Cabin, private, woods, trails, 2000 Acre Duck Lake, kayaking, concerts

Cottage feel with modern amenities. Township Permit # PSTR 23-049. Perfect for a couple or small family. Pet friendly. One bedroom for two guests plus two age 15 or under, full bath, kitchen and dining area, living room, wood stove, patio, 10x12 deck, fire pit. WIFI, TV Streaming Hulu, air, reverse osmosis tap water. 650 square feet. Lake access 3/10 of a mile, joint access with boat mooring available. Due to swimmers itch swimming is safe waste deep but lengthy wading in the shallow is risky. I have been swimming in Duck Lake for 11 years and have never had swimmers itch, as long as you are careful and towel off the risk is very low. There are areas of the lake where you can wade and play fizbee, etc without concern but you need to boat there, thus a boat or kayak is a great way to enjoy this lake. Interlochen State park and Interlochen Arts Academy 1.5 miles north. State park has a nice beach area and the Arts Academy houses many prominent concerts and performances in multiple art forms. Just a short distance away from Traverse City, MI, host of the National Cherry Festival, Traverse City Film Festival. Leelanau and Old Mission Peninsula's with over 20 vineyards. Many lakes, rivers and beaches within 20 minute radius. Lake Michigan and Sleeping Bear Dunes 30 minutes. Many golf resort opportunities: Grand Traverse Resort, Arcadia Bluffs, Crystal Mountain and many other smaller courses.

Fantastic weekend getaway
My husband, our two dogs, and I got away from the hustle and bustle of Chicago to enjoy our time in the woods. The cabin was perfect for our family and was just the right size. Never felt too crowded. We roasted marshmallows and hot dogs on the fire pit and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The cabin was just isolated enough that we let our dogs run around off leash and enjoy. My only complaint is the size of the bed was a bit small and firm. Nancy was great to communicate with and very responsive. Would stay here again.

Our 2 night stay here was wonderful! The property itself is beautiful, tucked away in a small neighborhood in the woods between two lakes. It was larger than expected and super cute inside. The host provides lots of amenities all throughout the house and the decor and colors really help add to the charm. The location is perfect! About 25 mins from Traverse City and close to the Leelanau Peninsula. There are lots of nice resturants nearby, ice cream, pizza, grocery stores, consignment shops, anything you could want. The bed was very cozy and easy to fall asleep on. The host was very kind and welcoming and great with communication. Will absolutely be staying here again!

Great location to enjoy Duck and Green Lake and the local businesses. Cottage was warming and had all the amenities to enjoy our stay while spending the days bass fishing. Had a nice grill for grilling and fire pit to enjoy a nice fire and recap on our day.

Nice little getaway
It was a little less secluded than I had hoped, but it’s a quiet, uncrowded road with most properties spaced well apart. The trails were fun to explore. Just the right size for one or two, with the little wood stove taking off the chill of the evening. The only challenge was that there weren’t enough open outlets, but it worked out.

Perfect getaway
Came to Michigan to visit family but still wanted our own space, this was the perfect little home. Comfy, warm, and perfect for just me and my husband. They had everything we needed to enjoy our 5 days there. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable and cute getaway. Has a fireplace that was very nice. Bed was comfy. 10 out of 10. Property owners were very responsive to any inquiries I had rapid response time. When I visit again I will be staying in the same place. It is right by the lake walking distance. You feel nestled away in the woods. Loved it.

Nice little getaway
I got an idea to spend Thanksgiving weekend in Michigan at a little cabin. I am not a woodsy outdoor person at all but my husband is pretty well versed at building fires and land navigation: we had a lovely wood stove and we thoroughly enjoyed the fire we built. The cabin in in a quiet little neighborhood. Too cold for fire pit this time of year but really a fun time nonetheless. Good location and easy drive to Traverse City and lots of attractions. Property manager very kind and friendly. I have a large well behaved dog. Thank goodness for people who don’t breed judge or size judge. My dog had the best time. Overall a great deal and a wonderful experience.

Quiet Cabin is the Fall Woods
The house was perfect for my husband and I and our dog. Everything was tidy and ready for us when we arrived. There were clear instructions emailed to us and also at the house. The owner made a good effort to keep things easy for us. The bed was comfortable as were the living room furniture. The house is located very close to Interlochen Arts Academy, which made our drive to a concert there incredibly easy (we probably could have walked). Its also reasonably close to Traverse City (30 min.?) We hope to stay at the house again should we travel down to the Interlochen area.

Fun travels ~great cottage stay
I was very happy with Nancy's place. Very clean, 2 large windows with back one tall and angled shaped with view of fall tree colors. Nancy is a very good host/owner. She helped find a lost pkg which had accidentally been thrown away. She found and will be mailing to us. I felt that shows her kindness to her guests. The $ per day we found to be very guest welcoming. Very reasonable compared to the majority. Pet friendly which we so appreciated.
