About this property

Lake living at its finest in this comfy cottage

Escape to this beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront home that combines comfort, style, and natural beauty. Nestled right on the water, this open-concept home features a spacious eat-in kitchen perfect for gathering, cooking, and enjoying lake views while you dine. Wake up to spectacular sunrises that fill the home with natural light and enjoy your morning coffee on the large screened-in porch overlooking the serene lake. Whether you’re relaxing indoors or spending time on the porch, the tranquil setting makes this the perfect getaway. Ideal for families, couples, or small groups this home offers everything you'll need for a peaceful and memorable stay. Bring a pole and enjoy the great fishing this lake provides or use the 3 kayaks for a day you'll never forget. Relax on this quiet lake in a hammock by yourself or at the campfire with family and friends. And you won't want to miss dining at The Douglas Lake Bar and Steakhouse, known to the locals as “The DLB", offering great food and live music on the lakeside patio in July and August.

This lake house is the perfect location for day trips to Mackinaw City, Mackinac Island, the U.P., Cross Village (tunnel of trees), Cheboygan, Petoskey, Harbor Springs or Charlevoix. It’s only a 15 minute drive to both Boyne Highlands and Nubs Knob ski resorts. You'll want to take advantage of the nearby snowmobile and hiking trails and golf courses. There are endless activities to do in northern Michigan no matter the season! **lake level varies by season**

My parents and I loved our stay at this cabin! It was so incredibly peaceful and secluded on the lake within the forest, yet with easy access to stores.

Very cute and cozy cottage stay! We had a nice relaxing stay here. We loved the open kitchen and living room area for cooking/serving food. Due to the time of year (mid-June) and being on the water, the May flies were outside pretty bad but that is to be expected anywhere you go north. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Family Getaway

The house was a nice place in a quiet area. It was nice to have space where we could enjoy a meal together and relax after being out and busy all day. Really enjoyed lake access and the use of kayaks and the fire pit. (Bring bug spray as the mosquitoes were active when we visited.)

Great Property

Very spacious, well-appointed, clean cottage on Douglas Lake. Everything was as described and fit our family's needs. Kitchen is large with lots of cabinet space. Plenty of room for our group to spread out. Loved the screened-in porch and the covered outdoor patio. Would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Stay

This was an amazing property and home. Sunset views were absolutely unreal. We came to visit Mackinac Island, but half of our group decided to just hang out at the cottage - that's how much we loved it. Very well stocked inside and we really enjoyed having the kayaks. Great communication with the host as well.
