Lake view
Perfect spot for enjoying all that northern Mi has to offer! We loved the lake view, access to kayaks, fire pit, and comforts of home. Our stay at “The Loon” was great!

Great little resort with fantastic setting. Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at Twin Loon Resort. The setting is beautiful, quiet and serene. We stayed at The Loon, a nicely equipped and permantely set RV with a wrap around deck, but there are other cabins at the resort of you prefer being in a house. The RV was very spacious, clean and modern and equipped with everything you would need. The property owners thought of every little detail, so the RV is well equipped and cozy and exceeded our expectations. There's good mobile phone signal, wi-fi and 2 TVs with Rokus so you can stay connected. Communication with owners before-hand and upon arrival, check-in was a breeze. The setting couldn't be more ideal, with a gorgeous lake to look over, outdoor Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, a grill and front door parking. There's a dock with row boats and kayaks that we really enjoyed using for free. If you're looking for swimming in the lake, this probably isn't the ideal lake for that because there are a lot of Lilly pads and algae, but a great fishing spot and plenty to explore around the lake. Other than that, the resort is about 10 minutes away from Beulah where there are great food options and 20 minutes away from Frankfort on Lake Michigan and many other outdoor activities in the area. We'll be back soon.
Great Stay for 2 nights in mid June weekend! Booked with trepidation this RV site, not having lived in RV before but tremendously enjoyed the stay with family of four in this super location at a height over the lake with a nice view out of the RV master room windows and also from one of the bunk beds. The property manager Kelly was nice too. Having kayaks just down the ramp available allowed good use of exploring the lake at all hours
