Situated along the tranquil shores of Elk River, as it flows to Elk Lake, this charming blue cottage is the perfect setting for your next getaway. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and convenient main floor laundry, this home is ideal for a relaxing stay.
Upstairs, the primary suite boasts a king-sized bed, a private bath, an office nook, and a walk-in closet. The two downstairs bedrooms include another king-sized bed and a cozy queen. The updated kitchen features counter seating, a full dining area, and a beverage cooler—perfect for entertaining! Floor-to-ceiling windows showcase stunning lake views, creating a bright and spacious feel throughout the home.
Step outside to enjoy the large backyard that leads down to the water. While there’s no beach access, you can take full advantage of the NEW dock for lake activities. Use the provided kayaks or paddleboards to explore the beauty of Elk River and the surrounding area. Please note that access to the water is by dock only—there is no walk-in beach. However, the town’s beach and marina offer convenient options, including boat rentals for exploring the Chain of Lakes.
Docking your own boat at our property can be challenging due to shallow waters and surrounding logs. Feel free to reach out to the owner for additional information or any questions about water access.
Conveniently located just 15 minutes from Flintfields Horse Park and 25 minutes from downtown Traverse City, this cottage is also a short bike ride to charming downtown Elk Rapids. Explore local breweries, wineries, and a variety of water activities—all nearby!
Located in Elk Rapids, this vacation home is on the waterfront. While the natural beauty of Lake Michigan and Torch Lake can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Grand Traverse Resort Golf Course.
Guntzviller's Spirit of the Woods Museum and Music House Museum are also worth visiting. Jet skiing, kayaking, and water skiing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.
