Perfect getaway
This was the perfect up north cabin for that getaway that you or your family is looking for. You are right on Clam lake, who wouldn’t want to wake up on the beautiful water! The views are breathtaking and the cabin has everything you and or your family could need. I really enjoyed my stay and meeting the owner Mike was a delight, He was very kind and easier to talk to! I would recommend this location for anyone wanting that true up north experience!

6th Summer Vacation and counting!
This was our 6th year staying at this cute cottage for our summer vacation. Great location on Clam Lake. We bring our pontoon each year so we can enjoy the lakes and Grass River. My favorite part of the cottage is the screened in porch. I enjoy drinking my morning coffee every morning overlooking the lake. This cottage is also a short distance to golf in Bellaire or shopping in Alden. Make sure to checkout the sunset from Dockside just down the road, beautiful.

The perfect vacation
Two very enjoyable weeks watching the sun raise over the water and trees each morning and the great sunsets each night. Fun at the beach and great fishing! We can't wait until next year!

About the host

Hosted by Michael T Lambert

Host profile image
I grew up spending summers on Torch Lake around the corner from Clam Lake. My family moved fulltime to Petoskey in 1985. I have always loved the chain-of-lakes for the natural beauty and recreational opportunities.

Why they chose this property

The cabin's privacy and location on Clam Lake made it an opportunity too good to pass up. I intend to pass on the property to my children.

What makes this property unique

The cottage was built in the 1950s by a company known for building cottages with character in the area. I was drawn by the wood paneling, screened porch and covered boat slip.
