Top Luxury Vacation Rentals in Michigan

Now that the holidays are over and all the decorations are put away until next year, it's time to plan your summer vacation.

Vacation rentals in our state are available, and you could book a vacation spot basically anywhere. In Michigan, since we are blessed with lakes from little lakes to great lakes, there are plenty of options. That being said, I decided to focus on the luxury vacation rentals.

It has always been a dream of mine to book a large rental house and fill it with my children and their boyfriends and friends for an amazing week at the beach.

Using the site VRBO, I found there is no shortage of places to rent.

This VBRO rental has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and offers views of Grand Marais and Lake Superior. It rents for $525 a night.

The Inn Like a Lamb house is located in beautiful South Haven, featuring 6 bedrooms 5 bathrooms and 1 half bath.  This rental also has a swimming pool, hot tub, fire pit a game room and bicycles for use. The Inn Like a Lamb house rents for $673 a night.

This next luxury rental is the Twin Pines Retreat. Nestled on the narrows of Lake Leelanau and offers 3 bedrooms 2 baths and rents for $478 a night.

The Charlevoix Mushroom Thatch House. With this very charming home you are right across the street from the beach and can walk the short distance to downtown. Featuring 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms this unique place rents for $1,000 a night.

This luxury rental is located right on the Lake Michigan and the views from the window filled home and the terrace are stunning.  Located in South Haven this home offers 5 bedrooms 4 baths, it sleeps 12 also offers a lakefront hot tub (to go along with the view), fire pit and has an outdoor kitchen. This rental, which is my favorite, gives you the opportunity to spend as much time outdoors as possible and make some amazing family memories.

It is cold and snowy now in Michigan but now is the best time to start planning your dream summer vacation.
