Water Activities & Dock Info
The 200-foot dock invites you to relax, fish, or simply enjoy the serene surroundings. Many guests rave about the excellent fishing right off the dock.
Like many Northern Michigan lakes, Silver Lake is currently experiencing lower water levels. The water near our dock can be shallow, and some experience navigating shallow waters is recommended.
Guests are welcome to use the dock, but please note that water levels can fluctuate, and we cannot guarantee docking suitability for all boat types at all times. If you prefer, we’ve partnered with a trusted local company that offers daily boat delivery and pickup from the nearby public launch (just 3 minutes away). This is an excellent choice even for multi-day rentals—they’ll handle launching and retrieving the boat each day so you can relax and enjoy the lake. We also have plenty of parking space in our driveway, should you choose to bring a bigger boat and launch from the public boat launch.
Reach out anytime—we’re happy to assist with boat rental coordination!
Swimming is best enjoyed from a boat or by kayaking to nearby islands. The shoreline near the home has natural vegetation and is not ideal for swimming.
Enjoy peaceful water activities with the provided equipment:
3 single kayaks
1 tandem kayak
1 canoe
Life jackets included
All watercraft are used at your own risk. We strongly recommend wearing life jackets at all times.
Pet Policy
Pets are welcome on a case-by-case basis with prior approval and an additional fee of $100 per stay, per pet.
