About this property

Brian Boru's White House Cttge On The Lake ~ Ann Arbor ~ Kayaks ~ Pontoon Avail

A very special, cozy & accomodating family vacation rental and inviting lakefront property with views of Nature on the Lake from every window. Located 10 minutes from downtown Ann Arbor, its enchanted PRIVATE all-sports lake is filled with wildlife and the best fishing in the county, say local fishermen. Its beautiful vistas include all sides of the Lake. Ideal for family reunions/vacations or intimate R&R for guests. A northern Michigan-like setting. 4 kayaks, a canoe and paddle boat are included with the rental, and pontoon boat available separately. Easy access to expressway, Ann Arbor, Brighton, local grocers & eateries.

writing retreat
The house is fantastic, with an almost 360° view of the lake. We stayed for three days with a group of academics for a writing retreat, and the location is ideal for balancing both academic and recreational activities. Highly recommended!

Whitmore Lake
Brian was an excellent host. He met us at the house when we arrived and showed us around. We were in town for family weekend in Ann Arbor and hit up the football game. The drive back and forth was about 15min. Property was beautiful, would love to come when the weather is warmer to enjoy the lake. House was clean and offered plenty of room for 10 guests.

Family Lake Day
Brian was a terrific host. He took time to show us all around and was so welcoming. The house and activities fit our family perfectly - we brought our boat for tubing, and the kayaks and paddle boat provided were a big hit. Our family had a lovely weekend at the lake - highly recommend!
