Now Open Summer 2026 ~ Lake House near Grand Rapids ~ Sandy Beach ~Fishing

Come and spend a week relaxing at Big Crooked Lake while being close to Grand Rapids and the beautiful West Michigan lakeshore.

Renovated 1100 sqft home on a private, all-sports 150+ acre lake. Private boat launch available to bring your boat and enjoy the private dock and private sandy beach! The home is located on two-thirds of an acre and situated at the end of a peaceful, private drive cul-de-sac. Features include an open layout, 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, outdoor shower, full size washer & dryer, huge deck with plenty of seating, pergola, and 60 feet of private frontage on Big Crooked Lake in Ada, MI. Enjoy fabulous water sports, fishing, swimming, kayaking, a 60 x 60 sandy beach volleyball court, paddle boat rides, campfires, and gorgeous views!

Vacation home has the away from it all feel, yet is only 20 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids. The smaller villages of Cannonsburg, Parnell and Grattan are within 5 miles and provide dining, pubs, convenience stores, bike paths, hiking, mountain biking and zip lining. Just a short drive to Van Andel Arena, Fifth Third ballpark, Fredrick Meijer Gardens, Museums, John Ball Zoo, and many breweries. Gun Lake Casino and the Lake Michigan shoreline can be reached within an hour.

Our cottage is suitable for couples and families seeking a peaceful, quiet setting to enjoy lake life! The surrounding area is home to many full-time lake residents, making this a perfect choice for those looking to relax, fish, and enjoy water sports. As such, we do require guests to observe quiet hours from 10pm to 8am. Also note, we do not allow parties or events.

A signed rental agreement will be required within 24 hours of booking.

Disclaimer: Outdoor security cameras are in use at the property.
