About this property

Spacious lakefront home on peaceful Cable Lake.

  • Summerwind is a gorgeous and quiet home nestled on Cable lake in Sister Lakes Michigan. Cable Lake is framed beautifully by this inviting updated ranch. Large windows let natural light and the views of the lake pour into the main living area. The new deck, accessed by French doors adds outdoor living space, and the open concept of the home allows for lake views from the kitchen, dining and living areas. The lower level walkout opens to a beautifully landscaped lawn that slopes gently to the sandy bottom lake.

    Summer Wind is located on 90 acre Cable Lake, which is a private non-motor lake in Sister Lakes, MI. This quiet, clean lake is perfect for stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, paddle boating, sailing, windsurfing, canoeing, and swimming. The fishing is outstanding. There are 6 other lakes all within minutes which provide a variety of environments. Most are motor lakes and boat rentals are available through local vendors.

Great property on private no motor lake.

We have been staying at the same place every year for about 5 years now. Love the location and the owner as they are always updating things around the house. The communication is always really good. Have not had any major issues with them.View is very nice of the lake. Plenty of parking. Plenty of deck and patio space. Large open floor plan for our family. If your taking a look in the area, make sure to check out this place.

Great lake house family vacation

We really enjoyed our week at the Summerwind cottage. There was plenty of space for our large family of 7 adults and 3 children. The lower level was great for the older kids who also enjoyed swimming and fishing on the property. Everyone enjoyed the kayaks and beachfront fire pit. Frank was very responsive when there was a problem with the internet and had a repair technician out first thing Monday morning. We'd definitely stay here again.

Quiet setting, great swim area for kids

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We didn’t realize when booking that Cable Lake is a no motor lake, but it was great, so peaceful. Made full use of kayaks on property. Big deck, open main floor, plenty of beds and baths for our group of 9. Biggest complaint would be not enough plates and silverware. Best to bring paper/plastic.

The overall stay was great. The interior of the home was extremely clean. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and two infants. I gave the home a good rating instead of a perfect rating because the walk out patio area needed attention and the upper deck area also needed attention I broomed the deck and walk out patio area. I cleaned the patio/deck furniture. This included the tables and chairs. We enjoyed the fire pit area each night The lake and sandy beach were perfect for recreation. We all took the kayaks out on the lake. My husband took the row boat out and came back with some fish for supper. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Quiet Lake

Excellent property on a quiet no-sports lake. Interior looks recently renovated and was very clean. Outside space is large with lots of seating for everyone. Lake access was easy and has a nice sandy bottom to wade out for a swim or to launch the kayaks. Surrounding area has good amount of restaurants, bars, grocery stores, etc.....about 1 hour from Holland, Saugatauk, 30 min to St.Joseph and 10 min from Dowagiac. Would highly recommend if you don't need a power boat to make your vacation.

Fun House, Lame Water Front, House Unsafe For Babies

Pros. The house was quite big with a ton of fun stuff to do. Board games. Puzzles, air hockey, ping pong, fosball, ect. The lake is a very peaceful lake. Cons. Every other house on the lake had a dock, a floating dock, paddle boards, and lily pad. This place only had old kayaks. The stair way is in the middle of the living area with no possible way to put up a baby gate because the railing is rounded. Summary. The actual house was very nice and could appeal more to people that prefer to just look at the lake.

This is a nice house on a clean quiet lake with a nice beachfront. We spent every day in the water and enjoyed using the kayaks. The layout of the house is nice for extended families. We had also rented another house on the lake and cooked at the other house so can’t really speak to how well the kitchen was stocked. The gas grill was not usable due to buildup inside but there is a charcoal grill which we did use. And doesn’t most food taste better on a charcoal grill anyway? The deck is big with lots of outdoor seating and steps to the water. We hope to be back again.
