The Shores on Walloon Lake is a collection of only six spacious custom cottages in Walloon Lake Village.

Each cottage has a westward panorama and is but a few steps from the water and nearby Tommy's on Walloon Lake Marina.

The design and workmanship of each are beyond all requirements and most expectations.

The plan is based on great respect for the past and appreciation of the natural grandeur of our Walloon. Through uncomplicated and maintenance-free living, The Shores allow you to reside in harmony with the village and the lake. Every outside maintenance task—including your dock—is taken care of. Never rake, shovel, sweep, cut, plant, prune, clean or wash!
