5 Bedroom House in Onaway
Discover your private escape on the shores of beautiful Black Lake, where luxury, space, and the best of Northern Michigan come together. Set along 100 feet of private sandy beachfront, this spacious five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath lake home offers an exceptional four-season retreat for families and friends seeking both relaxation and adventure.
Your Private Black Lake Escape
Wake up to the beauty of Black Lake and spend your days enjoying nearly 10,000 acres of pristine water just steps from the home. Your private sandy beach and dock create the perfect setting for swimming, boating, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply unwinding along the shoreline.
Bring your boat or jet skis—or rent locally—with convenient boat-launch access nearby. Watercraft can be anchored directly in front of the property, and a pontoon boat lift is provided for guest use.
As evening approaches, gather around the outdoor fire pit, relax beside the gas fire table on the deck, grill dinner outdoors, and enjoy peaceful Northern Michigan evenings overlooking the lake.
Spacious Luxury for Family & Friends
Designed with larger groups in mind, the home features five bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and multiple living and gathering spaces, allowing everyone to enjoy time together while still having plenty of room to retreat and relax.
Throughout the home, high-speed fiber internet keeps you connected, while Smart TVs in every bedroom and the main living spaces allow guests to enjoy their favorite streaming services.
A fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed for leisurely breakfasts, family dinners, and evenings entertaining at the lake. A whole-home instant hot-water system and on-site washer and dryer add even more convenience for extended stays.
Adventure in Every Season
This is much more than a summer lake house. Located just a short distance from Black Mountain Recreation Area, the property places you near miles of trails and some of Northern Michigan’s best year-round outdoor recreation.
Spend spring, summer, and fall exploring the area by ORV, hiking or biking the trails, fishing Black Lake, or enjoying days on the water. During winter, bring your snowmobiles for incredible trail riding, enjoy cross-country skiing, or experience Black Lake’s renowned winter fishing.
Whatever the season, adventure is never far from your front door.
