Classic Cozy Cottage centrally located for your fall color tours!

The cozy little getaway provides the perfect place to stay whether you want a jumping off place or you want to chill and relax. Within an hour drive are points/cities of interest including Traverse City, Charlevoix, Petosky, Mackinaw City, Cheboygan, Gaylord, Grayling and all points north. There is ample room for vehicles and trailers to carry all toys. Just two miles away is the trailhead for the State Forest ORV trail system.

This cottage for any season is ideal for singles, couples, families or friends and is located about 35 minutes south of the Mackinac Bridge, 20 minutes north of Gaylord and just minutes from I-75. This cottage offers the perfect opportunity to discover all northern lower Michigan has to offer.

Nestled on a wooded site 100 yards from Wildwood Lake where we have deeded access for ice fishing, you walk up to the front door traversing a large deck and enter the cottage through the three season room. From there you enter the living room which is open to the kitchen which both offer views of the trees and the nature around. Natural gas heat for the winter and portable AC for the summer keep you comfortable all year long. Sleeping arrangements include a queen bed in the first bedroom, a bunk bed with a double on the bottom and twin on the top in the second bedroom and a pull out full size couch in the den. High speed fiber optic internet and Roku TV are available for you to use by logging into any of your subscriptions. We provide all bed linens as well as bath towels. The kitchen includes a full size refrigerator, dishwasher, full size stove, two coffee makers (a Keurig and a French Press), toaster, microwave, pots, pans and dishware.

Quiet Little Cabin
Definitely more a cabin than a house. Very cozy and homey. If you have a small family and don't mind it being a bit cold, this is a wonderful place to stay. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Close to expressway but out in the country!!!
Very nice stay here. 4 of us went up in a little bow hunting excursion. Slept us all comfortably, good heat, nice shower and very clean. It’s less then a mile to the pigeon river forest which is where we were headed. Very accommodating, we asked to switch our dates and thankfully it wasn’t an issue. Very pleasant hosts. We will be booking again next fall!

Up North Serenity!!
We had a great, relaxing stay!! We had hoped to see more elk than we did but it was all good!! The fall colors were starting to turn and pretty where we spotted them!! Only one downside we struggled with the Roku tv setup, probably because we're not that tech savvy!! Thank you Dave & Vanessa for letting us stay at your cabin!!

Cozy little house
We had a great time at this little rental. We were greeted with goodies and drinks and the house was very well stocked with all our needs. We would absolutely recommend this place. When my daughter and I left my granddaughter said “can we please come back here again”. She is 5.

Relaxing Getaway
We enjoyed the little cabin in the woods. It was comfortable, clean, thoughtful hospitality, and lots of amenities. It was a perfect getaway that was 30- 45 minute drive from Gaylord, Boyne, and Mackinaw.

Summer stay
We ended up having 5 ppl stay. 2 couples and my 15 year old nephew. The house was very clean and well stocked. The host is very responsive and the check in instructions were very clear and easy. The 2 driveways accommodated 2 trucks with large trailers and side by sides. We drove to the trails from the house. The beds were very comfortable, definitely some of the best we’ve slept on in a rental. I would rent again!

Nice and clean.Loved that there were drinks and snacks on our arrival. Nice clean towels and everything you need for your stay! Plenty of space to park a boat or whatever toys u bring. Boat Launch a few hundred yards down the road. The cabin is within 30ish minutes from Mackinac bridge, Petoskey and Indian river. Terrific central location! Would definitely recommend. Thank you to the hosts.😊

Cabin livin’
Loved the cabin. My wife and I and our two grandsons enjoyed our time together in the cabin. We used it while visiting family near by and we are already looking forward to our next stay. Everything we needed was provided by our hosts. The cabin is on a peaceful and quiet lot and offers plenty of things to do like a wood burning fire pit, gas grill and gas fire pit on the front porch. I highly recommend staying if you are looking for that cabin experience.

Very Nice Stay
The cottage was exactly as advertised. It had everything we needed except food. The available snacks were a nice welcome! Lost of clean fluffy towels and beds comfortable. The only drawback was the camera inside the cottage. It just felt strange even though is was not on. Maybe relocating it to the sun porch would be better. Definitely would recommend to others.

Cozy cottage
My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was fully stocked and clean. You only need to bring your clothes. The cottage is cute and comfortable inside and out. We did have a slight issue with the functionality of the shower. It was tight and you had to use the shower head by hand. We also weren’t comfortable with a camera inside the house. While we were told it was off we felt a better place would have been to sun porch. We were totally satisfied with our choice to stay there and would recommend the cottage to others. Thank you for your hospitality.

Great get away place!
We enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage. It was very cozy…had everything we could possible need. From kitchen pots and pans to bedding and enough towels. It was very clean. Only problem was the bathroom……shower was a little small and was a little small to be able to fix our hair and do make up. I would recommend maybe mirrors in the bedroom. But other than that it was awesome! Thank you for a great time at your Cozt Cottage!

Perfect for us
We were visiting a son over a long weekend. He is working at Bay View for the summer. Although we had to drive back and forth about 40 minutes, it was so much more affordable than anything I could find around the Petosky area. Vanessa and Dave always responded quickly to my emails and texts. One bedroom has a queen bed and the other has a very nice bunk bed, the lower bunk being either a double or queen size. Then in the den/TV room, there is a pull out couch which is a very tight fit but gives the option for two more sleeping spots. All bedding was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed sitting on the deck which is large. The owners provided plenty of snacks. We used the kitchen for some food prep, but mostly used the grill on the deck. Several of our adult children were with us so it worked out great for us. There are PLENTY of nice fluffy towels - something I rarely see in VRBO’s. We visited in the area: The Depot Ice Cream Cafe, McCormick Farmz lavender fields during their festival, Serendipity Farms (bought brats, cherries, and other produce). The only little drawback is the very tiny shower, and it is probably more os a drawback for women, probably men don’t care that much.
