The Lake Cabins Resort provides a rustic getaway with modern amenities for your hiking, biking or boating vacation. The resort accommodations include the Lake House and 6 log cabins. along with complimentary use of our kayaks and paddle boards. Our resort has 100 ft. of beachfront along all sport, 617 acre Fife Lake, which is known for its great fishing and water sports. A short drive to Traverse City, Kalkaska and Cadillac put Fife Lake in the center of it all, with the Boardman River to the north and the Manistee River to the south. Whether you are looking for a getaway for two, or a place to host a large gathering, The Lake Cabins Resort has something to fit your needs.

The resort was built in the early 40’s and has lots of local history with the people and families that have enjoyed the resort in years past. We have restored the full log cabins with new kitchens and many upgrades that make for a great vacation spot. Fife Lake was voted best inland lake in northern Michigan in 2014.

Our pristine beach is a great place to relax and soak up some sun. You can feel comfortable with the kids swimming off our beach as the water is shallow to the end of our dock. Boat rentals are available should you wish to tour the lake and find the eagles nests or loon’s nests.

The house is 4 bedrooms and 2 baths with a full kitchen upstairs and downstairs with a maximum accommodation of 12 guest for the home.

We were very pleased with the location and amenities of the property. My suggestions for improving are to clean up the grounds by pulling/ spraying weeds and use a blower on the steps to the beach. Upgrade the furniture in living rooms... those futons are not very comfortable for TV watching. Paint the heater in upstairs bathroom and also the vanity. We enjoyed our stay and appreciate being there to enjoy the beautiful lake.

We stayed in the lake house which is 4 bedroom 2 bath with 6 adults and 5 kids. Very comfortable stay with two pull out couches on each floor plus one room had a bunk bed. Great patio area to sit out with a drink at sunset with a beach area below and a firepit for marshmellows. We really had a grear time and our hosts were really wonderful. Plus a great location within 30 minutes of a lot of sites and Traverse City.

We rented a cabin and the lake house for our extended family. The view and the lake were wonderful. The host was very helpful and responsive, staying right in the property in one of the cabins. The ductless air conditioning worked great. Very quiet, but very efficient. Plenty to do on the lake, but quite far from “tourist” towns for exploring. The cabin was very basic, but provided the extra beds and toilet we needed.

Fife lake is a family friendly area with the lake small and shallow enough to be great for kids. The guest house was large enough to sleep everyone in the family making it a great experience!

The lake was very relaxing and peaceful. Our granddaughters enjoyed fishing with grandpa and dad. We enjoyed boating and enjoyed the pontoon as well. Weather was good for the most part. On days we couldn't be outside we enjoyed baking and playing games. We had a great time creating memories with our family. The week went way to fast. The owners were great. Thanks for pointing us to the eagle nest !

Family Reunion

Family Reunion

Jeff and Beckey's property was perfect for our family reunion. We rented the house and all of the cabins and each family had their own space - it was perfect. The house and cabins have everything you need and everything was spotless! We spent lots of time swimming in the lake, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The little kids had fun playing in the beach and shallow water area. The outside area around the cabins was perfect for eating meals together, outdoor movie night, 80's night, and talking around the fire pit. We ventured into Traverse City and visited the Sleeping Bear Dunes national park. We highly recommend this property!

My family group first time in Fife lake and it couldn't be better. We had a great time in the main house which was perfect for our 12 people group. The house has amazing views of the lake and it is comfortable and well equipped. We did kayaking and paddle boarding. Jeff was a great host!

We booked for 6 adults and 3 kids under 5. House was big enough for all of us comfortably. We were sad to learn on check in that the A/C in the main living area went out shortly before we came because of a storm and wouldn't be fixed. REst of house (bedrooms and lower level had A/C. Owners were kind enough to grant a small refund due tho this inconvenience. It did get extremely hot the week we were there and couldnt use that area of the cabin from late afternoon until morning, so we appreciated the gesture. We had been told before arrival tht rental boat was also out due to a repair needed. WE were able to rent a very nice boat through H2O sports and that was wonderful. We would definitely consider renting again, the lake location is a hidden gem.

We enjoyed 4 beautiful weather days here. The paddleboards, kayaks, and canoe were used daily. We rented the pontoon boat for a few hours and we could tie up the boat that we brought. Even though there are two kitchens, we only used one which was well stocked with dishes. The separate deck porches were good for either sun or shade and we enjoyed a beach fire each night.

This was our second year staying at this location. The first year we had a smaller cabin. This year we stayed at the large house on the lake. It was perfect for our group of 6! The house is awesome and has beautiful views! The weather was a little chilly one day but hey, we live in Michigan. Perfect evening to bundle up in our sweatshirts for a bonfire on the beach :) Our group took the kayaks out the next morning to the beach in town and got ice cream and we rented the boat and enjoyed an awesome afternoon on the lake. We cannot say enough great things about this property and the owner, Jeff. He always goes out of his way to make sure our stay is awesome! We will be back again next year!

Much needed vacation time!

Much needed vacation time!

This was the first time we stayed at this property. We were in the waterfront house. It was awesome! The amenities in the house filled all of our needs. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards which were included in our rental fee. We were able to rent a pontoon boat for the day and had access to fire pits and charcoal grills. Although we brought several of our own games there were some games and puzzles available in the lake house. My favorite spot was on the upper deck that over looked the water. I was in need of a restful and relaxing vacation and this definitely fit the bill. Spent wonderful family time with my adult children and their significant others. Would definitely come back again. Jeff and Becky were helpful both with answering questions online and Jeff was helpful during the stay.

Wonderful weekend

Wonderful weekend

We arrived to a beautiful lake front property. The house was clean and the furniture was dated but in adequate condition. The mattress in the king bed was very comfortable, the kids loved the bunk beds. We made all our meals in the kitchen and enjoyed the great view with breakfast. The best part of this rental was that paddle boards and canoes were included. Also the speed boat and pontoons were available for rental and host was very nice in showing us how use it safely. The kids loved tubing. Just be aware that you will be sharing the beach, boats, etc with other guest renting the smaller cabins behind you. We had no issue with this enjoyed making small talk with our friendly neighbors as we watched the kids play. You do get the fire Pit by the beach in the evening to end the day and host provides all necessary items for the fire which is nice. Be aware no washer or dry is available in the house which was not an issue for us as we only stayed for a long weekend. In the end we had a wonderful time and would consider coming back.

Great location, house and lake. Very relaxing place to jump in the lake, paddle board or boat, and unwind by a campfire. This vacation was just the immediate family for a much needed vacation to hit the water, dunes and hiking trail and Fife Lake delivered. Property owners are incredibly nice and accommodating. Great Lake stay!
