Welcome to your cozy escape in Michigan's breathtaking Upper Peninsula, nestled along the tranquil shores of Upper Holmes Lake.

The lodge comfortably sleeps up to eight guests and invites you to slow down and savor the simple joys of nature. Whether you're paddling across the calm, no-wake waters in one of the two rowboats, the canoe, or the paddleboat, or enjoying a refreshing swim just steps from the door, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Mornings are best spent with a warm mug on the deck, watching the mist rise off the lake, while evenings bring campfires, laughter, and starry skies.
