Awesome Experience

Our stay at the Wizard Cottage was incredible. Jim and Jess were great hosts and made us feel like our family was a part of theirs. The house and property are fantastic. We can’t say enough good things about our experience.

About the host

Hosted by Jessie Zevalkink

My father retired up here in 2010, and there is no place he would rather be than "Gods country" He spends his time building boats, working on motor bikes, and taking care of the property. He is a mechanic, sailor, woodworker, and all around Wizard. Over the years, he build two separate units on the property. Garages where he can work on all his toys. Each unit has an apartment above it, one in which he lives in, and the other his daughter and son-in-law live in half the year.

Why they chose this property

It's the best boating base in northern Michigan. The most beautiful waterfront in the county. A huge yard for the kids to play, and dogs to run. Our home is charming, and eclectic on the inside. It is not your average rental property, and we are not your average property owners ! We love where we live, we love sharing where we live. We have made some of our greatest friends by sharing our home, and continue to have returnees year after year.

What makes this property unique

Three blocks to town, resturaunts, art galleries, groceries and the best donut shop in all of michigan. Fresh baked every morning, really true. Antiques and pieces of history decorate the cottage, making for a unique experience different from your typical vacation rental. Property managers offer their photography and sailing services.
