Newly remodeled, this property is surrounded by woods, making it a perfect respite in a peaceful surrounding, with no visible neighbor on either side. A charming path leads down the hill to our lakefront: an intimate spot on a lovely cove. The accommodations offered are the lower level walkout-basement of our home, with plenty of light, two patio doors and beautiful views. While we, the owners, will be staying above, there is a separate entrance for guests and you are able to have as much privacy as you desire. This getaway is ideally situated only 12 minutes from downtown Traverse City and 12 minutes from the world-famous Interlochen Center for the Arts. One of our favorite day trips is a 30 minute drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes for hiking and bonfire on the beach. Included in the rental is access to our 2 kayaks, canoe, 2 stand up paddle boards, and our 5 seater pontoon paddle boat which is perfect for a cruise around the lake to observe the islands, wildlife or sunsets. We have seen eagles, beavers, porcupine, turkeys and more! The public boat launch is only 1/8 of a mile away for convenient use. We have had incredible luck with bass fishing right off our dock.
