Make Memories This Summer-Easy Access to All Things Northern Michigan

You won’t find a better location for peacefulness, family-friendly lake access, hiking and cycling, and proximity to Petoskey, Mackinaw and the upper peninsula. The location is so peaceful and quiet yet so close to everything Northern Michigan has to offer. The cottage rental includes spectacular sunsets, TrueStream fiber internet, dedicated fire pit, lawn games, kayaks/SUPs and much more


NATURE GETAWAY

Next to the waters edge at the end of a wooded trail, sits our elegant three bedroom log home called Blake Beach House (one of three cottages available to rent on the property-rent all three for a perfect for extended family vacation). It soaks the breeze off Lake Paradise and rests in peace next to the quiet Stony Point Nature Preserve. This Preserve is a nature lovers paradise with a trail system that helps you hike it all.

A stone's throw lands you in the Carp Lake Township Park-a historic park nestled in the forest. It's tiny, but the swing set by the water is all you need to enjoy the serenity.

Moving closer to the cabin you'll find the dock with lots of water crafts to explore the lake with. Bring a pole, fish off the dock, or take a kayak out for a time you'll never forget.

Now inside the cabin, you'll meet the comfort of white-knotty pine everywhere. Pine adds a rustic and cozy ambience that can't be beat while reading by the stone fireplace. Vintage and homemade decorations add a dash of local charm.

Guests love drinking coffee in the sunroom overlooking the lake. You'll find a kitchen with modern appliances making homemade meals a pleasure. Updated bathrooms with elegant tile and modern fixtures. And comfortable beds with great views.
There's no need to go to the park when you can live on one. Our guests always feel right at home here.

Please note we have two other cottages available on the property. Please see VRBO # 2108953 and 2131656 both sleep up to 4 guests.

-Pack a picnic lunch and spend time on the miles of beach of Wilderness State Park.

-Cycle on miles of dedicated bike paths in region (the 32-mile North Western State Trail running all the way from Mackinaw City to Petoskey is at the main road, just a short bike ride from the property)

-Spend the day shopping and/or have lunch in Harbor Springs and Petoskey.

-A short drive across the famous Mackinaw Bridge allows you to see the beauty of the Upper Peninsula

-Spend an afternoon golfing or play a game of tennis in the village close by.

-Relax at the cottage with a good book while the others fish or swim.

-The area has many country/lakeside dining spots.

-At the end of the day, enjoy breathtaking sunsets from your own sun room. Later, roast marshmallows over the bonfire at the lake's edge.



*The cottage shares the dock and 2 kayaks, 3 SUPs and row boat with 2 smaller cottages. Great location for extended family reunions.
