About this property

Experience lake life at our 3-bedroom beachfront cottage, near Grand Rapids.


Silver Lake is one of the premier all sport lakes in West Michigan with 225 acres. Only 5 miles from downtown Rockford and 16 miles from downtown Grand Rapids. The sandy bottom beach is great for swimming and water activities. A newer 20 foot pontoon boat with a 60 hp engine is available for rent. I also have another larger property on the lake 12 houses away that is VRBO #710565.

The updated cottage has about 1200 square feet with 3 bedrooms, two on the 2nd floor and one on the main. 2 recently renovated full baths, one with a shower and the other with a tub/shower. Two 9 foot sliders provide a great view of the lake. The cottage has newer furniture, beds, and most everything you need for your stay except food.

The outside has a huge deck overlooking the water with only 5 steps down to the grass/beach and a large brick outdoor fireplace with Adirondack chairs for relaxing around a fire. The property comes with 2 kayaks, 2 stand up paddle boards, and a paddle boat. Sand toys for kids, corn hole, horseshoes, and life-jackets are included.

A pontoon boat is available to rent. Inquire about pricing. Insurance and gas is included.

There are numerous recreational activities in the area, including parks, bike/hiking trails, and skiing. A variety of shops and restaurants are located nearby.

This is the 2nd property that I have available on the lake. If the dates are not available that you desire, please inquire about the other property. This Property is sometimes available as a 6 month rental in the winter. The property is generally a weekly rental Friday to Friday in the peak summer weeks.

This is one of 2 vacation rentals. I have another home on the same lake that has been a vacation rental for the past 10 years. I love to travel and learn about other cultures and explore. I've traveled to over 40 countries and all 50 states. I enjoy visiting other VRBO properties. I'm always open to improving my properties and the experience for guests.
