Private Island Escape - Footbridge Access - 360° Views - Sunrise + Sunset
Welcome to Turtle Bay Island (TBI), your ultimate getaway in southern Michigan! Nestled in the heart of the shimmering waters of Pipestone Lake, this exquisite island retreat offers a serene and breathtaking vacation experience like no other.
30 seconds from parking, walk across the foot bridge, Step onto Turtle Bay Island and be captivated by the untouched natural beauty that surrounds you. This island is part of 22-acres of land and boasts 110 acres of a picturesque lake, teeming with wildlife. The region is known for its excellent fishing opportunities,
and home of swans and turtles.
Our charming VRBO listing features a 4-bedroom, 2-bath house, meticulously designed to provide you with utmost comfort for relaxation. The spacious and elegantly furnished rooms are adorned with soothing colors, reflecting the tranquil ambiance of the island.
With multiple bedrooms, the house can comfortably accommodate large families or groups of friends seeking a memorable getaway.
The living area is an inviting space where you can unwind after a day of exploring the island and the lake. Enjoy the stunning 360-degree lake views as you step outside to feel the gentle lake breeze. (Fire place in living room NOT operational)
The fully equipped kitchen allows you to prepare your favorite meals. The dining area is complete with table for 10, available for enjoying delicious island feasts together.
One of the highlights of Turtle Bay Island is "The Shell," a hidden gem where you can relax and soak up the island's beauty. "The Shell" features a couch, club chairs, a smartTV, and a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, perfect for enjoying breathtaking sunrises and sunsets or simply taking a summer breeze nap.
For those seeking adventure, the island offers a variety of activities to suit every taste. Embark on an exhilarating kayak tour around the lake and explore its three different bays. If you have a boat, there is a public boat ramp on the lake that allows you
to anchor in the back bay, swim all day, and cruise along the shore to witness stunning sunsets.
After a day on the lake, you can grill your favorite meals on the gas grill. Adjacent to "The Shell," you'll find a pergola with a table for 10, ideal for enjoying family or friends dinners. If you prefer to dine out there are local restaurants and breweries
nearby. You can also explore fresh food markets and wineries in the area.
As the sun sets over Turtle Bay Island, you'll be treated to a spectacle of colors painting the sky. As you relax on the island you choices are endless, two different fire pits with Adirondack chairs or the two different decks around the side or rear of the house allows you to spread out. Relax on your private island, sip a glass of wine, and witness the magical transition from day to night.
