About this property
Up North Retreat - hot tub - pool table -arcade- darts- fire pits
Enjoy a beautiful cottage on “Wixom Lake”. If you are not familiar with the area, in May 2020 dams failed changing the landscape. Although there currently is no water this retreat will provide you a unique getaway. Our home sits on one of the “fingers” of Wixom Lake and currently has a small stream running through. There is a ton to enjoy on the property and the surrounding area. 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, rec room with a pool table, dart board, bar, tv. Weber BBQ Grill and indoor hot tub.
Full exclusive use of the home, deck, patio, two fire pits, grill, yard games, dartboard, pool table, arcade games, Xbox, basketball hoop and indoor hot tub. 1 bedroom has a queen bed with attached full bath. 2nd bedroom is a full bed with a single top bunk. The living room has 2 sofa couches that can sleep 4. There is a Jacuzzi brand hot tub in the sun room. All buildings on the property have heat and a/c. Other things to note there is WiFi and four smart TVs (living room, both bedrooms and rec room) ran by Firestick and/or Roku. The indoor hot tub fits two adults. Use of two kayaks are included that can be taken to nearby sites.. **As mentioned, water is not accessible but a natural creek runs through. You will notice in the pictures this water level changes seasonally** We are on a small septic drain field so we ask that guests limit using the hot tub once per day.
