Cottage with lake views, private dock & firepit - near public boat launch

Walloon Lake Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Welcome to your summer lake cottage on the West Arm of Walloon Lake! This home is just 30 feet from the lake and has a nice yard. Enjoy the lake views from the private dock or the outdoor firepit. This is the perfect place to bring your boat; a public launch is just a mile away. The knotty pine ceilings and rustic furniture give the sense of a true 'Up North' experience. You'll fall in love with the cozy setting as you stare out onto the water.

Walloon Lake is steps from the cottage and is ideal for swimming, boating, kayaking, etc. Children will enjoy the gradual drop-off into the water and the sandy bottom. US 131 is nearby and provides convenient access to Petoskey, Boyne City, and Charlevoix. Shopping, dining, and golf are all within a short driving distance.

Cottage with lake views, private dock & firepit - near public boat launch Reviews

Great place that is family friendly

We stayed for two weeks, one with two children and a couple of grandchildren, and the second week just the two of us. We stayed for one week last year and returned this time for two weeks. The new stairs and railing down to the lake are VERY nice and safe! We spent a lot of time on the dock and the deck. The cottage has most of the essentials that make for a pleasant stay. I read another book from the cottage and was impressed again with the reading material available. After coming to Walloon for over 60 years, it is a welcome reminder of the past in the area. A great time was had by all and we made sure that the place was as clean as if it was our own cottage.

The place had a nice cottage feel to it. Just what we were looking for.

We loved the location on the lake, the view, the yard, everything. We would definitely stay here again.

Tolle Lage

Wir hatten eine großartige Woche am Walloon Lake. Das Cottage ist etwas „rusty“ aber gut aufgeteilt, sauber und hat eine außergewöhnlich gute Lage. Der See und die Umgebung sind traumhaft.
