About the host
Hosted by Ken Zander
Our Family has been on this Awesome Lake for over 30 Years. A few years ago we bought the little cottage next door and completely remodeled it. We tore it down to the studs and installed all new flooring, windows, roof, siding and heating and cooling. We have been using this place for Family and friends overflow. I recently retired and we have decided to open our little place up for rental on a limited basis.
We love to boat, fish, watersports, volleyball etc. Along with sitting and relaxing and watching the Eagles, Osprey and Loons on one of the best kept secrets in Northern MI (South Dease Lake).

Why they chose this property
South Dease Lake is 1 of only a few Private Lakes in the Hale area which boasts over 65 Lakes. Which means it is often quiet and peaceful and often times during the week we are the only boat out on the Lake. South Dease Lake is an All Sports and is great for fishing, boating (tubing, water skiing, wake boarding etc). We Love this Lake and the area. It is rural and quiet and the town of Hale is less than a 10-minute drive away and has pretty much everything you need (Grocery, hardware, gas/ice)
What makes this property unique
We are one of the few properties on the Lake without steps down to the water. We also are one of the few places with a nice sandy beach into the water (no seawall) for sitting and relaxing or playing corn hole, volleyball etc.
