Fantastic city getaway

Grass Lake lodge is a beautiful, peaceful oasis, the perfect place to soak in nature and have great meals and laughs. We loved everything especially the paddle boats, game room and the stunning views.

Great place!

The online listing didn't do justice to how great this place is. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations from owner to property manager to the house and property. Can't wait for a chance to go back!!!

Perfect family getaway!

Our family of 11 had the perfect stay for 3 days! Every detail has been thought of. So much to do; we never left the lodge and enjoyed every minute of it. Space for everyone to be together and yet have some occasional "alone" time. The property is beautiful with the most serene, peaceful setting.

Great place to get away

The lodge was a great place for a golf trip with friends. We went to some great golf courses 2 of the days and spent rest of weekend at lodge, great view of the lake and plenty of room to play outdoor games to pass the time. The lodge had everything we needed to have a good time and plenty of room. Also had fun playing ping pong, shuffle board, and pool table. Would definitely go back and recommend 10/10 .

love the lodge

This was our second year staying at Grass Lake Lodge and plan on staying again next year. You couldn't ask for better owners and managers. Didn't have much ice for skating this year but took advantage of the trails in the woods. Would recommend it to anyone, especially families.

Winter cabin weekend

We stayed with a group of friends and a few little ones and this was the perfect location! They were very easy to communicate with and ready to make sure we had anything we could possibly need. The house accommodated a large group really well and there was always something to do. The new hot tub was AMAZING for taking in the winter views while staying warm. We utilized the carriage house for extra sleeping space. Highly recommend for a weekend away.

Beautiful house and property

Friends and family gathered together to celebrate New Years and had a great time. House and Carriage house were perfect and had plenty of space for 6 adults, 5 teens, 4 kids and 2 dogs. Owner and house manager were very kind and available for any questions or concerns. Plenty to do from trail walking, sitting by bonfires or playing games. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Would give Grass Lake Lodge 10 Stars if possible

This was our first time using a home rental app and we could not have had a better experience from beginning to end. My fiancé and I got engaged at Grass Lake Lodge during our stay and couldn’t have picked a better property to celebrate at! Everything about the home and property is beyond 5 stars. We will definitely be planning our next Michigan getaway at Grass Lake Lodge! Thank you for everything, Bob!

This place is amazing!!!

The Grass Lake Lodge was perfect for our family get together. Outdoor activity abounds, a paddle board and 3 boats, plus floats kept everyone busy on the water. The fishing was non-stop too! When the weather didn't cooperate we had a game room full of activity with the hot tub just out the door. We spent a week there and never left the property except to get groceries. The host was easy to work with and on top of their game. The attention to detail inside the home was fantastic, so many nice features and really everything you need was on hand. This place is even better than the pics!

Summer getaway

Our family had a wonderful time at Grass Lake Lodge! The retreat is even more wonderful than the photographs. The home is beautifully decorated and everything is very clean and in working order. The lake and trails are wonderful. We enjoyed playing pool, shuffle board, and ping pong. The property had plenty of space for our family. The owners really know hospitality! Bob reached out to us before our trip, and so did Don, the caretaker. This property is well-loved, and it shows. Thank you for sharing Grass Lake! We are looking forward to our return.

Relaxing Cabin by the Lake

This was a great relaxing getaway my son fished all day and night the house has speakers all over so was able to hook my phone up and have music everywhere inside and out. We are not TV watchers so we never turned them on but enjoyed the game room and a glass of wine on the deck and watched my son fish on the dock. We are from Arizona and have a small ranch and a HVAC business so we are very busy at home so it was so nice to just relax. We need have some Chickens and Ducks visit while we were there so that was nice as well. Thanks for the great stay.

Fantastic getaway!

This lodge is truly designed as a peaceful vacation getaway! It has everything including quality hair, bath, and body products. It not only looks clean but also smells clean and fresh. The open layout from the kitchen to the dining and living areas works well. Our three generation family enjoyed the amount of space and all the great amenities - hot tub, boats, beach, fishing, fire pit, and especially the game room! Caretakers Damien and Sabrina are the best! This is unlike any place we've stayed before; other houses had quirky, lower quality additions/renovations to convert them to vacation rentals, but none of that here.

Absolutely Perfect

Thank you Bob and Karen for continuing to share Grass Lake Lodge through VRBO. It's an absolutely unique and amazing place and I love spending time there. This trip was a corporate event where we brought several great clients/friends for some fishing on the Pere Marquette River (stellar salmon fishing!). Grass Lake Lodge was the perfect place for us....great location, spotlessly clean, peaceful setting, and too many amenities to count. It's clear you've spent a career as an executive in the hotel industry....you know how to treat guests at your place. Looking forward to our next trip to Grass Lake Lodge!!

February Fun

Our family of six adults stayed at Grass Lake Lodge as a Christmas gift. The house was beautiful and we caught some pike ice fishing. Over near the far shore was where they seemed to be biting. Place had everything you'd want as far as comforts and the we spent a lot of time in the game room playing pool, shuffleboard and ping pong. We even went sledding down the hill beside the house and then soaked in the hot tub at night. The caretaker and owners were responsive and organized. Info on how to work everything and about the area was readily available. Definitely recommend for a getaway in whatever season.

Perfect Stay At Grass Lake Lodge

Everything and everybody was amazing. The property has too much to offer. Bob and Don were great, super communicative, accommodating and responsive. 3 buddies used this vacation as a get away from work and the stresses of life, and couldn’t have asked for a better property to do it at. I am very grateful they let us stay here and am utterly appreciative of their hospitality. I have stayed at many rental homes, and this one takes the cake. The place was clean, organized and very well stocked. Not to mention amazing views and absolutely gracious owners and caretaker. Loved every second. We’ll be back!!

Family Vacation

We had such a wonderful week at Grass Lake Lodge. It was the perfect place for an extended family getaway. I've stayed in a number of similar private rentals, and this one was by far the nicest. It was clean, beautifully furnished, and well stocked with anything you could need. The set up with the carriage house was just right for my brother's family. The lake is beautiful and peaceful, and I loved the multiple trails to hike on. Our kids loved the lake, the stand up paddle board, the fire pit (smores), and the downstairs game room. We all loved the nature atmosphere, all the different birds, and the getaway from the city - it was much needed! Communication with the owner was excellent and immediate, and the local manager was also very responsive. I hope we can go back next year!

Fantastic in every way!

This place was fantastic. The house was well equipped, a full kitchen, lots of towels and beach towels, well decorated and so comfortable. The game room was perfect. But the best for us was the outdoors with a deck off the main level looking out to the lake, a sand beach for the kids to play, the water boats (paddle board, canoe and row boat), and that great dock that reached out into the private lake. We spent many hours fishing from this dock in the morning and evening, with the little kids continually catching small fish and the adults catching much larger fish. It was catch and release for us and such an enjoyable fishing experience. The accommodations were definitely worth the price. We’ll be heading back on our next family vacation.

Great week at a great spot ...

Our second visit to Grass Lake Lodge was as good as the first, last year. Had our family of 6 adults and 5 kids from 2 to 11 years old and the house is set up to allow the kids to play in the lower level while the big folks hang out on the main floor. The property is very nice with the small sand beach and two fire pits for s'mores after a day on the lake. We utilized all the water toys, especially the row boat, paddle boat and paddle board which had a repaired fin that was missing last year. Makes for a much easier paddle! Great communication with Bob, Damien and Sabrina during our stay and the house was clean and top notch when we arrived. Only miss was the ice dispenser on the frig wasn't working (the Achilles heel of any frig) so we worked around the issue with no problem. Figured out how to lower the adjustable basketball hoop for some shot arounds and the kids enjoyed the hammock and hot tub immensely. Hope to return in 2024!

Heavenly retreat!

What an amazing property and location. My wife and two teens spent an amazing week fishing, playing games in the game room and relaxing. The owners are wonderful people who truly care about making sure renters have everything they need. Communication was outstanding and fast. They truly paid attention to small details that really helps renters like labeling all the light switches in the cabin so you know what lights you were turning on. We were also welcomed with a smores kit, information about the cabin and things to do very well laid out and some many other little things the owners do that really makes you feel like they truly care. We only rented the main cabin and was impressed with how clean and well maintained everything was. The layout is great for families and big groups. We spent a lot of time downstairs in the game room playing pool, ping pong, shuffleboard and video games (New machine delivered right before we got there). We spent our days on the dock and in the boat fishing on the private lake. My son caught a very nice pike right off the doc. I could go on and on, to many great things to list. If you want a quiet location to relax in a beautiful cabin this is your place! We're already trying to figure out when we can come back!
