This cottage offers 2,400 sqft spread over 3 floors including a rare lakefront walkout on Manistee Lake. We are positioned on the south side of the lake to take in the breathtaking sunrise and sunsets.
The elevated deck AND patio area are very unique for Manistee Lake or most Northern MI cottage lake homes. Plenty of area for multiple family members to relax in chaise lounge chairs or Adirondack chairs in the sand pit or swivel chairs, outdoor couch and 4 person high top on the upper deck level.
There are 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The upstairs bedroom features a queen and twin bed. The main floor bedroom has a queen bed. The walkout features a queen bedroom and a loft area with a full bed and twin bunkbeds.
The cottage is conveniently located 12 minutes northeast of Kalkaska and within a few miles of snowmobile, side by side and ATV trails while providing all sports lake access. There is a boat launch a few hundred yards away at the state park yet cottage is located on a very private dead end street.
The lake has a sandy bottom and very clear to the last dock section. There are several different species of fish (we have yanked 18" pikes out) and depths range from 12 to 18 feet deep yet plenty deep for renters to bring in their own or rented boat for tubing, fishing or simple boat trolling cruises (there are eagle nests on the northern edge of the lake). Manistee Lake offers picturesque sunsets that cannot be missed especially from a boat view.
