This cottage is a great property and very accessible from the main town. Respite abounds here complete with amazing sunrise skies and tranquil starry nights. The local property manager was excellent. A return reservation is planned.

House has very clean and thoughtfully stocked. Excellent location with a quick walk to Shorts Brewery. Beautiful beach “Old Sun Bather Beach” was a short walk, but across a four lane highway, too fast for small children walking on a curve. Lake view is very nice, quiet amd secluded. Kayaks were fun for kids. Downtown is quant and good food choices. Wish the home had air conditioning. Family had fun!

Our family enjoyed everything about this house and the location. Walking distance to the beach on Grand Traverse Bay, Walking distance to downtown Elk Rapids. Several restaurants within walking distance. House was very secluded in the woods next to a beautiful lake. We used the kayaks provided every day. The boys used the hot tub. Beds were extremely comfortable. The house does not have AC, but we ran the fans provided and slept very comfortably. Kitchen was really nice and updated. This place has everything you need for a great vacation stay. We will definitely be back.
