SML Ski School
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Formerly serving as a ski school and then a church camp, this lakefront retreat now comes fully remodeled and ready to host your next group getaway. Boasting private lake frontage and plenty of room to spread out, this leisure lodge comes fully furnished inside and out for family-friendly comfort and entertainment. Swim or launch kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and canoes from the dock or head to the upper deck for sun-soaked lounging. The massive covered porch comes furnished for breezy outdoor living with patio sofas, a gas grill, a banquet-style dining table, and a children's picnic table. When the sun sets, head down to the wood-burning firepit for starlight s'mores and conversation.
Challenge friends and family to a few rounds of Ping-Pong or enjoy casual happy hour entertainment in the game room featuring a smart TV, sofa lounge, and bar area. Children's toys and games are provided, and there's a full-size fridge for keeping cold drinks on hand. The private movie room comes furnished for cinema magic with a 65-inch smart TV and sound bar.
Designed with group gatherings in mind, the sunny main-floor interior features a spacious open layout blending living, kitchen, and dining areas. The roomy full kitchen comes well-appointed with ample counter space and all the major appliances you'll need for preparing family-style meals. Additional perks include free WiFi, an EV charger, and a private washer/dryer.

Nice location and great space for sleeping multiple people. I feel the outside needs some cleaning up.

This house is even bigger in person than it appears in the photos. It was clean and well maintained. We absolutely loved our vacation and can’t recommend it enough. Thanks for a great week!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jun 2025
All our friends keep talking about is that they wish they were back here. This spacious home was the perfect venue for a group of friends to spread out and have a blast both indoors and out! Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jun 2025
We were pleased with the secluded wooded lot and cove. Back porch, basement, and boat dock all serve as great places to gather with your group to enjoy time together. Other than a couple old deck boards that can easily be remedied, this property served us well and allowed us to enjoy time together both at the property and on the lake. Thanks!
