Lakefront Family Friendly Home with Large Sandy Beach and Beautiful Views

The Lakehouse is on Silver Lake, which is one of the premier lakes in West Michigan, only 15 miles from downtown Grand Rapids and 5 miles from downtown Rockford. The home has about 2000 sq. feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, plus a large 4 season porch surrounded by windows. The home is in a quiet and safe neighborhood on a large flat lot with 80 feet of sandy beach with a Solo fire pit for gathering with your family and friends. The property also includes a 300-foot-deep back lot with a large driveway and garage.

Silver Lake is an all sports lake with about 225 acres that is in the top 5% of lakes in Michigan in water clarity. The home is in a protected area from westerly winds and faces southeast so you will enjoy waking up to beautiful sunrises and sunsets that can be seen from the water.

The home was updated in the winter of 2022 with a new kitchen, appliances, floors, paint, gas fireplace, and some new furniture.

A large dock is included with a platform on the end with a glider chair. A 4-person paddle boat, 2 kayaks, and 2 stand up paddle boards are provided for your enjoyment. The property also has corn toss, croquet, horseshoes, volleyball, bikes, water/sand toys, life jackets, etc. are provided.

An Avalon 2021 20-foot pontoon boat with a 60 hp engine is potentially available for rent during your stay. Please inquire about pricing and availability. I have 2 homes on the lake, and it is reserved to the first renter that requests it.

Almost anything you would need for your stay is included, except for food and beverages.

There are numerous recreational activities in the area with many parks and bike trails close by. 8 new outdoor pickleball courts have been installed at the Cannon Township property 1 mile away. A variety of wonderful shops and restaurants are located within 5 miles of the cottage. In the winter Cannonsburg Ski Resort is 2 miles to the south of the home.

I also have another 3 bedrooms, 2 bath rental on the lake about 12 houses away if the dates are not available. The VRBO # is 1351695
