A True Four-Season Getaway ❄️🌸☀️🍂
While summer on Silver Lake is spectacular, many guests return specifically for fall colors, winter spa weekends, and quiet spring escapes. There’s nothing quite like soaking in the hot tub or sauna while snow falls on the lake, then retreating inside to a warm, cozy cottage. Outside of peak summer, Slice-of-Heaven TC is ideal for shorter stays, couples’ retreats, girls’ trips, milestone celebrations, and peaceful off-season getaways.

•🦟 Northern Michigan Tip: We regularly treat the property to help reduce mosquitoes and other seasonal insects. Like most wooded and lakeside areas throughout Northern Michigan, mosquito activity is naturally highest around dusk, especially during warm summer months. While treatments significantly reduce activity, we recommend bringing your favorite insect repellent if you plan to enjoy the backyard during the evening "mosquito hour."
