About the property

From the indoor appliances to the outdoor furnishings, this home was updated and remodeled to maximize both indoor and outdoor living spaces. Complete with kayaks, a sauna, an ice plunge, firepit, adirondack chairs, a multi-tier deck and a lakefront view of Round Lake! A pontoon boat rental is available upon request.

Round Lake Retreat is a modern, warm, and cozy lake cottage with highly polished aesthetics and classic up-north "lake cottage" elements. Enjoy the comfort of a modern renovation in a classic summer lake resort association while being surrounded by nature and wildlife. Perfectly designed for year-round use, whether you find yourself roasting marshmallows by the fire, gazing at the stars, listening to the birds chirp, hearing the frogs croak at night or curled up inside watching the snow fall on a winter wonderland.

Evoking a quintessential “up north” lake cottage with modern furnishings so you can relax with maximum comfort whether you stay inside or create an outdoor adventure. Your stay will be an unforgettable experience where you can reconnect with your significant other, family, kids or lifelong friends.

Located in Central Michigan, Round Lake Retreat sits in the middle of an iconic lake community adjacent to Round Lake, a part of the Canadian Lakes Chain, just outside of Mecosta, Michigan. Nearby are the cities of Big Rapids, Stanwood, Remus, Morley, Rodney and Barryton. Central Michigan is the perfect destination at only an hour from Grand Rapids, two and a half hours from Detroit, and three hours from Chicago.

⭐️ 5 STAR HOSTS ⭐️

Forest & Flow Retreats focuses on unique homes and experiences so our guests can build memories for years to come. Over 15% of our bookings come from repeat guests, something we are very proud of. As you may have guessed from our name, we target natural properties with water or forest features that create a calm, peaceful and tranquil environment far removed from the hustle of day to day life.

We are avid outdoor enthusiasts and believe in protecting public lands through conservation efforts and the associated funds raised through hunting, fishing, and orv licenses.

We believe our homes and public lands should be a safe space for people from all walks of life, regardless of age, race, gender or ethnicity.

Each year, we donate a portion of our earnings to public land trusts and / or conservation efforts so that our waters and land can be protected for years to come.

We have hosted tens of thousands of guests over the years across our properties, helping family and friends have a memorable experience!
