Luxury Gun Lake 4 Bed 2 Bath Home W/paddleboards/kayaks, Free Wi-fi

Sprawling year round 1500 sq ft 4 bed 2 bath waterfront ranch style home that sleeps up to 8 adults with 12 people total, and no more than 3 vehicles total allowed (per township short term rental rules). There are 2 rooms with a king size bed, 1 room woth 2 Queen size beds and one room with 1 Queen size bed, all on the shortest channel of famous all-sports 2680 acre Gun Lake, the largest inland lake in West Michigan. This is the perfect quiet vacation getaway and great place make memories! All you need to bring are your food, clothing and personal toiletries (toothbrushes, toothpaste, shavers, etc), fishing gear if you fish, a boat if warm season and you have a boat, and you're good to go!

Gun Lake is extremely popular for competition fishing, pleasure boating, skiing, tubing, and swimming off a boat or at one of the public beaches. There is a nice yard and 2 decks as well as a 10' deep 40' long boardwalk to enjoy the waterfront lifestyle, fish with poles or nets, feed the ducks, geese, sparrows, sea gulls, swans, watch turtles, kayak, paddle board, or take your boat out and enjoy the lake life every day!

This custom home features a sunken master bedroom with an accessible bathroom for all guests even though it is in the master suite, it is on the same level as the rest of the bedrooms and no steps in or out of it. So if accessibility is needed just know the only steps inside the house at all or two steps down into the master bedroom at self. The sunken master suite, living room, kitchen and waterfront bedroom all have cathedral ceilings and both bathrooms have solid surface stone (Granite & Marble) countertops and the master has a luxury Italian Tile shower as well.

The living room is spacious and the main floor features all new super insulated cathedral ceilings. Every bedroom has a flat screen TV. The entire main floor living room/dining room/kitchen has luxury vinyl plank flooring, and all bedrooms have new carpeting.

The kitchen features underlit maple cabinetry with glazed cabinets, all new stainless steel appliances, and almost anything you can think of at your own home, from the waffle maker to the griddle for pancakes, to the coffee maker, to silverware and all the spices and such for cooking so you don't need to bring all of that, just the food!

There are several decks and also a patio set and grill for enjoying the evening with friends! There is a 40' waterfront boardwalk and seawall is perfect for fishing off of, or mooring your boat whether you own or rent one from one of the boat rental business on the lake.

The new laundry area off the entry hallway, brand new front end loading washer and dryer as well as detergent and fabric softener supplied for you, so no need to ever visit a laundromat while staying here. We also have everything like washcloths, body shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, etc.

There is Charter Spectrum internet and high speed Wi-Fi so you can watch streaming movies on the other TV's in the bedrooms or get work done while everyone is out on the lake in the warm months or skiing or ice fishing in the winter.

For Spring/Summer/Fall guests there are also 2 paddle boards and 2 one person kayaks that are shared with the house next door owned by the same owner! There is also a fire pit area great for cooking hot dogs and marshmallows. Expecting guests? Not a problem! One vehicle can have the carport and several other vehicles will fit in the parking area as well.

For winter guests the ice can be great for skating and ice fishing if it has been below freezing at least 2 straight weeks before your stay, just make sure it is solid and take all necessary precautions like wearing a provided life vest over your coat just to ensure safety. Also the check in time in the winter can be flexible on dates when there is nobody scheduled to stay at the house the night before so we don’t have a same-day turnover. For those planning to ski at one of the nearby ski resorts, just know that by car Bittersweet Ski Resort is only 22 miles or 28 minutes away, and Timber Ridge is only 26 miles or 34 minutes away. As long as the nights are below freezing these resorts make their own snow and usually are open and everyone has a great time.

The property Location is 12970 Hazel Dr, Wayland MI 49348 if you want to see where it is on a map. This is often helpful to know for mapping and distance purposes when traveling.

Spring Fling 2025

We had a great time on Hazel Drive. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Everything was clean and comfortable, and the owner came over right away to put up an umbrella on the patio. Good restaurant just down the road (Russo) and an Ice cream shop with a great breakfast very close.

We had an amazing stay at this property and the booking next door. Everything was seamless, from the booking to communicating with the host to the check-in and out. We got to use the kayaks and paddle boards, so fun! We even extended the stay last-minute without any delays from the host. Thanks for making the trip a wonderful experience. I highly recommend working with John.

Nice lakehouse

This was a place close to our son's wedding venue and it was perfect for the week. Right on the canal and Gun Lake is a great lake to be on. Only wish was to have our own boat for the days we didn't have activities going on. Well stocked and everything was clean. Owner was easy to contact and a quick responder.

Great stay for friends for wedding at baypointe

Booked for my dad and his friends from Europe. They truly enjoyed having homes directly next to one another and being able to be close. They loved the amenities on the water as well. The Host was great with communication and kind enough to allow an early check in to allow family members to make it to rehearsal on time. Would book again

Clean, Spacious and Convenient

My husband and I stayed 2 nights to attend a wedding nearby. The house was perfect with lots of space, very clean, beautiful little yard on the water and check in/out was a breeze. I found the place well appointed with everything we could possibly need and really wish we had time to stay a few more days and just relax. The primary bedroom bed was SO comfortable and the fire pit in the yard a really nice touch for a cool evening. I loved the area as well, lots of fun spots to dine out and just a very friendly atmosphere. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful house!

The house was very clean and spacious. The pictures do not do it justice. The property was right on the water and it was great that there were paddle boards, kayaks, and life jackets available to use. The water right outside the house was very murky to swim, but that didn't matter with the paddle boards (and previous comments mentioned that so we knew it going in). Check in and out was very easy and John was great. He was available if we would have needed him and very responsive to messages. Rules and tips were clearly stated and available in the house. Overall, great stay with the family!

Everything you could want!

We stayed at John’s rental on Gun Lake ( a canal lot) for a wedding weekend. The home was immaculate and every detail was covered. Right down to small fans for white noise in each room!:)We also rented the amazing pontoon and had a wonderful get acquainted trip around the lake with John. He was so kind and warm it felt like we knew him. He even gave our son turn by turn directions over the phone when his google map went out! Definitely recommend. PS. We toured his other rental next door. Just as wonderful with room for a few more if you need it.

Close to Bay Pointe

The home is nicely furnished and comfortable. It as super close to our wedding events. Suggestions to stock some generic shampoo, add nite light to bathroom with no windows and supply a small starter amount of basic coffee maybe Folgers would be appreciated. The clock in living room is an hour off which confused us a couple times. There are leaves and trash that greet you at the front door need to be cleaned up before guests arrive. We paid a hefty cleaning fee and were asked to strip beds. Start towels and dishwasher and empty trash.

It was super nice to beable to moor our 27ft tritoon in the channel right behind the house, so everyone could get on the boat easily and out to the lake easily!
