About this property

Enjoy Waterfront Living On All-sports Magician Lake With Beautiful Sunsets

Our beautiful lakefront home is a wonderful escape for families. Magician Lake is a 550 acre spring-fed lake that's great for waterskiing/wakeboarding, pontooning, kayaking/canoeing, swimming or fishing. The shallow, sandy-bottom lakefront is a wonderful place for kids to play.

Our house sleeps up to 10 with 4 bedrooms and a sleeping porch, plus 2 baths the modern, stainless steel kitchen with granite counter tops opens into an expansive living room with a wood-burning fireplace. The dining room table expands to seat 10-12 comfortably and there's a round table in the kitchen that seats 4-6. Our hot tub easily accommodates 6-8 and is perfect when the weather is less than cooperative.

The deck runs the length of the house, with 2 gas grills, and umbrelled tables that seat 12, its great for outdoor dining or watching sunsets, lake activity and an array of yellow finches, hummingbirds and the herons that grace our lake. And if you are lucky you'll see Magician Lake's bald eagle. We also have a fire pit for family gatherings after the sun sets and a sectional couch on the deck with a fire table for relaxing in the evening.

Our rental includes 2 kayaks and a beautiful kevlar canoe. Pontoons are available to rent at the local marina. There's a public launch if you want to bring your own power boat or jet ski to tie up to our pier.

Linens are included, along with a washer and dryer. Cable TV, wifi, and array of movies and board games are available. If you are a golfing enthusiast, southwest Michigan sports an array of beautiful golf courses an easy drive from the lake, from Harbor Shores to Indian lLkes.

We are conveniently located 2+ hours from Chicago, 50 minutes from south bend and 25 minutes from St. Joe. In addition to lake activities and relaxing, activities in the area include golfing, movies at the local drive-in or celebration cinema, apple picking, and taking the southwest Michigan wine trail.

In the off season, activities include hunting, ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross country and downhill skiing.

About the host

Hosted by Michele Schmal

Host profile image
Mark and I live in Oak Park, Il. We bought the house on Magician Lake in 1999 after a long time friend invited us to visit them across the lake. We fell in love with Magician Lake and began 'shopping' for a home of our own immediately (literally, right after our first ski run, we took a pontoon boat ride armed with coffee, binoculars, pencil and paper to right down the contact info for homes for sale on the lake. We've loved it ever since!
