Top Independence Lake Hotel Reviews

Lakeside Fee-lings on Strawberry Lake kayaks Included or bring boat with you.

10/10 Excellent

"Lakeview was amazing. Beautiful sunrises and Moons at night over the water.Location was perfect for Strawberry and Zukey lake and located right next to the entrance to the river to go to the other lakes. Watching the seaplane take off was an extra thrill. l I have found the 4 sets of chain of lakes in Michigan offer so much. Highly recommend you travel to see them and this place would be perfect to rent to see them. Zukey lake tavern is a must stop and see. Established in 1920 and then closed due to prohibition opened again in 1930 and has remained an on the water stop by boat or land. Neighbors were very friendly and helpful in advice to navigate the area and lakes and also helped with the boat and trailer to get on the property before and after launch. Nice little community. Excellent yard for family fun and activities. Enjoyed our stay and a special thank you to Michelle for her recommendations as well and quick responses.."

Love The 8 Lakes Life!

10/10 Excellent

"The lake front is shallow, so great for kids. We went with 9 Adults at any one time and we never felt like there wasn't enough space, except maybe on the couch, we could do with one more couch segment. Kitchen is bigger and there was a lot of supplies either from the hosts originally or people who have stayed. Wish the beds had headboards and different mattresses, but that did not detract from the overall enjoyment. It was nice and we absolutely would stay again!"
