About this property
The Henry Lodge: Relaxing Up North retreat close to ORV trails, lake, and bar.
The Henry Lodge is the perfect location for a quiet, “Up North” getaway. With access to miles of ORV trails just minutes away, 13 miles of hiking and biking trails at the nearby Ogemaw Hills Pathway, and a DNR boat launch giving you the beautiful Clear Lake as your playground, your outdoor adventures have no limits.
Not feeling as adventurous in the nature department? Check out the shops at the Tanger Outlets, sample some wine, catch a movie at the local West Branch Cinema, and browse through antiques. Explore the area golf courses while catching up with the crew and end your day at the delicious Clear Lake Bar, within walking distance of the Henry Lodge. If you forgot anything at home or just want some hand-dipped ice cream, stop by the Clear Lake Party store (located next to CLB).
This cabin has 3 bedrooms with queen sized beds, a hide-a-bed couch that expands into a queen mattress, and a full bath. Each bedroom is equipped with a tv. Two bedrooms have a remote-controlled heat unit. There are also smaller table/window fans for guests that enjoy sleeping with a breeze. There is a window A/C unit in the living room as well as electric heat.
The kitchen is stocked with dishes, pans, a Keurig coffee maker, a full-sized fridge, oven, and microwave.
In addition to the full kitchen, there is a propane grill available for outdoor cooking. Roast s’mores over the fire and have the full vacation experience while looking up at the stars.
On those rainy days, you can enjoy the living room television with log-in access to all of your favorite streaming services and play a friendly round of poker or pull out the classic family board games.
No pets please. No smoking in the house. No parties.
Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns and we'd be happy to help!

About the host
Hosted by Steve & Jessica Marsh
We are originally from Farmington Hills, we basically move up to Clear Lake every summer because we are in love with everything surrounding the area. We love off-roading frequently riding side by sides, ATVs, and the occasional dirt bikes. It is what really drew us to the area. We also love the boating and fishing in the area. The perfect day is taking the ATVs out in the morning, getting covered in dirt and mud, then cooling off afterwards with a swim in clear lake. After that, grabbing dinner and drinks at clear lake bar, then wrapping up either on a boat fishing or around a camp fire.
We are excited to be hosting and to share our slice of paradise with others.

Why they chose this property
We started coming to the Clear Lake area in late 2020 and absolutely fell in love with it. We came up here from metro Detroit to ORV then discovered the beauty and fun of Clear Lake and all the areas around it. It is the perfect middle ground to experience all of the up north excitement.
What makes this property unique
You can really experience the history of up north if you look closely at the Henry Lodge. One of the bedroom walls is still the exterior logs from the original cabin built in the 50s with one of the original windows which leads to the bedroom next door. You can imagine what it was like when it was the original hunting cabin with the outhouse still standing in the back corner of the property. The cabin has since been updated to have modern amenities but you can still easily see what it once was.
The cabin is also perfectly located close enough to Clear Lake Bar to be able to spend a few hours there having great drinks and still be able to safely walk back home. If you are into off-roading, we have an off road map hanging on the front door so you can map out your journey. With close access in all directions to hundreds of miles of off road trails, there's no need to load up the toys and drive somewhere for a weekend of fun.
