About this property
Peaceful Retreat for Families/Couples/Groups - All Sports Lake w/ Kayaks & SUP's
The Pleasant Lake Residence hosts a spacious and airy floor plan. A wood burning, stone fireplace graces the 18 x 24 foot family room. A large dining/kitchen area features a generous kitchen island, oak hardwood floors and overlooks Pleasant Lake. Tiled flooring covers the back entry, main floor bath and laundry room. One bedroom with two twin beds and a study complete the main floor plan. An open staircase leads upstairs to three bedrooms and two more full baths. The master bedroom is a generous sized room with a king size bed. The ensuite features a Jacuzzi tub. The finished lower floor offers ping pong, foosball, a card table, a gas fireplace as well as an 18 x 24 bedroom and a full bath. The lower floor has a sliding glass door that exits to the lakeside. Swim, kayak, paddle board or fish on the lake from May to September. Listen for the call of the loons early in the morning, for the croak of the frogs in the evening, or watch the eagles soar above the north side of the lake on a warm night. Gather around a bonfire at the end of the day to relax and gaze at the stars. Watch for deer moving through the trees down to the lake to drink or gaze at the glorious array of colors during the fall. Ice fish, skate, cross country ski or snowmobile on the hard ice or snow during the cold winter days. Scavenge for mushrooms in the surrounding forests by Mesick during the spring time. There are many outdoor activities for families, groups and couples to enjoy in the Cadillac area. Amenities at the Pleasant Lake Residence include three kayaks, two paddle boards, a small fishing boat, and a handful of sleds. In the greater Cadillac area, there are a variety of activities for all seasons and age groups. Caberfae Peaks Ski and Golf Resort is 20 miles from the property. Crystal Mountain Resort Ski and Golf Resort is 30 miles from the property. Popular golf courses include the Eldorado Golf Course and the Evergreen. The Manistee, Muskegon and Pine Rivers all have canoe liveries for hours of fun by raft, kayak or canoe. Adventure Island on M115 offers go carts, batting cages, bummer boats, mini golf, a water slide, an arcade and ice cream. The White Pine Trail offers a paved trail for bicycling from Cadillac to Tustin. Five miles due west of the Pleasant Lake Residence is a trail head for miles of snowmobile trails. The Gopherwood Society holds folksy music performances at the Elks Lodge in downtown Cadillac during the school year. Fall Color Tour Train Rides leave from Cadillac and travel to Boyne in the beginning of October.

We greatly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, our hostess gracious (We celebrated Christmas here and our hostess set up a Christmas Tree for us). The house had space for our family to come together and yet have private space for reading or projects. The Hot tub was a lot of fun. We made "Snow Angels" in the yard and then got back in the hot tub. Lots of fun and laughter. Yes, we would stay in this house again.
The house was great and we had plenty of space for 6 adults and 6 children. Plenty of supplies like coffee filters and even laundry detergent. One suggestion would to bring beach towels if you are going swimming or using hot tub. Towels were provided but we had to wash/dry frequently. Super responsive host and was helpful with questions around restaurants and even tips for our ski day.
Very well decorated and comfortable. Plenty of room for our large family reunion. Ping pong and the hot tub provided lots of entertainment. Very nice setting, big yard. Kayaks were appreciated.
Wonderful property! Plenty of space, excellent amenities, perfect distance from town, peaceful. Everything we could’ve asked for! Thank you so much for allowing to stay in your home.
We enjoy side by side riding the snow mobile trails in Michigan. This property is close to the trails and accommodated our needs. The home was clean and it is a beautiful home. We loved our stay The fish were biting to.
We had a great stay with 9 adults and 4 kids 5-12. The place had plenty of room to spread out, was extremely clean, and was stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely re-book if in the area again.
Fantastic property on a quiet lake. Great for our family vacation with teens/young adults. Lots of space and downstairs rec room perfect for our kids staying up late while the parents slept.
House was excellent in accommodating 6 adults and 3 young children. Well stocked. Comfortable. Fit us all easily. Hot tub was a plus. Sandy play and beach area not too deep for kids. Albie very responsive regarding questions.
Beautiful property. Exactly as advertised. Communication was consistent and it fit our needs perfectly. Golf trip with 8 guys and the house had plenty of space. Would recommend.
We had a great week. The house was clean and the beds were very comfortable. We spent most of week right there at the beach. The grandkids loved the sand and the parents loved the shallow beach. We really recommend this property.
Our extended family thoroughly enjoy our stay. The home is roomy, well stocked and clean. The grounds were great as well. Communication with the owner was terrific. I can't think of a single concern or complaint, highly recommend.
This house was big enough to give each of us privacy if we wanted it!
The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The teens loved the games, and the room downstairs to be by themselves! We loved our stay at this beautiful home!
The space suited 10 adult men very well for our leadership retreat.The fireplace was an amazing addition to the large living room/gathering space.The huge dining room table was perfect for us to break bread together.
This is our 3rd time staying and we have enjoyed each stay.
Gets better each time!!!
Owner has updated bathroom upstairs very nice.
Also having boats to use on site is fantastic.
We already book our next stay!!
We used this home for our men’s ministry leadership retreat. We had ten men and this home provided the space and amenities to make for a relaxing weekend.
Nice big house on a quiet lake with a beach area that is great for small children. We weren't impressed with the Cadillac area but the house was comfortable and the owner is responsive.
Family wedding brought us to Cadillac, we were extremely lucky to find this property to house our large family. The home is beautiful, extremely clean, perfect location! The home included paddle boards and Kayla! Family wants to schedule another visit in the future
What an amazing lake house - perfect for a large family!!
It was our third year staying at this amazing lake house. The house is so spacious, clean, well furnished and decorated it makes it easy to enjoy yourself. The available kayaks and paddle boards were a great bonus. Our wonderful family-filled memories will last a lifetime. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
We very much enjoyed our stay! The house was even more open and spacious in person. There were plenty of bedrooms and beds for the 4 couples that stayed here. The house was equipped with everything we needed! Unfortunately we had chilly weather the weekend we were here, so we weren't able to utilize the water crafts or swim, but the lake was beautiful. We are already talking about returning!
The property was very clean and a delight as soon as we walked in the door. Our host, Albie was very easy to communicate with. We all had worries that the property would not be as good as the pictures, but the pictures don't even do it justice. We all had such a great time.
A very nice house and the location was wonderful for our family of 8 - 6 adults and 2 children. We loved the kayaks and paddle boards and the little beach area was perfect for the two kiddos ages 4 and 6.
We enjoyed meals together at the large dinning room table as well as the large picnic tables on the deck.
We enjoyed many day trips (1 hour away) to Frankfort, Old Mission peninsula and Elk Rapids along with blueberry picking and Mitchell state park that were about 15 minutes away.
We also enjoyed the wide variety of board games provided
We would definitely come back and we will recommend this house to other family members!😊
This was the third time that our group has stayed in this lovely, accommodating property. We were 8 adults this time but we've had up to 11 people (including 2 teens) previously and always found the house spacious and comfortable. Albertena is a gracious, helpful host. The kitchen, dining and living areas have great flow and the game area downstairs was a blast. Nice to see some soft, furnishing changes and the basement fireplace since our last visit.. a really great stay! Much as we love winter activity here, we really must come back and experience it during warmer seasons as the lake looks like it could be great fun. Thanks again, Albie!
We visited with two sets of grandparents, 2 adults and 3 children ages 4 to 7. It was perfect in the following ways:
- kitchen so well appointed we cooked and served a variety of meals; large pans, quantities of tableware and glassware
- easy to cook together as a group with large kitchen island
- indoor table that easily held our group of 10
- outdoor picnic table seating for 12-14 with umbrellas
- additional seating on large deck
- huge fire pit for adult fires after bedtime, wood and fire starters provided
- sand beach, shallow water up to dock
- great fishing off dock for little ones and grandfather
- kayaks for 2 people, small size for kids
- nice lawn for play
- two living rooms so kids had an art/play center
- bedrooms for all, no parents had to sleep with kids
- plenty of bathrooms, toilet paper for the week
- great, thick towels
- plenty of contact with owner prior and during stay; very open to help with anything
We had an incredible week--Cadillac has great things to do, good parks for playgrounds, bike trail, hikes and restaurants when we didn't want to cook. The location was perfect for our needs.
