    About this property

    Huge lake house. 3 levels. 9 bedrooms. Great for groups. Large beach. Fire pit.

    Built in 1908, Brooks Lodge is an historic, three-story, landmark, all seasons vacation home located on the north side of Brooks Lake in Newaygo, Michigan.

Or hop on a paddle boat or canoe for a lake excursion. Enjoy your evenings around the fire pit overlooking the lake and watching the sunset.

    Inside, is a fully furnished, 100+ year-old home that features a stone fireplace, hard wood floors, fully stocked kitchens, spiral staircases, ceramic tiled halls and baths, and ample living space for large groups, families, and retreats. Accommodates approximately 20-25 people. No pets or smoking, please.

    Looking for a summer rental and wondering why the summer is blocked off? In 2005 we started as a summer rental through word of mouth. During the summer we book Brooks Lodge by the week, not by the night. Most families are repeat guests and are booking 1-2 years in advance. Because of this, we block off the entire summer. However, as we have weeks available, we will open them up on VRBO. If you have a particular week(s) in mind, please let us know and we'll check our summer schedule to see if we can open that week and book you.
    During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Huron-Manistee National Forest. Laundry facilities are available. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the holiday home.
