About this property
Spacious Lake Stay • Hot Tub • 11 Bed • Pool Table
Lakeside vibes only! This spacious retreat on Donnell Lake is made for family fun and chill getaways. Splash around with 100 ft of private shoreline, cook up a storm in the chef’s kitchen, hang in the game loft, or soak in the hot tub. Morning coffee on the deck? Yes, please. Not a party house—just good times and great views.
🌊 Lakefront Luxury Retreat on Donnell Lake — Perfect for Families & Relaxation!
Welcome to your serene lakeside escape on stunning Donnell Lake, one of Southwest Michigan’s most beautiful all-sports lakes. This spacious, elegant home sits on 100 feet of private lake frontage and is designed for families and groups seeking relaxation, connection, and unforgettable memories — not parties.
✨ The Space
Our lake house offers 6 comfortable bedrooms and 4.5 modern bathrooms, thoughtfully designed to provide both privacy and cozy gathering spaces for groups of up to 18 guests.
• The bright and airy loft family room features windows on three sides, letting in gorgeous lake views and natural light. It’s perfect for reading, enjoying coffee from the dedicated coffee hutch, or a fun game on the Brunswick pool table.
• The primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom featuring radiant heated floors, plus a private deck for morning coffee or evening stargazing.
• A chef’s dream, the gourmet kitchen comes equipped with quartz countertops, a premium Wolf cooktop, and all the tools you’ll need to prepare meals together. A second fridge and two laundry areas help make longer stays comfortable and convenient.
• The main living and dining area offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with a wood-burning fireplace for cozy nights and a modern bio-fuel fireplace for ambiance.
🌿 Outdoor Enjoyment
• Relax on the expansive lakefront deck, featuring a gazebo, sectional seating, and plenty of space for outdoor dining and conversation.
• Melt your stress away in the Hot Springs Envoy Hot Tub while enjoying tranquil lake views.
• Step down to the lake for swimming, boating, kayaking, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings along your private shoreline.
Donnell Lake is perfect for water sports, yet it’s equally suited for quiet mornings on the dock with a coffee in hand.
🛏️ Sleeping Arrangements
• 6 bedrooms offering a variety of King, Queen, Full, and Twin beds (detailed layout provided upon booking)
• Loft space can comfortably sleep an additional 10 guests
