Unwind at Gingerbread Getaway, your idyllic vacation on Furnace Lake in the beautiful upper peninsula. Immerse yourself in the natural serenity and make lasting memories with your loved ones. Whether you crave a calm escape or thrilling outdoor pursuits, Gingerbread Getaway delivers exceptional comfort and excitement. Don't miss out on this unforgettable experience!

Experience the peaceful views of Furnace Lake from the comfort of your own doorstep. Wake up to the tranquil sounds of nature and enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the deck as you immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring natural world around you. Gingerbread Getaway offers a peaceful and secluded retreat where you can relax, rejuvenate, and rediscover your connection to nature.

We have a dock on the lake and provide a rowboat and 2 kayaks to enjoy a leisurely cruise or fishing on Furnace Lake (you'll need to bring your own fishing gear). We purchased this home with 1.5 baths, but we recently remodeled the half bath and made it a full bath by adding a beautiful new shower to it. This home also has a tankless water heater, so everyone gets a hot shower! We added a hot tub on the back deck to relax in after your day of adventures! Enjoy the beautiful views of the lake while the bubbling water washes away your cares.

There is lots of wildlife on and around the property. We have seen as many as 30 geese at a time! There are also a couple of sandhill cranes that often visit. Unfortunately with all the wildlife, they leave behind traces of their visits, lol. We do not recommend walking barefoot on the property!
