Windover Lake Retreat

We enjoyed our weekend stay! The porch overlooking the lake was beautiful and peaceful. Fully stocked to cook your own meals and nice grill.

This place was absolutely amazing. The view was stunning—we loved watching the sunset right off the deck with the water just steps away. Everything about our stay was peaceful and refreshing. Communication with the hosts was quick, clear, and easy. We came with a few friends just to step away from the busyness of life, church, and ministry, and it was the perfect place to relax, laugh, and reconnect. We’re already looking forward to booking again!

Definitely loved this place highly recommended

Beautiful house on the lake. House was very clean. Robert is a great host. We have stayed at several of his listings and have enjoyed them all.

This Windover Lake Retreat truly won-us-over! Amenities led to the perfect spa-like experience…saunas, rain showers, soaking/jet tub, fire pit, crystal clear lake views! It was just the right fit for our digital detox weekend. Thank you for sharing this place, we hope to return:)

This house is positioned perfectly between 2 lakes. I enjoyed watching the sunrise over Grass Lake and sunset over Windover Lake. The sauna and fire pit were a nice touch. I left a bundle of firewood for the next guest.

The place was beautiful. Only stayed one night but the scenery was beautiful extremely quiet. Seen a lot of deer on the way. The lake in the morning is a beautiful sight.

We loved this place and would absolutely come back! It’s spacious, clean and in a fantastic spot!

Beautiful place for a getaway!

Amazing place had a great time! Definitely coming back here.

Wonderful place for a relaxing stay. We wanted to enjoy the views, decompress, and do nothing… and that’s exactly what we did. Having my pups with me was a bonus for sure. Would def stay again. Really can’t think of anything I would change (except, the bed on the first floor is super squeaky with any movement and woke me up each time I turned over-but that’s a me issue).

Lovely home, very peaceful and comfortable. We enjoyed the sauna, the jetted tub, and the bed was very comfortable

Had a great stay, played in the snow with grandkids and the GSD's. Thanks for the memories. Regards, Ralph and Angelic Van Bael

Beautiful relaxing location. The home is cozy and perfect to enjoy with family. It is a short drive to visit snow snake for snow tubing and skiing as a family!

Very nice place to stay would like to stay in the summer months and go boating on the lake.

This home was perfect! It was in a quiet area with a beautiful view of the trees in full color across the lake. The beds were comfortable and all the things we needed were in the kitchen. We would stay here again!

Nice place. Private location. Beautiful scenic landscape and lake. Quiet and pleasant. Outdoor sauna is awesome. Responsive and helpful communication by the host. Kitchen had everything we needed, but bring your own coffee— and all groceries in with you if you can… especially if you have, say, a gluten intolerance and want appropriate items like bread or beer. Check in and check out are a little aggressive— 4pm and 10am respectively— so just be prepared for that. Overall nice place. We would go back again.

We came for a family getaway with our kids for my husbands birthday and had a great time! My husband got in some fishing on the dock, we got to ride on the paddle boat, and the kids enjoyed the toys and drawing supplies they had. We had trouble with the gas fireplace and couldn't get it started, but enjoying the saunas completely made up for that (it was definitely my favorite part). We also drove up to Cadillac and enjoyed the little town there. Overall, it was an amazing little spot and we'd love to come back again!

Our stay at this beautiful retreat was amazing! The view of the natural lake was gorgeous, surrounded by vibrant fall trees that painted the landscape in stunning colors. We were thrilled to spot a bald eagle flying over the home. We watched the ducks, geese, and graceful swans right from the property. The variety of seating options, both indoors and outdoors, was perfect for soaking in the scenery while relaxing or dining. The kitchen was a delight—well-equipped, user-friendly, and ideal for preparing meals while enjoying the lake view. The sauna was an absolute highlight, incredibly easy to use and the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. Highly recommend to anyone seeking a serene, nature-filled escape!

It was such a pleasurable stay. The home is lovely and spacious and laid out perfectly. My family loved the access to Lake and couldn't get enough off the sauna and then going out to jump in the lake! I appreciate the baby gear being available and was a nice surprise to have. Overall just a slice of heaven and a good location to disconnect.

the house is so clean! we enjoyed a lot and my family were so happy. I love the location, nice neighborhood, quiet. Next time for sure we will come back again for another vacation. Thanks Robert for your accomodation.

The house absolutely beautiful, with amazing view. Host was responsive to any questions we had. Everything was as described. The private beach and the saunas was great to enjoy at all the time. Highly recommend! We hope to be back soon.

We stayed here to celebrate our kids’ birthdays and had the best time! The cabin had everything we needed for both relaxation and fun. The kids loved fishing, paddle boarding, and boating on the lake, while the adults enjoyed the perfect sleeping accommodations and peaceful atmosphere. One of the highlights was having two different saunas to choose from — the perfect way to relax after a day on the water. The property itself is gorgeous, surrounded by wildflowers and hydrangeas that make the whole place feel extra special. We left with amazing memories and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend this cabin for families looking for both adventure and relaxation!

Our stay couldn’t have been better! From all the amenities to the amazing views and peaceful surroundings - we will for sure be back! 5/5 stars ⭐️

Beautiful home, lake, scenery. Amenities were as advertised. Very clean home and yard. Dogs loved the lake and beach, we will definitely be back!

This was such a beautiful spot for a nice family vacation tons of space for everyone and lots of things to do included in the listing my family and I really enjoyed it and we were able to bring our dog along who also enjoyed the space as well the host was very friendly and very responsive

Great house!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful lakefront cottage! The property is absolutely gorgeous, and the lake was perfect for both swimming and fishing. We especially loved the extras that were included—there’s a paddleboat, small kayak, and paddle board, which made our time on the water even more fun. The outdoor wood-fired sauna was such a unique and relaxing experience, and evenings around the firepit, right next to the lake, were unforgettable. The house itself is spacious and comfortable, making it great for a larger family or a group of friends. It’s also dog-friendly, which was a huge bonus—our Frenchie had the time of his life exploring the large, private property! This spot has everything you could want for a relaxing and memorable getaway. We’d come back in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat on the lake.

Came here for a bachelor party weekend, we couldn’t have asked for a better house. The views, the space, the yard games that were included, the dock and paddle boat, the grill, the deck and patio were all amazing. The inside of the home was clean & well taken care of with plenty of dishes and utensils. The indoor sauna was incredible! Plenty of beds and room to relax inside. I can not say enough good things about this house, and the hosts were very quick to respond when I had a question. Thank you for providing such a great house to share.

If you’re looking for a lake house to enjoy with the family in mid-Michigan, this is it! The house is perfectly laid out for families, inside and out. The little touches from the owners/builders show how intentionally it was designed to meet the needs of families, from the hooks under the deck for drying lake gear to the foot wash tubs around entrances for sandy beach feet. The lot is beautifully landscaped and about as private as you can get on a lake. Perfect room for the kids and dogs to play! The lake water was clear, beach was perfect to wade in, and bass fishing galore right off the dock and around the lake. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need to make and store meals. The house has limited fans for hot summer days, so bring extra fans if the weather is warm. Especially the bunk room - it could use some airflow. The septic and basement shower could use some maintenance, as that should all work well in a house this pricy! But in the end, we enjoyed our stay.

This place was fantastic! Beautiful, clean, quiet and fully stocked! Perfect for adults and children of all ages. I will be recommending it to all my friends.

We had a wonderful stay at this place. We are a group of 7 people and 1 dog and we are truly satisfied with the place. Everything is what has been said on the description. I like that it is dog friendly. It's good for a peaceful retreat. All amenities are working just fine. The lake is so calm and relaxing. Inside it is clean and very nice to just stay in. I am recommending this to my friends and will probably book it again next time.

We had a wonderful time. The lake was crystal clear and the beach was clean! We loved the corn hole boards and the downstairs sauna during our colder day. The home had everything we needed, even lots of baby stuff that was super helpful for my 8 month old nephew.

My family enjoyed this lakehouse during a random 80 degree swing in the weather for Northern Michigan. Would highly recommend booking this for your family. Lots of things to do for the kiddos. The Lake the house is on called Windover Lake is beautiful, clean and full of bass! We had blast fishing from our pontoon and then enjoyed a fire by the lake every night.

Our group truly enjoyed our time spent at Forest and Flow! The view of Windover Lake was absolutely beautiful! First night there we spotted two loons and a bald eagle!! For us bird lovers it was a spectacular sight! Unfortunately, during our time there it was very windy and chilly so we weren’t able to have a fire or spend much time enjoying the outdoor amenities. But let me tell you, having the sauna to enjoy in the midst of the wind and chilliness was exactly what we needed! We definitely would love to visit this beautiful spot again sometime soon! There are lake views in the front of the house and to the back! And it’s just an overall cozy space to occupy, we each felt right at home!

We had a wonderful stay! We visited from Chicago and were looking for a peaceful retreat to unwind. The peace and quiet were exactly what we needed. We took the paddle boat out every day, relaxed in the sauna daily, and soaked in the lovely views. Our dog loved the huge yard to run and explore, and the sunsets were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend and would love to come back especially in the summer time!

The house is in a great location with a wonderful view of the lake! We enjoyed spending time on the deck watching the loons and other wildlife. It was a very relaxing stay!

The house and setting was absolutely beautiful, so peaceful, and just as expected. Host was responsive to any questions I had in the run up to our stay. Everything was as described and clear instructions were left throughout the home for anything we had questions on, so had no need to reach out during our stay. The private beach, water toys, firepit, saunas and other extras were plenty to keep us occupied throughout our trip. Highly recommend! We hope to be back soon & stay even longer next time!

Incredible place!! The location was right on the lake. Beautiful and serene. Their place was spacious and comfortable. The sauna was the piece de resistance. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful home. Had a wonderful time.

Definitely a nice place to stay at if you just want time to yourself away from the city with friends or family.

We arrived to a beautiful view of the lake and the area around the Cabin. The cabin has plenty of room for 10 guests. The inside was welcoming, very clean and so comfortable. The cabin has everything we needed to make our stay complete a washer, dryer, full kitchen, saunas, internet, fireplace, lake, and much more Our host Robert was friendly and efficient. He makes himself available, just incase we needed anything. It was a great stay and we hardly wait to stay at Windover Lake Retreat again.
