Wake up to Lake 27, brew a Keurig, and walk barefoot onto 300 feet of private sandy beach. Launch kayaks, paddle boards, jet skis, or the boat from your dock — Lake 27 is all-sports, so bring the toys.
Hot tub and BBQ on the deck, fire pit down on the beach for s'mores after dark. Inside: pool table that converts to dining, NBA Jam in the Crew Room, smart TVs throughout.
Built for family reunions, multi-gen trips, and friend groups. 15 min to Gaylord, 20 to Treetops & Boyne.
Retreat 27 is managed by Haze Retreats. We're available by message anytime you need anything, and our local team can be on-site quickly if something needs hands-on attention — but we respect your privacy and won't drop by unannounced. A digital guidebook with house details, local recommendations, and check-out instructions is shared before arrival.
Located on the shores of Lake 27 on a quiet lakefront road in Gaylord, Michigan — the heart of Northern Michigan's four-season playground. Minutes from city centre Gaylord's shops and restaurants. The area offers year-round activities including golf, skiing, hiking, snowmobiling, fishing, and access to dozens of inland lakes.
Self check-in via smart lock — you'll receive your access code before arrival. The entire home is yours, no shared spaces.
Outdoor & Lakefront
Step out the slider and you're on the deck — hot tub overlooking Lake 27, BBQ ready for steak nights. Down a short path: 300 feet of your own private sandy beach, fire pit waiting for s'mores after dark, and a private dock loaded with kayaks and paddle boards. Lake 27 is all-sports, so bring the boat.
– Deck with hot tub overlooking Lake 27
– BBQ with grilling utensils on the deck
– 300' of private sandy beach
– Fire pit on the beach
– Private dock for kayaks, paddle boards, boats, and jet skis
– Wooded lakefront lot
Seasonal note: the dock comes out for the winter in early October and goes back in each spring. Kayaks and paddle boards stay available all season - launch them right from the beach.
Also worth knowing: Lake 27's water level is currently higher than usual, so the beach is noticeably smaller than it appears in the photos. Swim access and the waterfront are fully usable - there's just less sand between the water and the yard right now.
