Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 11-acre waterfront land parcel is served by an easement leading to Lake Michigan, where there is public beach access with stairs. The property is currently operated as The Wayfarer Lodgings, a family-run business with a family home featuring 3 to 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a library, along with 10 cabin rentals open from May through October.

The land is zoned R3, which allows the property to be divided into 11 one-acre buildable lots. The surrounding area includes nearby lakes and waterways referenced in the remarks, including Betsie Lake, Betsie River, Crystal Lake, and upper and lower Herring lakes.

For buyers considering either continuation of the seasonal lodging operation or a future lot development approach under the current zoning, the site offers both direct beach access via easement and an established cabin rental setup during the May through October season.
