Oasis on Murray Lake, just NE of Grand Rapids


To really see my home, be sure to take the virtual tour at the link below. It was updated May 2024 as we have added a few more bedrooms and living spaces. Just copy and paste it in a web browser. You can see every detail!

Come enjoy Michigan at its finest on all sports and trophy fishing Murray Lake in our new million dollar home. Close to downtown Grand Rapids, MI, 30 minutes from the airport, and about an hour to Lake Michigan, this home is the perfect location for visitors or locals to just kick back and enjoy life.

We just finished renovating our home. Everything is new and up to date. The kitchen is fully-stocked and has all the features of a gourmet chef's dreams. Dishes, appliances, glasses are plenty and high end. In addition to the 8 seating dining table, there are more tables that can extend your seating. The fireplace has an original barn beam mantel and copper chimney. There are plenty of sitting/conversation areas throughout the home. And for the men and kids, there is a man cave with a large screen TV! Outdoors is a calming waterfall, large firepit, grassy lake side yard and beautiful clean sand....everything to make your stay perfect!

The home accommodates a maximum of 15 guests, whether visiting for the day or sleeping in the home. Our neighbors prefer no parties or larger groups than 15 people. We request that our guests respect this so we can continue to share our home with others on VRBO. Many communities have banned vacation rentals for this reason.

On a more positive note, we have a great dock for fishing and a swim raft on the edge of the drop off. There are paddle boards and kayaks at no additional charge. We do have a pontoon (and tube) available for rent, $1,400 for the week, plus gas.

If interested, we can put you in touch with either excellent catering companies or a personal chef, photographers, light maid service, baby sitters, life guards, or boat drivers. The lake is very clean and we have a fresh sandy beach steps from the home.

Nearby there are great bike paths, zip line, Lake Michigan beaches, Grand Rapids breweries, local farm produce and ice cream, and only 15 minutes to downtown Lowell, best ribs in Michigan or a quick 20 - 30 minutes to Grand Rapids.

***PLEASE NOTE: Our driveway accommodates 6 vehicles and street parking is not allowed. Absolutely no pets, bachelor/bachelorette parties, weddings, or events allowed. No exceptions. ***

A stunning home that is perfect for large family gatherings. We enjoyed the serenity and spaces for us all to hang out and enjoy the lake, reading, hiking and being together doing puzzles and playing board games. The kitchen is built so that 3 chefs can work together to prepare meals making for quick prep and easy clean up. The kayaks and paddle boards provided kept everyone busy and entertained. The host answered all questions quickly and promptly. A very comfortable and spacious home. Would not hesitate to stay again if we are in the area!

My family stayed here during a perfect weather week in August. The outside layout of the beautifully manicured yard with the sandy beach made it easy to enjoy the water. We had so much fun swimming out to the raft, kayaking, paddle boarding and boating. The hot tub was a luxury after a long day. The house was clean, comfortable, very very well stocked with supplies and very spacious! Lots of cozy areas to chill out with a big group like ours. The oversized kitchen (two fridges, two dishwashers, three trash bins) made meal prep and cleanup easy. The very sweet owner, Sue Anne, was always happily available to answer questions and help with little issues. The photos online are accurate and up to date. What a great vacation spot! We all had an amazing trip and would definitely book again!

Wonderful Extended Family Getaway

Our stay at Murray Lake was just what we were looking for. The house had more than enough room for our group of six adults, four teenagers and one child. The kids loved swimming and boating on the lake. The youngest enjoyed fishing and playing on the beach. Lots of outdoor games were available for everyone to enjoy. Sue Anne was so helpful and quickly answered any questions we had. The house was very clean and well stocked. Everyone agreed they’d like to return next year. Thank you for sharing your house with us Sue Anne.

Exactly as pictured and described

The home is beautiful. It is impeccably clean, neat and organized. We had great communication with the owner who has provided for all of anyones needs. The space fit our family of 14 very well. Eight adults and 6 children from infant to 8yrs. The beach and swim are was perfect for this group. The kitchen was huge. I can’t think of one thing we would have changed. We go somewhere as a family every year for a couple of nights as a summer family get together. This was the best one so far! Thanks to Sue Anne & her staff for making it an enjoyable stay for all of us!

If you imagine it. It is here.

We have been renting every summer for 12 years. This is the absolute BEST house ever… It has everything and the quality is fantastic. Very exquisite in all respects. Loved the lake, the house, the amenities, the very large and efficient kitchen…. Best ever…. Best bedding and multiple baths/showers. Must be professionally decorated with coordinating decor in every room… Lots of sitting areas, inside and out and all items in excellent condition. We all loved it and just couldn’t find anything wrong.. Highly recommended if you want to live like a queen or king….

Beautiful spot

The home was equipped with absolutely everything you could possible think of. Sue, our host went above and beyond to ensure me and my group of 11 friends had everything we needed. We had 5 couples in the group and everyone was very comfortable. We didn’t even use all the spaces in the home because it’s so spacious. The kitchen is amazing. Having 3 sinks, 2 dishwashers, 3 ovens made meal times a breeze. There were a couple of mishaps but Sue was very responsive. We had a day of golf at Arrowhead which was 5 minutes away from the house. We also visited the Painted Turtle -cider bar with barn animals and kitties! which was the only thing opened on Memorial Day (also 5 minutes away). Grand Rapids is only 30 minutes away, we ordered food one of the nights from Hop Cat. Grocery store is 15 minutes away. Great location, great house, the most quiet and clean lake we’ve been to, we’ll definitely come back.

Family vacation

We had a lovely visit. A few things happened...one of the GFI outlets had to be replaced which my son was able to do, we saw a mouse and discovered old food in the basement. We set traps. Then the tornado storm hit very close to us in Kent County! The generator did not automatically come on so my sons had to work on it to discover the oil cap had not been secured by whomever worked on it prior to us. But in spite of these issues, our host was extremely responsive and tried very hard to make everything right. She worked with us at every step and tried to make sure we were taken care of. We had a wonderful time.

This home is spacious and beautiful inside & out with everything you need to enjoy your family. Well equipped and comfortable. It is big enough for a large family to each have their own space. We enjoyed the well equipped large kitchen, 2 dining room tables and the open floor plan had plenty of seating. We had fun fishing off the dock, using the kayaks, paddle boards & playing in the sand.

The Lake House Stay

Our family of 11 adults between ages of 17-72 had a wonderful time. We stayed for 5 days in August 2022. The home was beautiful and spacious with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and a huge kitchen completely stocked with everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable and clean. The hostess, Sue Anne, was lovely to work with. There were a few things that needed repair like the deck railing and the shower floor in one bathroom, but the owner was glad to hear of it, and is making every attempt to fix everything. The lake was fun for everyone and it was very easy to rent a pontoon boat from a nearby location. We will definitely stay there again.
