The space

After a day on the water or adventuring in the dunes enjoying all the activities Silver lake has to offer, you may just need a little escape. Right off the main road, your wooded retreat awaits at these two adjoining octagon houses in the trees. The Silver Lake Tree House is accessed by stairs from three decks. On the main floor are two of the three bedrooms and two showers/ bathrooms. Upon entry of the main unit, is the kitchen, dining, sunken conversation fireplace area. The living areas all radiate from the central hub of the fireplace, so you’re always in “Circulation” with an open floor plan and one of the bathroom showers. Down a short hall, In the adjoining unit, Bedroom # 1 has two queen beds, one of which has a full size loft bed overhead. The second bedroom, is through the second bathroom,, at the end of the hall with one queen bed. For the more adventurous, the third bedroom with queen size bed, is up the spiral staircase where the view of Silver Lake dunes is over the Tree Tops! Whether you're looking to relax on the decks, one faces the main road where you can watch the dune buggies go by. The other overlooks the patio fire pit facing the wooded back lot and full size Tennis/PickleBall Court, sit in the sunken fireplace nook with a book, or soak in the hot tub. Also of note is an adjoining lot with (2) RV 50/30 amp hookups for your camper rented in concert with the Tree House for a nominal cost per unit. Your camper will need to be self contained as we have no connecting sewage dump. You can rent an RV for set up and take down by Silver Back RV Rentals. They will fill the water tank and dump the waste water after rental. Silver Lake Rentals rents boats and jet skis. Be advised, the home is NOT ON SILVER LAKE. Rather, a short walk a few cottages down is our Happy Acres HOA private beach. Work on your tan or launch one of four kayaks and paddleboard into beautiful Silver Lake. Don't forget your sun tan lotion and life jackets. We have an assortment of sizes and beach wagons to cart your accessories. You also have your option of pristine Lake Michigan beaches within 3 miles or Silver Lake State Park within a quarter mile..

Vrbo Review #1

We had an excellent stay at the Tree House. We were there right after Christmas and the house was decorated beautifully for the holiday! It was like walking into Hallmark movie! The host also left us a welcome bottle of wine, sugar cookies to bake if we wanted to and a tray of hot cocoa fixings! Made for a dream holiday trip! Communication was 5 star! We were traveling during the winter which is always a risk in Michigan, but our host sent us weather updates and checked on us before we left since a storm came in. She offered to give us extra time if needed to wait out the storm! I felt very cared for and pampered! Our host also gave us some great ideas for things to do in the area. We took her advice and had an excellent time! We visited the dunes and nearby indoor water park. It was such a great trip, we’re hoping to visit again in the summer!
