This darling cabin was comfy inside, beautiful outside and close to so many beautiful places to visit! This is a wonderful place to relax and reenergize!
The cottage was everything we needed for a short stay. The location was both central to downtown and far enough from downtown to be absolutely stunning.
Perfect little cabin for a weekend get away. Very easy to find, has everything a couple could need for a weekend get away. Driveway was a little hard to enter but other than that, we had no complaints.
We came to stay for our anniversary weekend and we had a great time! The place was perfect for us to stay in and play board games and spend some quality time together. Also, you're only two minutes away from Moomers ice cream, bonus!!
It was exactly as described. Great view and location was near everything we wanted to do. The check in/check out process was very easy. Would definitely recommend.
The house became home base for short area adventures.. especially Sleeping Bears National Lakeshore.. a real national treasure. The home exceeded expectations and the owners were very responsive and communicative.
My wife and I had a very relaxing and enjoyable few days at this cabin.
We would like to thank the owners for taking the time to communicate with us and making this a very enjoyable vacation.
If and when we make it to Traverse City again, we will definitely use this VRBO listing.
Thanks again.
Cute and cozy cabin, beautiful location and views. Only 10 minutes from town. Easy to communicate with our host. No issues.

About the host
Hosted by Katie Kinney
My husband, Matt & I are both natives of Traverse City, and have been VRBO hosts since the spring of 2020. The best part of being hosts is being able to be part of bringing guests to a place we love, so they can also enjoy all that Traverse City and the surrounding areas have to offer.
Why they chose this property
This little hide-away, tucked next to Huellmantel Lake, has always been a favorite spot of ours...a little slice of heaven, secluded enough for a private getaway, but close enough for a quick trip to Traverse City, Glen Arbor, Interlochen, and countless other local hotspots - a true jumping off point for local recreation & entertainment!
What makes this property unique
A stay at Huellmantel Lake Cabin is a vacation in itself just enjoying the lake view from the porch or campfire, or venturing out for local hiking and recreation, sight-seeing, or wine tours.
