About this house rental
Built in 1908, Brooks Lodge is an historic, three-story, landmark, all seasons vacation home located on the north side of Brooks Lake in Newaygo, Michigan. Located about one hour north of Grand Rapids, Brooks Lodge offers vacationers a spacious, accommodating, and relaxing environment available by the week or for shorter term stays. Brooks Lodge is the perfect place to unwind, reconnect, and renew.
During your stay, enjoy 110 feet of sandy beach front, fishing docks, and shallow wading area. Grab a lounge chair and head to one of three spacious wood decks that offer panoramic lake views. Or hop on a paddle boat or canoe for a lake excursion. Enjoy your evenings around the fire pit overlooking the lake and watching the sunset. (Firewood provided!!)
Inside, is a fully furnished, 100+ year-old home that features a stone fireplace, hard wood floors, fully stocked kitchens, spiral staircases, ceramic tiled halls and baths, and ample living space for large groups, families, and retreats. Accommodates approximately 20-25 people. No pets or smoking, please.
Looking for a summer rental and wondering why the summer is blocked off? In 2005 we started as a summer rental through word of mouth. During the summer we book Brooks Lodge by the week, not by the night. Most families are repeat guests and are booking 1-2 years in advance. Because of this, we block off the entire summer.
However, as we have weeks available, we will open them up on VRBO. If you have a particular week(s) in mind, please let us know and we'll check our summer schedule to see if we can open that week or put you on a waitlist.
Also we would like to note that the property does NOT have a working AC unit, but we do provide fans in each bedroom.
We have a water softener system attached to the entire water system that flows through all the faucets in the house. Tap water is filtered and safe to drink/cook with. The water is monitored regularly by a local water care company.
Unfortunately, we are not able to host wedding parties, rehearsal dinners, bridal/bachelorette weekends, or other wedding related events.

Our Moms Group enjoyed our stay here. Lots of space for puzzling and playing cards. Many refridgerators for our food. The bedrooms were nice and there was lots of parking! The grills were ready to go and the lake was pretty. We had a nice relaxing weekend
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
We had a fantastic time and the space worked really well for our needs. Major highlights for us was the provided appliances in the kitchen were plentiful and made it easier to stay in. The available firewood was really appreciated and the VHS tape collection was fantastic and well enjoyed.

Nice place overall, good communication with the host. The water had a sulfuric smell/taste which wasn’t ideal for showering. Drinking it ended up causing sickness, so make sure to boil any tap water. Nice lake though!
