Exceptionally clean, perfect location!

We were new to the area and wanted something close to the ATV trails. This cabin was perfectly located to go any direction on the trails and have a great place to drink morning coffee and have a nighttime fire! Probably one of the cleanest and most tidy rentals we've ever stayed in. We will definitely rent here again!

Charming Getaway Cottage

This cottage made for a wonderful weekend stay. My brother and I took the rowboat out for a troll around the lake. We also grilled out and made a nice campfire. It was a short drive from Traverse City which was also a plus. Hoping to return to Blue Lake one day soon!

Great stay

We used this as a base for the atv trail system. Great location with plenty of parking for trailer. The cottage was comfortable and unique. Truly a nostalgic place. The boys loved the loft/bunk beds. The cottage was clean and well cared for.
