You won't be disappointed in the well-known local golf courses -- West Branch Country Club, The Dream, and The Nightmare -- which are within a 25 minute drive from the cottage. Plenty of ORV trails around for dirt bike, ATV, side-by-side, and snowmobile riding. Lake Ogemaw is regularly stocked with bass and walleye making it some of the best fishing around. There are also great opportunities for deer hunting on state land nearby. The cottage is across the street from the Rifle River High Banks Canoe Launch for your own personal canoe/tubing trips as well as fly fishing. If you're looking for professional canoe/tubing livery -- Troll Landing, Whites, and River View are close by. You can find whatever you're looking for near beautiful Lake Ogemaw!

Great Vacation!

We had an excellent stay here. There were 4 adults and one toddler . Plenty of room. House is well equipped. We rented a pontoon boat for the week from Lake Ogemaw Marina which is less than a block away so it was very easy and convenient. The house had both paddle boards and kayaks to use. The beach area is huge and very nice. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Warm and Welcoming

We had beautiful weather! I am sure Pete made that happen. The beach was nice and everyone we came upon was very friendly. People who do rent should be aware the beach and beach toys are shared with the neighbor, who is the owner, but they are very nice and I imagine during the week that wouldn't be an issue. Kayaks and paddle boards are in great condition and we were able to rent a boat from the friendly marina down the road and were able to dock it right at the house! House is clean and roomy. Bedrooms on the smaller side, but why would you ever be in them. So much space on the porches and outside to hang out as well as in the basement which is nice and cool. Oh, and bikes too! We took a bike ride around the entire lake. A nice little journey.
