About this property

This newly renovated cottage home is located on the pristine North Shore of beautiful Bear Lake. It has 50' of water frontage directly out the slider door. The lake has a sandy bottom and is shallow for a good distance off the shore making it great for families to relax and enjoy the warm shallow water in the summer. Relax on the large deck and enjoy all the lake has to offer. The cottage has a 14' aluminum boat, two kayaks, two paddle boards, along with rafts to relax on in the water. There are also water toys for the kids. There is a bonfire pit where you can enjoy a fire on a chilly night and the cottage does have a TV and Wi-Fi !

The main cottage can sleep 8 people. The first bedroom has a king bed, a bunk bed, and a slider that opens up to the deck. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the living area has a fold out sofa. There is one full bathroom located in the main house with a shower. One towel provided per guest with hand towels.

There is also a guest area in the detached garage that can sleep 4 that has a full bedroom with bunk bed(full bed on the bottom and twin on top) and a separate full sized bed as well. There is also a 1/2 bath with sink and toilet out in that living area.

We feel that Bear Lake is a well kept secret. It is close to everything in Northwest Michigan while giving you the peace and seclusion of lake living at the same time. It is a fantastic spot for a family gathering, golf getaway, or just needed time away to enjoy the outdoors. The lake features 1,800 acres with a sandy bottom and little boat traffic. This makes it great for fishing, skiing/wakeboarding/tubing, boating/sailing, and swimming. This cottage is very well-kept with everything needed to make your vacation enjoyable!

No pets and no smoking please.

Please feel free to message me with any questions.

Thanks!

Perfect week on Bear Lake

Bear lake is a beautiful sandy bottom lake with lots of shallow water for the kids to float and play in. We brought our own pontoon and many times we had the lake to ourselves. With boating during the day and lake front campfires at night we only left once to golf Arcadia Bluffs (only 6 miles away). If you are not use to well water I would just bring plenty of water but we found everything we need at Saddle Up grocery store. Would recommend this house!!

Accommodations were great. I was glad to see there was basic amenities such as TP, kleene x, dish so

And other items, Although I did bring my own. We had a fruit fly hatching the last couple days so had to get rid of most of our fruit which was OK. Over all it was a wonderful time!
