Peaceful Retreat for Families/Couples/Groups - All Sports Lake w/ Kayaks & SUP's

The Pleasant Lake Residence hosts a spacious and airy floor plan. A wood burning, stone fireplace graces the 18 x 24 foot family room. A large dining/kitchen area features a generous kitchen island, oak hardwood floors and overlooks Pleasant Lake. Tiled flooring covers the back entry, main floor bath and laundry room. One bedroom with two twin beds and a study complete the main floor plan. An open staircase leads upstairs to three bedrooms and two more full baths. The master bedroom is a generous sized room with a king size bed. The ensuite features a Jacuzzi tub. The finished lower floor offers ping pong, foosball, a card table, a gas fireplace as well as an 18 x 24 bedroom and a full bath. The lower floor has a sliding glass door that exits to the lakeside.
Swim, kayak, paddle board or fish on the lake from May to September. Listen for the call of the loons early in the morning, for the croak of the frogs in the evening, or watch the eagles soar above the north side of the lake on a warm night. Gather around a bonfire at the end of the day to relax and gaze at the stars. Watch for deer moving through the trees down to the lake to drink or gaze at the glorious array of colors during the fall. Ice fish, skate, cross country ski or snowmobile on the hard ice or snow during the cold winter days. Scavenge for mushrooms in the surrounding forests by Mesick during the spring time.

Peaceful haven

The house was perfect for our 3 generations of family. The lake area was quiet with lots of natural wildlife around: herons, loons, songbirds, toads, fish. The grandkids loved it all!

We absolutely loved our stay and truly enjoyed our time. Our large family of 12 including 5 children (4-12) all had our own space which made it so nice. The place is stocked full of everything you would need. The hosts really thought of everything. Communication with hosts was almost immediate with any questions we may have had. Our family had so much fun catching many fish and enjoying the relaxing calmness that Pleasant Lake had to offer!

Great stay!

We had a fantastic time at the property. Stayed for a week with young adult kids and grandma. Home, especially kitchen, was amazingly well stocked: air fryer, electric skillet, electric kettle, coffee maker, every pot/pan/utensil you could want. Beds were nice, plenty of space for our group. Only thing to keep in mind of accessibility to lake for small kids or anyone with mobility issues. It’s a long, hilly walk to the lake from the house.

Lovely!

This house met all of our needs and exceeded our expectations! The kids loved fishing and kayaking and playing in the water. There was ample bedroom and bathroom space for everyone. The kitchen was well set up with everything we needed. The home was clean and just as the photos show. The yard was wonderful, with space for the kids to play and shade to enjoy. We all agreed that we want to return next year!
