Welcome to your lakeside escape at Stony Lake Hideaway, a retreat designed for comfort, connection, and unforgettable memories.
This spacious home offers breathtaking lake views and an open floor plan perfect for gathering with family or friends. Each bedroom features individual climate control, so everyone sleeps just the way they like. The four-season sunroom is perfect for morning coffee or quiet reflection, while the expansive deck invites you to soak up the sun or enjoy al fresco dinners under the stars. For an additional fee, our summertime guests can add the bunkhouse for up to four additional beds!
Outside, the lake is your playground: bring your own boat to enjoy from the private dock, paddle with the provided kayaks, or unwind by the firepit on crisp evenings. In the fall, watch the shoreline glow with vibrant leaves, explore nearby orchards, and enjoy cozy evenings by the fire. In the winter, soak in the hot tub surrounded by a blanket of snow, try ice fishing, or explore local trails for skiing and snowshoeing. Fast, reliable WiFi keeps you connected — only if you want to be.
Whether it’s a romantic couples’ retreat or a family getaway, this home blends lakeside charm with comfort and convenience for a truly memorable stay.

Beautiful setting, enjoyed fishing, lots of nearby activities. Sun porch was perfect! We used the studio also, and was great.We were a group of older adults, age 65The only issue we had was the beds were not comfortable. 3 of the 5 adults slept on the couch or in a chair.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We are so glad your group enjoyed the beautiful setting, the studio space, and catching some good fishing. The sun porch really is a favorite spot, so it’s wonderful to hear it was a hit for you all.
We also appreciate your honest note regarding the bed comfort. Bed firmness and mattress preferences can be so subjective, but we are truly sorry to hear that a few of you ended up sleeping on the couch and chairs instead of getting a full, restful night's sleep in the bedrooms. We always want our guests to feel as comfortable as possible, and we appreciate you sharing your experience with us.
Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you all again in the future!

Thank you so much for your stay and for taking the time to share your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you loved the house and enjoyed the beautiful views.
We truly appreciate your resourcefulness in replacing the shower head, though we wish we had known about this during your stay so we could have handled it immediately for you. We would love to reimburse you for the cost of the shower head—please reach out to us directly so we can process this.
We had a wonderful time! The property was exactly as described, and my entire family loved our stay. It had everything we needed and all the amenities that made our trip easy and comfortable. We enjoyed a great day on Lake Michigan and had the chance to explore the dunes at Silver Lake, which made the trip even more memorable. Thank you so much for a great experience! We will definitely recommend your property to friends and would absolutely consider staying here again in the future.

John we are so glad you enjoyed your time! We would love to have you back!
We loved the opportunity to stay in the home and reconnect with some Michigan friends. The kitchen was nice and had all the utensils, pots, and pans, and other kitchen needs. there is limited space to unpack and hang clothing in one of the bedrooms and in the garage room where the pullout sofa is. Being on the lake was beautiful. It would be great if you have your own boat because you can launch it right there a couple doors down from where the house is and then you can dock it in front of the house. We really enjoyed using the paddle boat and the fire pit and spent most of our time outdoors. The location is great.

Great cabin. Very clean and family friendly. Quiet environment. Area had lots of rain prior to arrival and lawn was very squishy. Very close to Lewis farm, Mac Woods dune rides, Public Lake Michigan beach.

I'm so glad you had a great time, Aelayna! It has definitely been a very wet spring, but we’re thrilled that you were able to get out and enjoy the nearby fun, too!
We had a wonderful visit. Everything was as advertised and it had all of the amenities we could ask for. Wonderful location, quiet and tucked away with friendly neighbors. Communication was great and check-in and check-out were a breeze. Would definitely go back!
