This little apartment is very cozy and located on our lake front property with lots of privacy. Nestled into 5 acres on Long Lake in Harrison MI we call this a slice of heaven. Our lake offers excellent fishing, boating, canoeing and kayaking! We have two canoes and several kayaks and also have a paddle boat that carries 4 people. Life jackets are available for adults, however if you have small children, we recommend bringing a life jacket for them. Sporting equipment is available for everyone to share other than the pontoon is not available to guest! You also have your own gas grill, your own patio, shared fire-pit for bonfires with chairs. Our home is located on an all sports lake so bring your boat. We require letting us know in advance if you are bringing your own boat, so that we can prepare. There's a pingpong table in the garage that is shared with owners! We also have a Corn Hole with bags for use along with Ladder Golf for our guests to use. There are local walking trails, 4X Advertureland with putt putt, go-karts, ice cream, escape room etc. We have a small quaint town that offers a fruit market with fresh veggies and fruit and local Michigan products along with amazing ice cream. There are several small restaurants, one medium size grocery store with an incredible meat market and then a much larger store south of town. If you are staying with us for longer than a weekend and you want to venture out for a different change of pace we have several locations within 85-130 miles that would be worth a day trip. Mackinaw Island is 130 miles from our location. Traverse City is 85 miles, Petosky is 112 miles. Michigan is absolutely a beautiful state and our location is central located so that you can venture out and return home by evening. Doug and I love meeting our guest and making sure your stay is worth the drive. We have met the most amazing guest and look forward to meeting you also! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Garden - Gas grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - 15 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator - Smoking not allowed ### Things to do - Golf - Kayak - Table tennis - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Canoeing nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Garden - Unit size: 608 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96260000/96253500/96253418/e0c3814e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Great Cozy Cabin, in Lake Community, Private Beach,State land,Trails,Fishing,Orv Harrison - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 8.6 Excellent 20 reviews CA $126 CA $232 total includes taxes & fees Oct 20 - Oct 21 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=96253418&PinnedHotelID=96253418&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102020000/102016700/102016656/3e9ce69e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bigfoot themed cottage.
