About Cheryl Rohrkemper

We are a family of 4 with 2 grown children Michael and Nicole. We have been enjoying the cottage and golf since 2000, when it was owned by friends of ours.

Cheryl Rohrkemper purchased this house in 2004
Why Cheryl Rohrkemper chose Gaylord

The location of our home is perfect to visit many locations in Northern Michigan including Mackinaw, Petosky, Charlevoix and Traverse City. We are a family of golfers and there are many golf course within 30 minutes of the cottage.

What makes this house unique

There is a heated outdoor community pool. An easy walk around the lake is 3 miles. We can snowmobile right outside the front door to trails and skiing is close by at Boyne Mountain and Treetops.

Our home is 2700 sf which is roomy for even 10 people!

The best feature for me is the 60' balcony overlooking the lake!

Just what we were looking for!

Our week on this private lake was just wonderful. We were looking for a week of complete downtime, but this location is great for day trips to Macinaw, Traverse City, Petosky, etc. The cottage is very clean and roomy. We only had the four of us, but could easily have accomodated 10. The owner was prompt in answering any questions and following up on our stay. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cottage - would even consider renting again.

Owner's Response: We appreciate good family renters like the Sunbathers! Thank you for staying with us. Anyone can post pictures on facebook. If you have some I would love to see them.

This was a wonderful place. All information we received was accurate and we did not lack for one single thing. The setting was serene and tranquil and ideal for really relaxing. We would HIGHLY recommend for any group. TV;s in each bedroom, plus upstairs and downstairs so if you didn't like what was on in one place, just go to another!

My sons, their families and I spent a week at this cottage on Lake Arrowhead. The cottage was very clean and had everything one could want. The layout was perfect for the 9 of us. The boys especially enjoyed the fishing boat, kayaks and paddle boat. We visited some of the State Park beaches and also a few enjoyed the horseback riding which was close by. Everyone voted that we should do this again! The owners were exceptional in assisting in any way they could. Thanks Cheryl!
Owner's Response: We welcome more families to be our guests! Hope to see you all back soon!
