Forest Edge Burrow - Wooded Yard, Hot Tub, with Long Lake Access

3 Bedroom / 2 Full Bathrooms, full house rental with access to shared Long Lake frontage.

This 2,500+ sqft home is your cozy cabin in the woods, but right near town! Located on peaceful Long Lake Peninsula, this neighborhood setting affords privacy with a cozy deck and hot tub -- all just a short walk to the shared Long Lake frontage where you can launch your boat or use the dock to hop in for a swim!

We are here to make your stay feel like home - feel free to contact us with any questions, and we hope you enjoy your time in beautiful Northern Michigan!

Long Lake is one of the area's largest all-sports, inland lakes and is located just a few miles south of Traverse City. At nearly 3,000 acres, this spring-fed lake has a service area of 4.5 square miles. It is one of the most popular spots for boating, fishing, and swimming with it's clear water and islands to explore.

Four of the islands (Fox, Long, Picnic, and South Island) are parks open to the public with reasonable use restrictions.

This home is only 7 minutes from the famous Moomers Handmade Ice Cream, where you can tour the farm and try their delicious flavors of ice cream with the family! A short 10 minute drive north-east will find you in downtown Traverse City, with many options for dining, shopping, and downtown beaches.

Local Wineries and Breweries are open year-round if you are looking to grab a beer, a bottle of wine, or try a flight!

A centrally located park has room to run and play, a pavilion, and playground equipment.

Guests have access to the whole home during their stay. Please note the garage is not available for guests use.

All vehicles, boats and trailers must be parked in paved part of the driveway. Street parking is not permitted.

This cozy home can be found on the private Long Lake Peninsula, just a short walk to the boat launch and shared waterfront access. Enjoy outdoor dining on the deck, or hop in the hot tub to relax.

Bring your boat with you, or rent from one of the many boat rental companies in the area! We can offer recommendations - feel free to reach out! Please note there is no docking at the shared boat launch/dock. 1 boat is permitted and must be trailered in/out each day.

This is a comfortable home with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. On the main floor are 3 bedrooms: a master with en-suite bathroom featuring a king bed; a comfy bedroom with a queen bed; and cozy bedroom with a two twin beds. Also on the main floor is a living room and kitchen.

Downstairs, you'll find a bonus TV room couches and laundry area.

We are here to make your stay feel like home - feel free to contact us with any questions, and we hope you enjoy your time in beautiful Northern Michigan!

The lake access is just down the street at the intersection of Cedar & Outer Drive, about a 5 min walk from the house (turn right out of the driveway).

There is no street parking and no parking allowed at the boat launch. There is also no docking overnight since it is a shared dock among the neighborhood. Boat rental companies will drop off at the Long Lake Peninsula launch and then pick-up at the end of the day. If you do a multi-day rental, just ensure they drop-off/pick-up each day as there is no overnight docking.

Could not have asked for a better experience! The hosts really made it feel like home away from home. Being greeted with fresh flowers and snacks and a warm welcome was a great treat, and spending the evening in the hot tub after a full day of exploring Traverse City was heavenly. Beautiful house in a peaceful neighborhood, and the host were available if we needed anything at all. Can't say enough good things, you will enjoy your stay!

Richard and Jeannie were very acccomodating hosts. It was the most well supplied VRBO I've stayed in. They had a wonderful coffee and tea selection, and a gift basket with local wine and goodies too. Our family enjoyed the use of his kayaks and the hot tub, and he was very helpful letting us use his backyard to launch them and swim. The house was also extremely clean. Thanks for a great stay!!

Richard and his wife could NOT have been any better at hosting us even if they stayed with us. There were sooooo many special things: wine, snacks, emergency food, jacuzzi, coffee, tea, spices..just too much to even list! The house was so clean and quiet and peaceful, yet close to amazing night life and activities. It was PERFECT!

Excellent vacation during Cherry Festival

Absolutely beautiful location, close to town but out of the busyness. Home was wonderful with many “extras” like garage space, privacy, Sleep Number beds, stainless steel appliances, like new washer & dryer, bikes, two floors, many spaces for gathering. The host is very welcoming and friendly. Long Lake is warm, clean & clear. The Peninsula is a great space for bike riding, walking, running, with a very nice park for soccer, playground, and other activities. Would highly recommend and we will stay here any time we want to travel in the area.
