About this property

Modern Lakefront Home on Burt

This is a custom built home on the northeast side of Burt Lake. Located near the tip of Greenman's Point, you will have some of the most spectacular sunsets the lake has to offer. The 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home has an open floor plan featuring a large gourmet kitchen, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The windows surrounding the home make it feel as though you are sleeping on top of the water. Views of the lake can be seen from almost every room in the home.

Just 15 minutes from Burt Lake State Park, 30 minutes from Petoskey and 20 minutes from Mackinaw City. The house is located a few minutes from the North Central State Trail (“rail trail”), which is an excellent biking/hiking trail. Area ski hills are just a half an hour away.

The house sleeps sixteen in beds (However we only allow a max of 10 adults!) Both main floor bedrooms have privacy bathrooms. Upstairs bath is a three room bath, separating the toilet, shower, and main sink so all can be used at once. A fully equipped kitchen comes complete with all of the amenities needed for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner: gas range and oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, drip coffee maker and bean grinder, toaster oven, and an assortment of pots and pans. A gas grill is also available for your outdoor grilling. Utility room has front loading washer and dryer. Fire pit for your evening, lakeside fires. Free WiFi. Water toys, life jackets (limited sizes), and water shoes available for guest use.

**Personal watercraft of any kind may NOT be moored in the water or tied to the dock. All boats and PWC must be trailered in and out as needed or docked overnight at an offsite location (nearby marina, etc...) If you plan to bring your own boat, please be aware of this rule**

Great Time - Beautiful Location

This is a great place to stay! Our family had a wonderful time. It had plenty of room to accommodate our family and during meal times we could all be together. The only thing we missed was the dock still being in the water though I understand it is about to winter! I would definitely stay here again. Both the arrival and departure were extremely easy. Thank you so much for letting us rent your house!! It is a great family place!

Enjoyable Property

This property is well situated for a large gathering. Large kitchen, large dining room table, large couch, and multiple mattress types ensure every member of your party will likely sleep on a mattress that suits them best. The lake is beautiful, the property is quiet, and the location is optimal for exploring northern Michigan. We enjoyed our week long vacation very much.

A true gem in northern Michigan

We had a wonderful stay here. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and made sure everything was well stocked and ready to enjoy. It is comfortable and lovely. The boat is an amazing xtra that we would highly recommend. It is such a fun area with so much to do and the boating options are endless. Our week flew by! Our favorite Vrbo by far.

Great place to start the summer

We really enjoyed this cottage. Everything was as described with a lot of very thoughtful touches. It was a great way to start the summer. It was nice to have the pontoon boat to get out to the sandbars and enjoy the sun. Thank you!

Beautiful, spacious cabin. It had everything we needed for a fun New Year’s Eve celebration. The many bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and private and was perfect for four families with kids. We would love to stay again during the summer so we could enjoy the lake.

Overall excellent accommodations. There were eight adults and one two year old and no one ever felt crowded. Great fully stocked kitchen which is the most spacious we have ever seen. Great place to kick back and relax or take day trips to Mackinac or Petoskey. A definite repeat location!

Beautiful, well equipped and clean home - perfect for families!

This home is just perfect for families. It's spacious, beautifully appointed and has lots of supplies available (extra water shoes, 3 person water raft, paper towels, laundry detergent, etc.). It was exceptionally clean. We rented the pontoon which was so much fun! We all highly recommend!

Perfect Family Vacation

This house is gorgeous. It is set up perfectly for families. Lots of private spaces and lots of open space to gather inside and out. This house has everything you need. We loved having the pontoon boat that the whole family could enjoy. Thanks to Jenna and Matt for sharing the little piece of heaven!

Burt Lake vacay

We had a great time at this spacious lake house. The lay-out worked perfectly for 4 families. We appreciated the large kitchen, ample counter space, and extra-long dining table. Kitchen was well-stocked. We enjoyed the dock, pontoon, kayaks, and fire pit. Neighborhood was nice for walks and quiet overall. Would definitely stay here again!

Burt Lake Beauty

Perfection! Perfect location and home! Well stocked. Great furnishings. Even nicer than the pictures. Made day trips to Petoskey, Charlevoix, Mackinaw and Pictured Rock National Park. Chose to stay home one day just to enjoy the beautiful view of Burt Lake. Dining table so big we were able to play cards with seven people and still had room at the other end to keep a huge puzzle going. Made our trip!

Simply Amazing! Dream home Cabin, Dream Home Setting.

The owners of this cabin really thought this out. The cabin is perfect for large families, and is nested deep inside some Cheboygan Forrest. Burt Lake (4 largest inland lake in Michigan) is beautiful. We were able to stargaze right from the backyard. The cabin is fully equipped (no joke) with everything you need. Kitchen (10/10) Bathrooms (10/10) Backyard (10/10) Rooms (10/10) I rarely give 5 stars, but this cabin deserves it.

About the host

Hosted by Matt and Jenna

Host profile image
We both grew up in Northern Michigan. Jenna was raised in Charlevoix, and Matt spent his summers in Lewiston. We currently live in the Ann Arbor area, but we knew we needed a place Up North to bring us back to our roots. We found the perfect setting on beautiful Burt Lake and we were able to build this house to accommodate all of the family and friends that we wanted to share it with. We love being a part of peoples life long memories!
