The Hoffa House - A Piece of American History on a lake

Welcome to The Hoffa House, the former Lake Orion home of legendary Teamsters leader James R. "Jimmy" Hoffa and his wife, Josephine.

This unique lakefront home offers guests the rare opportunity to stay in a place connected to one of the most fascinating figures in American history. We've carefully renovated the home while preserving its character, history and charm.

The home features 3 bedrooms, each with its own private full bathroom, making it ideal for couples, families or friends traveling together. Relax by the lake, enjoy the nostalgic original bar and special touches honoring the home's remarkable past. Throughout the house, you'll find touches that celebrate it history without sacrificing the comforts you expect from a modern vacation rental.

Outside, enjoy the peaceful lake setting and beautiful property. The lake is electric-motor-only, creating a quieter atmosphere for relaxing and enjoy a one-of-a-kind getaway.

Whether you're a history enthusiast, visiting the Lake Orion area, gathering with family and friends, or simply looking for a getaway, you won't find anywhere else, The Hoffa House is more than a place to stay; it's a story you get to be part of.
