About this house rental
The Lake House is a beautiful, clean, 2100 square foot home on the North Shore of West Twin Lake, an all-sports lake with clear water, sandy bottom, and a gradual entry from the shoreline that is not deeper than 3-4 feet for a significant distance. This is a lake perfect for younger swimmers and advanced tubers or water skiers, as well as a great spot to fish. Fish in the lake include walleye, pike, perch, bass, and sunfish. A private dock with tie-off anchors is provided for your jet skis or boat. A paddle boat, kayaks, and paddle boards are provided for all guests. Pontoon rentals are available from a nearby marina.
The North Shore provides the best views of every sunrise and sunset! West Twin Lake, at over 1300 acres, is the largest-and the best!-of the Twin Lakes in Lewiston.
Whether you enjoy your morning coffee on the lakefront deck and listen to the loons call, or make s’mores in the fire pit while stargazing, this is the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful family vacation. This home boasts 100 feet of lakefront on a private 1.35 acre lot. The original cottage was built in 1945 with knotty pine ceilings and log walls, with a 1991 update and lakefront addition that includes a great room with cathedral ceilings, fireplace, and expansive floor to ceiling windows. The master bedroom suite also provides a gorgeous lakefront view, and has a private master bathroom with Jacuzzi tub. New furniture this year includes the great room sectional sleeper, a full sized sleeper sofa in the reading nook, king bed, dining table with bench, and a game table.
This home is equipped with everything a family will need to make memories on the lake! The spacious lawn is open for kids to play, or just to run right into the water!
Lewiston is minutes away with shopping and restaurants, and it is only a short drive to golf in nearby Gaylord or Garland Resort,
This home can be booked for weekends May-Father's Day and after Labor Day, with a week's stay required from mid-June until Labor Day. Please inquire if interested in booking just a long weekend starting with Labor Day through the winter and spring season.

Beautiful property for a family get together our grandchildren 18-5 years old. The kids enjoyed having a yard to play games in and not just sand. The shallowness of the lake was great for the young as well as teens. The house was exceptionally clean and supplied with all you need.

Enjoyed our week at the lake house with all the comforts of home. The owners are wonderful hosts, the lake is perfect for swimming and water sports, and the house is well-stocked with everything you might need. This is our second stay and we will definitely be back!

I’m embarrassed of my handwriting after reading all of those nice messages in the guest book so I’ll type mine lol… we were so impressed w the accommodations and how comfy and clean this home is. Definitely agree w everyone that this feels like a home away from home. We just bought property in Lewiston and wanted to stay for a long weekend and check out the area more, and very happy with our new “neighbors” Would love to experience this lake house in the summer! Thank you so much!

Very nice place with everything you need for a nice stay on the lake. Firewood and some water toys included. The master bedroom is a wonderful location to wake up and enjoy the beautify view of the lake. Great beach for little ones because it is very shallow for a long distance out from shoreline (like a splash pool). Great communication from the owner.

We enjoyed the perfect up north getaway. The lake house was everything we'd hoped for and more.
It was just as described had everything we would need from towels, linens, and space - the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and everything was clean and organized. The location is near a local grocery store(less than 10minutes) so very easy to make a run if you need anything at all.
We had a bonfire every night, admired the stars, the songs from the loons,made smores, and used the grill.
My husband played a round of golf at garland and we took a day trip to ocquenoc falls the rest of the time we just relaxed at our perfect lake house and enjoyed the views. It was our first time in Lewiston and it is just what up north is all about WE LOVED IT.

The house offer the perfect lake experience. We have a 9 and 11 year old. They loved using the two paddle boards, lily pad and paddle boat. The adults did too! Very shallow lake. Great for kids and beginner water-skiers. Thank you for an enjoyable week away.

This VRBO was perfect for our family vacation. We had 6 children between the ages of 7 to 14 and they all had a blast. Lots of water toys for all of them. The Lake is very clean and does not get deep for a long way out. There is a sandy beach area where the kids can play. The cottage is set with a large front yard for outdoor games. The cottage has ample space so that 11 of us did not feel like we were running into each other. We used all of the beds including the couch pull outs. The kitchen is amply supplied with dishes, pots and pans, crock pot, silverware and a microwave. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it. The owners are right next door should you need anything and very nice.

Had a wonderful time visiting family in northern Michigan. The cabin was perfect for our growing family, with plenty of room at the table to eat together and play games! The winter landscape was beautiful on the lake! Would love to see it in the summer too!
Thank you

This vacation property was the best VRBO I have stayed at and I have stayed at many. The owners have a well equipped home with all the comforts of home plus a few toys i.e., kayaks, paddleboards and paddle boat. We only used the kayaks; however, if warmer we would have used them all. My wife and I look forward to returning !

West Twin 2022
This is an awesome property. The yard is great, the lake lovely, the Lake House clean, well maintained, many great amenitities--dish washer, grill, washing machine--all top notch. Our only issues were the floor layout and the 3rd bedroom. The 3rd bedroom looks in the listing to have both a double bed and bunk--it does not. It is a bunk bed which the lower level is double. However, because of the room size this room comfortable sleeps 2 children. Also, the master bath is very nice but accessible only through the master bedroom. If your party is 6 guests or less, this is a FIVE star , A+ rental. With 6 or more the sleeping gets more complicated as the sofa beds are in common areas. Also, there are plenty of beach , kitchen and bathroom towels. The view of the lake is spectacular and I recommend you seriously consider renting this property.

Great visit!
We had a wonderful time! My grandkids loved the lake and beach, and had our crew been older we would’ve played cornhole, in the very generous yard😊. The beds were comfy, and the kitchen was well equipped. We have reserved the same two weeks for next year.

Lakeside retreat
Our family enjoyed our time at the cabin. Enjoyed swimming in the lake, using the boats and campfires. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans. Everything was clean. If you don’t want to run the heat at night, you might consider bringing a few extra blankets. Plenty of towels and beach towels available. Front yard was great for games and the children running around.

This house was the perfect home-base for our up North ski vacation between Christmas and New Years. The house is 25 minutes to Treetops and Otsego, about an hour to Boyne, so we really liked the proximity to the resorts we planned to ski at. Everyone had plenty of space, the beds and other furniture were clean, good quality, and comfy. The fully equipped kitchen made cooking a breeze. We were grateful to have smart flat screen TVs to watch Bowl games, and the internet worked well as I had some remote work to do during our stay. This is a lovely home that I would very much recommend to any family.

Magical Christmas memories were made at this beautiful rental! From start, owner Sandra, responded and was available. We walked into this lovely rental all decorated for Christmas. The fireplace in great room offered the “homey” experience along with layout of home with view of lake. This home offered all the amenities of home, close to restaurants and store, and was extremely clean and well decorated! Full kitchen offered home cooked meals as well. We are looking forward to renting this little gem again!

Gorgeous Lake Close to Northern Adventures
Everything was well put together, from check-in, to communication with the owner! The house is on a beautiful lake with views from the living room and MBR. Close to Lewiston which has a grocery store, and other amenities. We used this house as a base camp for our hunting trip. Well equipped for numerous people. The kitchen is great and has all the cooking stuff you need. Please give this home a shot!
