About this property

Pickerel Lake - Lakefront Log Cabin

Lakefront Log Cabin located on Pickerel Lake. One bedroom cabin (queen bed) with a sleeping loft upstairs(3 twin beds). Authenic log cabin that has been extensively remodeled and updated. The entire interior is log and knotty pine with beautiful fieldstone fireplace. Fully equipped kitchen and bathroom have recently been updated. The crystal clear lake water with sandy bottom in front of our cabin is shallow, with hard packed sand bottom with a gentle slope(no-drop off). Perfect for swimming and wading.

Beach, picnic table, campfire pit, and eighty foot dock included. Boat rentals available from local marinas, on the waterway, or bring your own boat and launch from the near by public launch. Excellent swimming, fishing(bass, walleye, pike), and boating on 1100 acre Pickerel Lake. Part of the famous inland waterway which connects to Crooked Lake, Burt Lake and Mullet Lake.

Located just a few miles east of downtown Petoskey and only minutes away from all the other varied attractions in this beautiful area of northwest Michigan. The Petoskey/Harbor Springs area includes miles of bike and rollerblade trails, exceptional golf, and several of the States most beautiful beaches.

Pickerel Lake fun

Upon arrival there is a musty smell and felt damp inside. Probably could use a dehumidifier. It was a colder week for our stay, once the furnace was turned on, that helped a lot. The cabin is what it shows in the pictures. Coffee drinkers beware, it will take a loooonggg time for coffee to brew! Haha. The lake is beautiful, water was warm enough for us and we enjoyed taking our boat out. Our big issue is the kitchen sink drain. As soon as water was turned on the drain backs up. It will drain slowly. I contacted the property owner and he was obviously aware of the issue, as he said there was a plunger under the sink. We plunged a lot and it never fixed the issue, hubby said it is more than just a clogged drain, probably needs a plumber. This was a huge disappointment since you expect a working sink in a kitchen. Made washing dishes a pain (and yes, after the first night we used paper plates, but still had pans,bowls, glasses and cups) as well as trying to rinse veggies and such. Oh, and the kitchen faucet had a huge leak. Thank God my husband is handy and he fixed that. I even took a picture for the memory! 😁 Overall, aside from the sink issues which hopefully the host will call a plumber and get that fixed....it was a great place. Located just down the road from the boat launch and close to the waterway to crooked lake. Nice fire pit. Gas and charcoal grill and a good yard for yard games. Great memories were made this past week.

Up north cottage

This was a nice cottage in a great location! We enjoyed being very close to Petoskey, Harbor, Springs, Indian river, and Mackinac. There were fireworks on the Fourth of July in Petoskey and Harbor Springs, that you could see pretty much anywhere from a good bay location. The highlight of the cottage is definitely the lake outback and the property leading up to it. The cottage itself is nice and pretty cute. We enjoyed the rustic look and knotty pine interior. The cottage had most everything we needed and was comfortable. Some of the downsides to the cottage itself are: no dishwasher, no central air just one window unit, the bathroom seemed a little small and kind of dirty. A great perk was having a washer and dryer though. Overall, our family had a great time and found ourselves just relaxing by the water, enjoying fishing, swimming, boating, and everything else the area had to offer when we were done with our lake time.
