About this property
Lakefront Cottage on Gorgeous Lake Avalon
Welcome to Lake Avalon! This crystal clear lake is Michigan's best kept secret! Featured in the National Geographic as one of the cleanest lakes in the world!!! Fishing, boating, swimming or just kick back and relax. This seasonal rustic cottage has been freshly painted, has crisp a/c, has new stainless steel appliances in the kitchen and has some of the best views on the lake. It has a brand new dock with a huge seating area at the end (2025). Its nestled among the trees, but is only 40 steps from the water. Its beauty is unrivaled between the crystal clear waters, unbridled nature and picturesque surrises and sunsets.
The house is directly on the water with 95 feet of private lakefront footage, with a view like no other! The house, lovingly named the Treehouse, is nestled hillside in the trees with a perfect view of the lake from nearly every room in the house. Perfect for privacy and tranquility. The deck expands the length of the home and has ample seating for everyone. Sleeps up to 10, fully stocked with linens, pots, pans, Keurig coffee maker, Weber gas grill, cable TV, kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, washer/dryer, fire pit with firewood provided and optional add-on pontoon.
•Dock, 4 kayaks, a canoe, a paddleboat, a pontoon raft for the kids to jump off of all provided free with rental. •Available for rent...pontoon for $2,000 weekly. No partial rentals...sorry.
•Saturday to Saturday weekly rentals only. Check-in 4pm, check-out 10am.
****If this property is already taken for the dates you’d like or you need more space…check out our other listing which is directly across the lake. Property #3006062 (the yellow beach house). This property sleeps 15, has a/c, 2.5 baths and is $750/night.
Hillman is home to the ThunderBay Golf Resort. They offer fall color tours and elk viewing tours during the Fall months and elk drawn sleigh rides in the winter. The Treehouse is approximately 25 miles to Alpena (Lake Huron) and roughly one hour from the Mackimaw Bridge. Perfect for a day trip!
Sorry...no pets/animals allowed and NO SMOKING/VAPING!
