BRINGING A BOAT? Please let us know for valuable information! We can accommodate a boat up to 18 feet. We are on a two track along side the lake and on a dead end so it makes it difficult to trailer both your vehicle and boat attached on trailer down the road so any boat especially bigger than 18' should put the boat in the water first as you have to pass up the boat launch enroute to the cottage and both drivers of boat and vehicle w/trailer can meet at Sunrise which is only less than 2 blocks distance from launch so its really close otherwise you will have issues. Please be so kind and let host know you are bringing a boat so we can give you details to make your arrival seamless. There is one whole side of the dock for guest usage, no lift.

WINTER/SNOWMOBILE/CROSS COUNTRY SKI/SKI HILLS: Snowmobile DNR trails right behind cottage, Trail # 7 and Ski Hills nearby for the Winter Enthusiasts! All kinds of Cross-Country Ski Trails nearby. In this area, you will find the gently sloping terrain, heavily wooded forests and deep annual snowfall ideal for Nordic skiing. It is also not uncommon to see plentiful wildlife out on the trail. Limited parking, please ask!
Although our property is professionally plowed, we do STRONGLY recommend that you have a 4 wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle to access this property in winter months.

GOLF: Lots of golf courses nearby which include world-class resorts and championship golf designed by some of America's top golf course designers, the Gaylord area is your dream golf destination.

HIKING: Experience all that is Northern Michigan along one of the many trails nearby used for hiking, jogging, walking, & biking.

Fun at Sunrise

We were very pleased with our stay at Sunrise Sunsation...it was clean as a whistle and living right on the water was really special. They had lots of fun toys to play with and it is a great area, with some great restaurants.

The house is small, but clean and has everything a small family needs to be comfortable.

The house is charming. It's clean and has just about everything a small family needs to be comfortable for a week's vacation. The views are lovely and the water is refreshing. We were delighted with Sunrise Sensation; our only wish would be to stay longer!

Perfect Paradise

I am not sure i could find a more perfect paradise. The views are spectacular! We spent a lot of time on the deck watching the loons, ducks, geese, chipmonks, boats, etc. It is impossible to sit out there and not relax. Absolute heaven. The cottage is exactly as described. Check in was very easy, cottage was immaculate when we got there. The kayaks were so much fun. Loved the hot tub! You cant go wrong with this one! We will be back!

Perfect Get Away

Cabin is wonderful, with all the amenities from home. You couldn’t ask for a better view, or more centralized location to all your favorite Northern sights and towns. Great trail system to walk every morning, and a perfect little hot tub to make turning in about as comfortable as it gets! This was our second visit, and we will return in the future.

Great Place

We love this place. Great location on the lake. It is very peaceful. You are steps away from water. The house is clean, organized and comfortable. Communication with the Owner, Dorene is excellent. We swam & kayaked every day. We went to Mackinac Island one day and we were back to the house by early afternoon and in the lake. The hot tub on the deck overlooking the lake is a bonus. We will be back next summer.

Peaceful; Beautiful and Amazing

We loved our week on Mullett Lake. The house was perfect for us. Great location; beautiful water for swimming; kayaking; fishing. We did all 3 every day. Enjoyed the sunrise and the millions of stars in the night sky. The owner is excellent with communication and has the house stocked with everything you might need. We are looking forward to returning.

Houseboat feel

This is a very nice 2 BR house with deck overlooking lake. The deck is literally 5’ from the water. Hot tub is right on deck/lake. You can listen to the water right from your living room and bedroom. Beautiful lake and area. Short drive to Mackinaw, Petoskey, Indian River. House has all you need. Located at end of private drive. Owners are great and easy to work with. You won’t be disappointed.

The view and location OMG!!!

The view is spectacular. You are right on the water. We kayaked everyday and enjoyed the hot tub to warm up at night. Topinabee is between Indian River and Cheboygan. So there are some fun cities to explore nearby. Topinabee is very small but there is a yummy breakfest place that allows dogs on the patio and Topinabee Market has good pizza (it is even close enough to kayak to). We went into Indian River to get our main groceries. Dorene the host is very nice and responsive to any questions. We have rented a handful of properties in the northern LP and this is by far our favorite. The house is small but was big enough for my husband, dog and I. We really were there to enjoy everything outside and we had terrific weather for it.

Amazing Quiet Lake Front Cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Everything was clean, comfortable and welcoming. We chose this cabin because of the photos online (it’s even better in person), and because it was dog friendly. Host was very helpful with our questions. Everything was perfect! Wouldn’t change a thing, other than staying longer!
