Residenza Unifamiliare A Gwinn

Nestled on more than 10 private acres along the shores of Bass Lake just southeast of Gwinn, Honalee Retreat is a rare legacy property where nature, artistry, and adventure exist in perfect harmony. Created over decades beginning in 1996, this extraordinary waterfront compound was thoughtfully handcrafted to inspire connection, reflection, and unforgettable experiences. Surrounded by towering woods and the restorative beauty of lake life, the retreat centers around a stunning 3-bedroom, 3-bath log-and-stone chalet rich with custom character and artisan detail. Step inside from the expansive lake-facing deck and immediately feel transported by the hand-painted Northwoods murals, warm textures, and timeless craftsmanship woven throughout the home. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen spaces are filled with natural light and panoramic lake views through oversized windows, creating an atmosphere that is both grand and welcoming. A striking wood-burning stove framed in authentic Lake Superior stone anchors the main gathering area, offering warmth and ambiance through every season. The private primary suite encompasses nearly 900 square feet of tranquil living space, complete with its own sitting room, Lake Superior stone fireplace, spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and custom shower, and an oversized walk-in closet. Additional features include a sauna, library/home office, loft bedrooms, and a breathtaking “Tree of Life” architectural centerpiece whose natural branches form the loft railing above. Beyond the main residence, Honalee unfolds into a one-of-a-kind retreat experience. Guests can gather beneath the gazebo to watch sunsets, share stories around two fire pits, or stay in the charming Bunkie, whimsical Treehouse, or seasonal Tipi accommodations tucked among the hemlocks. A separate RV drive with power hookup offers even more flexibility for hosting family and friends. The property’s private sandy beach, dock, and crystal-clear frontage provide effortless access to boating, swimming, waterskiing, and fishing on Bass Lake’s 273-acre all-sports waters. For year-round recreation, nearby ATV and snowmobile trails make this an exceptional four-season destination. A spacious 60x30 pole barn with a 22x30 loft offers abundant storage for recreational equipment, vehicles, and workshop space and social area. Despite its peaceful seclusion, Honalee Retreat is conveniently located less than 15 minutes from Sawyer International Airport, making travel simple for guests arriving from near or far. More than a home, Honalee is an experience — a private sanctuary where craftsmanship, creativity, and the beauty of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula come together to create something truly unforgettable.
