About this property

FAMILY FRIENDLY COTTAGE SLEEPS 12 !!! BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED

The Crooked Lake Cottage (CLC) is a newly updated 2800 square foot cottage that has everything anyone could want in a vacation home:
Wake in the morning to a stunning sunrise from your Master Suite- take a morning Kayak to enjoy the calm and peacefulness of the Lake. Everything you could want to do on vacation is at your fingertips. Bring your boat and have it waiting at your private dock (or Rent a boat from the marina 1 half mile away). Cool off with a swim or grab a raft and float in the pristine waters of Crooked Lake. If you feel like exploring you can cruise the Historical Inland Waterways chain of lakes popping off at a sand bar to cool off or stop in for lunch at one of the restaurants along the route. If you are feeling adventurous use the CLC as a launch pad to all things Northern Michigan has to offer. Be on the Beaches of Lake Michigan in less than 10 minutes. Shop, dine and savor all things Petoskey has to offer. Golf at one of the many golf courses in area including Boyne Highlands and Bay Harbor. Mackinaw city and Island are just 25 miles down the road so be sure to put that in the books!
When returning from a long day of fun come back home to your completely updated cottage! Plenty of space to relax- hang out around the fire pit, grill out or make a gourmet meal in your well appointed Kitchen with granite counter tops and all new stainless steel appliances . With spacious bedrooms and large flat screen TV's in each room the CLC truly has something special for everyone!

This is an awesome place to stay. We had 6 adults and 5 kids and there was plenty of room. The garage being turned into a game room was a nice bonus as that wasn’t shown in the pictures! Two of the bedrooms had attached bathrooms and all of them had plenty of space. Good fishing, nice kayaks, the dining room was large enough for everyone to sit together; I doubt you’ll find a better place to stay in the area for the price we got! Anna was very responsive and we had zero issues with our stay. Only 15 min from Petoskey and we made it to Sheplers in 40 min to get to Mackinac. It was very clean when we showed up, rules are simple: be respectful and clean up after yourself. If you have issues with this place or the owner it’s probably a you problem!

This cottage was absolutely the best! It had everything even a crockpot! Every kitchen utensil, even dish soap , laundry soap, foil, spices, 2 refrigerators and double ovens. It has so much space, and a first floor bedroom. Even a room with a ping pong and pool table. Our grandchildren loved the little sandy beach and 2 kayaks for fun! We couldn’t have had a better cottage for our family!

Property was exactly what we were looking for. Kids really enjoyed the pool/ping pong table in the garage and playing on the small beach. Tons of fishing and boating and very close to everything we wanted to enjoy. We would stay here again.
