Aaahh....Encapsulated by the four (4) seasons we experience in our Pure Michigan lies your Endless Summer opportunity with the privacy of an indoor pool and hot tub, all while overlooking Van Etten Lake.  Yes, even your furry family member (dog) is welcome to tag along as you spend your time together having fun throughout the year and rejuvenating.  Spacious and comfortable for up to seven (7) of your family and friends; There is even air conditioning to capture another level of ease with your time together.  Here the kitchen blends into the living room, and you never need to lose sight of Van Etten Lake as you traverse between the rooms. Surprisingly, there is both a sunroom and screened-in porch at Endless Summer.  The sunroom provides an ideal way for you to remain at a comfortable temperature, while at the same time, feel a closer connection to gaze at Van Etten Lake. The screened in porch area is ideal for capturing the summer breeze, without the fuss of mosquitos.

There is even a separate work space (yes, with Wifi) if you must tap back into the office for a bit.  Then, when you turn in for the evening, crawling into a King bed with an attached bath, plus a balcony overlooking the lake, allows you to take that needed time to give yourself ample privacy and space with your special someone.

We do require all of your guests will need to sign a waiver to use the pool prior to arrival.  Since this a 100% private pool, for just this home, please keep in the forefront of your mind that there is NO lifeguard on duty. Only you and your (6) chosen family/friends are welcome.  There are both changing rooms and a bathroom on the pool level. 

This home is older, and while unique and eccletic in many ways, it's decor is simple. It was built as a Pure Michigan getaway to enjoy year-round. Come experience an Endless Summer!
