*ABOUT SPIDER LAKE*
Spider Lake is a 459 Acre All Sports Lake with big sections for water-skiing and tubing, small coves for fishing, and a couple islands and sandbars. 'Fast boating' is allowed only between 11:00 am - 7: 30 pm, so the morning and evening are quiet. Many of the coves are no-wake zones all day and great for fishing any time. With lots of bays and coves, you can find somewhere new to explore every day!
*RELAXING WINE TOURS*
Traverse City is known for its wineries! If you drive up Old Mission or Leelanau Peninsula, there are several wineries to stop by every few miles. Take your own car (& a designated driver!) and have a leisurely drive, OR book a private or join-in group tour! Many wine tour companies pick-up and drop-off at vacation rentals around the area. Reach out to us before check-in to help plan your trip!
*WINTER SPORTS*
The Winter Sports VASA Singletrack includes more about 10 miles of groomed trails for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, biking or running, and can be accessed just a few miles from the property. The Michigan DNR Designated Snowmobile Trails can also be accessed just a few miles from the home.
Snowshoe at local wineries, enjoy heated dining in private igloos, and come back to enjoy an evening warming up in the sauna!
Please let us know if you have any questions!

The property was as described and the check in and check out procedures were simple and easy. Very cute waterfront property. Enjoyed morning coffee in the deck!
10.0 / 10.0
Beautiful home, would definitely book again. Only wish we could have enjoyed it longer. We were only there for a wedding, but would have been nice to utilize the lake, etc. and stay longer. Only wish check in was earlier than 4pm
6.0 / 10.0
Not sure this is the same property described by others. There were/are a number of housekeeping and maintenance issues which shouldn’t exist in a property at this price point. I have brought these issues to the hosts attention, hopefully he will take some of this to heart. He seemed open to the feedback.
10.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed our 4 night stay at this location. The view of the lake from all of the facing windows was amazing. The neighborhood was quiet and the people we passed that were walking or in their yards were all friendly and waved. Its not far from Traverse City and we were easily able to make multiple trips there and even enjoyed a drive up to Petosky. Thanks for the great stay and we were happy we booked this place!
10.0 / 10.0
We have stayed near Traverse City for over 20 years on various lakes and in a variety of cabins. The layout and amenities in this cottage were great. Had a little hiccup with the door code but the owner was very responsive and had a back up key available to minimize the problem. Overall, another great time in TC!

The place was super nice and clean. The dock was awesome. It was the perfect place to get away to and just relax
10.0 / 10.0
We rented the cabin to see our adult children on a family getaway. Our grandfather has a place on the lake and this was a perfect location to meet up with all our children and one grandchild. Most stayed with Gramp's and some in the rental. It was a perfect setting. Check in was seamless. The cabin was clean. We had a great time.
