Hideaway Chalet-Cozy, Comfortable, and Quite! On Canal with Large Outdoor space

Relax and enjoy our wonderful vacation home nestled on the canal of Lake Mitchell. The canal offers full boating access to Lake Mitchell, and our 240 feet of canal frontage makes for some of the best land fishing Lake Mitchell has to offer! There are 6 kayaks and 2 stand up paddle boards included with you booking.

The chalet style cottage has 3 bedrooms with queen pillow top mattresses in each for the best night sleep. The master bedroom offers a great patio space to enjoy the breeze and beautiful views of the lake while taking in a good book or just relaxing and watching the sun set. There are two full baths with a custom stand up shower upstairs and a full bathtub on the main floor.

This cottage has air-conditioning units both upstairs and down that really help cool the space during the hot summer days. Enjoy your morning coffer from the large deck that overlooks the canal and the beautiful tree lined property.

Our cottage sits on three large lots with plenty of shade from the large oak trees. There is plenty of room for yard games and a great fire pit to enjoy during your stay. Also has a Large outdoor gas grill for all your cooking needs. The extra space and large driveway is great for parking your vehicles and a boat trailer. The cottage is well equipped with 55” Smart TV in the living room and a 40” Smart TV in the master bedroom. Also included is high-speed wireless internet and a play station 4 gaming system in the living room.

The Kids Cove Hideaway! There is a cozy bonus room above the garage that has an additional queen bed and two twin beds and Air Conditioning! This space also has a large TV with a Play Station 4 gaming system. We call this space the “Kids Cove”, and it makes for a great place for the kids to gather and have their one little retreat.

Also included with our cottage are six kayaks and two stand up paddle boards for your daily water adventures. You are a short paddle from the cottage to the local sandbar where vacationers anchor their boats and play in the crystal clear sandy bottom water on a warm summer day.

You can also access Lake Mitchell from the neighborhood beach that is a short walk from the cottage front door. Another great feature just out the front door is direct access to the Manistee National Forest with miles of trails for hiking and Mt. Biking adventures. These trails are lined with some of the best black berry bushes in Northern Michigan.

The cottage had everything we needed for a short stay. We made good use of the kayaks, the spacious yard, the deck, the game room (garage), and the fire pit. The beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and TP in the bathrooms. That said, there are a few things to note: 1) The kid’s cove is only accessible by going outside and up an exterior staircase. That’s great for teens maybe, but our 10 and 7 year-olds weren’t comfortable staying there at night, plus no bathroom. 2) The main floor bedroom is pretty tight with the queen bed and no closet, which most of the time would be fine but we had someone with mobility issues. 3) Definitely more forks and spoons needed.

All the extra water toys made this a very enjoyable stay. The beautiful outdoor space was great for yard games and just hanging out. The ability to walk out the door and fish, kayak and paddle board add a great value to this property. The one piece of cool feedback is that the listing should be updated. I was prepared to leave shoes off and make sure my family did as well as the listing requested as the carpeting was new. Upon arrival, the carpeting was not new. I spent an hour cleaning the flooring and couch.

We had a great time, plenty of room for our big family of 8. Great location, loved using the yard games and kayaks (the game room was fun too) The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking each day - having the grill available was nice too.We brought our own pontoon boat, so the dock to tie up was perfect, plenty of parking and fun at the campfire each night.The house desperately needs a good clean - power washing the outside and cleaning off the deck furniture, sweeping the deck and cobwebs, washing the windows, fixing the slider door would go a long way. Thank you for the great stay!

Cute little canal cabin!

Location of this cabin is nice and quiet! It’s a nice neighborhood and area of the lake was convenient. The extra space above the garage was nice for the preteens. Beds were overall comfy and bathrooms were nicely updated! It is a cabin so keep that in mind, as this is not a brand new, sparkling clean place. A nice power wash and deep clean would be nice but it didn’t affect our stay! The boat was a nice addition and we did use it to take a little ride around the lake.

Great northern MI getaway!

Enjoyed the great location and house. Has an amazing lot on the canal with Kayaks and fishing. Nice bedrooms, comfortable beds, recently renovated bathrooms. Enjoyed use of the grill, outdoor seating and fire pit. Took several nice hikes in Manistee Forest and found a couple nice spots to eat. Bob has a great host and easy to communicate with.

Cabin on Lake Mitchell canel.

The inside of the cabin was nice. The outside of the cabin was a little dingy. It needed some cleaning and repair. We rented a pontoon boat from the owner one day during our stay, but the key to it was hidden and the owner could not be reached until the early afternoon and so we lost half of the days use of it. The grounds of the place were good and the parking was adequate.
