We love to step away from the stress of modern society and Retreat to Grass Lake. From sunrise to sunset, watching and listening to the waterfowl from the deck and spacious yard provides the feeling of unmatched tranquility. We like to use the paddle boat, bicycles and yard games (croquet, badminton, horseshoes). The deck furniture is very comfortable for just relaxing or reading. We spend evenings around the firepit stargazing, watching the fireflies and listening to the woodland night sounds. If it's raining, we stay in the game-room (playing foosball, ping-pong, air-hockey, & board games) or building a puzzle. The internet is available and we have a smart TV, DVD player, and video library but we seldom use them. We prefer to retreat to the lifestyle we grew up in and just unwind. We always come home feeling refreshed and counting the days until our next stay.

It is so peaceful here at Grass Lake. This DNR owned and managed no-wake lake is populated by multiple types of waterfowl. The property is adjacent to the 11,235 acre Flat River State Game Area, available for your use and enjoyment. A parking area leading to trails is just down the road. You will see more wildlife than human life while at the house; in fact, from the deck and 1200' of private water frontage, you can only see one other house. There are several Amish communities nearby offering hand made goods for sale and several small towns within 15 miles providing historic downtown shopping, bike trails, restaurants and area attractions. The bigger cities of Grand Rapids and Big Rapids are about 45 miles away. The kitchen has a full compliment of countertop appliances, cooking utensils & bakeware, two full sets of tableware, a wide variety of beverage glasses and a spice rack. You can also cook over the camp fire or use the BBQ. We even provide paper plates and cups as well as napkins & paper towels, kleenex, garbage bags, and dish soap. There is an extra set of linens (including blankets) for each bed. We provide you with plenty of bath towels, hand towels, wash cloths, dish towels and beach towels in addition to shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hand soap. We are available 24/7 to answer any questions or resolve any concerns you may have during your stay.

The natural setting, vintage decor, and provided entertainment set the stage for you to step back to a simpler time and enjoy the best thing in life ..... time interacting with those you love.
