About this cottage rental

This beautiful family cottage is ideally located on a wooded point surrounded by peaceful Lake George, a small, quiet no-wake lake with great fishing and swimming, just 12 miles SE of Traverse City. The home features an eat-in kitchen with all appliances and amenities, two full bathrooms, a master suite with queen sized pillow-top bed and two smaller bedrooms with a shared door between them. One of the smaller bedrooms has a double bed, the other has a set of twin beds. (Note: you have to walk through the first bedroom to get to the second bedroom.)

The living room features a double hide-a-bed and plenty of comfy chairs. The Cottage sleeps a total of 8.

Lake George is a quiet lake without public access. Motor boats (other than trolling motors) are not allowed, meaning that your vacation will truly be peaceful. Public access sites to both Arbutus and Spider Lakes are just minutes away if you have a motorized boat. The cottage includes a swimming raft, an aluminum canoe, paddles and life preservers of various sizes.

Please note that the Cottage is located in a residential area with permanent residents next door. As such, groups looking for a place for big parties or loud music should look at other properties. This really is a family cottage that we use when we don’t have guests. Its furnished with family antiques, lots of trinkets & photos. We trust our guests to respect our cottage for what it is - the heart, soul & history of our family.

At the Miller Family Cottage you'll leave the hustle, bustle and noise of bigger lakes behind the minute you drive down the driveway. Once there, you'll see that the Cottage is a place to unwind, relax and reconnect. Yet the excitement of larger lakes, Grand Traverse Bay and Traverse City are just minutes away.

NO SMOKING, NO PETS. Minimum 5 night stay. If you book our property for your vacation, you agree to the Rental Agreement and House Rules.

This cottage is the perfect slice of heaven. It came stocked with everything you could ever need. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The views alone will keep us coming back for years to come. This was our second time staying here and we will make it a yearly vacation spot. The owners were great with communication and very friendly. We had an amazing stay and can't wait to come back!

This is the third year we have rented this property. My children absolutely love it! And so do I. It is quiet, secluded, exactly what we love. The raft in the water bring so much joy! Close to downtown Traverse City, if that’s what you’re looking for. We prefer to stay on the lake🤗 the owners are easily accessible for any need. It really is great!

We have stayed here before, what I love most is that it’s like our lake. It’s so private and so peaceful. No jet skis, no motor boats, it’s so quiet. I like the pine trees, I like the seclusion, I love the sound of nature. The beds are comfortable, and they have everything you need. Even though we had rain, we had a wonderful time.

This cottage is a real gem: clean, lovely and was the best equipped that I had ever stayed at. The owners were lovely and very patient answering all of our questions. We loved the little peninsula that jutted out from the cottage onto the lake. There was always shade or sun to find from morning to night depending on what you wanted. The trees made it feel very private. George Lake is quiet and a great place for a family to canoe, swim and fish or just relax and read a book or do a puzzle. It is very close to any activity you may want to engage in NW Michigan from visiting the Sleeping Bear Dunes to wineries to Traverse City, but we just relaxed and enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed visiting lots of amazing sites within driving distance from this cabin: downtown Traverse City, Torch lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island, but also spent a few days just relaxing, swimming, kayaking and fishing at Lake George with the kids. A great place to visit!

Owner quickly answered all questions and was a pleasure to deal with. Most of my family have demanding jobs and we all were able to completely relax at this beautiful place.
