About this house rental

Looking for a retreat that feels like you're far away but still close to everything? The Wild Refuge Lodge may be just the spot for you. This secluded rustic lakefront lodge on Green Lake, located on 125 acres of woodlands, offers a beautiful, quiet spot for you to unwind. The large log home features 6-bedrooms and 4-full baths. Up to 14 guests are welcome. Walk through the front door into a huge living room, including an electric fireplace, with sitting a area that looks through a two-story wall of glass onto the woods and waterfront. Off the living area is the full kitchen and dining room that also face the lake. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms on each level. Beds include three kings, a double, and six twins. A suspended catwalk spans the two-story living area connecting the second-floor bedrooms. Additional dining area off the kitchen offers a fun space for families to gather.

Outdoors, children can run freely while parents relax with no worries about traffic. Spot deer in the morning and hear owls and loons at night. A porch-side picnic table allows alfresco dining with spectacular views across the water as the sun sets over the Betsie River – a protected national wilderness area.

Walk down to the dock for a late-afternoon swim, or – if you’ve brought your own boat – launch it at the public boat access, next to the river just across the water. Green Lake offers clear waters and welcomes boaters and fisherman. Take a swim in the deep cool waters. Due to the nature of this property, outdoor fires are prohibited.

Renowned Interlochen Center for the Arts, a cultural hub for talent from around the world, is just 10 minutes away. Traverse City – with its annual film festivals and beloved Cherry Festival – is 30 minutes away. The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is just 40 minutes away.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely location. Terrific shared spaces with excellent dining facilities for a large group. My only real problem was the total lack of bedside stands or any kind of light for reading in bed. I need my glasses by my bedside, but nothing doing here. Showers were not great, but marginally ok. Very clean. Property manager was very responsive when needed.

Property was as advertised. Overall the house was clean and ready for us on arrival. This house is located down a long driveway and is nestled in the woods so we did expect it to be rustic in setting. Access to Green Lake is wonderful and we did a lot of swimming right off the dock. Plenty of room for four families and a total of 13 guests!

Everyone enjoyed it!!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2025
Location was OK. Property needs some upkeep. Main door was open when we arrived. Basement door to the outside was closed but unlocked. Property has a dock but there are no provisions for tying up any kind of boat.Will not refer this property to anyone asking for a recommendation.
