Listing Detail

Description:

Welcome to Rockwell Lake Lodge, a rare opportunity to own nearly 670 acres of pristine Northern Michigan wilderness with a private 40-acre lake at its heart. This secluded retreat combines unmatched natural beauty with extensive improvements, offering endless recreational and lifestyle possibilities. The land is a diverse mix of rolling hills, mature hardwoods, planted pines, wetlands, and elevated ridges overlooking Rockwell Lake, home to largemouth bass, bluegill, and walleye. Abundant wildlife thrives across the property, including whitetail deer, turkey, black bear, and grouse, making it a true sportsman’s paradise. The centerpiece is the 11,800+ sq. ft. Rockwell Lodge, built in 2007, featuring 10 private hotel-style rooms with en-suite baths, fireplaces, and balconies, along with a grand lobby, conference and dining areas, and a full commercial kitchen. Additional lodging includes four two-story cabins (2007–08) with bunk space, classrooms, and apartments, plus a renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence that was recently updated in 2021. A 2,400 sq. ft. heated maintenance building with carport and supporting outbuildings provide ample storage and operational support. Property infrastructure is extensive: propane heat, multiple generators (up to 150 kW for full lodge backup), fiber internet, security system with cameras, and private well and septic systems. Event capacity includes well over 100 guests indoors or outdoors, with a lakeside patio, firepit, trails, docks, and parking for 25+ vehicles. The property is perimeter fenced and includes forestry resources, and over 10 miles of mapped trails. With nearly every summer weekend booked for weddings and retreats, Rockwell Lodge is proven for hospitality yet versatile enough for use as a private estate, corporate retreat, hunting and fishing lodge, or long-term conservation investment.
