About this property

Cozy Burt Lake Waterfront Cottage

Located on the west side of Burt Lake, one of the most beautiful and biggest lakes in the state, I'm sure our cottage will provide wonderful place for the that vacation you deserve. The cottage shares over 300 feet of waterfront, a fire pit, and swimming dock for you and your family to enjoy. Or just sit take in the view of the lake 100 feet off the edge of the deck.

Children and adults love to swim in the hardpacked sandy shoreline extending out over 200 feet before gradually dropping off into crystal clear water.

Wood is provided for the shared fire pit (wood is provided), dock, mooring anchor for your boat and plenty of space to relax and enjoy your stay. There is a large shared grassy area with a swing set and basketball hoop - a fun place to meet and mingle with new people. For the fisherman, the association also maintains a fish cleaning shed.

Many of our clients have been renting from us for over 20 years and even come from as far away as Pennsylvania.

Conveniently located between Indian River and Alanson on the waterfront of Burt Lake near the mouth of the Crooked River (well known as an excellent fishing hole). Enjoy the 45 miles of northern Michigan's Inland Waterway (connecting 5 lakes) extending from Pickerel Lake to Lake Huron. Just minutes from Mackinaw City, Petoskey and Harbor Springs.

PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU WILL BE BRINGING YOUR OWN WATERCRAFT SO WE CAN PROVIDE YOU THE PROPER INFORMATION FOR YOUR STAY.

Note: Guests need to bring paper products for kitchen and bath, bed linens (pillows, blankets, spreads are provided). A detailed list of additional items will be provided.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Shelenberger

Host profile image
Tom & Nancy love Michigan living! Nancy was born and raised in Michigan. Tom relocated from Pennsylvania more than 30 years ago. They both enjoy volleyball, golf, pickleball and boating.

Why they chose this property

Burt Lake has been part of Nancy's life for almost 20 years. Burt Lake has always been her favorite spot to bring her family to enjoy their summer vacations year after year. Tom & Nancy decided to purchase this cozy cottage because of the great location and the warm and friendly atmosphere. They plan on bringing up their grand kids for many years to come.

What makes this property unique

The location of the cottage allows us to do many of our favorite activities without having to travel long distances. There is a Rails to Trials bike riding trial in Indian River that we have ridden to Wolverine and back (you can ride all the way to Gaylord). Traveling the inland waterway is a wonderful way to spend a summer day. Visit Crooked Lake, Burt Lake and Mullett Lake all in one day. You can even continue on through Cheyboygan onto Lake Huron and visit Mackinac Island. The water is clean and clear and has a very nice sandy bottom in most areas. You can take a short 40 minute drive to the Mackinaw Bridge and the ferries to the Island. We are also just 30 minutes to Petoskey and 15 minutes from Harbor Springs. The layout of the property is very conducive to family fun. The community common area is a great way to mingle and meet new people. The shoreline is very flat, with a very nice day dock for your boat. Come and enjoy days on end of boating fun!
