Enjoy the "Up North" feel while being only an hour north of Detroit, an hour south of Frankenmuth, 20-30 minutes from hot spots in Clarkston, Holly, Lake Orion, Metamora, etc. The space The Lodge was custom built for the farm's original owners over half a century ago and beautifully updated in 2020. This house sits on a bluff overlooking Narrin Lake and offers the best views of the lake. There are three other houses nearby on the property, so you will see more of our wonderful guests. The houses are far enough apart where you will not be disturbed by the other guests and will still feel secluded while getting to enjoy this peaceful property. Upon entering you will find a spacious, open main floor consisting of the well stocked kitchen, dinning room, living room, den (with sofa bed), wet bar, wood burning stove, bathroom, and main floor bedroom (queen bed). From the living room you will find the access to the loft space (twin bed) which is only accessible by ladder. Open the sliding doors off the living room space to find a serene view of Narrin Lake from the main floor back deck. Up a small flight of stairs you will find the master bedroom (king bed), private bathroom and three small porches offering views from every angle of the space. Down the stairs from the main level is where you will find a kitchenette, pool table, family friendly games and an additional living room space with a sofa bed. Access to the lower level porch area and stairs to the rustic lake shore is also located on this level. The private six person hot tub is located at the front of the house off of the main front deck. Your bonfire pit is at the back of the house. *Please note: there are many stairs/steps to access this house as well as stairs inside the house to access the different levels. Guest access There are miles of forested hiking paths throughout the farm and access to Narrin Lake from these paths as well. Narrin lake is a private-access, spring-fed lake with no motorsports. There are parts that can be quite clear and deep (85’) and other sections are marshland. All of the shoreline is natural. If you plan to play in or near the water, we recommend water shoes or other foot protection. We have two different dock areas to access the lake. With a license you are welcome to fish the lake. If kayaking is more your speed, enjoy using one of our eight provided for your use (kayaks are available in the spring, summer and early fall). Our guests enjoy wadding out into the deeper, clear water to swim as well. (there is not a sandy beach, only shoreline) You’re welcome to visit with the barnyard crew (mini donkeys, sheep, cows, pigs and chickens) at anytime during your stay from behind the fences. We also invite you to schedule a meet and greet session so you can join them inside their pasture to pet, brush and learn more about the animals from one of our barn team members. They will also introduce you to one of our resident horses at this time and give you a tour of the barn. We are not offering riding lessons or trail rides at this time. Other things to note Your Dog(s) We do allow up to three well behaved dogs with your booking (no un-potty trained puppies or aggressive breeds allowed) There is an additional fee of $30/night for each dog. Please let us know when booking if you are bringing any dogs and if so what breed they are. When you're exploring the property with pups, please keep them leashed or at your side until you hit the trails. If you plan to leave them alone in the house, they must be in a crate/kennel as we know even the best behaved dogs act differently in new environments. Sorry, no cats.
