Waterfront log home on Lake Bellaire. Pet friendly. Fireplace, dock. dog ok

This lovely log home on Lake Bellaire offers a peaceful escape, with the lake sparkling beautifully amid northwest Michigan’s gorgeous countryside. Loons Landing comfortably welcomes up to six guests with its three cozy bedrooms and a friendly bathroom.

Inside, you'll find a well-equipped open-concept kitchen that seamlessly connects to the inviting living and dining areas, making meal prep and gathering together a breeze. Decorated with charming "Up North" touches, this Northern Michigan retreat exudes warmth and character. The living room, featuring a cozy gas fireplace, is perfect for relaxing and unwinding.

Step outside onto the welcoming covered porch to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Use the provided charcoal grill as you listen to the gentle calls of loons over the water. In the summer, gather around the fire pit, enjoy a picnic at the table, or have fun with the tree swing—there's plenty to enjoy! A lovely boardwalk winds through the wetland to reach the water, adding to the rustic charm.

Lake Bellaire sits just east of Lake Michigan, offering all-sport fun with swimming, boating, kayaking, water-skiing, fishing, and more. As part of the Elk River Watershed Chain of Lakes, it’s known as a true "Fisherman’s Paradise.”

Plus, it’s a simple drive to charming towns like Alden and Bellaire, where you can enjoy delicious meals, pick up groceries, or browse unique local shops around the lakes.

Your well-mannered dog is welcome.

Peaceful cozy cabin by the lake

Cute, clean, cozy, quiet and very comfortable cabin. The cabin has everything one might need. We enjoyed the lake, reading on the porch and visiting Bellaire and Alden. Great communication with the property management co. Definitely reccommend..

Charming cottage

We recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming wood cottage near the lake, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the professional management team made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of our stay. The cottage itself is a delightful retreat, beautifully crafted with rustic wood interiors that create a warm and cozy atmosphere. The views of the lake were simply breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for our morning coffee and evening relaxation. The location is ideal for nature lovers, with plenty of opportunities for hiking, fishing, and kayaking just a stone’s throw away. We took advantage of the nearby trails and spent hours exploring the serene surroundings. Inside, the cottage was equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living area was perfect for unwinding after a day of adventure. Overall, our stay at this wood cottage was nothing short of magical. The combination of stunning natural beauty, a well-maintained property, and exceptional management made for an unforgettable experience. We are already planning our return visit! Thank you for an amazing getaway!

Very nice location and cabin. In the wood and on the water. Perfect place for quite and relaxation and close enough to town for fun and good food. Our stay would have been better if the dock had been put out. Only complaint is that the water pressure in the shower was so low it barely rinsed the soap off.

Great Stay!

Based on last years reviews I was expecting this to not be very clean but liked that we could bring our dog. We had zero complaints about how clean it was so were pleasantly surprised. Maybe new housekeeping since last year. Other reviews really helped with understanding the dock area and boardwalk so that was as expected. We had a great stay!

Beautiful location

The cabin was cute and the location was nice. The cabin needs a deep clean and a few repairs. Though on a lake, there is no where to swim from the waters edge. Grand kids were too scared to go in from the dock. Very disappointed about that.

Cozy Cottage

The cottage is cute and cozy, very rustic feeling. We were looking forward to being on the lake but unfortunately is is not a good area to swim. The water is extremely mucky and we wish this was put in information about cottage. There could also be some updates with the TV. Was not set up properly for use and no way to stream anything. Only a vcr and dvd player with no movies provided to use. Great place to stay is you wanna see the beautiful lake but not go in. We also appreciated that this cottage was pet friendly and close to downtown Bellaire.

Great location!

We enjoyed the location the most, halfway between downtown Bellaire and Dockside in Torch. I’ll echo the previous reviews that the the cabin was not as tidy as the other places we stay on our yearly visits to Bellaire. It wasn’t dirty but could use a good cleaning under and around furniture, under the beds and have dog hair vacuumed off furniture. If you are looking for a rustic up north vacation, this would be great for you!

June 2022 stay

We came up with our four kids and two dogs. We loved the log cabin and it had everything we needed. The boat dock was the only disappointment being that it was functioning at the time but we did get communication about that beforehand. Torch lake was very close by and we used that lake to boat every day. There was a launch two house to the left that we used for our jet skis. The nightly bonfires and peaceful mornings were our favorite. Although the ice cream in town was phenomenal and is a must for every visit. All in all we loved it!!!

October weekend

We spent the weekend with 2 other couples to relax, visit the brewery, see the colors, and visit the area. The cabin was a great location and was comfortable overall. The walk to the lake was beautiful and it was a nice quiet area. The beds were a little soft for our group but might be great for others. The coffee pot was a bit slow brewing for us....we were all coffee drinkers and needed our morning java. Overall, we would stay again.

Overall the cabin was exactly what I expected and the photos matched the cabin. The interior/exterior was a little dusty. The kitchen and bathroom were very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Several of the light bulbs were burned out but property was prompted in bringing more. The path to the lake was a bit of a hike, but the new dock was nice to take in the pretty view of the lake. I would stay again, as it was a restful and peaceful vacation.

Cozy Cabin

We love the area and stay every summer! We especially love that this property was pet friendly. Weather was beautiful and the cottage was just as described. A few things need improvement/TLC (beds dip a bit, cleaning needs to be more detailed, bring trash bags as there weren’t any, and trash container at road was full from the previous occupants), but we had a great time and enjoyed our stay! This is a rustic cozy cabin in the woods that had a lot to offer. Didn’t take advantage of the grill or kayak but love that they have games and such for all to enjoy. We are lucky to have people like this that offer us to have the experience of living the “lake life” through rental! Thank you Loon’s Landing owners! ♥️
