About this property

Big Pine Cottage on Private Lake

Perfect getaway location - ONLY cottage on 10acre, sand bottom lake in the heart of Hiawatha National Forest. A tranquil quiet lake, no noises from civilization. Wake up to ducks swimming on the lake and birds chirping. A perfect gathering place for a multi-family and friend getaway. Relax in a spacious cottage with walk-out access to a private lake, yard, dock, and bonfire pit. Beautiful sandy beach for kids to play on and then jump into the water to refresh. We have two kayaks for you to enjoy during your stay!

Hike anywhere around the property/ off the property as it is completely surrounded by National forest. Enjoy the brightest stars at night.

More than lived up to our expectations
We were pleasantly surprised to see this property was the only one on a private lake. The Grandsons fished every chance they could catching and releasing probably 200 fish. They were small but kept them happy. We did Pictured Rocks twice on kayak and ship wreck tour, went to Mackinac Island (2 hour drive) and hiked many waterfalls. Everyone can’t wait to come up again.

Beautiful property, great for families
We stayed here with another family, kids ranged from 3 to 17 and everyone had a great time. The home is secluded and private yet within a 20-30 minute drive of many attractions. There’s also a small general store less than a mile down the road that has most of your pantry and fridge staples, ice cream, and pizza. The home is well stocked with a large kitchen and plenty of space for our two families. We had 10 people total and never felt crowded. The hosts are wonderful and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

Snowmobile trip
Nice secluded house, close to the trails. Room to park 6 trucks with 5 trailers was tight but we made it work. House was clean with a large master shower.

Great snowmobiling home-base.
Stayed for three nights on a sledding trip with friends. The place was clean and had plenty of beds, bathrooms and room for all of our gear. Parking is a little tight, but we made it work. It is very close to some great snowmobiling trails. Having a general store with gas 1/4 mile down road is really great. We had an issue with the septic and called the owners, they were SUPER responsive and fixed the issue within hours, could not have asked for a better response to a problem. We would absolutely recommend this property for snowmobiling destinations.
