About this property

Lakefront Vacation Home W/ Large Yard and FirePit

Relax in the comfort of this all season, lakefront vacation home. This 3-Bedroom, 1½-Bath home accomodates 6 adults with all of the amenities of home. Queen beds in all 3 bedrooms. The property is located on a large wooded lot with a wrap-around deck overlooking 200 feet of shoreline on Lake Arrowhead.Spring / Summer- Morel mushroom hunting, nature walks, biking, swimming, boating, fishing, hiking and golf. Gaylord is known as the 'Golf Mecca of the Midwest.' The area features over 20 world class courses. Most are less than 30 minutes away. Fall / Winter- Beautiful fall colors, downhill and cross county skiing and snowmobiling. Gaylord is centrally located inside Michigan's 'Snowbelt', receiving abundant snowfall each winter. Gaylord's trail system connects thousands of miles of marked and groomed trails.

Family Activities-: Keeping the kids happy can make or break a vacation, but when visiting Otsego County, boredom is never a consideration. When the weather won't cooperate or the little ones have just plain run out of things to do, that's when it's time to venture out and discover the many attractions that can put smiles back on their faces. The Otsego County Sportsplex, where kids and grownups can swim in an Olympic-size pool or rent a pair of skates an take to the ice for 'wintertime' fun, even as the sidewalks are sizzling outside. Adjacent to the Sportsplex is the Energy Outlet, a quaint park filled with slides, swings and climbing equipment, all designed to delight and distract the kids from any thoughts of boredom. Throughout the park are structures embedded with information and etchings of the dinosaur age, and surrounding all the fun stuff is a paved walking track.

and more family activities...: At Call of the Wild, fun and learning go hand in hand, and it's almost a sure thing that kids want to go back again and again. After touring the outdoors, vistors can step outside the museum to ride on a go-kart or play a round of miniature golf. Checking out the wildlife museum is great fun, but to catch a glimpse of the real thing, a stop at the elk-viewing area at the end of Grandview Boulevard (just east across South Otsego Ave. from Wiscousin St) will afford you a close-up view of North Michigan wildlife. If you still have energy after all that, give some through to seeing a movie at Gaylord Cinema on M-32 West, which shows several different features daily.

Another great week at the lake!
Property is always well appointed and clean. We love the quiet, end-of-the-lane setting, as do our puppies. The fishing was really good this week, lots of bass and large pike in the area around the property. This is seven straight years for us and we will be back next year.

Absolutely perfect place to relax and enjoy the quiet outdoors.
We were so extremely happy with this property. It offered everything and more that we were hoping for, swimming, kayaking, hiking and bonfires! Our labs LOVED it too. We’ll be back! If we could we’d give it 10 out of 5 stars!!

Lots of privacy!
I highly recommend this house. It was clean, comfortable, and a short 10 min drive into Gaylord. The privacy of this property is what really stood out. It's at the end of the street with no neighbors on the left side, which is where the fire pit is located. Lots of split wood if you like to have fires at night. The lake is beautiful and clean. The owner, Mitch, was very responsive. Made a 45 minute trip up to Mackinaw city and took the ferry to the Island for a day. Was a great experience! Definitely rent bikes and ride the entire road around the island.

Plenty of room to hang out with our dogs by the beautiful lake, great fire pit for socializing, and convenient to large expanses of public lands and small towns for supplies. Everything we needed for a weeklong stay was on hand.

Relaxing, comfortable stay!
This house is at the end of a quiet street and at least when we were there, no one was in the house next door. We enjoyed the fire pit in the mornings, kayaks in the afternoons, and fishing off the dock. The beds are very comfortable, the kitchen had what we needed (bring your own coffee!), and we would absolutely come back. Day trips to Old Mission Peninsula (wine tasting), Traverse City and Mackinac City were easy and beautiful drives.

Relaxing vacation
Great place to stay! Kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Very tidy place. Plenty of towels! Easy communication with owner. Loved that we could park right by the house. Enjoyed the wrap around deck everyday! Golfed twice at The Natural. Great course and not overly packed and fairly close. Great trip. We would book again.

We had a fantastic time in our Arrowhead Lake Cabin! It was so peaceful being on the lake. Loved the wrap around deck and having it partially covered was nice too! Close to places like Traverse City and Petosky to take day trips to! Cabin was perfect for our family!

Great vacation spot!
My family and I had a great time during our week at the cabin! It was pretty well cleaned (could prob use a deep clean at some point) and very nicely stocked with mostly everything we needed. Although it doesn’t have a/c it is equipped with fans in all the rooms throughout the house. The lake is beautiful and the location of the house is very private. We enjoyed the provided kayaks. Side of house with bonfire put is huge! Plenty of room for outdoor games. We would definitely stay here again. We also rented a pontoon through A&R rental on the lake and it was great!

We are regulars at this property and hope to keep coming back every year. The property itself is great, but the friendliness of the locals and the other families on the lake make it a special place to visit. Very dog friendly location at the end of the lane.
