Beautiful Property

We had a fantastic stay on Pickeral Lake. Property was beautiful, cottage was very clean and a well-stocked kitchen. About a 10-15 min drive into Petoskey. Beautiful view of the lake from the cottage. Fire circle had 7 great Adirondack chairs, deck has a large patio table with 6 chairs. Perfect for a girls week-end! Jeremy was a fantastic host!

Great Stay!

We have a large family and this space was able to accommodate everyone with plenty of sleeping areas. A few things do need updating, like the grill and couches. However, the property manager is very responsive & helpful. We loved having the water close enough so our older kids could fish & swim without worry. For the price point & space - it was a great home.

Great stay

We were happy with the home and our stay. It had all of the amenities listed and was fully equipped. Nice location as you could travel from Pickeral lake on pontoon boat to crooked lake and then to Burt lake. Access to the dock and all of the lakes was the highlight of our vacation. The Hot tub was very nice and clean. Overall, nice place to stay!
