Each suite includes: ✔ Private queen bedroom ✔ Separate living room ✔ Smart TV with Roku ✔ Rainfall shower ✔ Mini fridge & microwave ✔ Coffee maker ✔ Fiber Internet
Guests can enjoy shared outdoor fire pits, open yard space, and easy access to nearby Lake Michigan beaches, scenic drives along the Tunnel of Trees, and ferry access for day trips to Mackinac Island.
Whether you`re planning a relaxing weekend getaway, a family vacation, a midweek remote work escape, or an outdoor adventure, Spirit Lake Retreat provides a peaceful and convenient home base in Northern Michigan. Please don`t move patio furniture. Please don`t take bath towels to the beach. Four towels and 8 coffee pods are provided per stay, regardless of duration of booking.
