About this property

Hemlock Lake House

This is a wonderful, spacious family vacation getaway house, right on beautiful, spring-fed Hemlock Lake! Custom built in 2005 with 3,000 plus sq. footage, it has granite kitchen countertops, stainless appliances, sturdy dining table that seats 12, large kitchen island with seating, wrap-around outdoor deck with table & chairs, massive stone fireplace, and full finished basement with pool table, kitchenette, full bathroom, and queen bed sleeping area.

There is a lovely view of the lake from master bedroom suite and from most of the house, with comfortable beds, large bathrooms, and a separate laundry room. Guests may use the board games, kayaks, row boat, and canoe that come with the house. Enjoy an outdoor fire in our newly renovated fire pit area.

This would also be a nice spot for a business, church, or large family retreat. It is a quiet and relaxing home, with many opportunities for water sports and other local activities.

Lovely Spot
Stayed four nights with my husband and two adult children for an event at Hillsdale College and we were very happy! Communication and instructions were great. The property is spacious and comfortable with a beautiful view of the lake. Kitchen is well-equipped. Bedrooms are comfy. Bathrooms are up-to-date. There is plenty to do at the house with the lake and kayaks and tons of board games and puzzles. Neighborhood is quiet and safe. Proximity to Hillsdale and Jonesville is an easy 15-20 minute drive. We would definitely stay here again!

Our family had a wonderful stay in your property. The timing of the year was perfect… We had only one evening of wonderful, thunderstorms, and light rains… The view from the property overlooking the lake was spectacular. The property was in great condition and was exactly as described. Thank you again.

Beautiful Adventure
We were hosting our daughters wedding at a nearby venue. This home was an incredible landing place for all of the family from all over the US to stay in one place and be together. We love this home away from home.
