About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Kayaks! PONTOON BOAT! gameroom! FLOATING AQUA-PLAY-MAT! Pool table.

- And as always, we never charge Host, Cleaning, Pet (up to two dogs), or Extra Guest fees!

This 2000 sq ft, 4 bedroom, 2 bath, lodge-style home is nestled amidst towering hardwoods and features fantastic views of Cedar Lake. Knotty pine, log beams, ceramic tile and a cozy fireplace adorn the interior. Watch the wildlife roam through the yard on your 100' of private *frontage on Cedar Lake. The home is also designed with family fun in mind with separate areas for adults and little ones alike.

Cedar Lake is a beautiful, peaceful No Wake fishing lake so it's perfect for those morning coffee kayak trips, fishing with the family or just being plain lazy. Off the beaten path yet right in the center of one of Northern Michigan's most desired vacation destination spots. You're only minutes from such areas as Empire, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor and Old Mission.

Cedar Lake Lodge is open all year long and offers a wide variety of activities for every season.

Home includes the use of a **free pontoon boat w/10 gal free fuel, (Memorial week til early October), Floating Aqua-Play-Mat (Memorial Week thru Labor Day Week), kayaks (May 1st til Nov 1st), and row boat(April 1st til Nov 15th), dock (Mid-May til Nov 1st).

- Fireplace available Thanksgiving - April 1st.

- For our winter guests we recommend bringing an all-wheel-drive vehicle or at the very least a front wheel drive with good snow tires.

*Frontage is typical northern Michigan soft sediment (mucky) bottom, great for fishing, but definitely not sandy!

**As a FREE bonus to our guests in our summer months, we offer you the use of one of a pontoon boats. They are nothing special. They are clean and well maintained. They range in size from 18-24ft. They range in age from 20-30 years old w/2stroke motors ranging from 25 - 35 hp. While these boats may not fulfill the boating dreams of some people, they are perfect for a sunset cruise or a family fishing outing. We even supply you with 10 gallons of pre-mixed gasoline!. To get the most enjoyment from these boats it is recommended that person with a knowledge of boating and two stroke motors be involved operating them. If not we do have full instructions, and technical assistance available if necessary. See photo of typical pontoon boat.

---- Also we provide a starter supply of paper/soap products which should be enough for a typical 2 night stay for smaller groups of 2 - 4 people. For a complete list of "what is provided" and "things to bring", check out "Using the property”, on your “My Trip” page.

- There are neighbors, so no parties or events.
