THE FULL PICTURE
Silver Oaks can be reserved as a complete private estate, the entire property held exclusively for your group. Five luxury cottages, 4,560 square feet of living space, and 167 feet of private Silver Lake frontage across 2.6 professionally landscaped acres, minutes from downtown Traverse City.
When the full property is reserved, Silver Oaks becomes something singular: a private Northern Michigan lakefront estate with the scale to hold a large group and the intimacy to make it feel like yours alone.

Who stays
For those seeking the exclusivity of an entire lakefront estate.
01
Families & multi-generational gatherings
Five private cottages allow each generation to enjoy its own space and privacy, while the lakefront, docks, and shared grounds create a natural setting for time spent together.
02
Multi-family vacations
An ideal arrangement for families traveling together, with separate cottages providing independence and comfort, and a private waterfront estate to enjoy as one group.
03
Wedding parties & families
While Silver Oaks does not host weddings or receptions, the estate is exceptionally suited for wedding parties and families gathering around celebrations elsewhere in the region. Reserved exclusively for one group, it offers privacy, comfort, and ample accommodations in a refined lakefront setting.
The Silver Oaks Experience
Every stay at Silver Oaks includes access to 167 feet of private Silver Lake frontage, two docks, paddleboards, kayaks, beach gear, grilling patios, and beautifully landscaped shared grounds.
Each cottage is stocked with Grown Alchemist bath amenities, premium kitchen essentials, and high-quality linens — because the details of a Northern Michigan lakefront stay should be as refined as the setting.
Minutes from downtown Traverse City, Silver Oaks guests have access to a curated partner network offering private chef service, on-site massage, pontoon rental, concierge grocery delivery, and wine and beer tours throughout the region. Many partners are reserved months in advance. We recommend coordinating at the time of booking.
