Nice sandy beach area. Wonderful amenities (kayaks, grill, cable TV, Wifi, stocked kitchen), central location to area. Bathrooms kind of small, uneven floor could be trip hazard for elderly or small children.

The Red Cottage

We had a wonderful time at the Red Cottage. Birch Lake is beautiful and relaxing. All was provided for a fun time at the beach and it's location is perfect (Traverse City, Petoskey, Mackinaw). The hosts were awesome and very quick to respond to a couple questions we had upon our arrival. We look forward to our return!

Great property and very comfortable! We really enjoyed our stay.

Property was very comfortable and we had a nice family vacation! The only issue was the water smell and taste of iron so hoping that’s fixed before next year! Birch Lake is so peaceful and not full of mosquitoes like across the way at Elk Lake which was another plus! We enjoyed the week so much! Thank you!

Another wonderful vacation at the Red Cottage. We were there for 3 weeks - late August and early September. The weather was unusually cold and wet but we made the most of the usable lake time. The cabin location allowed for impromptu trips to local small towns and new discoveries. We had warm and cozy game nights when campfires were not possible. There was plenty of room for everyone whether playing, watching movies or eating. I can’t wait until next year!

Great rental

We really enjoyed our stay here and found the cabin to have everything we needed, including several kayaks, beach chairs, and a nice dock. The lake is sandy and shallow and, at least at the time we visited, quiet. Excellent location, with Elk Lake, Torch Lake, the East Bay, and several nature preserves (including my favorite, Maple Bay) within a 10-minute drive. Great communication from the host as well.Note that some of the less-stellar reviews on this property are from before they did renovations. When we stayed, everything was updated, in good repair, and very clean!

The BEST cottage with the BEST hosts on the BEST lake!

From the moment you arrive you can see how much this cottage means to the family that owns it. Every detail has been considered and you are welcomed like a member of the family. Bring your clothes and food and just be ready to completely relax on this beautiful, peaceful lake. Our group ranged in age from 2 to 68 and all had a fantastic time. The Red Cottage is also a perfect base for exploring wineries, breweries, bike and hiking trails, sand dunes, small towns, museums, galleries and so much more. But at the end of the day it is a special place to gather around a fire and enjoy beautiful Birch Lake.

Beautiful shallow beach

The beach is beautiful and shallow the length of the dock. The beds are comfortable. The cabin needs some tlc. The floors are uneven, they had plywood and mats on kitchen floor during our stay. The kitchen chairs, couch, and arm chairs need help. The neighbor next store came midweek, and frequently let his large dog roam wherever, and it came over and was going to fight my dog. The kayaks are a plus. The cable tv/internet was also a plus

Thanks for your feedback, Kathleen. As posted at the cabin, the floors are getting a complete renovation at the end of the season and will be fresh and ready for many summers after that. Other furniture needs are being tended to, as well. I'm sorry to hear that your doggo didn't get along with the neighbor's dog. Being a pet friendly place means that others' pets could likely be here, too.

Another Wonderful Family Getaway!

We had another fantastic family vacation at this lovely lake house! I brought the grandparents along with my kids (ages 3 to 9), and everyone had a great time. The week started off with some hot weather, but the house was well-equipped with fans, and of course, the lake was the perfect way to cool off.The kitchen was fully stocked, which made it easy to prepare all our meals right at home. We made a fun trip to the ice cream shop in Elk Rapids—just a heads-up, it’s cash only! We also spent a day exploring Charlevoix, where the kids were fascinated by the marina, the drawbridge, and we enjoyed the dine in Pizza Hut.Back at the house, we made full use of the hammocks, sand toys, paddleboards, and the dock—especially since we brought our boat along. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Perfect Up North MI Vacation

As life-long Michiganders, we felt it was time to give our kiddos the essential Up North experience. We’ve stayed in VRBOS throughout the states, and have had pretty decent experiences throughout. This cabin and its hosts were great! The lake is perfect for kids to swim and enjoy water sports-it’s warm, shallow, and the kayaks/paddleboard/sand toys provided offered plenty of family fun. We were able to drop and anchor our Waverunners and play, having the lake mostly to ourselves. The cabin’s proximity to so many wonderful MI adventures kept us busy-Traverse, Torch Lake, and Mackinac to name a few. We were pleasantly surprised by the spaciousness of the home. There was plenty of room for everyone. When we had a minor setback with the electronic lockbox not working upon our arrival, the host answered our call immediately and found a solution in no time. We highly recommend this rental and would love to stay here again!

Horrible conditon

The condition of this property is not suited for rental due to the hazardous conditions and uncleanliness. This is a liability hazard. The floor are sagging and there is plywood and rugs on the floors. we kept tripping over and almost fell. This WAS NOT disclosed ,in fact the photos of the listing are not accurate, As they do not show the condition of the floors and the dirt on everything in the cottage from dog hair to mold growing in showers and a hazard on the bed with the frame bent over. Window were filthy along with the patio chairs and washing machine The fans had so much dirt on them it blew out when you turned them on. There was no screen on the bedroom window. The microwave has on three legs and when you put food it it it spill. I can go on and on. Please clean this property and fix it. Had I know these conditions existed I would not have rented. These conditions were not revealed on this site or in photos.

Lynn, I'm so sorry to hear that you were unsatisfied with the your stay. I wish that I had heard from you at check in and I would have sent our cleaning team to address the problems. Unfortunately, I wasn't made aware of any of this, nor had I received negative feedback from our previous guests before you, as this certainly isn't the way that we hope to represent our favorite family cottage. I believe that the "mold issue" that you are referring to is actually iron build up (it can stain the tub red) from the Northern Michigan water table, and our whole home water filtration system was having trouble keeping up earlier this year. The floor issue was disclosed at the property, as something that had come up during this season. You'll be happy to know we've gone through extensive renovations to tear up the floor and replace, at the end of the season and everything is back in line with what we have always enjoyed at the Red Cottage. As with all old homes, they have a lot of charm, but sometimes issues arise that we can't address immediately!

This cottage is exactly as described and has everything you need for a northern Michigan trip. The sandy beach and shallow sandy water would be great for a family with smaller children. The cottage was clean and had a good amount of space. The property manager even stopped shortly after we checked in to make sure everything was good and to let us know his number was in the cottage if we should need anything while we were there. We had a great trip.

Perfect Family Vacation

This was our second year renting the Red Cottage. We love it! The cottage itself is comfortable for a family of of 5. Plenty of kitchen essentials to cook at home and enough room to play card games inside. Super location near plenty of things to do. Even though we spent the majority of our days in the water. With a young child, the shallow water and sandy bottom are perfect. Plan on returning next summer. Thank you!

Perfect Family Cottage

This is the perfect cottage for families to enjoy. The beach area is a great way to relax and spend your days-both for the adults and the kids. The location is central to our day trips to Charleroix, Traverse City, and Old Mission Peninsula. Having multiple fans available in the cottage was much appreciated for the humid days/nights. Plenty of room for our family of 4 adults and 2 children. We look forward to staying here again.

À propos de l’hôte

Hôte : Laurie Maddex

Image de profil de l’hôte
We are from the East Lansing area. This has been our family cottage for 60 years. As the 5 sons travel farther away, we want to let others enjoy the wonderful experiences we had growing up at this lake.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

The warm lake and family access first drew our parents here. Over the years the lake has proven to be a wonderful place for creating family memories. The lake and area are beautiful, and invites you back year after year.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

It was the safe, friendly, family atmosphere that drew us to Birch Lake. The clean, warm water and shallow sandy bottom makes the lake ideal for families and children. Evening campfires, beautiful sunsets, playing splash football and throwing a Frisbee in the shallows, learning to fish and water ski. These are just some of the memories you'll take home, as we did.
