About The Owner

Paul & Angie. We love the sun, water, and snow of Kalkaska and Log Lake.

The Owner purchased this cottage in 2004
Why The Owner chose Kalkaska

We chose to buy this cottage in Kalkaska for our family weekend vacations Up North. We love to snowmobile and ski in the Winter. We love to kayak and swim in the lake in the Summer. It is the perfect location for us because we like the proximity to Traverse City for shopping and Downtown events like the Cherry Festival, but we also like the secluded small lake environment to relax. No jet skis or water skiers to worry about when the kids are out in the lake swimming. We love the area and hope to retire here in the future.

Relaxing Getaway

4 of 5
Submitted: July 23, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Our stay at this home was very nice.It is all is is is stated. Log Lake is very calm and peaceful and a joy to kayak on. Some of the neighbors and campers up the way were a bit noisy at times , but never late into the evening(the local bullfrogs were noisier than them!)
The location was great also as we made many day/and night trips to all points surrounding(Traverse City, Casino, Belair, Torch Lake, Elk Rapids etc.) all just short distances.
The home itself was very comfortable with ceiling fans in all rooms to keep us cool in 80 plus temps.......would recommend it to anybody, we're an older couple, but marveled at what a great place this would be for kids .....

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS

5 of 5
Submitted: September 2, 2011 Stayed: August 2011
What a beautiful place for a nice, relaxing gateaway at a reasonable price. The house was very clean and well maintained. The owner is super nice and helpful. The kids had such a wonderful time swimming, fishing (my husband caught a couple of nice ones too), roasting marshmellows, catching frogs and turtles, building sand castles. It was a wonderful place to sit and relax but yet close enough for activities like the casino, farm market, indoor waterpark etc. Would highly recommend. Hope to be back next year. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Perfect Getaway!!!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 27, 2011 Stayed: August 2011
I was looking for a place for our family to truly relax and I found it here! Beautiful house, super clean, great location and close to lots of activities! The lake was small and peaceful, loved kayaking daily and watching the kids enjoy the water trampoline. The girls fed the fish daily and loved watching the blue heron fish right near the dock. The water is clean and clear and the bottom is sandy! I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing vacation! Thank you so much for opening up your lovely home! We will be back next summer for sure!!!
