About this property
Sunrise Shores cottage on the beautiful Lake Mitchell
⚠️ Please note: only a hand towel, kitchen towels and a bath mat are provided. Guests will need to bring their own towels if they plan on getting wet. 💦 Guests must also supply their own pillows and sheets; only comforters are provided. See bed sizes under "Rooms & Beds".
⚠️ Please note that the cottage DOES NOT have air-conditioning.
Enjoy the four seasons at this upscale lakeside cottage! In the summer, enjoy fishing right from the dock; splash, swim, and boat on the beautiful all-sports Lake Mitchell. Enjoy the beautiful sunrises with a cup of coffee in hand from the large wrap-around deck. When you've worn yourself out playing on the lake, relax and enjoy a barbecue or a fire in the fire pit. At night, enjoy the starry northern skies while sitting fireside with friends and family — a truly relaxing experience awaits! The cottage is on the west side of Lake Mitchell on a road with no outlet, so both the lake and the road are quiet. The lake is just feet from your back door and wrap-around deck; the bottom is sugar sand for 60 to 70 feet from shore and is fairly shallow out just as far, making the cottage ideal for summertime splashing and other water activities.
In the autumn, enjoy the gorgeous fall colors as Cadillac puts on its most colorful show! Enjoy cycling in the cool autumn air on the scenic White Pine Trail, or simply relax fireside with family and friends as the summer begins to fade.
In the winter, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing are just steps away from the cottage as you head on out to Lake Mitchell. Bring your ice skates for a quick spin on the frozen lake, or play hockey with friends and family. Visit one of the area's many ski resorts for skiing and snowboarding, or simply relax inside the cottage next to the gas fireplace and enjoy the falling snow and winter scenery.
The cottage is within one hour of many of northern Michigan's major scenic and tourist attractions, making this the perfect place for staging excursions into the abundant wilderness or charming port towns on Lake Michigan. Or simply relax and enjoy life lakeside as the seasons unwind, and the sunrise starts your every day with its splendor!

About the host
Hosted by Michael & Reiko Rubida
We are both longtime teachers that really enjoy the outdoors and Michigan's northern wilderness! We fell in love with the northwestern part of the mitten during the last couple of years, and wanted a place to escape and unwind during our summers off. We are sharing our vacation home so that you can relax and unwind, too, and take in all the natural beauty of our beautiful state and its four seasons.
Why they chose this property
Cadillac is within an hour of most of northern Michigan's natural wonders, and boasts a town just big enough to have some really good restaurants and shops, while also having abundant nature and outdoor activities! Our cottage is cozy and inviting, and will feel like your home away from home when you come to visit.
What makes this property unique
The best of lakeside cottage living with a small town urban center just ten minutes away, as well as Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, Manistee, and all the other attractions that beckon travelers to the north within one hour's drive.
