About this property

Charming Lakefront Cottage in one of the best locations on Burt Lake

This charming lakefront cottage on the east side of Burt Lake is available for weekly rentals in the summer (Sunday to Sunday) and shorter rentals in the spring and fall. The vintage cottage has a great open floorplan with two bedrooms downstairs and four bedrooms upstairs.

The featured attraction is the stunning lakeside porch which is perfect for watching the sunrise and relaxing in the shade. The screens on the porch were just replaced in July 2024.

The master bedroom downstairs has a queen bed and full en suite bathroom. The downstairs guestroom has a full size bunk bed perfect for two or more children to share. There is another half bath for the second bedroom and downstairs guests to use.

Upstairs there is another master suite with a king bed, a/c unit and en suite bathroom

There is another king bed in one of the upstairs guest rooms that shares a bathroom, "Jack and Jill" style, with another guest room that has a full size bed and an a/c window unit.

The fourth bedroom upstairs has plenty of room for 3 children to share with two twin beds, a full size bed and an a/c window unit.

The Great Room downstairs is perfect for hanging out as a group after a fun day on the lake with free wifi and board games.

The dinning room is large enough to sit 6 people comfortably for breakfast or dinner and there is another table out on the porch to sit another 6 guests.
