About this property

Evergreen Cottage in Lake Ann

Beautiful vacation home located right where everyone wants to be! 3 full bath and 3 bedrooms that can accommodate 10 comfortably. We are in a quiet setting on 10 wooded acres, 3 miles from the sweet little village of Lake Ann. Perfectly located between Traverse City and Sleeping Bear National Lake Shore. Spend a day exploring the Lake Michigan beaches, canoeing/tubing the rivers, hiking/biking nearby trails, the charming local villages, golf courses, horse back riding, and take the kids to the Cherry Bowl Drive Inn Theater in Honor. Reserve the Magic Shuttle Bus just around the corner, to pick you up at the door and take you to the many wineries and breweries. We're a winter wonderland too! Bring your skis, snowshoes, and snowmobiles. We are within minutes to all of the trails and ski hills. Come back to the house to relax on the covered porch or patio. Build a fire and grill out. Just enjoy!! Also, check out our rental property next door on Pikes Lake! The Hemlock Cottage vrbo # 2009551. Sleeps 10. This is available year around. During the summer months we rent from Sunday to Sunday. (June through August).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was an outstanding rental. I have rented many houses and this was the best I've ever stayed in. It was very comfortable, decorated nicely and had EVERYTHING we needed. I was surprised how well the kitchen was equiped. There were seven women staying there. We all agreed that it was the perfect place to stay.
