100' Prime Lakefront w/sandy lake bottom - updated cottage w/dock/boats/bikes | Cottage in Bear Lake
2 Bedroom Cottage in Bear Lake
Enjoy one of Michigan's finest all-sports lakes in a secluded setting, with undeveloped lots on all sides (effectively 300' of private lake frontage only about 30' away from our cottage). Our older rustic/retro cottage has a kitchen, bathroom and separate powder room (1.5 bathrooms) that are all updated (see pictures). Included at no extra charge is the use of our 14' aluminum fishing boat w/outboard motor & plenty of gas, canoe, standup paddleboards, kayaks, bicycles, and plenty of firewood for our indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit. (Dock and fishing boat are available around May 1 - November 1, but are removed during the other colder months.) We also have both a gas grill and a charcoal grill for your use.
Note: this is just 1 of about 5-10 "Bear Lake"s in the state of Michigan. Ours is the largest one, located in Manistee County, Bear Lake/Pleasanton Townships, south of Traverse City and north of Manistee, on U.S. 31.
Note: Our cottage has 4 beds total (2 queen beds and 2 twin bunk beds) in 2 separate bedrooms. So it can sleep up to 6 people. We have 2 bathrooms (1 full bath and 1 half bath).
Note: Our cottage comes with dishes, pots & pans, soaps, paper products, towels and linens so you don't have to bring those.
Note: To keep your cost as low as possible, we allow our renters to clean the cottage themselves before checkout, or you can pay our cleaning staff to do it for you. Our staff charges $30/hr. up to a maximum of $90 for 3 hours, depending on how clean you leave the cottage. Any cleaning costs simply will be charged by Vrbo to your booking deposit.
Note: We provide a 10% "returning guest discount" in the future to those who have left our cottage in good condition and want to come back.
Note: At your convenience before checking in, we definitely need to talk with you by phone so we can give you more information about our property and answer any questions you might think of. This allows us to be totally prepared before your arrival. We want you to be 100% satisfied with your choice of vacation accommodations!
Note: We are available by phone 24/7 (similar to a hotel front desk) to answer your questions and ensure all your needs are met. We offer this to make you feel secure in knowing you aren't alone once you've booked our cottage.
