We had a group of friends stay for a long weekend to enjoy some fishing, games and relaxation. This was the perfect place for that! Everything was exactly as described (or even better in some cases!). They really go the extra mile to make sure you feel comfortable and enjoy your stay. I will definitely be looking to book again in the near future.

We had a wonderful stay at the Lodge and the Carriage House. We spent lots of time on the patios and decks just relaxing and enjoying the peace. We did the massage and executive chef experiences and they were just fantastic. This location is in a nice small town, but within an easy drive of Grand Rapids and Michigan Adventures amusement park - lots to do!

We had such an amazing time during our stay at Grass Lake Lodge. My fiancé and I celebrated a joint bachelor/bachelorette weekend with our close friends and all of the amenities made it the perfect lake weekend getaway to celebrate our upcoming marriage! We grilled out, swam, fished, kayaked, enjoyed the hot tub, and played lots of games. 10/10 would recommend! Bob was so kind and made us feel so welcome. I'd love to return one day with our future kids!

Awesome Vacation

We had a great time. The kitchen was large enough for everyone to help prepare meals. The bedrooms were nice. The great room had a wonderful view of the lake. Everyone enjoyed the swimming, kayaks and boats. The game room was used by all. We have already booked another week for next summer.

A beautiful spot for our family vacation

This was a return trip for us to Grass Lake and we loved it as much as our first visit. A beautiful home with everything we could need on a private, quiet lake - our entire family looked forward to this time together and was not disappointed. Thank you for another great visit.
