Property Description
Welcome to your ultimate retreat in Bellaire, Michigan, where scenic beauty meets unmatched comfort and endless activities await. Chain of Lakes Escape is nestled right on the Intermediate River and offers room for up to 17 guests, making it the perfect destination for large families, groups of friends, or multi-generational gatherings. With 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 3,400 square feet of beautifully designed space, the home is thoughtfully equipped to make your stay unforgettable.
As you step inside the Chain of Lakes Escape, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting interior designed with your comfort in mind. The living area, centered around a wood-burning fireplace, is perfect for cozy evenings after a day of exploring. The fully equipped kitchen is a dream for any chef, boasting stainless steel appliances, a Keurig and drip coffee maker, a Crockpot, and all the tools you need, down to the spices.
The sleeping arrangements are designed with flexibility and comfort to accommodate up to 17 guests with ease. The primary bedroom features a luxurious king bed, perfect for relaxing after a long day. Bedroom 2 offers two queen beds, providing plenty of space for couples or siblings to share. Bedroom 3 combines a queen bed with a twin bunk bed, ideal for families with younger children. Bedroom 4 features a twin-over-full bunk bed, and Bedroom 5 is equipped with two twin-over-twin bunk beds—perfect for kids or teens. For additional sleeping space, the game room includes two full-size sleeper sofas. Whether you're here with kids, teens, or adults, everyone will find their own comfortable space to rest and recharge.
Chain of Lakes Escape offers endless entertainment both inside and out. The game room is a haven for fun, with a pool table, foosball tables, shuffleboard, and a retro 60-game video arcade table. Each bedroom, as well as the living room, is equipped with a Smart TV, so everyone can enjoy their favorite shows and movies.
We’re excited to announce the addition of a brand-new hot tub, the perfect spot to unwind after a day of adventure. Whether you're soaking under the stars or enjoying the crisp morning air, the hot tub adds an extra layer of relaxation to your stay.
Step outside to enjoy the best of Bellaire’s natural beauty. The home features direct access to the Intermediate River, complete with a private dock where you can launch one of the seven provided kayaks. Bring your own boat or rent one from a nearby marina to fully enjoy the stunning chain of lakes, including the iconic Torch Lake. Launch your boat at one of the convenient sites just across the way and easily dock it at the property’s private dock for the duration of your stay. The spacious deck is perfect for morning coffee, while the fire pit with solar lighting creates a magical spot for evening gatherings. There's even a treehouse to delight the kids and plenty of outdoor seating to soak in the serene views.
When it’s time to explore, Bellaire has something for everyone. In the winter, hit the slopes at Schuss Mountain, just a short drive away. In the summer, bring your boat and take advantage of the Chain of Lakes or spend the day at public beach access nearby. Walk to downtown Bellaire to explore charming shops and enjoy local favorites like Short’s Brewing Company, Hello Vino, or Ruthann's Gourmet Bakery. The location also offers quick access to hiking trails, fishing spots, and other outdoor adventures.
Whether you’re looking to relax in the quiet of nature, hit the slopes, or enjoy summer on the water, Chain of Lakes Escape is your perfect destination.

Best Vacation
The river house was so much fun! Perfect size for our large family of 13. We rented a pontoon boat for a two days and had a blast on Torch Lake! We would love to come here again some day

Great place! Lots of room and activities within the house for larger groups. Walking distance to downtown Bellaire and a short drive to Shanty Creek Resort was perfect. Very responsive hosts!

Family Holiday
Our extended family stayed here for a week and had a great time! Close to Shuss/Shanty Creek and Boyne and close to town. When we were in the house there was a lot to keep the kids busy. Great experience, highly recommended!

Perfect getaway
Had a group of 8-10 guys for a bachelor party. We spent most of our days out on the water. However, this house was more than enough space for all of us. Plenty of places to sleep, great kitchen, nice deck. Only a 10 min walk to downtown Bellaire. Perfect location.

Fabulous property for a multi family get away.
We had the best time! The house is located in a great neighborhood that is quiet and peaceful. The best part of the house is the layout and the game area on the lower level. The kids loved it and the adults really enjoyed the kitchen and living area. We would definitely stay again. BB
