About the host
Your host
Hi there! If you’re reading this we probably share the same joy of traveling! I am a very responsive, hands on host.

Looking forward to hosting you soon!
Why they chose this property
The location:
Top-notch location situated right in the middle of everything North Oakland County has to offer! What we love about our location is you get the up north Michigan feels, but your SO close to the neighboring suburbs. "Mandon Retreat" is on a short dirt road (approx. 200 yards) with minimal traffic in a quiet neighborhood. Our home is directly on All-Sports Mandon Lake with the canal right in our backyard! 30 minutes (15 miles) to Pine Knob Ski Resort / Amphitheater, 10 minutes (5 miles) to Alphine Valley Ski Resort, 30 minutes (17 miles) to Mount Brighton, 30 minutes (17 miles) to Oakland University, 25 minutes (12 miles) to Pontiac's northern loop of the Woodward Dream Cruise, within 12 miles of 10 Oakland County golf courses, and less than 10 minutes to 15+ water front restaurants and bars!
About Mandon Lake:
The lake is affectionately known as the "Mighty Mandon", because despite its smaller size all sports are permitted.
With a maximum depth of 18 feet, Mandon Lake is fully capable of having skiing or watertubing. Being a smaller lake, it is private, making it a great place to reap all the benefits of waterfront living in Michigan.
