About this house rental
Blue Dog Lodge is the perfect four-season getaway located on the shores of Deer Lake, just five minutes from the slopes at Boyne Mountain Resort.
This spacious five-bedroom, three-bath lakefront home combines cozy lodge charm with modern updates, creating the ideal setting for families and friends to gather, relax, and enjoy Northern Michigan year-round. With breathtaking lake views, a private sandy beach, and room to comfortably sleep up to 14 guests, Blue Dog Lodge offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
The main level features a king bedroom with an ensuite bath and accessible shower, a queen bedroom with a toddler bed for families traveling with little ones. Upstairs, guests will find two additional king bedrooms, another queen bedroom, and a spacious bunk-style room with a king bed, twin bunks, and a twin trundle—perfect for kids or larger groups.
Step outside and enjoy your own private sandy beach on Deer Lake, ideal for swimming, sunbathing, fishing, boating, or simply relaxing by the water. Guests can enjoy complimentary use of kayaks, paddle boards, and a rowboat during their stay. Pontoon rentals are also available through third-party companies nearby. After a day on the lake or the slopes, unwind around the fire pit under the stars or relax in the outdoor sauna overlooking the patio.
Inside, the home offers an open-concept living area with soaring ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, and a 65-inch Smart TV with cable included. A sunroom and balcony nook provide stunning panoramic lake views, while games, puzzles, high-speed internet, refreshed furnishings, and new mattresses ensure a comfortable and entertaining stay for all ages.
Blue Dog Lodge also includes convenient features such as garage parking for two vehicles, additional driveway parking for a total of four vehicles, ski racks in the garage, and dog-friendly accommodations for your furry family members (non-refundable pet fee applies).
Ideally located, the home is only minutes from Boyne Mountain Resort, downtown Boyne City, and Lake Charlevoix. Within a short 15–30 minute drive, guests can explore the crystal-clear waters of Walloon Lake, the charming shops and wineries of Petoskey, and countless opportunities for skiing, hiking, boating, and year-round outdoor adventure.

We spent a wonderful week on Deer Lake! The house was impeccably clean. There was lots of space outside for sports and games. We enjoyed the dock for fishing and the kayaks and paddle board for exploring the lake. We would definitely stay again!

Everything with the place was great. If I had to complain about anything it would be that the sprinkler system went off every morning rain or shine and sprayed all over the cars in the driveway leaving water spots on them. But again the lodge itself was terrific.

Reviewer Comments:
The house and property were well kept up. A second air conditioner is needed for a very hot upstairs with three bedrooms, sleeping nine. We stayed at the end of June so cannot imagine the heat of summer. Amenities were excellent except for the grill. With no drip pan, the grease went through a large hole very near the propane tank.
