Lakefront Retreat on Budd Lake, Fall Colors, Fire Pit, Fishing & Kayaks

Welcome to Mind Heaven Retreat, a cozy, pet-friendly Up North lakefront getaway directly on beautiful Budd Lake in Harrison, Michigan — just 2.5 hours from Detroit and 1.5 hours from Lansing. Surrounded by trees that come alive with beautiful fall color, our 3-bedroom cabin is a place to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the lake in every season — and your four-legged family member can come along too.

THE LAKE IS YOUR BACKYARD

Step outside and you're right on the water. Start your morning with a fresh cup of coffee overlooking Budd Lake, watch the sunrise from the deck, or head down to your private sandy beach and dock.

Guests have 2 kayaks available to use, so you can paddle out and explore the lake without having to bring your own.

Love to fish Cast a line right from the dock for walleye, bass, pike and perch, or bring your boat and spend the day exploring Budd Lake.

FALL AT MIND HEAVEN RETREAT

Fall is one of our favorite times at the cabin. The trees surrounding the property turn beautiful shades of red, orange and gold, the lake becomes quieter, and cooler temperatures make it perfect for fishing, kayaking, hiking and exploring the area.

After a day outside, gather around the fire pit by the lake, make s'mores, share a drink, and enjoy a crisp Michigan evening under the stars.

COZY & COMFORTABLE INSIDE

The main floor has a warm, woodsy cabin feel with an open kitchen, dining and living area — perfect for spending time together after a day outdoors.

Two bedrooms are located on the main level: one with a queen bed and another with a full bed. You'll also find a fully updated bathroom featuring a stone-tile walk-in shower, glass block window and matte black fixtures.

The walkout lower level provides additional sleeping space with a futon and desk, plus a separate bunk area with two bunk beds and a foosball table — an especially fun setup for kids and teens.

The home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests.

LITTLE EXTRAS THAT MAKE YOUR GETAWAY EASIER

We want you to spend more time enjoying the lake and less time worrying about what to pack. You'll find a well-equipped kitchen and coffee provided for your mornings, along with the outdoor amenities that make an Up North getaway special — 2 kayaks, private beach access, dock, fire pit and beautiful lake views.

Self check-in with a smart lock makes arrival simple and convenient, so your getaway can begin as soon as you arrive.

BRING YOUR FOUR-LEGGED FAMILY MEMBER
