Overview
This elegant vacation home sits on Pine Lake in West Bloomfield, Michigan, and is purpose-built for entertaining and relaxed lakefront living. The property pairs a residential, home-like setting with a genuine water view and expansive outdoor space, making it feel more like a private retreat than a standard hotel stay. With a 5.0 rating from its reviews, it has quickly built a reputation as a comfortable, well-equipped lakeside base.
Rooms & In-Home Features
The home is fitted with five TVs (cable-enabled), a Sonos sound system in every room, air conditioning and heating, a fireplace, and an ironing board, giving it a fully furnished residential feel rather than a stripped-down rental. A washer is available for longer stays, and the layout is designed to comfortably host groups such as wedding parties or multi-generational gatherings.
Kitchen & Outdoor Dining
A well-appointed kitchen with an oven, stove, and microwave supports full self-catering, while an outdoor grill, patio, balcony, and large deck extend dining and lounging outside. Guests have highlighted the big backyard as ideal for outdoor meals and gatherings, especially in warmer months.
Lake Access & Recreation
The standout feature is direct Pine Lake access, supporting swimming, kayaking, paddle-boarding, fishing, and even boat access for an additional fee. A private hot tub on-site adds a further relaxation option after a day on the water, and the surrounding neighborhood is noted as pleasant for running and biking.
Location
The home is close to a cluster of dining options including The Harbor Steak House, Lodge Grill & Bar, Sylvan Table, Órale, B1 Tavern, and 5th Tavern Bloomfield, most within about 3 kilometers. It's also within easy reach of Franklin Cider Mill, Oakland Hills Country Club, Cranbrook, and Downtown Birmingham, with Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport roughly 42.6 km away.
Best for
This home is best suited to groups and families celebrating an occasion, such as a wedding party or reunion, given its spacious layout, large backyard, and lake access for swimming, kayaking, and paddle-boarding. It also appeals to travelers who want a self-catered, home-style stay with a full kitchen, grill, and hot tub rather than a traditional hotel room. Guests who enjoy outdoor recreation and lakeside scenery, plus proximity to Cranbrook and Downtown Birmingham, will find it especially rewarding.
Travel tips
Since the home is in a residential lakeside neighborhood, a car is recommended for reaching the surrounding restaurants, Cranbrook, Downtown Birmingham, and other Oakland County attractions. Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is about 42.6 km away, so allow adequate transfer time. Warmer months are ideal for making the most of the deck, patio, grill, and lake access, and boat access can be arranged for an additional fee if planned in advance.
