About this property

This cozy early 1900's 1 bedroom cottage with stunning sunsets is sure to create lasting memories on your vacation. Directly located on Zukey lake with your own personal deck, dock, 2 kayaks & a paddleboat to use. Shallow water for swimming/wading in warm months and great ice fishing in the winter. It is perfect for a couple, small family, or traveling nurses. It does have a sleeper sofa, air mattress, and a couch for other sleeping needs. Zukey Lake Tavern is less than a 1/2 mile walking distance. Lakeland Trail is also right around the corner which is great for biking & running! We have tried to keep the design authentic with some updates as well. New 2nd bathroom added and some remodeling of kitchen done in April 2022.

Do know that our dock is "seasonal" and is usually in from May until Oct. Sometimes, we can put the dock in the water in April. It depends on our lovely Michigan weather. Please inquire before booking if you need to know. The dock is in place for your relaxation pleasure. At this time, we do not allow boats to be parked at this dock. No rentals are available on this lake either.

This is an owner operated vrbo and not managed by a property rental company. We like to ensure you have a great vacation experience.

FYI... For those not familiar with lake living, homes are within close proximity of each other. We are hoping for guests who are looking for a peaceful retreat and enjoy some quiet couple/family time. No parties, foul language, or large gatherings as we want to be respectful of our neighbors on the lake. This lot is 28ft wide. Our own home personal lake lot is directly next door, so you may see us, if the weather is nice, out at our dock/beach frequently, but we will not invade your privacy or space.

Best ladies get away!

We had such a blast at Nautical Nic’s! They really know how to create a cozy cottage environment while also offering so many perks (like snacks and coffee!). We loved the docked floating pontoon and gas fireplace table—so magical! We cannot wait for to plan our next weekend away.

Lovely sunroom with 3 sides of windows on lake!

Zukey Lake is fun to watch from this cottage as the sun is behind you in the morning, then overhead midday, and later you get the sunset straight across the water. The kayaks were fun, the sunroom had cool views of the water that we especially enjoyed after dark when the lights on the docks all glowed. We loved our stay!

Amenities Galore!!

Me and my daughter had a very relaxing 2 night stay at Nautical Nics Cozy Lakefront Cottage. The amenities were plentiful, the hosts were very thoughtful in what they provided for guests. The cottage is true to the pictures, so cozy and cute. We enjoyed the sun, water and kayaking the 1st day and even though rainy weather on the 2nd day we relaxed inside and enjoyed the lake view! Wonderful weekend stay!

About the host

Hosted by Jodi Graham

My husband and I are both professionals. I am an RN at a local hospital and Nick is a carpenter working at EMU. We love living on the lake providing entertainment and activities with many friends around when we want, but the lake also provides us the relaxing atmosphere and moments of peace and quiet when needed. The sunsets are absolutely beautiful! We both love to cycle on the lakeland trail stopping occasionally at the local Zukey Lake Tavern or Hamburg Pub directly off the trail. Jodi likes to run as well with her highlight being running the Boston Marathon in October of 2021! The lakeland trail provides 24 miles of paved trail end to end...longer with crushed gravel. So much to enjoy in all seasons. .check us out.

Why they chose this property

Nautical Nic's is directly next to our lake lot. Our house with 3 acres of land is directly across the street. We have a dock/lake lot directly next to Nautical Nic's. This was a perfect opportunity for us when this cozy cottage became available, as we have already been vrbo hosts for other properties and really enjoy hosting.

What makes this property unique

The Views from this cozy cottage are amazing. Sunsets are stunning. You can even see these from your bedroom. Kayak(no fees) or paddleboat on this beautiful lake which is also attached to 8 other lakes. This cottage is on Zukey Lake with Strawberry Lake being the next lake over and portage Lake being the last lake (2 hrs by boat) on this chain. Sit at the end of the dock & relax or get active and Kayak the Chain. Check out Captain Scotty's boat tours or NautTikiMI.com for added sightseeing and fun on this chain.
