Location: Little Traverse Lake, Northwest, Michigan, USA (25 miles West of Traverse City)
Accommodations: Cottage, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
Also know as the "Little Red Cottage" it was originally built as a boathouse and features a deck across the front that overhangs the water's edge. Step off the deck onto the dock, and jump into the beautiful turquoise Little Traverse Lake.
You can enjoy an unusual amount of privacy due to the property being bordered by vacant wooded lots on both sides.
A sandy lake bottom and shallow water 200' out makes for great swimming. Little Traverse Lake is known for perch fishing. Even on holiday weekends the lake activity is pretty low key.
Walk around the end of the lake into the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and stroll along Good Harbor Bay on Lake Michigan. Hike or ski the miles of trails a short walk or a quick car ride away.
Bring your own bedding/linens and towels. One queen and two twin size beds.
The Cottage/Boathouse is near wineries, golf courses, a block from North Restaurant and Michigan Traders store, art galleries, and much more. It's approximately 9 miles south to Glen Arbor and about the same, North to Leland.
