About this property

Lazy Days Lake House is your ideal lakefront destination

This completely renovated lakefront home offers plenty of space inside and out to relax and have fun with family & friends. Lazy Days Lake House is fully equipped with everything you need for a great getaway, including kayaks, fire pit, and gas grill. The house sits on Little Ore Lake (no wake) which opens to Big Ore Lake. Little Ore also connects to the Huron River which is perfect for kayaking. Located 15 minutes from the shops and restaurants in the beautiful downtowns of Brighton or Dexter.

Lazy Days Lake House is a remodeled 1,600 sq. ft. home with three bedrooms (two upstairs plus a master on the main floor), a bathroom, large kitchen/family room combo which opens into a dining/sunroom with a panoramic view of the lake. The laundry is on the first floor along with an electric fireplace, and complimentary internet/TV is provided.

Outside, you'll find 40ft of lakefront, and an L-shaped dock perfect for swimming or fishing. The large deck boasts a gas grill, large dining table, and Adirondack chairs for relaxing.

Ore lake and Little Ore Lake are both private so there is no public boat launch nor are outside boats of any kind allowed. We have five kayaks available for use by our guests which is a great way to spend time on the water! There is also great swimming off the dock in the crystal clear lake water.

There is limited off-street parking or there is room for two cars on our cement driveway.

Our house is in a typical lake community with friendly neighbors, and the best little neighborhood store within walking distance. There, you'll find made-to-go food (amazing pizza and the best fried chicken), a large liquor selection, and any of the basic necessities you may need while on vacation.

The house is 15 mins off Hwy 23, 10 mins from Mt. Brighton Ski Resort, and even closer to several golf courses. It's 45 mins from Detroit and 30 mins from Ann Arbor.

Amazing Lake House!

Our long weekend at Lazy Days Waterfront Cottage was amazing. The cottage was exactly as described. We were able to watch the swans in the lagoon. The neighborhood was very nice. The beds were very comfortable and the very thing was very clean. The area is great. It is close to restaurants and shopping.

Why they chose this property

We love this cottage that sits facing Little Ore Lake which opens up to Big Ore lake. It also connects to Huron River, and you can kayak or canoe up to the bigger chain of lakes. It's super chill with swimming and fishing in the summer, and ice fishing and skating in the winter.
