About this property

Waterfront House w/Dock & Deck on Little Bear Lake

Get ready to live the lake life during your stay at this 4-bedroom, 2-bath vacation rental house in Johannesburg, Michigan! Located on a private beach on Little Bear Lake, this home is perfect for friends and family looking to swim in the crystal-clear waters, fish off the private dock, or rent the available pontoon boat for a day on the tranquil lake. After a day of aquatic adventures, watch the sun dip below the treeline on the deck or shoot some pool with your travel companions!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Full Bed | Bedroom 3: Full Bed | Bedroom 4: Full Bed, 4 Twin Beds | Additional Sleeping: 2 Queen Air Beds

The open floor plan of this 1,800-square-foot lake house allows for plenty of space for your whole group to spread out and unwind! Kick back on the leather furniture in the living room and admire the fantastic lake views through the floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors.

Get out of the sun and head downstairs to play a friendly game of billiards or use the wireless internet access to book a tee time at one of the nearby golf courses.

When stomachs start to rumble, let the designated chef whip up culinary masterpieces in the fully equipped kitchen or have the grill master demonstrate his barbecue abilities using the gas grill. For dessert, head down to the fire pit on the beach to roast delicious s'mores!

End each fun-filled day out on the expansive back deck. Watch the sun set over the water as you recap the day's adventures with your loved ones.

Make your way to one of the 4 well-appointed bedrooms at night, which ensure a restful slumber.

Wake up early each morning and make yourself a fresh cup of coffee. The only noises you'll hear as you sip your beverage on the deck are the peaceful sounds made by the local wildlife.

-- THE LOCATION --

With the hard, sandy beach and crystal-clear water just a few steps from your back door, there's no reason to travel anywhere for a wonderful vacation! Rent the available pontoon boat for the week and take it out for a leisurely cruise on the lake. Kayaks and a paddle boat are also available for guest use free of charge.

As you fish on the dock, the kids in your group will love jumping off the swim platform into the refreshing water!

Should you ever grow tired of boating, fishing, and swimming on the lake, take a short drive to practice your swing at one of the area golf courses. The Garland Golf Resort is only 20 minutes away, and the Treetops Resort is 25 minutes down the road. After your round at the Treetops Resort, stop by the spa to treat yourself!

The Treetops Resort is also well-known for its skiing and snowboarding opportunities once the temperatures start to drop. Travelers visiting in the winter will surely want to hit the slopes! The resort also offers ski and snowboard rentals, so there's no need to bring your own gear.

Great Spot
We were excited to use this house as a home base for our annual golf and fishing trip to Gaylord. The house was perfect for the four of us. Absolutely beautiful location and everything we needed for a long relaxing weekend. The only negative was that the pontoon boat that was advertised and supposed to be available for rent was not. The property manager told me that they were no long renting it out due to issues with the local HOA. They should update the listing to reflect that this is no longer available.

Beautiful summer lake house
This was the perfect lake house for our family vacation. Ages 20 months to 54 years old! The kids swam off the dock, fished off the dock. Boat rides, tubing, relaxing! The owners were great to work with! Would stay here again!
