We had been looking for a cottage up north for some time without much luck. Lynn's family has a cottage on a northern Wisconsin Lake and my Grandparents had a place on Torch Lake that was later sold when they passed away. I like to say we are lake people at heart, but in the quaint old school cottage sense, not the second mansion on the lake types.
So when we found The Yellow Cottage for sale we instantly fell in love with it as did our kids and my parents, who all were there for the first walk through. The double bonus was that Green Cottage to the north was for sale and my brother and his family were also looking for a place on a northern Michigan Lake.
Fast forward and we are all now coming into our 3rd summer at The Yellow Cottage. We continue to enjoy the cottage as much as possible, while also sharing it with guests who have been awesome.
We are not sure when it will really feel real, but we remain in awe of the beauty and feel fortunate to be able to enjoy and share our small slice of Mullett Lake and northern Michigan. Our family loves the area, the easy access to the trail, the clear Mullett Lake water and of course the old school Yellow Cottage. We hope you find it just as welcoming, relaxing and enjoyable as we have.
