks and paddle boards, the outdoor games, the game room, and televisions in the bedrooms, everybody was thoroughly entertained. The place itself is well cared for, immaculately clean, and the thoughtful owners included so many extras - kitchen appliances and utensils, juices, water, chocolate, and a coffee bar too! Check in was a breeze and communication was great, and there was an incredibly thorough binder that familiarized us with everything in the area. You can really tell that the owners care, and want their guests to feel welcome. They were very friendly, and although they live there we felt as if we had plenty of privacy. Amazing place!
