***Water levels across Northern Michigan’s Chain of Lakes are currently elevated. As a result, the Coast Guard has temporarily closed portions of the Indian River to all boat traffic through May 8, 2026. The private dock associated with this rental is affected by these conditions on the Crooked River and is currently unavailable. Please feel free to reach out if access to this amenity is a key part of your stay, and we’re happy to provide updates. We will know more as we head into warmer temperatures ***
Escape to Northern Michigan and enjoy the best of both worlds—peaceful privacy + easy access to the water. This charming 3BR/2BA home is tucked in a quiet, wooded setting and includes a private boat slip just 2 miles away, providing quick, convenient access to the Inland Waterway and Chain of Lakes.
✔ Private boat slip nearby (2 miles)
✔ Spacious backyard with firepit
✔ Vaulted ceilings + cozy living spaces
✔ Back porch with swing + gas grill
✔ Short drive to Petoskey, ski hills & attractions
Inside, you’ll find a bright, welcoming space designed for comfort and connection. The open living areas and vaulted ceilings create an airy feel, perfect for gathering after a day on the water, exploring nearby towns, or hitting the slopes.
Step outside to unwind in the peaceful backyard, enjoy dinner on the grill, or relax on the porch swing with your morning coffee. Evenings are best spent around the fire pit under the stars—classic Up North.
While the home offers a quiet, tucked-away feel, you’re just minutes from everything—boating, beaches, hiking trails, skiing, and the shops and restaurants of Petoskey and Harbor Springs. Not directly on the water—but with all the access at a lower price!
