Palmer’s Burt Lake Cottage

Our family of four had a fantastic time at Palmer’s Cottage. The house is very spacious with tons of space to spread out. There are 3 showers (4 total bathrooms) which was super helpful after the group finished up swimming. The property is spacious and well maintained. There is a large dock and shallow water for floating and fun. There are lots of golf options within 25 minutes that was super convenient for us along with a similar distance to Mackinaw. Overall, great experience and would certainly recommend this cottage!

Great Location on Burt Lake

Roomy, open and spacious. Great house to accommodate large families or friends. Rent a boat to explore the chain of lakes. Nearby golf was excellent. 20 minutes away from Petosky restaurants and shops.
