About this property

Bon Jodi's Dreamy Escape Guest House

Stop here. You've found the winter wonderland and summer dreamland. There's so much to offer every season, including a variety of games, a large bonfire pit, and a seasonal heated igloo for a unique fall and winter experience. Enjoy our indoor bar with two TVs, a pool table, arcade games, and cornhole. We know you will enjoy a relaxing vacation at our home. Our lake also boasts stunning sunsets throughout the year! Kayaks, paddleboards, water bike, and paddle boat available at no extra charge. NEW IN 2025 is Linda's Lake Vibes Boat Tours is available, and you are picked up at the end of the dock. Please see flyer in the photos for more details.

This is our guest home where the entire inside is private. We live in the actual home attached by a breezeway, so you will see us around the yard and beach at times. However, we try not to invade your privacy outside and do not use our yard and beach as we would when we don't have guests. We are social and friendly people, so feel free to reach out and chat, or just enjoy your own peace and quiet. We will respect your wishes.

We also only allow 3 cars in the parking spots in the driveway. No parking in the street. Please respect these rules and drive very slow down the road for the safety of our pets and children. There is also NO oven nor a washer and dryer. However, a Grill, induction portable cooktop, and griddle are all available for your cooking needs.

If you are bringing your pet, please add that to the reservation as there is a charge for a pet. We gladly welcome them but have had a few guests show up with pets we did not know were coming and then they are surprised by the added fee.

Do know that our dock is "seasonal" and is usually in from May until Oct. Sometimes we can put the dock in the water in April. It depends on our lovely Michigan weather. Please inquire before booking if you need to know. The dock is in place for your relaxation pleasure, at this time, we do not allow boats to be parked at this dock. No rentals available on this lake.

This is an owner operated vrbo and not managed by a property rental company. We like to ensure you have a great vacation experience.
