About this property

Lakefront A-Frame: Private Beach, Fire Pit, Kayaks, Paddleboards, & Boat Slip

Welcome to Keeler Lake Lodge! A year round lakefront retreat, perfect for making memories with family or friends. This 1960s a-frame is situated on 100 ft of private beachfront on all sports Keeler Lake. It has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities while retaining its original character. The home sleeps 10 comfortably, with 3 bedrooms + a loft & 2 full baths. A grill, fire pit, kayak, paddle board, & lawn games are included making this home the perfect mix of entertainment & relaxation.

Main Floor
The interior of the home is warm and inviting, with a spacious open-plan living area with spectacular lake views from nearly every room. When you enter the house, you are greeted by a cozy reading nook and a full bathroom stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Take a few steps into the a-frame and you are in the living room with floor to ceiling windows with sweeping views of the lake. The living room features comfortable seating, including a West Elm sofa with a fold out memory foam full size bed, a 50 inch smart TV, and plenty of board games and books for the whole family. Our fireplace has an electric insert, making it easy to have the feel of a cozy fire instantly.

The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and all the essentials for cooking and dining. There is a large dining table with lake views that can seat up to 10 guests plus an island that can seat 3. A highchair is available upon request. Enjoy your morning coffee using either the drip coffee maker or French press. The washer and dryer are located right off of the kitchen.


Second Floor
At the top of the floating staircase you’ll find the loft which includes a full size daybed that can sleep two and has an incredible view of the lake. The first bedroom sleeps up to 4, with a full size bed, a twin bed, and a twin trundle bed. It also includes a smart TV. The second bedroom has a queen size bed, closet, and smart TV. In the primary bedroom is a queen size bed, a large closet and room darkening shades. An adjustable standing desk should you need to work while you’re here, and a balcony perfect for a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine. A pack and play is located in the closet. All bedrooms feature comfortable beds, soft linens, ceiling fans, and Android/Apple chargers. Another full bath is located on the second floor and has shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a hair dryer..

Outdoor spaces
Keeler Lake Lodge features ample outdoor areas to enjoy - a large sandy private beach, two large decks + a balcony, a patio with a grill, and a fire pit with 10 seats. The beach is sandy and the waters are shallow for the first several yards in, making it perfect for little ones to splash in. Walk to the end of the dock and have a seat on our bench and fish or just take in the views of the lake. Take the kayak or paddle board out for a ride or play a game of bags/cornhole along the shore. Children’s life vests, rafts, and sand toys are available for use. On the main level deck, dine alfresco at the 10 person dining table or enjoy a beverage on the loveseat and chairs. Prefer to lounge in the sun? Go down a flight of stairs to our lower deck and catch some rays on the chaise lounge chairs or swing in the macrame swings.

About the Area
Located in southeast Michigan, only 2 hours from Chicago and ~2.5 hours from Detroit. The location is the perfect balance of peace and fun in the sun. The lake is in a serene area, surrounded by apple orchards and an asparagus farm, however it is still within a 15 minute drive to local restaurants, breweries and shops. The region is known as the fruit belt so you will find several orchards, farm stands, and wineries within a 10-30 minute drive. Whether you’re looking for a sun filled summer vacation, a spring or fall trip to explore fruit farms and orchards, or a cozy winter getaway, Keeler Lake Lodge is the perfect place to create unforgettable memories.
