Hamlin Lake Hideaway

Serenity and pure nature. The house was cozy and had everything you need. The back porch was like sitting in a giant treehouse over looking a beautiful lake. The sunsets were a highlight. A glorious location to exhale and enjoy peace and quiet.

It is a beautiful house with a beautiful view. It is situated between Ludington and Manistee so it was convenient to take excursions to either city. You can drive about 3 miles to a trailhead with trails leading to the Lake Michigan shore.

Very relaxing

We loved this cabin! Very peaceful, remote but still convenient to Ludington and Manistee. Right on the lake, beautiful sunrise watching in the evenings. We hope to stay again next year!

Such a magical place. Enchanting winding woods road and a serene view from the lakeside deck. Stunning sunsets and starry nights. Super quiet cottage from the inside, with comfortable furnishings and well stocked kitchen. Downtown Manistee and Ludington for dinners. Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness area and Lake Michigan @ Manistee area for some spectacular views of Lake Michigan. Morning fishing on Hamlin Lake with great success. A wonderful time was had by all!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is well appointed with everything you need. Beds are comfy and front porch is great for morning coffee. The doc was perfect for our 19 ft boat with bumpers built in to protect the boat when waves are rough. This end of the lake is remote with some weeds, but also a little more protected from wind. The boat launch is about 30 minute drive but only about a mile across from the house. We were able to leave the boat in all week. It's about 35 minutes to Ludington. Last 5 miles you are on dirt roads getting back to the house, but they are well maintained. We loved the privacy and would stay again. Sharon was very responsive with all my questions. Fantastic house!

We needed a place that was pet friendly and had at least 3 bedrooms with beds suitable for tall people. We also wanted to be very near or on Hamlin Lake. This place was perfect. It had all the items you would expect to find in your own home.

Very well furnished and very nice place on Hamlin Lake. We enjoyed our stay.

We loved our stay! The property was clean, well-equipped, and right on the lake. We all had a wonderful time cruising the lake, hiking in the woods, kayaking, and hanging out by the campfire. We got to see some wonderful sunsets and Sharon was so attentive when we needed her. The cottage itself boasts wonderful lake views, 2 porches, and a bevy of books and games. We didn’t need the AC on this trip, but it was nice knowing it was there. I really can’t complain about a thing.

Hamlin Lake Hideaway is PERFECT for anyone looking for peace, quiet and relaxation. Just a 10-15 minute drive from both Nordhouse Dunes (great hiking) and Lake Michigan Recreation area. Far enough away from Ludington area that you feel secluded (that's what we were looking for), yet also close enough (15-20 min drive) for a day trip or if you need something. 3 kayaks provided...2 solo and 1 tandem, a very nice touch as this portion of the lake is perfect for it. Plenty of outdoor seating for relaxing. Fire pit and Weber grill provided as well. Outstanding views of the lake, with nature all around you. We will definitely be back!
