About this property
Tranquil haven with a roomy deck and stunning panoramic lake views.
Welcome to Your Serene Lakeside Sanctuary on Earl Lake
Step into a peaceful retreat filled with natural light, comfort, and charm—your serene sanctuary awaits. This thoughtfully appointed home is designed for relaxation and connection, offering stunning views of Earl Lake and every amenity you need for a memorable getaway. Whether you’re sipping a fresh cup of coffee at sunrise or unwinding with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the water, this tranquil setting is sure to refresh your spirit.
The heart of the home is the spacious deck, overlooking beautiful Earl Lake. Here, you can bask in the warmth of the Michigan sun, breathe in the fresh lake air, and take in picture-perfect views that stretch from sunrise to sunset. Whether you’re enjoying a slow morning, hosting a laid-back lunch, or gathering for a magical evening under the stars, the deck provides a welcoming outdoor living space for every part of the day.
Cozy Corners & Outdoor Comforts
For those who prefer a shady nook and a quiet read, the charming courtyard offers a peaceful hideaway. Settle in with your favorite book and a warm beverage, with the gentle glow of the chiminea nearby. When the mood calls for more open-air lounging, head to the cozy gazebo with sectional seating or stretch out in the backyard lounge area, where comfort and calm are always in generous supply.
The outdoor living area has been designed for both fun and relaxation. Catch the morning news or an afternoon sports game on the outdoor TV, all while enjoying the breeze from the deck. The home’s peaceful ambiance extends into the finished basement, where there’s ample room to relax, watch movies, or let the kids dive into games and entertainment, giving everyone a chance to unwind.
Fun for All Ages, All Seasons
This is a property that truly celebrates every season. Gather friends or family for a lively game of cornhole or a round of giant Connect Four under the charming pergola. As the evening winds down, roast marshmallows and share stories around the fire pit, making memories that last long after your stay.
Cooking outdoors is a breeze thanks to the flat-top grill—ideal for preparing breakfast, lunch, or dinner with a view. The backyard also features lightweight fencing, perfect for keeping your four-legged family members safe and contained while they enjoy their time outside.
In the winter months, Earl Lake becomes a quiet wonderland. Try your hand at ice fishing, or glide across the frozen lake on skates during snow-covered days. It’s a year-round retreat that offers something special in every season.
Recreation, Relaxation & Local Charm
Looking to explore? You’re just minutes away from the best that the area has to offer. Enjoy easy access to historic downtown Howell and the vibrant charm of Brighton. Indulge in delicious meals at nearby restaurants and breweries, taste your way through a local winery, or hit the greens at the nearby golf course. For those who love to shop, a downtown shopping stroll or a trip to the outlet mall is just a short drive away.
Summer travelers can enjoy the public beach or splash pad at the nearby Metro Park—just 30 minutes from your doorstep. For a dose of holiday magic any time of year, plan a visit to the world-famous Bronner’s CHRISTmas Wonderland, only about an hour away.
Lake Life, Your Way
Water lovers will be thrilled with the easy access to Earl Lake, a quiet, all-sports lake that’s perfect for paddling, floating, or fishing. Kayaks and paddleboards are available for your use, along with a paddleboat and a rowboat—just steps from the backyard. (Beach access is conveniently located just two lots down.) Behind the home, a spacious park area is ideal for tossing a ball, playing frisbee, or simply enjoying a bit of open space.

The owners live nearby and are happy to assist with any questions or needs during your stay, ensuring a smooth and welcoming experience from beginning to end.
