Spacious 5 Bed Waterfront Home! Book your Vacation now!

My husband and I bought the waterfront property in 2003 and built the home shortly after. We have enjoyed the projects and many weekends relaxing on the lake with our family and friends. Our boys are now 9 & 10 years old and have known our little cottage as our 'home away' from home all their lives. Catching frogs, kayaking, swimming, fishing, boating are their favorite activities. We enjoy entertaining as you will see when you stay at the Red Anchor Retreat that it is very accommodating. My favorite part of the Red Anchor Retreat? Early morning views of the lake, with the fog rolling off the still lake. I love to sit and watch the birds, listen to the calmness. It's very peaceful!

When my husband and I were looking for a cottage, we knew we needed one that wasn't a days drive away from our home. Being only 2 hours from the Detroit area makes it easy to visit more often! We love the amenities of Forest Lake, including two private beaches with restrooms, BBQ's grill, playscape and a beach volleyball court. We enjoy having a small park just a quick walk down the street for the kids. When they were little it was a short walk in the stroller to get to the swings. As our boys have grown, they now explore in the woods, catching frogs in the shallow creek that runs behind the nearby park or crossing over the bridge to the peninsula that jets out into the lake. I love the lake community, but also that quietness of the woods. The home is situated on a quiet street with very little traffic. We ride bikes, take walks and just enjoy the yard with sprinkler fun or games.
