Quiet & relaxing...Gorgeous clear water!

My family (myself, husband, daughters: 14, 12, 10 years) had a wonderful time at North Blue Lake! The water was SO clean and clear and we spent hours swimming and cruising around on the 2 provided kayaks and our paddle boards that we brought along. We stayed on weekdays and there were just a few other boaters/paddlers on the lake. In the mornings and evenings we paddled under the bridge, and through the shallow channel over to Blue Lake. The water was so clear and calm and we could see the fish swimming as we glided along. We did not have much luck fishing, but a neighbor caught several decent sized bass. There is a nice, big lawn area down by the shore and the girls enjoyed playing volleyball on the grass. At this property the lake bottom is just a bit mushy (but no seaweed, hooray!!) and is pretty shallow along the length of the dock. However, the lake gets deep not far past the dock, so we would just paddle out and have a blast jumping off our paddle boards and swimming! There are plenty of options for relaxing outside - we especially liked the coved patio area with a gas fireplace & sectional seating. The property would be comfortable for two families or a larger group. The house had plenty of space for our family of 5 and we used the bunk house just as a space to hang out & play games on our rainy afternoon. It is clear the owners worked hard to make the space cute and inviting and we would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Higbee

We are from Lansing -Grand Rapids area but love spending time in northern Michigan. We were originally looking for a place in the woods for snowmobiling and found a piece of Heaven on North Blue Lake and quickly became lake people too! We are looking forward to sharing our where we have enjoyed so many summers boating and swimming and winters snowmobiling.
