About this house rental
Located just a short walk from downtown New Baltimore and the waterfront, Balti Bay Lodge puts you close to the beach, fishing pier, playground, pavilion, restaurants, shops, winery, and seasonal events. Whether your plans include fishing, boating, swimming, exploring town, or simply relaxing around the fire at the end of the day, you’ll have a comfortable home base waiting for you.
THE SPACE
Balti Bay Lodge offers plenty of room for your group to spread out while still having comfortable spaces to gather together.
Main Floor
The main floor features a spacious living and dining area with plenty of seating for relaxing, sharing meals, playing games, or spending time together after a day on the lake.
The large, fully equipped kitchen makes preparing meals at home easy. It includes:
* Full-size refrigerator and freezer
* Filtered water and ice maker
* Stove and oven
* Dishwasher
* Microwave
* Coffee-making essentials
* Cookware, dishes, utensils, and everyday kitchen necessities
There is also a queen bed and twin bed in the bedroom on the first floor, making it a convenient option for guests who prefer to avoid stairs.
One of our favorite features of the Lodge is having two full bathrooms on the main floor. One offers a walk-in shower, while the second has a tub/shower combination—especially helpful when larger groups are getting ready for the day.
A laundry area with a washer and dryer is also available for guest use.
UPSTAIRS BEDROOMS
Upstairs you’ll find additional sleeping accommodations with flexible arrangements for families and groups.
Bedroom 2
* Queen bed
Bedroom 3
* Full size bed
* Full-over-full bunk bed
The combination of queen, twin, and bunk-style sleeping arrangements makes the Lodge especially convenient for families traveling together, fishing groups, and multi-generational stays.
OUTDOOR SPACE
Step outside and enjoy your own backyard retreat.
The private backyard features a patio and fire pit, giving your group a great place to relax outdoors. Spend the evening around the fire, enjoy a meal outside, or unwind after a full day on Lake St. Clair.
A gas grill is available for cookouts, making summer dinners easy after a day of boating, fishing, or swimming.
BOATERS & ANGLERS WELCOME 🎣
Coming to Lake St. Clair to fish or spend time on the water? Balti Bay Lodge is a great home base.
We’re conveniently located near multiple boat launches, and the property offers on-site parking for vehicles, boats, and trailers. That means less hassle figuring out where to keep your equipment during your stay.
Whether you’re visiting for a fishing tournament, planning an early morning on the lake, bringing your own boat for a family vacation, or simply hoping to cast a line from the nearby pier, our location makes getting on the water convenient.
Afterward, come back to the Lodge, fire up the grill, relax on the patio, and enjoy the evening around the fire pit.
WALK TO DOWNTOWN NEW BALTIMORE
One of the best parts about staying at Balti Bay Lodge is being close to downtown while still having the space and comfort of a home.
Take a short walk into downtown New Baltimore and enjoy:
* Lake St. Clair waterfront
* Public beach
* Fishing pier
* Playground
* Waterfront pavilion
* Local restaurants
* Shops and boutiques
* Winery
* Seasonal farmers market
* Community festivals and events
Grab dinner or drinks downtown, take an evening stroll along the water, let the kids enjoy the playground, or watch the activity on the lake.
During warmer months, New Baltimore has a fun waterfront atmosphere with boating, fishing, swimming, outdoor dining, festivals, and community events. Fall brings cooler evenings and beautiful seasonal activities, while winter offers a quieter lakeside escape with opportunities for ice fishing when conditions allow.
PERFECT FOR GROUP GETAWAYS
Balti Bay Lodge works especially well for:
Family vacations – Plenty of sleeping space, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, backyard, and easy access to the beach and playground.
Fishing trips – Convenient access to Lake St. Clair, nearby boat launches, and parking for boats and trailers.
Boating weekends – Bring your boat and enjoy days on the water without sacrificing the comforts of home.
Multi-generational trips – A first-floor queen bedroom and two full bathrooms on the main level offer added convenience.
Friends’ getaways – Spend the day exploring or boating, then come home for dinner, games, and a fire outside.
Extended stays – A full kitchen, dishwasher, washer and dryer, and comfortable living spaces make longer visits much easier.
A HOME AWAY FROM HOME
We want Balti Bay Lodge to feel comfortable and welcoming rather than simply being a place to sleep.
There is room to gather when everyone wants to be together and enough space to spread out when you want a little downtime. Make breakfast before heading to the lake, come back for an afternoon break, cook dinner together, watch a movie, play games, or enjoy an evening outdoors.
We know traveling with a family or group takes planning, so we’ve tried to provide the conveniences that make a trip easier.
For families traveling with little ones, please ask us about available items such as a high chair, booster seat, or playpen.
