About this property

Tranquil Lakefront Log Home with Fireplace, Private Dock and Hot Tub!

The ultimate lake getaway awaits at this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath vacation rental house that comfortably sleeps 8 in Branch Township, Michigan. This 3,924 square foot Northwoods Log Home is nestled in Manistee National Forest on Long Lake. Enjoy the calm, sandy-bottom, all-sport lake from your private dock and spend your days swimming, fishing or boating. During the evenings, cozy up by the fireplace, unwind in the hot tub, or enjoy the game room complete with a wet bar, pool table, smart tv, board games and more!
THE PROPERTY
Mornings on Long Lake are like none other. Enjoy your coffee out on the deck listening to the birds sing, as the sun gradually filters through the trees and stretches out over the tranquil lake.
As the day unfolds, get out to enjoy hiking, swimming, boating, skiing, tubing, fishing, exploring, and just being together. When hunger strikes, head inside to whip up tasty dishes for the group.
Turn on some tunes, pour yourself a glass of wine and prepare anything you can imagine in the fully equipped gourmet kitchen. With plenty of workspace, granite finishes, and a gas cooktop, this kitchen is capable of handling all of your culinary challenges. Keep it simple and grill out on the spacious deck while taking in the beautiful surroundings. Enjoy your meal together gathered around the large dining table while sharing the days stories.
In the evening, head out to the dock to catch the sunset before slipping into the hot tub to unwind under the stars. The funs not over yet, retreat to the game room for some snacks and beverages from the wet bar, then rack Em up and shoot a game of pool, or play cards and board games.
THE LOCATION
No matter what season you plan to visit, this property is in a prime spot, perfect for all sorts of activities. In just four short miles, you can be exploring the trails of Huron – Manistee National Forest.
During the warm summer months, enjoy biking, World class fishing, swimming, boating, hiking, kayaking, and even charter fishing on nearby Lake Michigan. With Long Lake right in your backyard, Pere Marquette river nearby, and Lake Michigan so close, your options for outdoor fun are endless!
Trade the summer outfits for warmer attire as the winter months roll in and go ice-skating, snowshoeing, snowmobiling or cross country skiing through Manistee National Forest.
