Lakefront cottage with deck and firepit. Pets are welcome!

Located on the West shore of all-sports Manuka Lake, this freshly updated and fully equipped 3-bed, 2-bath home sits on half an acre of lakefront and is ready for activities year-round. Inside you will find oversized east-facing lakeview windows that provide gorgeous sunrise views and showcase the natural beauty of the lake and its wildlife. Starlink internet and smart TVs will keep you connected if you wish.

Enjoy the outdoors on the large deck, in the yard at the fire pit, or down on the beach. Lawn chairs, picnic tables, a grill, and some recreational equipment are provided. Enjoy quick access to public land and trail systems and just a 10-minute drive to downtown Gaylord.

For winter activities, the lake freezes well and is popular for ice fishing, ice skating, and snowmobiling. There are 100s of miles of readily accessible snowmobile trails in the area, both heading into Gaylord and out towards Waters and Mancelona. Multiple ski resorts are within a 40 mile radius, offering skiing, snowshoeing, tubing, and various winter activities.

For summer activities, the house comes with a dock, paddle-board, 2 adult kayaks, (child kayaks available upon request), paddle boat, life jackets, beach towels, inflatable tubes, and three fishing poles. This is a great lake for fishing! There is a public boat launch about a quarter mile north of the house. The house is equipped with AC.

We offer a quick and easy check out process - no doing all the work of the cleaner!
