This house is a true ski-in/ski-out home for winter skiing at Shanty Creek's Schuss Mountain, and a wonderful lodge retreat for spring, summer and fall. Family gatherings, friends or just an opportunity to chill out and enjoy a great view! This classic Hamill chalet is the perfect place to enjoy a vacation away.
You can ski directly from Queens Corner to the door of the lodge and enjoy great views from the decks and large windows in the living area. In the summer, you can see for miles. It's just a minute to the 6 local golf courses and Bellaire (Shorts, Hello Vino, Corner Bistro etc) - all less than 10 minutes from the house.
With 3100 sq ft. and 4 bedrooms, the home sleeps 13 in beds. It offers 3 full baths, an open living/dining/kitchen on the main floor and a family room and sauna in the lower level, 2 flat screen TVs, wood burning fireplace and an outdoor fire-pit, laundry, cable and wifi. Kitchen is fully stocked with spices, condiments, coffee maker, waffle iron and crock pot! We want this to be your home away from home.
Centrally located to Traverse City, Petoskey, Charlevoix, Torch Lake, you can feel like a local and enjoy lots of nearby day trip activities including winery tours (Roadrunner Tours in Bellaire our local go to tour bus), hiking, mountain biking, skiing of all kinds, fishing or simple relaxation while grilling on the fabulous deck. Boat rentals are nearby, including power boats, personal watercraft, canoes and kayaks.
Schuss Mountain and the surrounding area gets a lot of snow. We make every effort to keep the driveway plowed when it snows, however the roads can get deep snow and 4WD is highly recommended if not required during the ski season.
**Please note cancellation policy. Being one of the very few slope side larger homes we book 100% capacity well in advance during the busy season (winter/summer). IF a cancellation cannot be avoided, we will do our best to try and rebook. If we are able to rebook, we will refund 100% (minus admin fee).
