Welcome to your private lakeside retreat on Emerald Lake. Nestled on just under 3 acres, this stunning 5-bedroom, 4-bath home offers an exceptional blend of space, comfort, and natural beauty paired with a lifestyle that is truly unforgettable.

Chosen for its rare setting on the highly sought-after Emerald and Sylvan Lake chain, this property is surrounded by crystal-clear blue-green water, rolling hills, and mature trees. The home's positioning offers both breathtaking views of the lake and woods, along with a peaceful sense of privacy from the road.

With 39 feet of sandy frontage on this pristine all-sports lake, you'll enjoy endless days of boating, swimming, and fishing, plus boating to Turtle Island. Whether it's a sunset cruise, a fall color tour on the pontoon, or a quiet morning on the water, every day brings something special.

Inside, the home showcases rich hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, and expansive living spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The layout includes two full kitchens perfect for hosting guests or multi-generational living and abundant storage throughout.

The primary suite is a true sanctuary. Wake to glowing sunrises reflecting across the water, sip your morning coffee on the private deck, and unwind at night as moonlight shimmers across the lake. The en-suite bath features heated floors, adding a touch of everyday luxury.

What truly sets this property apart is the experience of living here. Each season offers its own beauty from migratory ducks resting on the lake in spring and fall, to eagles fishing nearby, to dazzling sunlit sparkles dancing across the water each afternoon. In winter, the landscape transforms into a peaceful, ever-changing snow globe.

Step outside to enjoy multiple decks and patios, ideal for entertaining or simply soaking in the serene surroundings. A spacious 2.5-stall garage provides plenty of room for vehicles and all your lake toys.

Beyond the home, the community adds even more charm. Generations of families and welcoming neighbors create a close-knit atmosphere, with annual traditions like Independence Day celebrations featuring paddle races, bike and boat parades, fireworks, and the beloved August Corn Roast. Private, low-speed roads encircling the lakes are perfect for walking, biking, running, or golf cart rides. With limited access to homeowners and their guests, the lakes remain peaceful even on busy summer weekends.

Located just minutes from downtown Newaygo's shops and restaurants and near the scenic 45 mile Dragon Trail for all biking, hiking and running needs, this property offers the perfect balance of seclusion, recreation, and convenience.

More than just a home, this is a LIFESTYLE where every season, every sunrise, and every moment on the water becomes a lasting memory.
