Cozy, Comfortable And Quiet Chalet ~ Includes Kayaks And Air Conditioning!

Relax and enjoy our wonderful vacation home nestled on the canal of Lake Mitchell. The canal offers full boating access to Lake Mitchell, and our 240 feet of canal frontage makes for some of the best land fishing Lake Mitchell has to offer! There are 6 kayaks and 2 stand up paddle boards included with you booking.

** We also have a pontoon boat available for an extra fee for your lake enjoyment during your stay **

The chalet style cottage has 3 bedrooms with queen pillow top mattresses in each for the best night sleep. The master bedroom offers a great patio space to enjoy the breeze and beautiful views of the lake while taking in a good book or just relaxing and watching the sun set. There are two full baths with a custom stand up shower upstairs and a full bathtub on the main floor.

This cottage has air-conditioning units both upstairs and down that really help cool the space during the hot summer days. Enjoy your morning coffer from the large deck that overlooks the canal and the beautiful tree lined property.

Our cottage sits on three large lots with plenty of shade from the large oak trees. There is plenty of room for yard games and a great fire pit to enjoy during your stay. Also has a Large outdoor gas grill for all your cooking needs. The extra space and large driveway is great for parking your vehicles and a boat trailer. The cottage is well equipped with 55” Smart TV in the living room and a 40” Smart TV in the master bedroom. Also included is high-speed wireless internet and a play station 4 gaming system in the living room.

The Kids Cove Hideaway! There is a cozy bonus room above the garage that has an additional queen bed and two twin beds and Air Conditioning! This space also has a large TV with a Play Station 4 gaming system. We call this space the “Kids Cove”, and it makes for a great place for the kids to gather and have their one little retreat.

Also included with our cottage are six kayaks and two stand up paddle boards for your daily water adventures. You are a short paddle from the cottage to the local sandbar where vacationers anchor their boats and play in the crystal clear sandy bottom water on a warm summer day.

You can also access Lake Mitchell from the neighborhood beach that is a short walk from the cottage front door. Another great feature just out the front door is direct access to the Manistee National Forest with miles of trails for hiking and Mt. Biking adventures. These trails are lined with some of the best black berry bushes in Northern Michigan.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions and I hope you enjoy our cottage!

Cute little canal cabin!
Location of this cabin is nice and quiet! It’s a nice neighborhood and area of the lake was convenient. The extra space above the garage was nice for the preteens. Beds were overall comfy and bathrooms were nicely updated! It is a cabin so keep that in mind, as this is not a brand new, sparkling clean place. A nice power wash and deep clean would be nice but it didn’t affect our stay! The boat was a nice addition and we did use it to take a little ride around the lake.

Great northern MI getaway!
Enjoyed the great location and house. Has an amazing lot on the canal with Kayaks and fishing. Nice bedrooms, comfortable beds, recently renovated bathrooms. Enjoyed use of the grill, outdoor seating and fire pit. Took several nice hikes in Manistee Forest and found a couple nice spots to eat. Bob has a great host and easy to communicate with.

Cabin on Lake Mitchell canel.
The inside of the cabin was nice. The outside of the cabin was a little dingy. It needed some cleaning and repair. We rented a pontoon boat from the owner one day during our stay, but the key to it was hidden and the owner could not be reached until the early afternoon and so we lost half of the days use of it. The grounds of the place were good and the parking was adequate.

Nice place but outside needs work
Spiders and Bees, Spiders and Bees, lots of spiders everywhere. Couldn't say how many spiders we killed. Bob was great to work with. Inside was nice and very comfortable. Beds were super comfy. The outside of the house could use a good power washing.

Amazing stay, very spacious and can accommodate A bunch of grown men on a yearly fishing trip, really enjoyed that it was on right on the canal and very comfortable patio furniture and awesome fireplace and the owner could answer any questions really fast through email and the best part was for a extra fee you could rent the pontoon boat he has to offer we will definitely book again next year for our annual fishing trip

Great family weekend!
We had a wonderful family weekend with all of the activities to keep us busy. The whole family enjoyed the boat rides. Our 8 year old twins used the kayaks and stand up boards in the canal and did so well their first time out. Everyone got in on the fishing even though they only caught baby fish! The interaction between the twins and their teenage cousins was priceless! The cottage was perfect for our family of 10, and we will certainly consider a repeat stay in the future.

Would definitely rent again!
We had a great time here! Plenty of things to do. We enjoyed the ping pong table, kayaks and outdoor space. It’s not private but lots of nature and wild life. The furniture was comfortable, house was clean, beds were comfortable enough. There were spiders inside and out but it’s in the woods basically, it’s nature and they didn’t bother us. Total bonus being able to rent the pontoon. We cruised lake Mitchell and lake Cadillac. Definitely recommend and would rent again for sure.

Nice cottage
The house worked for our needs, but I probably would not stay there again. It was hot when we arrived, and though it has an AC window unit in the bathroom upstairs, it was pointless because the bedrooms stayed hot. Luckily there were box fans in the closets and ceiling fans. There were also A LOT of spiders in the house - it seemed as though it hadn’t been occupied in awhile. Overall the amount of space was nice and enjoyed having the backyard and water access.

Good time on the channel. Brought our atv”s & trails were super close to cottage. Fishing was fun right there on the dock. House was a tad smaller than we expected but we made it work. Place could use a few updates but overall we enjoyed our stay

Spacious retreat on the water with so much to do!
What an amazing location and the space was perfect. Bob has this space set up to appease anyone - kayaks, paddle boards and so many games like cornhole and ladder ball. The temps in the summer are perfect too! The pontoon sealed the deal (a must add-on) as the lake is spacious and a lot of memories made. We will be back!

Not bad. Over Priced for what it was.
The house needed a good power wash on the outside. Lots of spider webs. We believed this rental was way overpriced for what it was. We all agreed that if the pontoon boat was included it would have been worth it. But the charge of 600 dollars on top of the already paid rental was too much. Thank you for letting us enjoy your cabin, it was good to be with family
