Plenty of ORV trails around for dirt bike, ATV, side-by-side, and snowmobile riding. Lake Ogemaw is regularly stocked with bass and walleye making it some of the best fishing around.

The cottage is across the street from the Rifle River High Banks Canoe Launch for your own personal canoe/tubing trips as well as fly fishing. If you're looking for professional canoe/tubing livery -- Troll Landing, Whites, and River View are close by. You can find whatever you're looking for near beautiful Lake Ogemaw!

Wonderful place to stay. Cooking in the basement kitchen was a breeze. Would highly recommend to others looking for a place to stay. Make sure you can climb stairs though there are about 25 to the water.

I grew up on this lake as a kid. We were so excited to return. Pete was an amazing host. He went above and beyond to make sure our family had everything we needed. The beach area is amazing for the kids. We will definitely be back next summer!!!

Great Vacation!

We had an excellent stay here. There were 4 adults and one toddler . Plenty of room. House is well equipped. We rented a pontoon boat for the week from Lake Ogemaw Marina which is less than a block away so it was very easy and convenient. The house had both paddle boards and kayaks to use. The beach area is huge and very nice. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Pictures don't do this place justice

Been vacationing upnorth for about 30 years now, and by far this is the best house we stayed in. Super clean, spacious, new furniture, clean sandy beach, breathtaking views, beautiful sunsets and sunrises, gorgeous lake and friendly neighbors. This will be our go to every year. Ps the fishing off shore was great. Caught a ton of fish (blue gills, large mouth bass, pike, and yellow perch).

Warm and Welcoming

We had beautiful weather! I am sure Pete made that happen. The beach was nice and everyone we came upon was very friendly. People who do rent should be aware the beach and beach toys are shared with the neighbor, who is the owner, but they are very nice and I imagine during the week that wouldn't be an issue. Kayaks and paddle boards are in great condition and we were able to rent a boat from the friendly marina down the road and were able to dock it right at the house! House is clean and roomy. Bedrooms on the smaller side, but why would you ever be in them. So much space on the porches and outside to hang out as well as in the basement which is nice and cool. Oh, and bikes too! We took a bike ride around the entire lake. A nice little journey.
