Our home is a get away for all seasons. The fall colors are magical in Traverse City and on Long Lake. Our guests also love snowmobiling on our lake and ice fishing in the winter. Our hot tub is available year round to make your visit extra special.
Villa Azul is a place where you can truly disconnect from the daily grind and focus on what matters most: spending time with the people you care about. From relaxing in the hot tub to playing basketball or simply soaking in the beauty of the lake, you’ll find plenty of ways to unwind and have fun.
At Villa Azul, the lake is right at your doorstep. There are no steep steps to the water, making this a great home for a multi-generational stay. Spend your days lounging on our private sandy beach, take a kayak out for a peaceful paddle, or fish off the private dock. In the evenings, relax in the hot tub, gather around the fire pit for s’mores and stories, or enjoy the stunning sunset views from the expansive deck. When the weather is cooler, enjoy a ping pong or pool competition in our heated garage. Play VR games in the kids room, or have a Karaoke night. We’ve designed our home to make your time here effortless and enjoyable, with a focus on both comfort and fun.
