The Lake House - Sleeps 8

The “Lake House” with its “butterfly roof” was designed by the head of the Department of Architecture at the University of Illinois and constructed in 1958. An effort has been made to preserve as many architectural features and furnishings as possible from the 1950s, while at the same time updating everything to meet the needs and standards of the 2020s.

The house is surrounded by over 200 acres of private property, permanently preserved as a natural area with the guidance of the Land Conservancy of West Michigan. This includes over 1100 feet of frontage on Hamlin Lake, along with diverse forested and meadow parcels, marshes, swamps, ponds and streams. This provides natural habitats for a wide diversity of plants and wildlife. In addition, there are several miles of private roads and paths to explore on foot or by bicycle.

Great Location
We loved the property and the family feel of the cottage. The private roads through the woods provided beautiful walks…the views of the Ludington State Park (across the lake) are amazing. Above all, we really liked the cottage feel…this is a family property and we felt privileged to be invited to enjoy it.

Property had nice number of bedrooms, Great Lake access, well kept up, not too far from town, quiet location and nice neighbors. Only real issue was the AC could not keep up with cooling the house, I don't think there is any insulation.
