The property is at the end of a quiet, dead-end drive. It has frontage on Stamm Lake (a 4½ acre spring-fed pond), and from Stamm, the property line follows a stream which flows year-round down to Bristol Lake, on which the property has 125 feet of frontage. Bristol is a 165-acre all-sports lake and is excellent for fishing, swimming and all manner of watersports. We have a sandy beach which drops-off gradually until it reaches a depth of around 3 feet (appx. 20’ from shore). From there the depth falls-off more quickly, eventually reaching a depth of 45 feet at closer to 100 yards from shore. As such, the beach and lakeshore are relatively-friendly to younger children (although we recommend life jackets for non-swimmers). We have a raft which is anchored in deeper water (very safe for diving), we also have a dock to park a boat or to get young anglers closer to the many bass & bluegill which hover at the drop-off. Between the house & the shore we have a large grassy yard with enough trees to give some comfortable shade in the sunny summer afternoons. We have a fire pit on the beach. The yard is large enough for whiffle-ball, volleyball, croquet or practically any variety of other yard games. The 6 acres of woods have a series of short trails which are fun for a short afternoon stroll. ABOUT THE HOUSE: The house is recently-constructed (completed in 2015), built with premium materials and systems. At appx. 4,300sf, it has 8 bedrooms, 3½ baths and enough beds to sleep 20 (see plans in photo section). Our kitchen has large areas granite countertop, allowing many participants in food preparation. We have both a large and a small refrigerator, a double-oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, ample cabinets and a walk-in pantry. We have a large dining table as well as folding picnic tables and an umbrella table on the deck (which overlook the lake). There are areas to sit & talk on every level. The lower level has a rec room equipped with both a ping-pong and a pool table. This room opens thru 2 sliding doors onto a patio (which also overlooks the lake). A TV room on the upper level is great for kids watching late-night movies. ABOUT THE BRISTOL LAKE COMMUNITY: Bristol Lake offers a wonderful mix of active recreation and quiet relaxation. Many of the property-owners on the lake live here year-round. It is our desire to offer this vacation rental to families which will appreciate the serenity of this community and be respectful of our neighbors. Keeping noise levels low (especially after dark), maintaining slow speeds on the entry drive, and keeping the grounds in good order are all elements of making a visit satisfying to all involved. If you choose to book with us, we ask that you make a commitment to be a good neighbor. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 8 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 3.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - 3 pets total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Thin carpet in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Kayak - Table tennis - Water sports equipment - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 4,300 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/42000000/41270000/41262900/41262801/cd0dc56f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ★ Family FUN • HotTub • FirePit • Game Room • Movie Theater & more!

May 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Quiet lake The property is gorgeous and just as advertised. Top notch furnishings were used throughout the house. Firepit was large and lake was beautiful and surprisingly very quiet for a holiday weekend. There were only a few downsides - there are ALOT of stairs so if you aren’t real mobile then this place is not for you. Also, it’s not real close to anything to do - Battle Creek is about 20-25 minutes south and Hasting is about 20-25 minutes north. Only other downside was that there was ALOT of goose poop all the way down to the beach. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/285a0b0f-9237-4210-bd78-b01e07019583-1748280564172.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/26e78728-df5d-4a73-be93-18ce6ac9ff5a-1748280575879.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4453e97e-b165-4b02-83df-34423f08d0d5-1748280667532.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6eb2d129-5906-4602-8480-97e5f436cff1-1748280665763.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bonnie R.

Though there are plenty of pictures on the site, the majesty of this place was not fully captured. We were wowed when we arrived. Our host was very gracious as well. Highly recommended! ##### Brian H.

The layout of the kitchen and livingroom allowed our family of 14 to be together while playing games or eating at the same time at one table. The kitchen was well stocked. The owner was readily available whenever we had a question. Our family would love to return. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia K.

Games available (pool, ping pong) a lake for boating and swimming. It has it all. Everything is there for you. ##### Patricia K. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregg B.

The kitchen was very well equipped and we found that we had everything that we could have wanted. There was an ample supply of nice linens and the property was well cared for, nicely decorated and clean. I would highly recommend this property to anyone interested in a large group gathering / vacation spot. We all enjoyed the beautiful sunrise over the lake. ##### Gregg B.
