Lake Details:
ManorWood is located on Dyer Lake. This is a private, and quiet 35 acre lake with 250 ft of private frontage. This lake is good for fishing and other silent sports. While Dyer lake is a clean, clear lake, the lake bottom is too soft to be concidered a swimming lake. Less than a mile down the road is the boat launch to Bass Lake, an all sports lake. There are two really nice swimming lakes with great sandy beaches just minutes away: Long Lake (3000 acre lake)only 6 minutes away and the bay of Lake Michigan, only 10 minutes away. You can moor your boat off shore on the bay all week. Our guests can have the best of both worlds; their own private fishing lake with 250 ft of private frontage and easy access to three area all sports lakes as well as Lake Michigan. Email us so we can help you Mapquest to locate ManorWood in relation to the lakes. The house is across the road from the lake frontage, but the road is a dead-end road with little traffic.
