About this property

Long Lake Cottage | Family + Pets | Dock + Playset

🌊 Private Sandy Lake Access
🏡 Family & Pet Friendly Stay
🔥 Fire Pit for Cozy Evenings
🍳 Fully Equipped Kitchen
📍 15 Mins to Traverse City

Hosted by Catered Stays Rentals, this lakefront cottage offers serene water views and a layout designed for families and friends to gather. Guests can enjoy swimming just steps from the door, relax around the fire pit at night, and explore all that Traverse City has to offer just minutes away.

Wake up to peaceful mornings on Long Lake. This home comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests with an open-concept layout that makes gathering easy and enjoyable. The dining area features a large hickory table with seating for everyone, set beside windows overlooking the lake.

After a day of swimming, local adventures, or wine touring, unwind in cozy seating areas or step outside to roast marshmallows by the fire pit. With thoughtful amenities, direct lakefront access, and proximity to Traverse City, this Long Lake cottage is the perfect base for both relaxation and exploration.

Please be aware that this is a pet-friendly rental. Though we have an exceptional cleaning team, folks with severe allergies or health conditions that may be related to animals should consider renting elsewhere, as even with thorough cleaning, we cannot guarantee non-reaction. Most folks with this severe level of allergies are aware of this risk in renting any home that allows pets.

Great location close to Traverse City but very secluded and quiet on a private road! Large windows overlooking the beautiful lakefront with all the amenities of home if you chose to dine in.
