About this property

Family friendly home with lots of charm and awesome covered porch

Beautiful 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home along scenic South Shore Drive. This family cottage was built in 2001 with upgrades made in 2013, comfortably sleeps 7 with room for an extra kid or two in the bonus bunk room. The covered porch offers a birds eye view of the activity in this beautiful area.

This property is located in a quiet neighborhood setting and is appropriate for likeminded renters. The house has a shared beach access across South Shore Drive with dock. A public boat launch is two doors down, so if you are trailering a boat let us know.

We are looking to share our summer cottage as our family’s schedule is limiting our time in Northern Michigan.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy and Scott Bradley

Host profile image
I grew up in Frankfort, but have lived 40 miles outside of New York City for the past 25 years. I have never missed a summer in Northern Michigan, and my wife and I now bring our kids to enjoy the laid back life this area offers.

Why they chose this property

This house has great views of Crystal Lake, plenty of space, and located at the desirable East end of South Shore Drive. The small beach area and dock make it perfect for kids, big and small.

What makes this property unique

The house is fully stocked for a family vacation. Huge deck in the back and covered porch in front make for great areas to relax. Feel free to use our bikes and canoe to enjoy your stay in our home!

The adjacent property sits on the hill behind our house and is connected by stairs hidden among the trees.
