About this property

This home is a beautiful retreat on Lake Missaukee, which is a sandy, all-sports lake, perfect for kids of all ages. Lake Missaukee is the most desirable vacation destination for families because of its shallow, clear, and sandy bottom. The variety of water sports is unlimited. Enjoy sailing, water skiing, fishing, or relaxing on the hammock overlooking the lake. Our family has been staying here for four generations and we want to share some of that joy and memories with you! You won't need to get into your car all week. A quick 3 block walk into town will bring you to restaurants, ice cream shops, City Park Amphitheater with music in the park on Thursdays, and the new city fishing and boat dock. Lake City's renowned county park is only a short stroll down the beach with beach volleyball, playground equipment, boardwalk, and county historical museum and campgrounds. This neighborhood is the most sought-after on Lake Missaukee because of its great location to town, parks, and local attractions and festivals. The Greatest Fourth in the North, car show in August, and the Festival of Pines in September. This is a perfect spot for multi-generational families with a first-floor master, a large master bath, and a view of the lake. Upstairs there is an additional family room and TV for movies nights when you can't agree on one movie for the whole family. Send the little ones upstairs and enjoy a card game around the large dining table with your older crew. This house is perfect for every age from grandparents to brand new babies.

Relaxing getaway

The house was awesome and had everything we needed. The biggest downfall is not having a bathroom upstairs. Thanks for the use of your wonderful home!

Lake City, MI cottage gets a high five!

So much more than a cottage. This home is well maintained, CLEAN, comfortable and has everything you need for a relaxing lake vacation. Kitchen is efficient and extra refrigeration is available in the garage. Beach is right out the door, convenient outdoor shower, beach towels, floats, sand toys, and other outdoor games provided. Wonderful family friendly rental. Wanted to stay all summer. Owners are very hospitable and kind.

Great family vacation

This was our first visit to Lake City. Everything about the house, amenities and location exceeded our expectations. The house was very nice and spacious with everything that we needed. The yard was beautiful and with the addition of swings, a fire pit and outdoor games we all enjoyed a lot of time there and at the beach. The sandy beach and clear water was perfect for our grandkids. Plus, there were a lot of sand toys, umbrellas and a paddleboard to entertain everyone, It was also really nice to be able to walk a couple blocks into town. Wayne and Marilyn were very gracious hosts and we would love to return to their beautiful home.

Very Helpful Owner

VERY clean home and lovely people. Wayne gave us a great fishing spot and our children had hours of fun playing in the sandy beach. The warm outdoor shower was such a blessing in helping keep the sand outside! If you rent please note this a fully stocked home! I can’t think of anything we needed that wasn’t available. Thanks Wayne & Marilyn!

About the host

Hosted by Justin & Krista Bartlett

Justin and I are third-generation owners of this family home. Our family is made up of 7 children ranging from 25 - 5 years old and our primary residence is just 10 minutes from this home! We have enjoyed many summers swimming in the waters of Lake Missaukee, sunning on the beach, and walking into town for ice cream. Our whole family loves this house and enjoys all the activities that the town and beach have to offer. This is a great vacation spot for us and we know you and your family will love it just as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

You will love our location! A three-block walk to the Town center and the largest cones in the north at the Tasty Treat. The Missaukee County Park is right behind our house and a great place for a family walk to the playground, sand volleyball courts for the teens, and the Historical Museum for the adults. Our location on the lake is shallow, warm, and sandy which makes it a great playing area for small children. The kids will love the quiet street for biking and the nearness to the park. Parents will love not having to haul anything down to the beach and watching kids swim from the comfort of the front patio. You won't find a better location in Lake City.
