About this resort

Lakemore Retreat is comprised of two rental properties: 'Lakemore Lodge '(red house) and 'Lakemore Cottage' (green house). The Retreat is a wonderful option for large family reunions, intimate weddings (50 guests or less), corporate retreats, respectful bachelor and bachelorette parties and family vacations. Each home can be rented individually from their own sites, but many families rent both togeether for the same time period, altogether sleeping up to 24 people comfortably. The calendar on this listing is updated to reflect weeks that have both homes rented. For individual availability and guest reviews, please visit each home's individual sites: Lakemore Lodge (VRBO Listing #655085) Lakemore Cottage (VRBO Listing #653686). The Cottage and Lodge are luxury homes built in 2015 that each sleep 12. They are side by side and offer exactly the same amenities and floor plan, just with very different interior design.

Want more space? Check out our newest sister property across the lake, Lakemore Resort, with 7 additional homes. We offer many different variations of rental properties to fit any of our guest's requests.

Come enjoy the many benefits of this all sports inland lake where the 395 acres are swimmable from May until October, the fishing is plentiful and the conditions are perfect for many water sports including kayaking, stand up paddle-boarding, water skiing, and tubing, all while being minutes away from Traverse City’s restaurants, shops, wineries, golf and more.

Lakemore Retreat is directly adjacent to The Brown Bridge Quiet Area which offers miles of hiking trails. Like to snowmobile? Leave right from the property and access Boardman Valley Trail System's 81 miles of trails! Boardman River is also within 3 miles, a great place to do river tubing, kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. We are only 7 mi. from Vasa Single Track, a great Mountain Bike trail system. In addition, the Vasa is home to 25 km of groomed cross country trails. Mount Holiday is only 15 minutes away, a local downhill ski hill. Crystal Mountain Ski Resort is only 45 miles away.

This setting is perfect for relaxing lakefront vacationing away from the hustle of town, but be sure to leave time for a short 15-minute drive to the city. Traverse City is well known for its lakefront, with countless shops and restaurants. The greater Traverse City Area is nationally recognized for Old Mission Peninsula and the Leelanau Peninsula's many wineries, as well as the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.

We had the best time with our extended family! There was plenty to do for the whole family ages 1-65, we barely left the property! The staff and host were very responsive and easy to interact with, especially Tricia, Nick, and Mackenzie, and we had every amenity we could think of. The side by side houses were perfect for our family, and the ease of sharing amenities like beach and grill made it seamless. THANK YOU for a memorable family trip - we hope to come back!

We spent a wonderful week with our kids and grandkids (28 in total). Houses were excellent: modern, well-maintained, plenty of room for everyone. Thomas did a great job with the daily maintenance of the hot tubs and fueling the pontoon boat, as well as any thing else we asked. Close to Traverse City and all its offerings. Highly recommend Lakemore Retreat!

The three houses were a perfect location to bring family together from around the country. The lake was crystal clear with plenty of water activities for everyone! Tricia and her team were very responsive to any questions we had. I would highly recommend any of the three houses at lake more retreat!

We had a large family reunion and rented all three houses. The location was fantastic and the houses were very clean and comfortable. Tricia was very responsive to questions and any problems we had. She also offered great suggestions on where to go and see. Hope to come back in a couple of years.
