Wake up to Lake 27, brew a Keurig, and walk barefoot onto 300 feet of private sandy beach. Launch kayaks, paddle boards, jet skis, or the boat from your dock — Lake 27 is all-sports, so bring the toys.
Hot tub and BBQ on the deck, fire pit down on the beach for s'mores after dark. Inside: pool table that converts to dining, NBA Jam in the Crew Room, smart TVs throughout.
Built for family reunions, multi-gen trips, and friend groups. 15 min to Gaylord, 20 to Treetops & Boyne.

Retreat 27 is managed by Haze Retreats. We're available by message anytime you need anything, and our local team can be on-site quickly if something needs hands-on attention — but we respect your privacy and won't drop by unannounced. A digital guidebook with house details, local recommendations, and check-out instructions is shared before arrival.

Located on the shores of Lake 27 on a quiet lakefront road in Gaylord, Michigan — the heart of Northern Michigan's four-season playground. Minutes from downtown Gaylord's shops and restaurants. The area offers year-round activities including golf, skiing, hiking, snowmobiling, fishing, and access to dozens of inland lakes.


Self check-in via smart lock — you'll receive your access code before arrival. The entire home is yours, no shared spaces.


Outdoor & Lakefront
Step out the slider and you're on the deck — hot tub overlooking Lake 27, BBQ ready for steak nights. Down a short path: 300 feet of your own private sandy beach, fire pit waiting for s'mores after dark, and a private dock loaded with kayaks and paddle boards. Lake 27 is all-sports, so bring the boat.
– Deck with hot tub overlooking Lake 27
– BBQ with grilling utensils on the deck
– 300' of private sandy beach
– Fire pit on the beach
– Private dock for kayaks, paddle boards, boats, and jet skis
– Wooded lakefront lot

Also worth knowing: Lake 27's water level is currently higher than usual, so the beach is noticeably smaller than it appears in the photos. The dock, swim access, and waterfront are all fully usable - there's just less sand between the water and the yard right now.

Coming to Retreat 27
We're reinvesting in this property over the next year. Planned for winter 2026: a bar and deck hangout area. Planned for the 2027 season: a new driveway, new landscaping across the lot, and a new sand beach at the waterfront.
Everything described above is here and ready today — these are additions to a complete, fully equipped house, not work in progress. Northern Michigan weather drives the schedule, so we describe them by season rather than by date.
If your stay falls in late 2026 and any of this work would overlap your visit, we'll tell you in advance.
