Drive on up and "Breathe Bellaire"...
Just 7 mins from Shanty Creek/Schuss, you'll be greeted inside by a warm, cozy home due to the in-floor heating throughout the entire 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It's quite spacious and with the custom fireplace stonework and wood flooring, you're sure to feel at home away from home. We're in downtown, so you can walk from the front door to all of downtown Bellaire's fun, like Short's Brewery, Mammoth Distilling, BeeWell Cider etc. The whole group will enjoy easy access to everything from the central location.
Relax in this spacious and beautiful home, ready for your group to spread out among 4 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms. There's books and book nooks, board games with fun nights awaiting, and reclining comfy couches ready for movie night.
There's no "TO-DO" list when you check out. That's what the cleaning fee is for! Our awesome cleaners take care of everything so when it's time to check out, you don't have to worry about scrubbing the baseboards and sweeping the driveway :)
There's much more with hiking and biking trails nearby, Torch Lake Cellars Winery, and of course the beautiful lakes and waterways...

It seats 6+ at a time, and you can pour water on the rocks with bucket and ladle to create a gentle steam. There is even a tub for cold plunges if you're ready for it!
The fire pit area offers the biggest Solo Stove we could get. Once you get the fire going, it is smokeless and is a real treat to hang out at- no dodging the smoke! With adjustable adirondack chairs and string lights around the fire pit area, it's a great spot to relax between sauna sessions and hangout at the end of the day.
